How Moving Can Trigger Depression in Children

Learn to spot the symptoms and ease the transition

When it comes to moving, depression in your child may not be a concern that first comes to mind. However, some research shows that moving, especially the transition to a new school, may lead to depressive symptoms in a child.

This is, of course, only a possibility. Though research shows a connection between moving and depression in children, that doesn't mean that every child will be impacted by a move in this way.

You have to make decisions that are right for you and your family and that might just be making a move. Fortunately, there are a few things that you and other concerned parents can do to ensure a smooth transition for your child and a happy life in her new home.

Factors That May Impact Your Child When You Move

Sometimes the details of a move are non-negotiable, but if there is some flexibility in your situation, there are a few factors that can make the transition easier for your child. Whenever possible, keep your child at the same school or a school in the same district. Research has found that moving schools can be particularly difficult for children in the elementary and middle school years.

If your child has previously fallen behind academically, moving to a more advanced curriculum may overwhelm her -- or even cause her to fall further behind. For a child, academic failure can be devastating to self-esteem. Low self-esteem is common among depressed children.

If you are moving as the result of a divorce or other family restructuring, you will need to be especially sensitive to your child's needs and feelings. Your child will not only be adjusting to a new home and environment but a new family structure. A move combined with a change in the family could be traumatic for a child and trigger feelings of insecurity, isolation or anger, which are often seen in depression. Keeping your child's routine, as much as possible, may help keep a sense of stability in her life.

While it is important for your child to make new friends in her new environment, it is also important for her to maintain old friendships. Allow your child to communicate and see her old friends whenever possible. The more relationships that your child has, the more she will feel supported and confident in her ability to make new friends. A child who has no peers to connect with may begin to withdraw from school and social activities.

Children who have had previous mental health illness, especially depression, are more likely to have another period of depression. According to Dr. Karl Alexander and colleagues, who published a study in the Journal of Educational Research in 1996, moving is a significant life stressor for children. Their findings reveal that moving schools can be as traumatic as having a parent hospitalized for a serious medical illness.

Some children, especially those with a past mental health illness, are prone to depression as a result of stress. Be on alert for signs and symptoms and consider speaking with your child's therapist about a care plan before you leave. You may also want to ask for a referral to a new provider in your new town.

How Parents Can be Proactive

Joining local groups and reaching out to new people will show your child that she is not alone in starting over. Allow your child to openly talk about her feelings about the move and be sympathetic to her fears. Also, be sure to not to let your own anxiety about the move scare your child.

If you know that your move will come with additional stressors, consider starting your child in counseling. This could be especially helpful if she has had past episodes of depression.

When it May Be Depression

Unfortunately for some children, the stress of a move may trigger symptoms of depression. As such, parents should be aware of the symptoms in children, which may include:

It is normal for a child to be nervous about a move. She may need more attention and reassurance for the first few weeks of the transition. She may even have a brief disturbance of sleep, which should return to normal without treatment in several days.

If you notice any symptoms of depression, new or unexplained behaviors in your child, it is important to consult with your child's physician. A physician can determine a cause and treatment, if appropriate. It is extremely important to identify and treat depression early in children.

Sono Beach

Sono Beach, nestled on the Atlantic Ocean just south of Paraty, is not your typical coastal destination. Visitors to the somewhat secluded shores of this remote beach need to be up for more than just lazily lounging on sun-kissed sand while sipping frosty tropical drinks. That’s because Sono is accessible only by boat or bus, and travelers who opt for the latter also commit to an hour-long hike through the overgrown rainforest that stands between the main road and the shores of Sono Beach. Visitors rave about the scenic views, which are best from the hilltops where hikers ascend, and travelers love that the shores—and the handful of local restaurants that dot the coast—are never crowded.

Practical Info

Sono Beach is located in Laranjeiras and accessible via the 1050 bus line. Visitors can skip the hike by hopping aboard one of the local boats that sail to Sono, which costs about 40 reals. Travelers who enjoy walking can also follow rainforest trails to Antigos Beach and Ponta Negros.

