Devils And Details And Discovery
How much of this post can we create from our phone and what are the results of all those details?
How much of this post can we create from our phone and what are the results of all those details?
Three new images reflect different aspects of our current condition.
Restrained Flight is a new image for sale
Even the less than perfect images have some use
Not all ideas are good ones. Fortunately, we can always back up and start over.
We take the experimental series outdoors and apply the multiple processing concept to architectural elements.
Some photos were shot in a window. Others were shot along a wall. The different processing sets them worlds apart.
This has been a very productive year and we have the video to show it
Pashur House brings his award-winning bodypaint to Indianapolis and we have a wonderful time being spooky
Horst frequently said that friends make the best subjects and Katherine Reiling proves why the philosophy holds true.
Rankin/Bass got it all wrong. We've uncovered the real origin story if Jolly Old St. Nick and his dear wife
As we drool over the features available in new cameras and consider making the plunge into video, we look back at the early days of digital photography and remember how different it was.
Having grown sick and tired of external entities attempting to dictate the what, where, why, when, and how of personal expression, we created a set of images simply as a way to blow off steam and we don't care what you think of them or if they offend you.
The garden at a local wedding venue turned out to be the perfect place to capture some rather creepy looking candelabra. This garden of candlelight seems to be perfectly fit for the month of October.
A recent shoot gave us the opportunity to make a comparison to a shoot with the same model under similar circumstances five years ago. Take a look as she lets us into her personal life as we revisit My Space.
Even as the remnants of Hurrican Harvey pound the Gulf coast, these photos remind us that water cleans, sweeps away the dirt and debris, and allows us to start new.
We turned the kids' outdoor playtime into an opportunity to study motion and how that affects our perception of the world. Take a look at this unique gallery that is different from the established norm.
We took a trip to the Indiana State Fair and while we didn't find any healthy food we did manage to take a few pictures.
Going along for the ride with a camera sticking out the window yield some interesting shots along the way. Take a moment to enjoy.
Looking at the lawn that is our culture we find ourselves in severe need of maintenance. Time to cut the grass and clean things up.
Small-town America once seemed idyllic and peaceful but small towns have declined and are no longer attractive.
How are you spending your free time? We have some suggestions that might just make you a bit smarter.
Being diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes is scary, especially when there's no choice but to dine out. Are there places I can safely eat? Yes, there are.
We are announcing a new service exclusively for the victims of the #AHCA recently passed by Congress
A simple enough response to a disturbing situation. #TuesdayMotivation to push us through the rest of the week.

All-District Band Concert March 1
February 18, 2020 — Over 350 students in grades 5-12 are gearing up for the biggest band event of the year. The Westonka All-District Band Concert will be held Sunday, March 1, at 2 p.m. in the Mound Westonka High School gym.
The program will include fifth-grade band, sixth-grade band, seventh-grade band, Concert Band, Symphonic Band, Wind Ensemble and Jazz Band. At this special concert, the audience will get to hear the music progress from the simplicity of first-year band students' notes to a challenging and inspiring Wind Ensemble performance.
"We will end the program with all the bands performing at once," said band director Gretchen Chilson. "If you haven't witnessed this phenomenon, you're in for a treat!"
The doors open at 12:30 p.m. for a silent auction featuring a wide variety of items for the entire family. The Grandview Middle School and MWHS jazz bands will provide entertainment as attendees look through the auction items. Donations will be taken for admission at the door.
As is tradition, the MWHS bands will play "fun" music that's accessible to their young audience. Concert Band will be performing the powerful "Incantation and Ritual" and the pop tune "Feel It Still." Symphonic Band will be playing "High Water Mark" (the story of a Civil War battle) and the cowboy music from "The Magnificent Seven." Wind Ensemble will be performing "Crimebusters," which includes popular themes from television crime dramas. They'll also be reprising their performance of the spooky "Haunted Carousel."
The fifth-grade band is performing "Starsplitter Fanfare" by Brian Balmages, about supernovas in outer space, and "Expedition" by Timothy Johnson, about Zebulon Pike's attempt to find the headwaters of the Mississippi. The sixth-grade band is performing "Dragon Slayer" by Rob Grice and "The Tempest" by Robert W. Smith, meant to portray the experience of being in a hurricane.
The seventh-grade band is performing "Falcon Fanfare" by Brian Balmages, which was written as celebration of Dacula, Georgia's 100th anniversary. Their second piece is "The Magic of Harry Potter" and features melodies from the movies.
"Each year this huge event is a success, and a new group of fifth-grade families becomes a part of this wonderful tradition," said Chilson. "We owe a huge thanks to our band boosters and to business donors who make the silent auction possible. We are thrilled to have so much support from our local community!"

Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 44852
improved colour selection palette
Last modified: 2013-08-07 15:40:53 UTC
I have created a new colour selection file (.soc file) which is a big
improvement on the default file. It is designed with co-ordinated colours and
to print well.
This file is designed to work with writer, as different apps (e.g. draw) use
different a dialogue which arranges the colours in a different order. I think
it would be better if all apps used the same dialogue for consistency.
Created attachment 23708 [details]
colours arranged in 10 percent steps
Changing Component to progress issue. Probably a duplicate of many palette

Recent reviews
Fabulous 8.8 From 373 reviews
Very good hotel, disappointing that our room was not ready on arrival. Insufficient towels and bedding in room. Staff excellent and rectified situation quickly. Ideal location for the Central Railway Station. Very comfortable bed and bedding.
We are an elderly couple who found the hotel very convenient to the railway line, thus enabling us to explore Vienna with our three day pass.
The room was okay and location is okay as well. This is particularly referring to the front desk female staff (name unknown as she covered her name tag with jacket collar) that on shift in the morning of 22 Apr 2019. She was just impolite and rude.. We having a relatively late flight, would like to try our luck of getting a late checkout until 1pm ish (original check out time is 12pm) so went to the front desk to ask. It would be perfectly fine if she just turned us down politely as it is totally understandable and we were just trying our luck. She was rude as she just showed us a black and bored face and said "nothing is free! You pay 25 euro then u get to stay till 3pm, so you want?!" We were pissed off, then when we went outside and came back to pick our luggage, again she was not helping and just pointed us the direction and asked us go find our luggages ourselves. Having said that, the other guy that worked at front desk the same morning was very nice, it was just the lady's problem.
