This handbook surveys the state of the current psychiatric care field across the whole Asia-Pacific region. Focusing on individual countries, each chapter will include:
A summary of factors affecting the practice and provision of psychiatric care, including cultural attitudes to mental health issues
Coverage of the conceptualisation, causation and prevalence of mental health issues in society
An overview of mental health care services and systems available and workforce training
Coverage of country specific innovative practices and folk therapies
As the first major reference work on psychiatric care in Asia this book is an essential resource for scholars and students researching mental health in Asia as well as psychiatrists and other mental health professionals working in the region.
Edited by Stella R. Quah
Research on the family has expanded considerably across Asia but studies tend to be fragmented, focusing on narrow issues within limited areas (cities, towns, small communities) and may not be accessible to international readers. These limitations make it difficult for researchers, students, policy makers, and practitioners to obtain the information they need. The Routledge Handbook of Families in Asia fills that gap by providing a current and comprehensive analysis of Asian families by a wide range of experts in a single publication.
'The most comprehensive--and the most detailed--examination of families in Asia published to date. A major achievement that significantly advances our understanding of how cultures, structures, and kin dynamics intersect. Particularly impressive is the skillful combination of comparative analysis and multidisciplinary perspective, making for a volume that has both substantive and methodological value. Essential reading for family scholars across the globe.' - Ralph LaRossa, Georgia State University, USA
'This book is remarkably revealing about both modern Asia and present-day family life in an unfamiliar cultural setting. The articles, by eminent family sociologists, all deserve close attention. The articles on dating, courtship, and the marital relationship by editor Stella Quah were especially fascinating. I also learned a lot from Susan McDaniel's article on the family life course and Chin-chun Yi's article on adolescence and the transition to adulthood..' - Lorne Tepperman, University of Toronto, Canada

His dedication to scholarship and service began in 1965 with his editorship of New York University's Heights Daily News. An academic star from the beginning, Reisch achieved distinction for his scholastic performance at the undergraduate, graduate, and doctoral levels.
A former Woodrow Wilson Fellow and Fulbright Senior Scholar, Reisch has authored or edited more than 25 books and monographs and published more than 100 articles and book chapters. He also has presented more than 300 papers at state, national, and international conferences including presentations on the history and philosophy of social welfare; the effect of globalization on the future of the welfare state; the relationship of social justice and multiculturalism to social policy and social work practice; radical social work; community organization theory and practice; the nonprofit sector; and contemporary policy issues, particularly welfare reform. His work is so valued internationally that it has been translated into Bulgarian, Chinese, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Russian, and Spanish, and he has lectured widely in Asia, Australia, Europe, and Latin America.
Reisch is the Daniel Thursz Distinguished Professor of Social Justice at the University of Maryland and one of the most respected social work educators in the United States. He has held faculty and administrative positions at the University of Michigan, the University of Pennsylvania, San Francisco State University, and SUNY Stony Brook and was a visiting professor at the University of California, Berkeley; the New Bulgarian University in Sofia; and, as a Fulbright Senior Scholar, at the University of Queensland in Brisbane, Australia. He is well-known for his ability to practically apply the concepts of equality and social justice to social policy and social work practice.
Not only is Dr. Reisch a strong contributor to the social work knowledge base and to social work education, he also has participated in enhancing social policy and practice. He has played leadership roles in national and state advocacy and in professional and social change organizations that focus on the needs of low-income children and families, welfare recipients, and unemployed or homeless persons. He has directed or consulted on political campaigns at the federal, state, and local levels in four states and been honored for his work by numerous local and national nonprofit organizations, professional associations, and universities including the Maryland General Assembly, the San Francisco Board of Supervisors, and the National Association of Social Workers.
Dr. Reisch's early promise has been fulfilled throughout his career in the form of research grants, a prolific publication record, the integration of his passion for international history and political theory with social work knowledge to bring unique perspectives to students, and his commitment to enhancing the goals of social work education and the profession through his strong record of academic administration and his wide-ranging service engagements in academia and the community.
The Routledge International Handbook of Race, Class, and Gender chronicles the development, growth, history, impact, and future direction of race, gender, and class studies from a multidisciplinary perspective.