Constructionist Manifesto

Starting my work term at Vigilant Management was a lot like having one piece left in a puzzle, I knew it was going to be a perfect fit. During my interview, I told Vigilant as a work term student I was trying to expose myself to multiple industries before graduation and Vigilant is proving to be a great place for me to be. Every day I find myself on one or two construction sites taking notes and addressing potential problems. In the office I’m reviewing drawings, reading specifications, and using CAD.

Looking back on the interview that led to my employment, there is one question that stands out. I was asked “If you were here by yourself and the only other person in the office was the President and there was an urgent issue that you couldn’t solve, what would you do?” Now this question seems laughable. There is no one at Vigilant Management who isn’t ready to talk and help me with any issue that I don’t feel I can handle by myself. I don’t just ask Lloyd if a specification should be included in the project document, I also ask him if he saw the Jays game. Coming to Vigilant after working for a company with over 50 000 employees is a real change of gears. It’s strange, but how it should be, that titles at Vigilant are formalities because in the end we are 13 professionals trying to change the construction industry.

Tulare Union grinded out a 1-0 win over rival Tulare Western on Wednesday in an East Yosemite League game. Wochit

When Martin Tran stepped onto the Tulare Western High campus in the fall of 2015, he was just another freshman.

It was different when he stepped foot on the tennis courts, though.

Two seasons later, Tran will leave Tulare Western as one of the most decorated players to come through the program.

With Tran as the face of the team for the past three seasons, the Mustangs have enjoyed unprecedented success.

As a freshman, he helped direct the Mustangs to their first East Yosemite League team championship in school history. Tulare Western was founded in 1959.

And this season, Tran has turned in one of the most successful individual campaigns in memory while also guiding the Mustangs to their second EYL title in the past three years.

As a junior, Tran became the first Mustangs' player, ever, to capture the EYL individual championship when he defeated Tulare Union's Jesus Andrade in late April.

"Without Martin, who knows where we would be, to be honest with you," Tulare Western third-year head coach Michael Sozinho said. "He's been a big part of this. He's also made other people better. Everybody tries to up their game because they want to hit with Martin. It's helped everybody."

Making history

In Sozinho's first season as head coach in 2016, he began the team's first official practice with rackets by separating the returners from the new players.

After Sozinho saw Tran hit the ball, he asked the then-freshman to join the returners.

And it didn't take very long for Tran to stand out amongst his peers despite the Mustangs fielding a senior-heavy team.

Sozinho pulled Tran aside along with three others to reveal they were going to be his top four players on the singles ladder.

But Sozinho had other news.

He told Tran he was going to play sophomore Scott Bell for the No. 1 spot.

Tran won and secured his position as the Mustangs best player.

"Martin got in there right with them," Sozinho said. "He never backed down. He was able to hit at their level, even higher. Everybody was kind of taken aback, 'Where did this kid come from?' "

During the preseason, Tran's impact was felt right away but he did experience his fair share of growing pains, Sozinho said.

However, by the time EYL action rolled around, Tran morphed into a different player.

"When we started playing league and something clicked," Sozinho said. "He was just super confident. He was talking to guys. Helping them out more and just realizing that everyone was OK with him being at the top."

As the team's ace, the Mustangs made history and won the outright EYL title with a 9-1 record.

Martin culminated his freshman season with a 9-6 individual record.

"It was a magical season," Sozinho said. "We talked about it from day one at practice, 'We're going to make history. You guys are going to be a part of something special if you trust everything we tell you, we're going to do it.' To see everybody buy-in and not one player complaining about their spots, especially with a freshman playing above seniors, to get that first one was super special."

Riding off into the sunset

Tran's father, Kiet, who played one season of college tennis at Cal Poly, introduced his son to the sport when he was 6-years old.

But he didn't start playing competitively until he was 11.

It really wasn't until he arrived at Tulare Western that Tran fell in love with tennis.

Tran began his career with a bang but his sophomore year didn't quite live up to his own expectations and standards.

In 2017, the Mustangs finished the EYL season with a pedestrian 5-5 record and Tran wrapped up that year with an 18-7 mark in singles.

That up-and-down season was a humbling experience but his teammates helped him get through the tough times.