Good hotel in a good location. Direct train from airport to Vienna central station which is a 5 min walk away from hotel. Metro is also really close and can get quick to the centre. Really comfy bed and warm room. Only not so good thing is that you won't get good value for money, but it is the same in all Vienna hotels.
Fantastic stay at the hotel. It was clean, friendly and in a great location with links to public transport. If I go to Vienna again, I'm definitely staying here.

He Said if I was Trying to Punish Myself I Should Have Sliced Deeper
The scars on my legs, even after two years, are still healing. I'm still waiting for the marks to go away. Back then, when they were fresh, he'd see the cuts and say if I was trying to punish myself I should have sliced deeper.
I can't tell you exactly when he started to change. I have an idea, a rough time frame, but I can't pinpoint the exact time because the shift wasn't sudden and happened gradually.
Beginning of the relationship:
We met in 2008. I was 16 years old. We had class together. I still remember the first day I walked into the room. I was late and he was already seated. We locked eyes but I don't remember ever really trying to speak to him again after that. I don't think I even had interest in him at first or found him attractive. There was nothing compelling about him till we spoke. I guess all they say about mental connection is true because it was after our first conversation I was intrigued. After school that night I went home and searched him on Facebook but for some reason he was already on my friends list so I went ahead and messaged him. We added each other that night on MSN and it started from there.
By 2010 we were in a relationship. In those two years after meeting we built a friendship. I don't think at ages 15 and 16 you really take relationships seriously anyway so when we were a little older and when we thought we were mature enough, we decided to give an official, committed relationship a shot. At first it was light, it was fun, it was innocent and we enjoyed each other. I looked forward to the messages after class on MSN and I waited for his text messages before I went to bed. We talked about everything. I couldn't wait to get to school to see him or to run into him in the hallways. He wanted to understand why I did the things I did and why I said what I said. His approach was different and he seemed to genuinely care. So over some time trust was built and I opened up.
He didn't just love my light, he listened to all that was dark and it felt like he could help me heal. Looking back now I don't know if I was in love with him or the idea that someone could look past all I felt about me was messed up. No doubt this person became my best friend before it went sour. I needed someone to listen and I needed to feel like someone would stay. He was stable; whether or not deep down I was in love with him, I kept him. I've never had stability before.
This new relationship started and I felt like God was finally bringing something positive into my life. I felt like I was always dealt the worst hand. Don't get me wrong; I knew I had many things to be grateful for. I had received an ample amount of blessings and amazing people to share these things with but there were also so many hardships I couldn't quite grasp or make sense of its reason for happening.
I had 1001 walls built and he tried to knock all of these down. I didn't want to let anyone in because I didn't need anyone. My mentality was, "I had gotten this far without anyone and I don't need someone starting now." I tried over and over and over again to push him away but he didn't budge. He stayed, he tried, he wanted to be there, he wanted to learn my triggers and he wanted me to get to better a place. He said he wanted me to succeed and he wanted to take care of me. Illusion.
He didn't understand why I didn't fully enjoy sex. He started to take it personally that I would never have an orgasm with him, that I couldn't look him in the eyes or that when he tried to push his fingers in me I would push his hands away. My favourite position was doggie style and not because I enjoyed lying on my stomach or because I was lazy. I couldn't handle intimacy. I was frustrated with myself too. My internal battle was affecting what I was trying to grow with this "wonderful" new person and so I told him what my "problem" was; I had been raped when I was 14, just three years before our relationship started and sex scared me. I was trying though. I wanted to try again with him but I was scared. I thought this would scare him away or that he would tell me it was too much but he stayed and we continued our relationship. This was the first major thing he learned.
One day he forgot and tried with fingers again and I started to cry. At first I laid there, hiding my face with his pillow so he wouldn't see and I tried my best to enjoy it but I couldn't. My sobbing grew louder and couldn't be hidden anymore. He asked what was wrong and I told him at one point during the incident my rapist used his nails to violently scratch my vagina after he had finished with his penis. He never tried with his fingers again and this was the second major thing he learned.
Since he couldn't pleasure me with his fingers he tried with his mouth. Any time his head started to get lower, I would pull his face up and stop this from happening almost immediately. He loved how I tasted but I hated that he always wanted more. Eventually he asked me why I wouldn't let him where he wanted to go and I told him the first person to ever use his mouth on me was someone related to me. They both had beards. Even though I knew my partner wasn't the older male who took advantage of me when I was eight years old, his beard touching my leg made me cringe. This was the third major thing he learned.
One night he was on his way to a party and asked me if I had a problem with it because women I didn't know would be there. I said that I'd be lying if I said I wasn't slightly worried. This was conflicting for me: I love and adore women. I've been with women. I believe they deserve the most respect. I believe they are all survivors, they are all strong, and they are more than worthy of all things great. I hold all the females in my life on a pedestal – on the highest level is my mother. They never intimidate me, as I genuinely want all of us to succeed – but "daddy issues" do not disappear overnight. He asked me what worried me about women and I told him that it had to do with male interaction with females, males that I trust. I spent my entire childhood watching my mother cry because my father didn't come home. I listened to her excuses for why he was absent but I let her believe I didn't understand why he wasn't there. When he was sober he was amazing. He was my favourite person in the whole world. When he drank I didn't know who he was. I watched him hit her, abuse her – physically, mentally, verbally, you name it. I don't think I can erase the image of a knife to her neck as my sister and I screamed and cried. She faced it. Later down the road as a grown woman my mother asked me if I thought she was weak and without hesitation I said no; she's the strongest person I know. She does not need to explain her decisions and I was able to make sense of why she stayed. My partner at the time knew; he knew I was terrified of being cheated on and he knew it would kill me to find out he was involved with another woman. This was the fourth major thing he learned.