The Routledge Handbook of the Cold War
Edited by Artemy M. Kalinovsky, Craig Daigle
This new Handbook offers a wide-ranging overview of current scholarship on the Cold War, with essays from many leading scholars.
The field of Cold War history has consistently been one of the most vibrant in the field of international studies. Recent scholarship has added to our understanding of familiar Cold War events, such as the Korean War, the Cuban Missile Crisis and superpower détente, and shed new light on the importance of ideology, race, modernization, and transnational movements.
The Routledge Handbook of the Cold War draws on the wealth of new Cold War scholarship, bringing together essays on a diverse range of topics such as geopolitics, military power and technology and strategy. The chapters also address the importance of non-state actors, such as scientists, human rights activists and the Catholic Church, and examine the importance of development, foreign aid and overseas assistance.
The volume is organised into nine parts:
Part I: The Early Cold War
Part II: Cracks in the Bloc
Part III: Decolonization, Imperialism and its Consequences
Part IV: The Cold War in the Third World
Part V: The Era of Detente
Part VI: Human Rights and Non-State Actors
Part VII: Nuclear Weapons, Technology and Intelligence
Part VIII: Psychological Warfare, Propaganda and Cold War Culture

Just when you thought the fantastic pace of content on our blogs would slow down a bit after completing our "31 Days of Servers in the Cloud" series, we're starting our new series for February: "Migration and Deployment".
"So.. is this a February series, with 28 parts and new stuff every day?"
Well.. okay, maybe not quite the same pace as we did in January. We decided to give you (and selfishly, ourselves) the weekends off. But, this actually lends itself to another interesting way to break up the month into specific topic areas; one topic-area-per-week. And in each week, we'll discuss issues of migration and deployment for and around the platform in question.
Our 4 weeks of topic areas breaks down like this:
- Week #1 (February 4-8): Windows 8
- Week #2 (February 11-15): Windows Server 2012
- Week #3 (February 18-22): Windows Azure
- Week #4 (February 25-28): System Center 2012 App Controller
For example, we'll be covering topics such as installation requirements and issues, methods for upgrading-in-place or the migration of documents and settings, managing policy and permissions, etc.
"Who is 'we'? Who are the article authors?"
The authors are me and my amazing teammates – the other Microsoft DPE US IT Pro Technology Evangelists in the United States: Chris Avis, Harold Wong, Brian Lewis, Matt Hester, Keith Mayer, Dan Stolts, Bob Hunt, Yung Chou, Tommy Patterson, and Blain Barton.
And, as in the past, we will also occasionally call upon an MVP or other subject-matter expert to contribute.
"Are there any resources that I should have at-the-ready for doing exercises or walking through your step-by-step articles?"
GREAT question. Yes!
- Get your Windows 8 Enterprise Evaluation download here: http://aka.ms/win8Client
- Get Windows Server 2012 Evaluation (.ISO & pre-installed .VHD): http://aka.ms/Server2012
- Start a Windows Azure 90-day free trial: http://aka.ms/90DaysOfAzure
- Download the evaluation of System Center 2012 w/SP1: http://aka.ms/PvtCld
- Take advantage of FREE training at Microsoft Virtual Academy: http://aka.ms/MSVirtAcademy, and
- Take a stab at winning a trip to Las Vegas and the Microsoft Management Summit through the Cloud OS Trivia Challenge: http://aka.ms/CloudOSTrivia
So.. the series is "Migration and Deployment". The first article (Part 1) is coming on Monday, February 4. And we sincerely hope you enjoy it and will take advantage of the knowledge that we're sharing.
Until then - Have a great weekend!

Have you ever had someone ask to pick your brain? Sometimes they'll use those exact words, but other times it looks like this:
"Can I buy you coffee?"
"Are you available for a quick Skype call?"
"Can you help me real fast with just a couple questions?"
It's flattering and at the same time a very strange feeling. On the one hand, it feels good to be asked for advice, but on the other hand, something seems a bit weird about the exchange. Why does it feel weird?

33 year old man | Ankeny, IA, USA | Seeking women 26-36 within 30 miles
Hi :) I am sitting up late watching Netflix,...
Hi :) I am sitting up late watching Netflix, while paring down some photos from a wedding I photographed, and I decided to update and rewrite my profile. Here are some various things about me to get started: - I have one sibling; a sister that lives in Texas. - I finished both of my Master's degrees last year, at the same time, and I really enjoy having more free time and being done with school, although I love to learn. - All of my college degrees are from Iowa State University even though I grew up about 30-40 minutes from Iowa City and was raised a Hawk fan. - While I like many genres of music, I listen mostly to rock and country. I was very fortunate to see several really great shows this past Spring and Summer and captured some really fun photos during them. - I love to laugh, so I enjoy comedies, but love being drawn into a good drama or suspenseful flick as well. - I have 2 bikes that I like to ride; a mountain bike, and a new Elliptigo that I bought myself for my birthday. - I appreciate a healthy debate but hate arguing that leads to "negative town." - I feel completely horrible when I arrive late to anything so I always try to be early. - I eat very few sweets but I eat lots of fruit and love strawberries. - I love to travel and explore, even if it is just to get out of town for the weekend. - I think communication, trust, and affection are essential in a relationship, especially when establishing a strong foundation and getting to know someone. Please be a good kisser ;) I am hoping to connect with someone that shares similar interests and activities with me, and is interested in introducing each other to some new ones and trying some together. A great match would have a great sense of humor and able to take jokes and come back swingin'. I really don't have a long list of traits a match should have. I would rather just get to know someone and see if a connection grows. I apologize for not having a greater variety of photos; I am usually behind the camera rather than in front of it. I have purposely tried to keep my profile sort of short and sweet in the hopes that it sparks some curiosity and forces anyone that's interested to actually have a conversation and interact with me rather than simply reading words on a screen. If you are interested, please just message me; it doesn't have to be fancy, just introduce yourself and we can go from there. :)

