Lee Kuan Yew: 李光耀： Air conditioning was a most important invention for us, perhaps one of the signal inventions of history. 空调对我们来说是一项极其重要的发明，或许也是人类历史上具有里程碑意义的发明之一。 It changed the nature of civilization by making development possible in the tropics. 它让热带地区的发展成为可能，从而改变了人类文明的发展方式。 Without air conditioning you can work only in the cool early-morning hours or at dusk. 没有空调，人们只能在清晨或傍晚较凉爽的时候工作。 The first thing I did upon becoming prime minister was to install air conditioners in buildings where the civil service worked. 我就任总理后做的第一件事，就是为公务员办公的大楼安装空调。 This was key to public efficiency.” 这是提升政府行政效率的关键。

I’m Free. Now Pray for China by Ezra Jin via @WSJopinion 【金明日牧师获释后首次接受华尔街日报采访（后附中文）/ Rev. Mingri (Ezra) Jin’s first interview with WSJ after his release】 Pastor Ezra Jin: I’m Free. Now Pray for China Eight members of the church I founded are still behind bars. By Ezra Jin July 8, 2026 at 5:02 pm ET I spent 266 days in a Chinese prison after being detained along with 28 other leaders and members of Zion Church in October. When guards ushered me into a van last Friday, I thought they were taking me to my trial. I expected a long sentence for founding and leading Zion, one of China’s underground, or house, churches. But hours later, I was free. No negotiations, no confession, all charges dropped. On the eve of America’s 250th anniversary, I was reunited with the family I hadn’t seen in eight years, ever since my wife and children came to the U.S. to get out of harm’s way. My wife, like me, is a Chinese national, but our children are all U.S. citizens. It was disorienting to go from a crowded prison cell to watching Fourth of July fireworks with my family over In-N-Out burgers. My gratitude goes first to President Trump, whose diplomacy secured my release, as well as to the members of Congress and other U.S. officials who worked on my behalf. I have been overwhelmed by the global response to the arrests of our congregation. Prominent voices from across the political spectrum in the U.S., the U.K. and Europe have spoken out about our plight. Other congregations in China showed extraordinary bravery in coming to our aid. Thousands of people—from Argentina to India and Nigeria to Korea—prayed for us. Even in the bleakest moments, we took great comfort in their support. Eight of my fellow church members, along with many other church leaders and prisoners of conscience, remain in prison. These men and women, some of the most caring people I have met, are confined in cramped cells and sleep on floor mats in blistering heat. Many leave behind young families. I won’t rest until they see freedom. When I started Zion Church in 2007, my aim was simple: to share the immeasurable love of God with those around me. As I wrote from prison, “We do not oppose dialogue with the government, nor do we confront it, but rather emphasize obedience to those in authority.” At the same time we hold fast to our beliefs, recognizing Jesus Christ as the sole head of our church. China’s political authorities have no reason to fear the tens of millions in China who worship in unregistered congregations. These Christians love their nation. They only want to worship God peacefully according to the