There he had it – I laid it all out for him. I trusted him to not hurt me. I saw this person as someone different so I exposed myself. All that made me vulnerable, all that made me the slightest insecure and all the details I promised I would keep private were now shared with someone I believed loved me. What I would later learn is that possession does not coincide with love; compliance is not a way to prove you're genuine and eventually restraint will cause resentment.
I needed to understand him too so I dug. I wanted to know what he had experienced, if anything. He touched on having a father who was physically abusive to both him and his mother. I listened to him and although I couldn't relate to my father ever putting his hands on me I understood how watching your mother experience something painful could affect you whether it be now or later. I understand the construct of hyper-masculinity and how males are conditioned to behave a certain way and I also understood that one of the first ways he learned to treat a woman was by inflicting pain. I just didn't think he'd ever do it to me. Call me naïve – I thought I could reverse his way of thinking.
I decided I would be there for him the same way he was for me. At this point in my head he was still this "wonderful" new person who knew everything about me, wanted to help me, who didn't find me to be unworthy after all he had learned and who wouldn't use anything he knew to make me feel worse about things that already made me feel ashamed. And again, so I thought.
Two people searching for love will never find it. He said he didn't feel cared for at home and I said the same. He told me I was the person to show him the most love, more than his family did. I told him I loved that I made him feel this way. So I did what was in my nature – I stayed to help him feel something the same way I needed to. What I also understand now is that two people searching for love will have two different definitions of what love is. My definition consists of nurturing, the ability to remain autonomous and free, forgiveness, understanding, and to give wholeheartedly. Later I learned his definition of love consisted of control and manipulation, power, compliance and to inflict pain, just like his father, as an act of self – fulfilment.
Middle of the relationship/The Slow Shift:
He expressed he hated all of my male friends and my exact words were, "that's unfortunate." He knew who I was, he knew I was "that girl," the only female to get invited to an all male party as "one of the guys." That wasn't going to change. Red flag number one.
He didn't like that my girlfriends were a priority. I never did anything to make him feel he wasn't important or included but if any of the women in my life needed me, I made sure to be there. He thought this put him second and he didn't like this. Red flag number two.
He constantly called my phone if I was out with my friends. He needed to make sure there wasn't a guy around. No matter how much I tried to reassure him that I'd never cheat on him he didn't believe me. Red flag number three.
He started to monitor who was messaging me. He would constantly argue with me about male friends he didn't know. He got upset when these friends 'liked' my pictures on Instagram or Facebook. Eventually I had to turn notifications off on my phone because I didn't want to deal with him. Red flag number four.
I put up a fight. Always. He wasn't going to control me or tell me what to do. I was going to hang with my boys, I was going to party wherever I wanted to and I was going to return the call of whichever one of my male friends was calling even if it was right in front of him. This didn't mean I was immature or not ready for a relationship. This displayed how controlling he was. It wasn't disrespect. I didn't have to alter my behaviour because he was insecure. He didn't like how he looked and felt he was stagnant in life. He wasn't working and I was on top. I was always on top. I had money and I was taking care of myself. I was always involved with numerous projects at once. I had friends and I was well known. People knew who I was but only knew him as my boyfriend. I was stronger than him, mentally. I challenged him and he didn't like it. Later down the line he would come to tell me that he was intimidated by me and this explained his much of his behaviour.
Instead of leaving him at this point, two years in, I decided I would stay and help tackle his insecurities and all that made him uneasy. What I didn't understand is that you cannot help someone that does not want to be helped or who believes his actions can be justified. He looked at me as his possession instead of his equal. It's not your job to "help," period. At times I knew things he did and said was wrong but he was my first serious boyfriend. His actions after years of inconsistency and instability in my home, felt somewhat okay. I was desensitized to so much after seeing my mother go through worse. I felt I had it better. I don't feel this way now but back then it felt normal.
The first time he called me out my name I let it slide. After all he didn't know better, right? He had watched his father do it to his mother and so he didn't actually mean it when he repeated the words to me, right? Wrong. We had just finished shopping and we were on our way home. He wanted to spend time with me later in the evening but I told him I couldn't – I had plans with the guys. He looked me dead in my eyes and called me a whore and he said he knew what I was doing when I was out with them and I wasn't answering his messages. This fight escalated quickly and I defended myself. I tried to level with him but he said I was a bitch for arguing with him, then he said I was a cunt and then for whatever reason started to name people I slept with before knowing him and called me a slut. He looked at me again and said I was deserving of the rape because all I did was flirt with men anyway. He used major incident number one as a way to make me feel the lowest I could possibly feel. I tried to walk away from this argument but he kept following and blocking me. He didn't want me to leave. Possession. I ended up having to call one of my friends to pick me up to get me away from him. Slowly I started to shut down and his way of speaking to me continued. I've always believed the most important thing in a relationship is not communication, but forgiveness. So I forgave him and we continued.
The hard part of the relationship – middle to end:
February 17th 2012 one of my best friends asked me to watch her son. I asked him if he wanted to tag along and keep me company that night as he had the night off work. My friend went on her date; I locked her door, put her son to bed, and fucked him in her living room.
March 28th 2012 I took a pregnancy test in the washroom at my school. Positive. I didn't cry because I was happy. I ran back to my classroom to get two of my girls. I took them down the hallway and we plopped on the floor. I showed them the test and I told them how excited I was. I called him to let him know. His response: "you're a cunt, that's not my baby, didn't we talk about how much of a whore you are and that you're sleeping with other guys? Get rid of it." This was when I started to cry.
When he calmed down he called me back and we spoke. He said he would leave school to pick me up. He asked me what I was craving and said he would take me to eat. He said he was sorry, that he actually was excited and that he was wrong for what he said. Forgiveness. So we continued.
We decided we were going to keep our baby. Agreed – the timing was probably the worst, our families wouldn't be happy, but we both believed it was a blessing.
Then he changed his mind. Over and over he changed his mind. One minute it was all a go then he called me a dirty whore and said I needed to get rid of "it." Then when he decided we would keep our baby I was the person he loved the most, his best friend, and he couldn't wait to see what our baby looked like. Forgiveness.