The Times We Share by Tim015Watch
To see it twice is a blessing...
To see it three times is bittersweet...
Heh, I know it's been done to death, I just took too long to make it.
A major collaboration project between me and *Agamnentzar
Because of the large size of the source, I will only release it upon request.
I hope you like it, and sorry for my recent inactivity. Don't worry I have several major projects planned and a few commissions as well, so there won't be any shortage of art coming up
This is the music which gave me the inspiration to come up with the idea and the will to vector this comic: [link]
The angle you drew it from is also challenging perspective-wise seeing as their heads are the farthest part away.
There was only one problem I noticed, which was perspective (I notice this a lot because it is something I cannot get right lol, so I am always thinking about it now). The perspective was good for the first two, but it looks a little off in the bottom one with Twilights hoof touching the top of the hill. To me she looks the same size as in the previous panel, but is farther up the hill (especially her hoof), and has the same pose and size, so she looks sort of like she is floating in that panel.
Other than that it was very good.
Stargazing was one of my favourite things in the world, and it quickly became my all-time favourite thing after i met my Girlfriend (She loved stargazing as much as I did).
Back to the comic, the emotional impact on me was immense. It really struck my heartstrings to see this. I know the whole Twilight outliving her friends has been done to death, but this... is different some how. I don't know what, but it strikes me on a different level then most other works of a similar nature. All in all, a beautiful piece, easily deserving of five stars.
(Great image made it!)
That coolpanda girl needs to settle her shit down.
but hey, this is really nice! I love how you showed her ageing along with the other of the mane six.
(it punches right in the feels!! ;-; )
it's a good comic trip, we feel the impact for the characters and speccialy Twilight.
I really liked how you used body language to convey the character's emotions. The background is simple but very well executed.
I also loved the perspective on the Element of Magic.
Umm... I hope these were helpful. I'm kind of shy about critiquing.
*Man in brown trench coat walks up to her*
10th Doctor :Hello Twilight.
Twi: Hello Doctor, it's been quite along time.
10th Doctor: Yes it has. 140 years since we spoke.
I suppose you know why I'm here? *smiles*
Twi: Of course. All those years ago I asked you when
I see the comet the third time to take me back to see
my friends one last time; to know they were happy in the end
10th Doctor: Shall we get going? You've waited long enough.
Twi: Yes, we should. *Walks into the T.A.R.D.I.S*
Several minutes later... VWORP VWORP VWORP
Twi: Thank you, Doctor. I needed that. I can now go knowing they
are happy. I suppose this goodbye then Doctor?
10th Doctor: Maybe. Remember, time isn't a straight line so we can
never be sure. I might pop in again sometime. Until then, goodbye Twilight Sparkle.
Twi: Goodbye Doctor.

China's Answer to Pixar Unveils New 3-D Feature About Guardian Spirits
Mar 17, 2015 Wall Street Journal
Chinese web entrepreneur Gary Wang says though he's always admired Pixar, he wants to improve upon the Hollywood animation studio's model.
"The cost of Pixar's film [production] is too high," said Mr. Wang, who founded the video site Tudou.com in 2005, at the time China's largest. "We won't spend $100 million on a film but we also want to produce world-class work."Read More...
The Chinese animation firm aiming to rival Hollywood
Light Chaser Animation aims to make feature films to rival those of Hollywood studios Pixar and Dreamworks.
A familiar issue for many businesses these days is a scarcity of top talent.
Chinese film studio Light Chaser Animation has taken an unusual approach to help to solve this problem – it bought a robot.
The device is a "telepresence robot", which it acquired from California-based Double Robotics. It consists of a battery-powered mobile platform to which an iPad is attached.
The wi-fi controlled device can move around the company's offices and it allows animation director Colin Brady – who lives in Los Angeles and did not want to move to China – to communicate with the rest of the team in Beijing.