"The team has really helped me mature, especially during my sophomore year when we didn't win league," Tran said. "I got a taste of what it's like to lose and not win that title. That year really matured me."

With his sophomore season behind him, at the team's banquet, Tran challenged his teammates to work harder in the offseason: "You guys have my number. Just hit me up. We can't just train individually and slack off. We have to train together. That's how we're going to win together."

And the team rose to the occasion.

In the summer, Tran and the Mustangs, including his neighbor Bell, focused on honing their craft at the Centennial Park tennis courts in Tulare.

With a higher commitment to the sport, the Mustangs claimed a co-EYL championship with the Delano Tigers. Both teams posted a 9-1 record.

"Even though freshman year was the first time winning it, I think this year would be my favorite year," Tran said. "It was very special. Looking back, I'll be really happy."

The end is near for Tran.

In June, Tran will be moving to Texas to be with his family.

Because Tran wanted to finish up his junior year at Tulare Western, in November, his family made arrangements for him to stay with the Bells until he completed school.

Tran will wrap up his Mustangs' career this weekend.

He qualified for the CIF Central Section Singles Tournament at Madera South High School. The 16-player tournament begins play Friday and Saturday.

The EYL champion Tran earned the No. 12 seed and will clash with fifth-ranked Jeremiah Yang, of Sanger, on Friday. Match time is 1 p.m.

Martin has amassed an overall 49-16 singles record and is 22-3 this season.

"He's by far the greatest tennis player that has ever played for this school," Sozinho said. "I can say that without a doubt. There's a been a lot of players the last few years. And I'm sure before me, there were some decent players, but nobody has done what he's done. He has two team titles and one individual title. No one else can say that. He's definitely set the standard, just how to prepare. Obviously, he's very talented, it doesn't happen magically, but he prepares and he helps his teammates out and all that. But he's definitely the model for what we want. We want somebody who's focused, who's serious and wants to win while taking care of business."

Trump Fires Tillerson, Picks CIA Chief Pompeo to Succeed Him

FILE - A combination photo shows U.S. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson (L), and Central Intelligence Agency Director Mike Pompeo.

President Donald Trump has fired his Secretary of State Rex Tillerson and picked CIA director Mike Pompeo to replace him.

Trump has also nominated Gina Haspel, the current deputy director at the Central Intelligence Agency, to replace Pompeo at the CIA.

Hours later, Tillerson appeared at the State Department and said "effective at the end of the day" he is delegating all authority to Deputy Secretary of State John Sullivan. Tillerson said he is formally stepping down at the end of the month and stressed the importance of a smooth transition to his successor.

Trump told reporters Tuesday morning he and Tillerson “have been talking about this for a long time,” and they “got along quite well”, but they have a different mindset and different thinking.

Departure Messaging

Trump's differences with Tillerson appeared to extend to the logistics of his announced departure, with the State Department and White House issuing contradictory accounts over when the secretary was fired.

A senior administration official tells VOA News that “it’s not true” that Tillerson learned of his firing via Twitter, insisting that the secretary of state, while in Africa, was informed by the White House Chief of Staff, John Kelly, last Friday that he was being removed from the Cabinet post he has held for 14 months.

Kelly “followed up” with another phone call on Saturday, according to the official, who spoke on the condition of not being identified.

Tillerson cut short his five-nation trip by one day and reporters who traveled with him on his plane say the secretary spoke of continuing his diplomatic work, giving no indication he was being fired.

The undersecretary for public affairs at the State Department, Steve Goldstein, offered a different account of Tillerson's departure.

"The Secretary did not speak to the president and is unaware of the reason (for his firing), but he is grateful for the opportunity to serve,” Goldstein said.

Goldstein was fired by the White House shortly after issuing the statement.

Tillerson announced he was handing over his duties at the end of the day to Sullivan and would be formally stepping down at the end of the month. He stressed the importance of a smooth transition to Pompeo.

Impact on North Korea, Iran?

In remarks to reporters Tuesday, President Trump highlighted his differences with Tillerson on Iran and North Korea.