Of course he changed his mind again after that. My anxiety disorder worsened. After the sexual abuse I had experienced earlier on and now being pregnant and having someone verbally abuse me every day, it escalated to a point where it was uncontrollable and I was having anxiety attacks several times a day. Both my mental and physical health was deteriorating. I woke up to text messages where he asked me if I woke up in a pool of blood and to only respond if I miscarried. Before I went to bed I received messages where he told me I was filth, I asked to be raped, and that he doesn't want to have babies with a dirty woman so I should abort. Messages like these continued for weeks, all day and all night.
I didn't tell anyone what was going on. How could I? They looked at me as the strong one of the group; I was the mother. I took care of everyone else. My relationship on the outside looked perfect. How could I possibly go to my friends and tell them I needed help? He knew I'd never tell anyone. I believed whatever happens in a relationship stays between the two people so I never said a word. Maybe I was also trying to protect him.
April 3rd 2012 I had an abortion. I couldn't take him anymore. Secretly, deep down, I didn't want his child. I wanted my child but I didn't want his. I cried and cried feeling like I killed my baby and carried this guilt for years but I did what I had to do. I thought maybe he would change if I made him happy and our relationship would be good again after the abortion but he wouldn't touch me or look at me the entire time. From the moment he picked me up till I got home he wouldn't engage with me. I was sitting on the floor in the hallway outside of the clinic and reached up for a hug but me pushed me down to the floor and asked me to not speak to him. I sat there and cried till it was my turn.
After we left the clinic he still wouldn't speak to me. I was drowsy from the drugs and I remember him walking ahead of me, not turning back once to help me. I fell trying to get inside of my house and he yelled at me telling me to hurry the fuck up because he had to get home. I thought this would be the end of him but it wasn't.
Exactly one week after the abortion I woke up to a text message from him saying was really tired. I called him to say hi and asked why he didn't sleep well. He told me he was up until 3am talking to his ex girlfriend, almost taunting me with this. I hung up and had an anxiety attack. He used incident number four to hurt me.
I drank every single night for months. The drinking stopped when I started cutting myself. I never understood why people hurt themselves but that day I did. It made me feel better. Also, I was working and I couldn't handle a hangover while there. At the time it was the quickest and easiest way to release. I fell into a deep depression. After being pregnant for two months I was attached to my baby and I couldn't wrap my head around the termination. Regret. I wouldn't accept help from my friends. Most of them didn't understand and I was ashamed to go to the ones that did. I felt alone. Two of my best friends were away in another country and I couldn't face my family. I was young too. I didn't even really understand what was happening. I tried to continue like everything was okay but it wasn't.
You act in ways outside your usual character when you feel like you don't have anyone. Or when you tell yourself you don't have anyone. One day after an anxiety attack I attempted suicide. I still remember that day like it was yesterday – I was laying on the floor in my basement crying about my baby. I tried but was unsuccessful. I panicked and called my friends but they didn't answer me. The next person I called to take me to the hospital was him. He picked me up to take me but cussed at me the entire way there, cussed at me every time the doctors left the room and cussed at me before he left. He was upset he had to miss work.
He knew at this point he had some kind of power over me. He saw how much I loved him after I begged for us to keep our child and after I begged him to be treat me better but stayed even though he didn't. One minute he was great, one minute he was horrible. It was almost like he was testing me every single time and I didn't budge. When he wanted to see me weak and have an anxiety attack, he'd mentioned his ex. When he wanted to see me cry he would say if I were a stronger woman I would have held onto the baby despite all that he did. I started to internalize all of this. Love can be wonderful and it can be the most beautiful thing but it can also be the most darkest, damaging, and hurtful thing when used as a weapon.
At times I would be having an anxiety attack and he would hover me saying and doing things that would make them worse for me. I would lie there crying, hyperventilating, having absolutely no control over my body and he would laugh and smirk as I begged him to hold me and calm me down. He wouldn't touch me. Instead he would say, verbatim, "everyone thinks you're this strong woman but I know exactly how to break you down, I know I can control you." At one point after the abortion he wanted to have sex but I was still bleeding. I told him I couldn't and that he'd have to give me a few days. We were out driving one day and continued to do so till he said, "no I want it now, let's pull over." I didn't really know how to react and I kind of just looked at him. I told him I was cramping and in pain. He said, "Guess I should just call my ex." Compliance.
We went to a parking garage. He entered me, pulled out, looked at the blood on himself and told me "I was absolutely disgusting," put his pants back on and we left. Another time after that when I stopped bleeding we attempted sex and he saw the marks on my leg after cutting. He looked at me and said if I was trying to punish myself I should have sliced deeper. According to him I was responsible everything that happened.
There was a monster in this man I could not tackle. Even if I tried to tackle it I'd never be successful. I wanted to stick by him and I wanted to help him change but even thinking he could be changed to suit me was a mistake in itself. I've always been a strong woman. And in these moments where it sounds like I was weak, I wasn't. Abuse comes in many forms but starts with manipulation. Mental abuse is hard to recognize at first since it doesn't leave obvious marks and it's not always blatant and in your face. It can be characterized by the manipulation and invalidation of a person. Anything he did and said to me was to invalidate me as a woman, first starting with invalidating my strength.
I was trying to work towards a better place for myself and he recognized this. I tried to leave him numerous times but he would threaten to swallow a bottle of pills or hurt himself and I'd stay – thinking it wasn't who I met back in 2008 and that he needed help too. I felt trapped. Remember what I said about forgiveness being the most important thing in a relationship? The act of forgiveness can destroy you.
Nobody believed me when I tried to share what this person did and said to me until I showed proof. I showed them my phone so they could see his text messages and one night his best friend listened to him on speaker as he cussed at me the day after my birthday. He was mad guys were flirting with me at my party. Everyone viewed him as this sweet and lovely person. Only I knew who he was.
He wanted compliance but that wasn't in my nature. He needed someone to control and maybe at my weakest moment he had that but it didn't continue for long. Recognizing red flags isn't as easy as it seems when you pair all that I went through at home and as a child with what he was doing. I've learned now.