Animation Start-up 'Light Chaser' Scores Big Hit In China With First Short Film
Forbes 2014.3.27
Since its online release two weeks ago, the first short film from Gary Wang's Light Chaser Animation Studio has scored close to 30 million clicks on Chinese video sites. The three-minute 3D film titled "Little Yeyos", which means "Little Night Wanderers," tells the simple story of seven chubby and baby-faced fairies roughhousing over a light-reflecting lapel pin.
Chinese audience online has mostly praised the production quality of the short film, especially its visual effects and the vivacity of the characters. Yet many found the storyline too plain, and the fairies somewhat similar to the "minions" in "Despicable Me," except, the minions are cuter.Read More...

We often wonder what opposing teams, their beat reporters and bloggers are saying about the Celtics. Here's a look at some enemy chatter from Brooklyn. "Did you see Paul Pierce hit that pull-up 3-pointer (with 24 seconds left to get them within two)?" Johnson asked reporters. "I had in my mind that he was probably gonna do it again, so I played the foul game. It's a coaching decision. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't." Teams don't normally foul in a two-possession game. So why would Johnson? Does he not trust his defense? "It's not about trust. It's a strategy. You do what you gotta do to win, and that's what we thought was the appropriate strategy," he replied. The strategy ended up working because Deron Williams and Joe Johnson went 7-for-8 from the charity line in the final 43 seconds to secure the win. ESPN New York It was Paul Pierce's two missed free throws before that pull-up three pointer that altered the course of the game. Those makes would have kept it a on

Is this the future? A simple method for performance-based smart grid regulation
Editor's note: Paul Alvarez, a consultant with deep experience evaluating smart grid performance, recently told us why we should switch to performance-based regulation and then suggested a better way to do smart grid cost recovery. In this final installment of his series, Paul addresses some of the more common smart grid performance metrics regulators are requesting and offers interesting perspectives for Smart Grid News readers.
By Paul Alvarez
In previous contributions to Smart Grid News, I've made the case for performance-based recovery of IOUs' smart grid investments. I've suggested they incorporate both rewards (incentives) and risks (penalties) for shareholders. My premise was that capital investment does not make a grid smart; the value comes from the way utilities make use of the resulting new data and capabilities.
In short, I've argued that regulated utilities should be rewarded not for simply making smart grid investments but for maximizing smart grid value (by completing difficult organizational, operational, data utilization and customer-facing changes). I've also described some of the more desirable characteristics of performance-based recovery of smart grid costs, including risk/reward symmetry and the appropriate sizing of risks and rewards relative to the size of investments. I also described the approaches that Ohio, Oklahoma, Maryland, and Illinois were using to introduce performance-based cost recovery risks and rewards for IOUs.
A discussion on performance-based cost recovery leads logically into a conversation about how performance should be measured. Though only a few states are dabbling in performance-based cost recovery so far, several states are requiring IOUs to report on specific deployment and performance metrics. In this final installment in my three-part series I'll characterize and review some of the more common metrics regulators are requiring of IOUs making large smart grid investments.
Deployment metrics
Some of the most common types of metrics relate to deployment, including cost and schedule. Perhaps the single most common metric measures deployment costs relative to capital budgets or business plans. In many cases, regulators have set caps on smart grid deployment cost, placing utilities at risk for any cost overruns. However, as such caps do not specify associated minimum capabilities, it may be possible for a utility to simply cut back on planned functionality if cost overruns are encountered during the course of a deployment.
Other regulators are understandably interested in the status of deployments relative to planned schedules. Schedule metrics provide a reference point by which to evaluate deployment costs incurred to date, but are also being used by a few wise regulators to help them anticipate (and perhaps help accelerate) the point in time when smart grid investments can be expected to begin delivering economic, reliability, and customer service benefits. These regulators recognize that customer payback periods can be affected by delays in the delivery of economic benefits as well as by more common concerns about the size of such benefits. The Maryland PSC requires the utilities it regulates to report on almost 90 deployment metrics.
IOUs are understandably concerned that the proliferation of different metrics and objectives can dilute management focus, hamper identification of best practices, and increase costs. As smart grid operating experience grows, it is becoming increasingly clear that a limited number of consistently-defined deployment and performance metrics covering only the most significant economic, reliability, and customer service benefits (the 80/20 rule) could increase (and more clearly document) the value created by smart grid investments. As an example, my experience leading independent deployment evaluations indicates that 80-90% of the smart grid's economic benefit potential comes from just 3 sources (manual meter reading savings; TOU rates/Demand Response; and Integrated Volt/VAr Control). By adding some metrics on customer services and a few standardized reliability metrics, a simple performance metric system should accomplish most of what regulators and other stakeholders are seeking. The next step is to address regulatory structures and rules that inhibit IOUs from maximizing smart grid benefits, but that is a subject for another day.
It's natural for regulators to be interested in using deployment and performance metrics to encourage the utilities they regulate to maximize the benefits of smart grid investments. But stakeholder opinions and concerns are many, and it's impractical to design a metrics system that addresses everything. What do you believe are the most critical metrics? How do you think they should they be used? And whom do you believe should take the lead in developing a standardized set of metrics? We're still early in the smart grid evolution, so please post comments to share your ideas on this important issue.
Paul Alvarez is the President of the Wired Group, a distribution business consultancy with a focus on smart grid benefit quantification and performance measurement. He has led teams that have completed comprehensive, independent evaluations of smart grid deployments for Xcel Energy (SmartGridCity) and the Ohio PUC (Duke Energy's Ohio deployment).