Trump pointed out he did not discuss much with Tillerson regarding his decision to meet with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un. “I made that decision by myself, Rex wasn’t, as you know, in the country. I made the North Korea decision with consultations from many people, but I made that decision by myself,” he said.

A senior White House official also said Tuesday Tillerson's ouster occurred at this time because Trump wanted to "have his new team in place in advance of the upcoming talks with North Korea and various ongoing trade negotiations."

The president said they also disagreed on the 2015 Iran nuclear accord.

“When you look at the Iran deal, I think it’s terrible, I guess he thought it’s okay. I want to either break it or do something and he felt a little bit differently, so we were not really thinking the same.”

During the Obama administration, the U.S. and other major powers struck the deal in which Tehran agreed to limit its nuclear program in exchange for the easing of international economic sanctions. President Trump has repeatedly criticized the agreement as a bad deal and threatened to dismantle it.

Autumn/Winter 2010 Ready-To-Wear

location Lake Como, 27 Feb 2010

THE time will come again when winter coats are top of our shopping lists and after this winter, we'd do well to make it a serious investment piece. Look no further then, than <a href="">MaxMara, where the generous cashmere pieces were as full as they were long, elegantly sweeping down the catwalk from high, upturned collars.

Zoe Saldana, of Avatar fame, in the front row suggested that while this label is one of Milan's more luxurious and well established, it is, too, of the moment. While it couldn't be called otherworldly, this collection had a graphic modernity that when not confined by over zealous military references, successfully embraced the MaxMara elegance.

Fur mittens and flashes of metallic lame made for newsworthy details, while Aztec print knits, shearling and funnel collars ticked those particular trend boxes and a gold and white embroidered and embellished coat and dress that came out to close the show were beautifully lavish.

Kick pleats sprung out of the back of pencil skirts, trousers were full at the thigh and tucked into knee length leather boots and skirts were just about the longest we've seen so far.

Purse belts brought to mind gun holsters and some military dresses were just too stiff to look comfortable - but the coats, in hooded corduroy, double breasted, belted navy or full skirted frock style, should be one of the first choices next time snow is forecast.

Charles L. Waechter - The Premiere Criminal Defense Firm

Law enforcement conference focuses on impaired driving issues

Last month, law enforcement officers from across the state attended the first ever Maryland Impaired Driving Conference in Ocean City. The gathering, which was attended by 200 officers and deputies, focused specifically on drunk-driving enforcement.

The conference reportedly focused on training law enforcement in new procedures for enforcing drunk-driving and included information on how to write better reports, testify better in court, better identify impaired drivers, and making more effective arrests. All of this, of course, is a good thing.

Keeping drunk drivers off our roads is a goal everybody can get behind, but it is also important that officers do their job both effectively and legally. Regardless of the law enforcement strategies that are being used, officers are required to abide by the limitations built into the procedures they are using.

For instance, officers must always have sufficient cause before stopping a vehicle to determine whether the driver is impaired. Officers must also not exceed the scope of their authority when it comes to searching vehicles and persons. When a search warrant is required, officers must obtain them. When conducting DUI checkpoints, officers are required to abide by associated constitutional requirements.

One of the particular focuses of the convention was on more effectively identifying drugged drivers. This is an important issue, not only because of the increasing prevalence of drugged driving, but also because of the potential for error in police investigation. We’ll speak a bit about this issue in our next post.

As painful as it is to damage a prop, when it comes to the performance of your boat, it's important that the propeller be perfectly shaped and balanced. We came across this video today that is a perfect example of how not to repair your prop; when it comes to your boat's performance, some things are better left to the professionals.

Keep in mind that modern CNC propellers from both ACME Propellers and OJ Propellers are accurate to 1/1000", that's what makes them run so incredibly smooth. If you think you can anywhere close to that with a hammer, think again!

More than 300 cannabis plants have been discovered by police at a South Wales caravan site.

Officers executed a warrant at Millstream Way in Llansamlet, Swansea, after receiving a tip-off from the public about suspicious activity at the site.

The police helicopter was used to locate a cannabis-growing operation in the area. A total of nine separate growing locations were discovered with over 250 plants seized. An investigation into the seizure is continuing.