Our cores do not change. My heart and my core is different and will never be the same as his. At the center of his core was darkness, and at the center of mine, despite all that I had gone through, was light. People will choose to show you what they want but deep down they will always be the same.
He started our relationship saying he admired how strong I was but this was far from the truth. This relationship ended one night after a party. We went to one of our friend's house and afterwards attempted to have sex. I got on top of him; I kissed and licked his neck, pushed his head between my breasts, begged him to suck on my nipples and moaned as he did. Then I hopped off to turn on my back, waiting for him to fuck me. I was wet and ready to go. He slid in me and I pushed him off me and sat up. Something shifted, I don't know what or why, or even when, but I looked him dead in his eye and said, "get the fuck off me, you disgust me." Karma. I put my clothes on and I left. I was ready to move on.
If your partner had to be in a state of distress and depression for you to feel happiness, even in the slightest, you're weaker than them even at their lowest. He started to slowly realize towards the end of our relationship how much his family impacted his life and he started to slowly see exactly how damaging he had been but at that point when he finally realized a change needed to be made, I was ready to walk. He cried, he called me and begged me to work things out but it was too late for me.
Relationships and what being in a relationship entails can be confusing. This idea of sticking by someone no matter what they do or say to you will make you forget about what your needs are and what makes you happy. This is not called sacrifice for the other person; this becomes self-destructive for you. I stopped worrying about what he needed when I chose to leave because I started to see that nurturing each other's needs was not being done mutually. It wasn't easy to move on or to make sense of most of what happened. My focus became healing on my own and without him – he was the root of the issues.
I forgot for a short while but I know who I am. What he planted in my head was slowly removed. I am none of the things he tried to tell me I am. Instead of continuing a relationship with someone who constantly reminded me of everything that caused me pain I decided to start a new journey, standing alone. I have to live with my decisions and I know why I made them. I cannot question or punish myself for anything that happened before him, during our relationship, or even after. Forgiveness. And so I continued.
Trigger Warning: Sexual Abuse
I saw him
He saw me too
I froze
Just like I always do when our paths cross
My heart dove into my stomach
I wanted to run and cry and yell and disappear
All at the same time
I saw him
The man who raped me
Last year around this time, I was sitting in a cafe
I heard his voice right behind me
He was talking to his friend, pretending not to see me
So with my heart beating way too fast, I pretended that I didn't hear his voice
I pretended that we weren't close friends a time long ago
I pretended that on that summer afternoon, he didn't look into my eyes and tell me
You're beautiful
When I heard his voice that day
I felt completely invisible
I felt like my whole being didn't exist
When I walked outside
It immediately started to rain
The rain was a gift letting me know that I do exist
The wet drops on my skin and the wind in my hair told me that I am
A human being that is breathing, alive and visible to the world around me
When he saw me today
He hid
He lowered his eyes and his head and once again pretended that I was invisible
That what he did to me didn't happen
That I didn't exist
Are you alive?
These were his words to me, the day after it happened
These words would shatter my heart each time he crossed my mind
I want to say to you
Yes, I am alive
I am breathing
I am brave
I am brilliant
I am beautiful
I am worth so much more than the violence other people have inflicted onto my body, heart, and mind
To you, I say this:
You could not face me after it happened
You still cannot
And I understand
You don't want to be a monster. You don't want to be a villain
I want you to know that I forgive you
I forgive you because I no longer want to hold onto the pain I've carried for years
I no longer want my whole being to freeze when you cross my path
From this day forward, if our paths cross again, I will keep walking in strength and in peace
Shame and pain will no longer make me too afraid to acknowledge what you did to me
To you I ask:
Have you acknowledged what you did to me?
Have you forgiven yourself?
Today was the first time I was brave enough to go back to the place it happened
I am writing these words sitting in the place my body became yours
Without my permission
This is my healing, this is my closure
You will no longer haunt me
The tree beside me gives me comfort
At least I know, I was not alone.
Little did my Parents Know My Babysitter would Become my Rapist
Trigger Warning: Sexual Abuse, Physical Abuse.
I grew up sitting on the poverty line. Proud Caribbean parents who took absolutely no nonsense raised me and luckily for me, I had both of them in my life. My mother, a workaholic, also took great pride in maintaining her home. My father, arrived in Canada at age 13, was a former musician and unlike my mother was more eccentric and outgoing. They wanted the best for my siblings and were always pushing us to get the best grades so we could become doctors or lawyers one day.
My parents both worked a lot and regardless of the hours they worked, found it difficult to afford daycare so they often looked to neighbours to babysit my brothers and I while they were at work. Little did my parents know: my babysitter would become my rapist. I didn't understand much of what she did to me until I started watching porn at age 14. I suppressed most of this incident for much of my life and felt intense sexual urges but felt shame attached to this feeling. My parents realized I experienced these urges one day when they caught me with my pants down in my room touching myself. I explained to them that I was doing something the babysitter and I would do when my brothers weren't around. Needless to say, she didn't babysit after that.
As with most Caribbean families, spankings as a form of punishment is quite normal. As I grew and became a less mischievous child, I long forgot what those beatings felt like until I reached the stage in my life where I hit puberty. My father grew weary of me becoming sexual and would constantly stop me from wearing certain clothing and wouldn't allow me to go out after school unless it was for an activity tied to schooling. This was somewhat understandable to me as I understood my parents' upbringing and why my sexuality might be a problem for them but it was also conflicting because my brothers were allowed the freedom I craved even though I had always been the most responsible one of their children. I grew resentful and started lying to my parents about extracurricular activities so I could spend time with my friends after school.
For background, I had always been an honour roll and sometimes principal's honour roll student. I'd participate in extracurricular activities in school, was in the school's orchestra, and made sure my brothers were always taken care of and the house was clean before my parents got home from work. I was able to achieve and maintain all of these things starting from the age of 8. Even with all this, my parents still didn't feel like I could be trusted out of the house with friends or have male friends over even if they were home. This was upsetting for me because I had always been a tomboy and most of my friends were males.