And he's only going to adress Marty's on-air comments if he feals/has evidence that Marty is effecting the bottom line of the Reds. While some here can make a case that "talking down the economy" occurs due to Marty, unless he really is effecting the teams profits BCast isn't going to put a muzzle on him, and might actually create a backlash were he to do so.
The #1 reason casual fans have stayed away from the ballpark has been because the Reds have sucked. If Marty starts praising Dunn daily, but the Reds still suck, it's not going to convince people to come to the ballpark. Only sustained/consistent winning will do that.

Our soldiers pawns of arrogant officeholder
Published: Sunday, January 23, 2005 at 6:01 a.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, January 22, 2005 at 11:49 p.m.
I sat up the other night holding my baby daughter, watching the "Nightline" report on the six local soldiers killed while on patrol in Iraq. All were men about my age or even younger. I cried. A lot of things to write ran through my head as I watched: political things, angry things, sad things. I composed letter after letter in my mind.
But there's nothing left to say, really.
One thing that occurred to me, however, was that when we flick the switches in our voting booths, we need to remember that it's not over when the curtains open and we step out. The men we put in office are there for a good, long time, and they sometimes don't get any smarter or any more humble during their terms. In some tragic cases, they get dumber and more arrogant the longer they hold office.
And as we have just learned -- as Vietnam vets learned almost 40 years ago -- it can be deadly business serving under arrogant leaders.
I am proud of my hometown and my home state and the Louisiana National Guard. It makes me angry and sick to see the brave, tough men of Louisiana used like game pieces in a horrible war based on lies and political sleight-of-hand.

The problem is, that oftentimes our resumes manage to look the same anywa...

Executive Job Hunting? You'll Need More Than a Resume

Better life@work Tip: Be a Good Delegator

Delegation is an art that requires practice and commitment, and therefore time. Many of us feel that we don't even have a spare minute to pet the dog, so delegating remains a pipe dream. Don't confuse delegating with dumping. Dumping work involves taking your most tedious or least appealing projects and handing them over to someone with little thought or explanation. Dumping work gives you the illusion of efficiency, until...

"Moving from NC, the most critical factor for my new residence was proximity to a good Crossfit box. Crossfit Woodbridge was recommended to me and so I gave it a shot. I was skeptical that I would get the same results and satisfaction from this box. However, in the past four months I have exceeded my goals and made great gains. As a member with unlimited access, I am able to access the Crossfit side and the Strong Side. I just finished the Olympic Weight Lifting seminar and by focusing strictly on technique first and foremost before weight, I was able to set new personal records that I didn't think were possible otherwise. I am now in the Power Lifting seminar and looking to see what I can accomplish from there. This box is a great investment for anyone looking to try Crossfit for the first time or moving on from another box."

25 year old man | Seattle, WA, USA | Seeking men 25-35 within 10 miles
Active within 5 days
Goofy, spontaneous sidekick looking for someone who's always up for an adventure.
Moved to Seattle by way of Los Angeles last year. After one very long winter, I'm definitely happy to see the sun again! I was born and raised in Chicago, I'm a huge sports fan and I love to be active. I played a Division 1 sport in college, now I'm a runner. However, I also love to eat (internal struggles, right?), and you're just as likely to see me on my couch with a snack and some wine. I make a great sidekick, and I always try to see the bright side (though that doesn't mean that I'm 100% successful). I'm organized, I have my shit together, and I'm ambitious -- and I'm looking for someone who's on the same page. I love traveling and seeing different cultures. I've been to 50 countries and six continents (bonus points if you can guess which one I haven't done -- and no, it's not Antarctica), but I think a quick road trip is just as fun. Other than that, I'm an open book! Feel free to ask away.