Related: Police close down nine cannabis factories over three days

Local policing sergeant Steve Pritchard said: “Officers have acted on information from the community to dismantle a substantial cannabis growing operation at this location.

“Members of the public should report any information in relation to drugs to their local neighbourhood policing team, all information will be treated confidentially. No matter how insignificant or significant you may feel the information is, we want to know and we will act on that information.”

The Vietnamese in Northern Virginia will continue to use the Page Elementary School in Arlington as a community center through the summer.

The center's lease will expire June 30, but Arlington's school board and County Board recently agreed to allow the center to operate in part of Page School through Aug. 31 while the Vietnamese find another location for their center. The Page building will be used as an alternative elementary school in September.

Nguyen Ngoe Bich, spokesman for the Vietnamese community, said he is considering the Hoffman-Boston School in Arlington as a potential location for the community center. The school is now used as a recreation center. Bich feels that the site, near Washington Boulevard and Columbia Pike, would be a central location for the Vietnamese population in the area. Another advantage of the Hoffman-Boston School is that it has tennis courts, a soccer field and other recreational facilities, he said.

"But from the financial point of view . . . I have some reservation," Bich said. The rental cost estimated by the Arlington school board is roughly $300 per classroom per month, Bich said.

"The (Arlington school) board itself looks with favor on what we are trying to do," said Bich. "But they are concerned that their financial ends meet, too." Bich said he hopes to negotiate a lease with lower rent by the end of summer.

The three-month extension at Page School will serve as a transitional period. Bich hopes "to avoid too brusque a move elsewhere. We want to make the move smooth as possible."

When a new center is established, it will include a sports center, library, offices and meeting rooms, said Bich, who hopes it will later serve as a day care facility as well.Also proposed is a program geared to upgrade the skills of Vietnamese whose training and education in Vietnam are of little value in the U.S. job market. Birch said Vietnamese lawyers, teachers and pharmacists have an especially hard time finding jobs in their fields in the United States. But through the proposed program a Vietnamese-trained lawyer, for example, might become "at least a paralegal," he said.

Another long-range goal for the community center, once it is relocated, is to offer a mental health counseling program, said Bich.

ANNAPOLIS, JAN. 6 -- Shorthanded in the middle of a season that doesn't promise to make anyone forget a certain San Antonio Spur-to-be, Navy could be forgiven for becoming single-minded on offense. The Midshipmen took that attitude to the extreme tonight as Byron Hopkins was the go-to man for seven minutes and Cliff Rees nearly the entire offense thereafter, but it worked as the Midshipmen beat Lafayette, 70-53, to win their second consecutive game for the first time this season.

The Midshipmen (3-6) used a 9-0 burst midway through the second half to take a 16-point lead and coast. Strangely, Rees scored only four points on the decisive run -- strange because he had 16 of Navy's 18 second-half points to that time. In all, he scored a career-high 30, including five three-pointers, on 11 of 20 shooting and had 22 of Navy's 39 points in the second half.

"We had a lot to overcome tonight," he said. "You look around, and this wasn't the lineup we expected to have on the floor when the year started. It's just a credit to all the young guys who are coming through."

The Midshipmen lost forward Derric Turner, who had arthroscopic surgery on his dislocated knee last night, in Monday's victory over The Citadel. Freshman center Darren Morningstar remains on suspension by the Academy, with Coach Pete Herrmann only willing to offer that the situation will be reviewed by week's end.

So the void certainly exists for Rees, the captain and only senior, to fill. He scored the Midshipmen's first 13 points of the second half after shooting three for 11 as Navy scratched out a 41-37 lead at the intermission. "I was forcing too much in the first half," he said. "Even without Derric, I have to make sure my role doesn't change and I don't try to do too much. Byron was scoring inside early and that should've opened things up for me, but I didn't get going until I relaxed later."

Indeed, it looked early on as if Hopkins would be the one to take up the slack. Navy jumped in front quickly behind his inspired inside play at both ends. He scored eight of Navy's first 15 points on inside power moves, and three times blocked forward Otis Ellis.