At age 16 I decided to take matters into my own hands. I wanted to hang out with my male friends and so I did regardless of what consequences came later. My father didn't like the rebellious nature I developed and he punished me by beating me. When he saw that the beatings didn't stop me from doing what I wanted, he became harsher: beatings with cables, choking, he would bash my head against the concrete floor, rip my hair out and verbally abuse me; calling me everything from a prostitute, to a crack head, to a bitch. I found myself facing severe depression.
I lost my virginity at age 16 to my boyfriend after one year of dating. We broke up after two years as he didn't know how to deal with the black eyes and welts on my body that my father would leave. A man ten years older than me raped me for months because he knew about my boyfriend and threatened to tell my father so I stayed quiet and endured the sexual abuse that came. I didn't see this as cheating, I saw this as a way to protect and save my relationships because if my parents found out, my relationship would be over. Once I realized he was doing this to other young girls, I stopped this because I now had information to threaten him with so he would leave me alone. I was still afraid of him so I didn't go to the police but I felt by did my part by warning him against doing this to anyone else. I had low self-esteem at the time and could only scare him with his words.
Between the ages of 17-19 I turned to sex to relieve myself of my depression from the lack of freedom I was given, the sexual abuse, and the beatings from my father. My parents had already categorized me as a whore so it didn't matter to me what I did with my body. They created my sense of worthlessness. The only thing that could stop me from researching ways to kill myself was finding a boy who wanted to be my boyfriend for a while and having as much sex with him as possible. It filled a void and I got into abusive relationship after abusive relationship with multiple men.
When I was 19 I realized I couldn't continue the method I was using and instead turned to excessive weed and alcohol to help my feelings of self-hatred and depression. At the time and to only me, this seemed like a great time in my life. I met someone and I was in the best relationship I had ever been in and it lasted two years; we still remain friends to this day. During this period though, I would party every weekend and drink every day with other alcoholic friends but thought I was functioning because I managed to get through work every day. Even when sneaking vodka in McDonalds cups to work I didn't realize I had a problem. Now, I can't look at vodka without feeling nauseous.
My parents had been threatening to kick me out since I was 17. At times I would leave and sleep at my boyfriends house or a close friend of mine for long periods of time until my mother eventually asked me to come home. My life remained turbulent until I turned 21 when I moved out on my own. My ex and I were broken up but still remained close. I hadn't let my parents get to know him because my father had always physically fought me whenever I tried to bring a guy friend home and I didn't want my ex to see what my home life was like.
One day I was feeling my lowest. I lost my job, I had betrayed a close friend of mine and we were no longer close, and I felt unaccomplished because I wasn't successful at completing my post secondary education despite several attempts to start. I felt like nothing more than a whore who had wasted her life. All the nasty things I had heard about myself is what I started to believe.
I asked my ex of two years to come over one day because I needed someone to talk to; I was feeling suicidal and didn't trust myself to be alone. My father came home early and before I could explain what was happening he began choking me in front of my ex. I was mortified and this time tried to fight back. I called the police because I couldn't handle the abuse any longer but when they arrived they sided with my father. I was outraged. Luckily my ex stood by me through the entire process and that night I went to sleep at his house. His home where he stayed with his family felt like more of a loving environment than my own.
This became my turning point. The next day I went home and packed all of my things and stayed with a friend. I had no idea where I was going from there but I managed to talk another friend into letting me stay with her for six months, using my welfare to pay a portion of the rent until I got back up on my feet. From there I got and maintained a job and secured my own apartment where I lived for two years until I started going back to school. I had mostly quit the heavy drinking that contributed to me being stagnant and when I was 21 I started participating in healthy activities such as yoga and playing my violin. At 24 I moved back into my mother's house, focusing primarily on my education and my job. I began helping her pay bills and was happy to contribute to the household financially because she had kicked my father out after I decided to come back. I was more than happy to help her make her house a home again.
I am now preparing myself for my next move to Montreal where I will finish a degree in agricultural science and make a difference for other people's families who have as little or maybe less resources than my own family did when we first started out. I won't lie and say that some days I don't imagine I'm still that destructive young girl who had nothing to live for and was ready to end it all but those days are so far and few for me now. I will never say I'm grateful for all of the things that happened to me in the past and throughout my life but I am more than happy with the woman that has emerged from those events. I am stronger than ever and I am ready to make a difference in the world.
My Rapist is my Son's Father
Trigger Warning: Sexual Abuse.
It was a late December night and I was excited that I could finally get into a club. It was my nineteenth birthday, the night I got pregnant.
The previous year my girlfriends went off to university and since that time the connection we built over the four years during high school was slowly lost. I had taken a year off of school because I was at a point in my life where I was confused about what to do next or even how I felt about myself. Growing up in a household of violence and addiction really took its toll on me and I needed to figure out how to move forward with my life even though I was still living in a hostile environment. Slowly the violence and addiction of a family member had subsided so I made the decision to go back to school although the trauma, pain and lack of love were still there. On top of it, my mother had been going through a very tough time in her life and struggled with her mental health since I was twelve – this too made it difficult for me to navigate as a young woman who wasn't able to discuss much of anything with her mother.
I began drinking at 16 and smoking at 12. People thought it was because I wanted to "fit in" but mostly it was because I needed a way to cope with everything that was falling apart around me. I learned at a young age that the way to cope was through the use of drugs and alcohol. The volatile environment I called home was a 'no talking zone' where feelings and love could never be spoken about freely or honestly. Violence was the norm – a way to express yourself. Addiction to drugs and alcohol was not hidden and suicide attempts were front and centre. At only twelve years old I was trying to figure out how to cope with seeing all these things; coming up with stories to tell my teachers if they asked me where the bruises and deep cuts on my forehead, legs and arms came from, while my friends hung out peacefully at home complaining about their parents not wanting them to wear mascara because they thought they were too young.
The night of my nineteenth birthday I accepted the invitation of two male co-workers to go out to a club downtown Toronto to celebrate. One of my friends picked me up in a cab where we would then meet the other at the apartment he lived in downtown. He bought me a Ciara album for my birthday and I didn't have the heart to tell him that I had already bought it. I left my bag at my friend's apartment downtown because we had discussed earlier in the day that I could stay the night to save money by not having to take a cab home. I lied to my father and said I would be staying the night with a girlfriend of mine. We made our way to the club and got in without an issue. There were no assumptions or expectations for the night ahead, at least on my end. We were all friends.
I had a crush on one of the guys that came out that night. We spoke about it in the past as the feelings were mutual but there were no plans to act on it. Growing up I never received much attention from boys. I was the quiet girl yet quick to stand up for myself or anyone else that was bullied or picked on. I was the girl who couldn't afford to wear expensive clothes. The girl who barely passed her classes and came to school with bruises and cuts, the girl who hung out at the back of the school drinking and smoking; I was the girl who was never asked by anyone if she was okay. So, to receive the attention of an older attractive man was exciting but intimidating and nerve wracking for me. I wasn't ready for anything from him – not even a kiss. We would be friends, I decided.
As I danced the night away one of my friends decided to go home so it was just the two of us left: me and the one I had a crush on. He kept bringing me Smirnoff after Smirnoff after Smirnoff while he sipped on water the whole night. He was a fitness and health buff so he wasn't interested in alcohol whatsoever. I think I lost count at four Smirnoff Ice's. As 3am rolled around it was time to leave and we headed back to his place where I had left my stuff earlier in the night. He took me on a tour of his building, showing me the amenities it had to offer, and then we headed up. We agreed that nothing would happen that night and even decided we would sleep head to feet. From there things got blurry.
On my nineteenth birthday I was raped.
When I gave birth to my son my whole life changed. Not only because I became a single mother at nineteen years old but something felt off. I didn't realize I was raped on my nineteenth birthday until I was 25 years old. I always knew something didn't feel right but I couldn't figure it out. I didn't have a label for it. I slipped into a deep depression that I couldn't even recognize. I didn't know I was severely depressed for the first several months of my son's life until well into my twenties. I remember having a hard time doing just about anything. I stopped calling friends, answering their calls or returning them. They slowly stopped inviting me out not realizing that something serious was going on for me. Then the phone calls stopped. I lived with my parents at the time and my father, now a sober and completely different man, was extremely supportive. He knew what was going on with me even though I didn't but he didn't know how to help me. He would let me sleep while he took care of my son. He would feed him, bathe him, and hold him when I couldn't. He would try to talk to me but was only met with anger or silence. He would encourage me to go out and take care of myself. I resisted but eventually accepted. I would go out not to drink but to get drunk. I had this constant need to escape so that the pain I couldn't label would go away.
When I was 25 I decided to see a counsellor. I was always hesitant to go to one but I finally decided to. I forced myself because I needed someone to talk to. I had run into my sons 'father' after six years of his chosen absence and I was beginning to have confusing memories; flashbacks to my nineteenth birthday and confusing thoughts that I didn't understand. Within five minutes the counsellor had me in tears and within ten she told me it was normal to feel the way I was feeling about running into my sons 'father' because he raped me. I let the word sit in the air, not understanding it; as if I didn't even recognize it. I remember this intense anger boiling up inside of me towards her. I screamed, "I was not raped!" I immediately grabbed my bag and ran out the door making sure I slammed it on the way out.
I didn't understand how a complete stranger could tell me I was raped. Wouldn't I know? Of course I would know. Right? I willingly drank on my nineteenth birthday. I went back to his place on my own free will. I put my pajamas on and decided to sleep in his bed. What do you mean I was raped? But then everything started making sense. The fact that I didn't remember my clothes being taken off and that I didn't remember having sex. Do you even call that sex? What would you even call it? I went to sleep but woke up during the night to him on top of me. I vaguely remember trying to push his body off mine. In the morning I woke up without clothes and I couldn't stop wondering how. I recall going to the washroom in the morning and crying because I didn't understand what was dripping out of me.
I always thought rape had to be violent until I was 25.
Growing up I was told what rape should look like. It was described as violent, aggressive, and painful – an event that will have you running for your life; for your well-being, mentally and physically. So how could this counsellor possibly think that I was raped? It wasn't violent, it wasn't aggressive, and I don't recall feeling any pain. I didn't wake up with any injuries. I didn't have to run for safety. So how was it possible for someone who had only known me for ten minutes claim that I was raped on my nineteenth birthday?
Then I began to remember. I was drunk and was given drinks until I was at a point where I couldn't even defend myself or give consent.
Consent. That was the missing piece. That was what I was missing for so many years.
Yes, I went back to his place. Yes, I laid down to sleep. No, I didn't give consent. How could I? I was heavily intoxicated. Blacking out. Unable to even understand how and when my clothes even came off. Was a condom used? I didn't know. I had no idea because I couldn't remember anything. I willingly went back to his place but my intention was to sleep, his wasn't. He was sober and I was not.
For years I blamed myself for getting pregnant at nineteen and for getting drunk that night. For trusting someone enough to sleep at their place. I did not want to have sex with him that night. Yes, I had a crush on him but I was not ready to have sex with him. I did not want to have sex with him. I just wanted to sleep but he decided he wanted to have sex with me. He did not have a drop of alcohol the whole night – he knew what he was doing and I wasn't in the right state of mind to say no, to deny consent. And yet I did physically but it was ignored.
That night he took a piece of me. He helped himself to my body and made me feel like a stranger inside of it for years. He turned my life upside down and walked away with no consequences. No repercussions.
My rapist doesn't know he is a rapist.
My rapist is my son's father.
My son is my life. He is everything to me. I am his mother and he has no father and never will. My son is innocent and is not to blame for anything that happened that night. He has nothing to do with any of it. He did not ask for this to happen. He did not ask to have a rapist for a father.
My son changed my life – for the better. He makes me see the world in a completely different way. He is my light, my motivation and my life. I love him with every cell in my body. When I look at my son I see him and only him, not the man that raped me. My son is an innocent light full of love and this is all I see when I look at him; peace. I wouldn't change what happened on my nineteenth birthday because then I wouldn't have my son and yet I would want to. These are complicated feelings that I can never fully express or explain and I don't think I will ever be able to but the people in my life would get this.