"That was the key, getting Byron going early," Herrmann said. "We thought we could dump it inside against their zone and get Cliff free for his jumpers, but if we hadn't converted early inside they would've shut down Cliff."

Not all of Ellis' inside craftiness ended in Hopkins' rejections. Ellis, who entered the game averaging 17.1 points and 7.3 rebounds, provided three three-point plays in the first 11 minutes with a variety of hanging, double-clutch moves in the lane.

Sharon questioned in funding scandals

JERUSALEM — Israeli police questioned Prime Minister Ariel Sharon for seven hours yesterday over political-funding scandals that could dent his widespread public support among Israelis.

Police are investigating the leader and his two sons over a $1.5 million loan from a South Africa-based friend. The loan was used as collateral to repay what judicial authorities found to have been illegal contributions to Mr. Sharon’s campaign for election as Likud party chief in 1999.

Andreotti cleared on murder charges

ROME — Italy’s highest court yesterday overturned a murder conviction against former Prime Minister Giulio Andreotti, ruling that he had not ordered the Mafia killing of a journalist.

The Court of Cassation annulled a verdict by a lower court in November that had convicted the 84-year-old senator-for-life and sentenced him to 24 years in prison.

Mr. Andreotti’s lawyers took the case to the top after an appeals court in the central city of Perugia had overturned an initial not-guilty verdict and found him guilty of ordering the 1979 killing of tabloid journalist Mino Pecorelli.

U.S. recovers remains of MIAs

TOKYO — Eight sets of remains believed to be those of U.S. soldiers missing in action from the Korean War have been flown from North Korea to Japan, military officials said.

The remains were brought by C-130 military transport aircraft Tuesday from Pyongyang to Yokota Air Base on the outskirts of Tokyo, a U.S. military spokeswoman said.

After a repatriation ceremony, the remains — recovered from two sites in North Korea — were to be taken to a forensics laboratory in Hawaii for identification.

Scholar’s ashes buried in mountains

BEIRUT — The ashes of Edward Said, the Columbia University literary scholar and America’s foremost advocate for the Palestinian cause, were buried in the mountains of Lebanon at a private ceremony yesterday, Lebanon’s official news agency said.

Mr. Said died at a New York hospital Sept. 25 after a bout with leukemia. He was 67. He specified in his will that he wanted to be buried in Lebanon, where he spent part of his youth.

$18 million pledged for war-crimes court

THE HAGUE — The United States and 29 other countries pledged $18.4 million yesterday to create a war-crimes court in Bosnia that will lighten the load at the U.N. tribunal in the Netherlands.

The United States — which is also the largest funder of the war-crimes tribunal for Yugoslavia in The Hague — will give $11 million to support the new War Crimes Chamber. It will operate within Bosnia’s state court system and prosecute lower-level offenders from the 1992-95 Bosnian War.

FRANKFURT — This city’s main railway station, at the heart of the German rail system, closed for about two hours yesterday after a bomb threat, which was likely to cause major delays across the entire national network.

Transport police said a man with a foreign accent telephoned the central police office in Frankfurt and warned a bomb would explode at the station. Bomb disposal experts failed to find one.

- Associated Press - Monday, April 14, 2014

CLARKSVILLE, Tenn. (AP) - A cat in Middle Tennessee has survived being shot in the head by a hunting arrow.

The animal’s owner, Jane Holt, told The Leaf-Chronicle (https://leafne.ws/1hBBoYs) that she found Simon outside her Clarksville home on Saturday with the arrow protruding from his head.

“It was right by his ear; half was sticking out one side and half was sticking out the other,” she said. “It was like he was running away.”

She says she took the arrow out, and then she took him to Family Pet Hospital, where he was treated by Sarah Bendorf.

“He’s a lucky guy,” Bendorf said. “I’ve never seen a cat with an injury this bad, doing so well. He’s lucky it missed everything vital, especially being shot in the head.”

Holt, meanwhile, said she doesn’t understand how someone could hit her cat with an arrow. She said she reported the incident to police and hopes to find out who did it.

“He’s doing OK now,” she said. “But it’s good to make people aware when something like this happens because somebody might mention or hear something that could help find who did this.”

CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) - Charlotte-Mecklenburg police say a newly hired 29-year-old cadet is dead after collapsing during training.

Multiple media organizations report that the potential officer died Tuesday as he and fellow incoming officers were going through state-mandated physical fitness.

The police department identifies the trainee hired last week as Jeremy Moseley. He was pronounced dead at Carolinas Medical Center.

North Korea summit: Watch the dramatic video that Trump played for Kim Jong Un

WATCH: President Trump Plays Video for Kim Jong Un Before Press Conference

By Michelle Ewing, Cox Media Group National Content Desk

A movie-trailer style video that President Donald Trump shared with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un on Tuesday is making headlines for adding a dramatic flair to the countries' historic summit in Singapore.

>> Jamie Dupree: Details of the joint agreement from the Trump-Kim summit

"Two men, two leaders, one destiny. A story about a special moment in time when a man is presented with one chance which may never be repeated. What will he choose – to show vision and leadership or not?" a narrator says in the video, which includes clips of smiling people, new technology, skyscrapers and natural resources before transitioning, ominously, to explosions.

>> North Korea summit: 5 key moments from Trump's press conference

"There can only be two results: one of moving back or one of moving forward," the voice continues. "A new world can begin today – one of friendship, respect and goodwill. Be part of that world, where the doors of opportunity are ready to be opened – investment from around the world, where you can have medical breakthroughs, an abundance of resources, innovative technology and new discoveries."

Later, the narrator appeals to Kim: "Will this leader choose to advance his country and be part of a new world? Be the hero of his people? Will he shake the hand of peace and enjoy prosperity like he has never seen? A great life or more isolation? Which path will be chosen?"

Trump also showed the video to reporters at a news conference Tuesday.

"I think he loved it," Trump said of Kim and his entourage, adding that they seemed "fascinated by it."

"I showed it because I really want him to do something," Trump said, according to The Associated Press.

We love this place! It was a really nice place for our guests to stay to be close to our wedding venue. Having the pub downstairs was perfect for gathering everyone together the night before the wedding. I booked the biggest suite they had for myself. It was the perfect place to get ready with all my girls and my hair and makeup team, and it was perfect later for my new hubby and I!
Everyone from the front desk clerks, to the bartender at the pub, and the concierge were so nice and accommodating. They took care of some last minute details that I had overlooked in my wedding planning haze, like meals for the day of! I had breakfast sent up and later we had champagne and mimosas with sandwiches sent up for the girls and I when we were getting glammed up. Ryan was so helpful especially. My hairdresser needed some taller chairs brought up so she could have us at a better height and Ryan brought them right up. We had an excellent experience here!

I cannot say enough good things about Salem Waterfront Hotel. Our wedding this past weekend was the best day EVER and it was all thanks to Caitlyn and everyone else at the hotel.

First, they were so easy to work with, very responsive and flexible. They made sure we got exactly what we wanted and adapted their packages to fit our wishes. Not to mention, they did so at a great price we were comfortable with. The planning and tasting could not have been smoother.

When the weekend arrived, we had our rehearsal and rehearsal dinner on Friday at the hotel in the Regatta Pub. The food was so delicious (italian buffet), the bartenders and waitstaff were friendly, fun, and excited for us. Everyone complimented this welcome event.

On the day of the wedding, Caitlyn was there for me, my husband, the bridal party, and our family every step of the way - we didn't have to worry about a thing. The hotel rooms were beautiful and spacious for us to get ready in and the room service was awesome. The ceremony went off without a hitch and afterward my husband and I had time to relax in the pub and Caitlyn delivered us our own tray of appetizers (scallops wrapped in bacon were out of this world) and drinks so we could regroup for the reception. When we walked into the reception I was SO happy with the way they set up all the decor and made everything look exactly as I had imagined and wanted. Lastly, the food was AMAZING. We went with the filet and baked haddock and everyone gave compliments on how it turned out.

It truly was the best day and I am so happy we chose to have our wedding at the Salem Waterfront Hotel. Thank you so much again to Caitlyn and all the staff at the hotel and in the Pub. We can't wait to come back for our anniversary!