Rape doesn't have to be violent in order for it to be considered rape. This is one thing I wish I was told when I was young. I blamed myself for getting pregnant for so many years before I realized that it wasn't my fault. I went out to have a good time – to dance and have some drinks. The plan was to go back to a trusted friend's house to sleep. Period. Full stop. I am not to blame. It was not my fault. The only thing that was my fault was trusting the wrong person to spend my time with, and even then, don't we all at some point in our lives?
On my nineteenth birthday I was raped. Nine months later my son gave me a new life; a life full of hope, joy and unconditional love. My son has healed me in ways I could have never imagined and I am truly thankful for him. He is not to blame. I am not to blame. It was not our fault.

Philip Sayce talks 'Influence' and demos Yamaha pedal
04 August 2014
One of the most inspirational blues rock guitarists on the planet, Philip Sayce releases "Influence", the new album features Sayce's most outstanding recordings of his career. The album will be released on Limited Edition 180 gram double vinyl (1,000 copies only), CD and digital download.
The authenticity of his guitar playing throughout the new LP is overwhelming, and yet, it is the craftsmanship, production and emotionally compelling song arrangements that evoke a passionate and spiritual impact that's unforgettable.
Originally born in Wales, Sayce moved to Toronto as a young child.

Watch a video of Sayce talking about his influences while he demos the Yamaha THR10 vintage pedals here.
Last year Sayce gave an unforgettable performance at Eric Clapton's Crossroads Festival at Madison Square Garden in 2013. "It was amazing," Sayce says.

Cameron Mackintosh fishing boat wrecked in second arson attack
A fire which destroyed a boat owned by millionaire theatre impresario Sir Cameron Mackintosh is being investigated.
The blaze, near the West End producer's home in the Scottish Highlands, comes only weeks after he won a 13-year land feud with a tenant on his 14,000-acre estate.
A 19ft fibreglass fishing boat was left a 'melted wreck'.
The attack comes more than ten years after Sir Cameron's house on the estate, east of Mallaig, mysteriously burned down.
Victim of vandalism: A fishing boat belonging to theatre impresario Sir Cameron Mackintosh was burnt in an apparent arson attack this week
Yesterday, his spokesman Andrew Aitchison said: 'This was a petty act of vandalism. There is absolutely no doubt that this was a very deliberate act – this was no accident.'
Earlier this month, a court ruled in the 13-year dispute between Sir Cameron and his crofting tenant, Donald Cameron, 87.
Mr Cameron, along with many crofters in the remote community, opposed plans for a woodland regeneration project on the estate. In a partial victory, Sir Cameron was allowed to take 25 acres from his tenant's holding for the development, which includes holiday homes and other buildings.
But he was refused permission to take a further 15 acres out of crofting tenure for the project.
Local crofters have denied being behind the latest fire incident.
The original estate house, built by Sir Cameron's aunt and uncle 40 years ago, was destroyed in November 2000.
Police said there was an explosion after someone turned on the gas supply, but no one was arrested.
The impresario replaced the house with a £1.4 million six-bedroom stone lodge, which also bears the same name, Torran Albannach – Gaelic for 'a little piece of Scotland'.
Yesterday, Mr Aitchison, of Strutt & Parker, the Edinburgh-based property consultants which act as Sir Cameron's estate managers, said he had discovered the boat wreckage last Friday.
He added: 'Some crofters have had fingers pointed at them but we are not sure who instigated it. Sir Cameron is obviously very disappointed that some misguided individual has taken it upon themselves to carry out such a mindless act of vandalism.'
Picturesque: Sir Cameron's boat was moored on Loch Morar in Invernesshire
Last night, at his 700-acre croft holding, Mr Cameron said he was familiar with Sir Cameron's boat, which was moored at the South Tarbet jetty on Loch Morar.
But he added: 'I may have been in dispute with the man but I have not been burning his boat.'
Another local crofter, who declined to be named, said: 'We have had our differences with Sir Cameron but we are not arsonists.' The Land Court, in a separate ruling in response to Sir Cameron's plan to take the woodland area, granted Mr Cameron permission to go ahead with a move to exercise his right to buy his croft.
Other tenants of Sir Cameron, who bought the estate from Lord Lovat in the early Nineties, want to do the same.

Housebuilders struggling to meet social housing demand, reveals survey
Despite affordable and social housing being a top priority in England, housebuilders are struggling to meet demand as a result of local authorities not commissioning enough to be built, a new survey has suggested.
Construction consulting and design agency McBains commissioned VIGA to carry out the survey of 431 housebuilders across England.
Government statistics published in January 2018 suggest that local authorities in England owned 1.6 million homes in 2017, down from 3.67 million in 1994.
In response to the decline, McBains said its survey asked housebuilders how many council homes, and separately affordable homes through Section 106 agreements, they had built in the past two years, as well as what they expect to build in the next year.
On average, respondents to the survey say they have been contracted to build 191 homes in the past two years, and 263 in London. Of these homes, 16 per cent on average were social housing. In London, it was 15 per cent.
Housebuilders expect that just 16 per cent of the total number of properties (on average, 181 homes) they will build in the next year will be classed as social housing, with 20 per cent expected to be affordable. In London, they expect 19 per cent of the homes they build (255) to be affordable and 16 per cent to be for social housing.
Of the homes built by respondents over the past two years, 22 per cent on average (22 per cent in London) were affordable homes built under Section 106 legislation. In the next year, housebuilders expect 20 per cent of these to be classed as affordable homes. For London, this is just 19 per cent.
Michael Thirkettle, chief executive of McBains, said: "Our survey suggests that local authorities are not commissioning social housing in anywhere near the numbers needed to meet demand.
"Similarly, the chronic need for affordable homes, in London especially, is not being met, with less than one in five homes classed as affordable. It means those most in need of housing will find it harder than ever to find accommodation within their budget.
"Developers are frequently accused of stifling the construction of new homes by 'land banking' – sitting on land so that site values increase. But often the reason is that obtaining planning permission can stretch on for months, if not years, while the developer has already invested heavily in the project. Streamlining the planning system to help developments get off the ground quicker is required."