Bible and to serve others, especially the poor, the disabled and the elderly. Zion Church is proud to have been among the first responders after the devastating 2008 Sichuan earthquake and to have hosted major blood drives in Beijing. My earnest prayer is that my release can mark the beginning of a new chapter for people of faith in China. Freedom of religion is a universal right promised in the Chinese Constitution. I hope that all our church members are freed and that China becomes a place where all people can freely worship. A first step would be to legalize house churches alongside state-run churches in the same way China has legalized private industry alongside state-owned enterprises. Such a future might seem impossibly remote, but so did my release. I couldn’t be more thankful, and pray that others still imprisoned will experience this same freedom soon. Mine is a God of miracles, and he constantly surprises me. 金明日牧师：我已重获自由，请为中国祈祷 我所创立的教会中，仍有八名成员身陷囹圄。 作者：金明日 (Ezra Jin) 2026年7月8日，美东时间下午5:02 去年10月，我与锡安教会（Zion Church）的其他28名领袖及成员一同被拘留，随后在中国监狱度过了266个日日夜夜。上周五，当看守将我带上一辆面包车时，我以为是要送我去受审。我预料自己会因创立并领导锡安教会——中国众多地下教会（或称“家庭教会”）之一——而被判重刑。然而，仅仅几个小时后，我就重获了自由。没有谈判，没有认罪，所有指控均被撤销。 在美国建国250周年纪念日前夕，我与阔别八年的家人团聚了；当年，为了躲避迫害，我的妻子和孩子们前往了美国。和我也一样，我的妻子是中国公民，但我们的孩子们全都是美国公民。 从拥挤的牢房一下子转变为与家人一边享用In-N-Out汉堡、一边观看独立日烟花，这种巨大的反差让我感到有些恍惚。我首先要感谢特朗普总统，是他的外交努力促成了我的获释；同时，我也要感谢那些为我奔走呼吁的国会议员及其他美国官员。 对于全球各界就我们教会成员被捕一事所作出的强烈反响，我深感震撼与感动。来自美国、英国及欧洲政坛各界的重要人士纷纷为我们的处境仗义执言。中国国内的其他教会也展现出了非凡的勇气，向我们伸出了援手。成千上万的人——从阿根廷到印度，从尼日利亚到韩国——都在为我们祈祷。即便在最黑暗的时刻，他们的支持也给予了我们极大的慰藉。 我的八位教会同工，以及许多其他教会领袖和良心犯，至今仍被关押在狱中。这些人是我所见过的最充满爱心的人，如今却被禁锢在狭窄的牢房里，在酷热难耐的环境下睡在地垫上。他们许多人家中都有年幼的孩子。在他们重获自由之前，我绝不会停下脚步。 2008年我创办锡安教会时，初衷很简单：与周围的人分享神那无限的爱。正如我在狱中所写：“我们既不反对与政府对话，也不与政府对抗，而是强调顺服掌权者。”与此同时，我们坚守信仰，认耶稣基督为教会唯一的元首。 中国当局没有理由惧怕国内数千万在非登记聚会点敬拜的信徒。这些基督徒热爱自己的国家。他们唯一的愿望，就是按照《圣经》的教导平安地敬拜神，并服务他人——特别是贫困者、残障人士和长者。锡安教会引以为豪的是，在2008年四川大地震发生后，我们是最早参与救援的团体之一，并且在北京组织过大型无偿献血活动。 我恳切祈祷，我的获释能成为中国信徒开启新篇章的起点。宗教自由是《中国宪法》所承诺的一项普世权利。我希望教会所有成员都能获得自由，也希望中国成为一个所有人都能自由敬拜的地方。迈出这一步的途径之一，是将家庭教会与官方教会一样实现合法化，就像中国在国有企业之外允许私营企业合法化那样。 这样的未来或许看似遥不可及，但我的获释也是如此，却成为现实。我心中充满感恩，并祈祷其他仍在狱中的人也能早日获得同样的自由。我所信奉的是行神迹的神，祂总是不断给我带来惊喜。#锡安109教案#

【尝试了5年交换】温泉里的第一次靠近 第1集（28:55分钟） 他们在圈内已经五年了，却从来没有真正完成过一次交换。 这趟台湾之旅，原本只是我们想放松的小旅行， 没想到，在我们发了要来台湾的贴文后， 一对住在台中的夫妻私讯了我们，说关注我们很久了， 每一部影片都让他们心跳加速❤️ 他们说，我们可能就是那一对—— 能带他们真正踏出那一步的夫妻。 我们带着一点好奇，也带着一点使命， 从台北搭高铁前往台中与他们见面。 他们非常用心，带我们吃美食、泡温泉，甚至安排了梦幻又私密的汽车旅馆。 在温泉里，Sam坐在她身边，手指自然地滑过她的背、手臂、大腿… 她没有躲开，反而越来越放松。 当她慢慢伸手握住Sam的肉棒， 一切就像水温一样，悄悄升高。 她跪下来，张开嘴，把它含进嘴里。 而我，也在那一刻，跪在她老公面前，让他进入我的身体。 没有安排，也没有谁先开口。 只是——五年没能做到的第一次，终于在这一刻发生了。 ⸻ 【5 years trying】Hot Spring Seduction – EP1 (28:55mins) They’ve been in the lifestyle for five years… but never truly completed a swap. This trip to Taiwan was supposed to be just a little getaway for us— but then we posted on X… and a couple from Taichung messaged us. They said they’d been following us for a long time. That every post, every video, made their hearts race ❤️ And somehow, they felt—we might be the couple who could finally help them take that step. So, with a mix of curiosity and intention, we took the high-speed rail from Taipei to meet them. They were incredibly sweet— taking us around the city, to dinner, a hot spring, and even booking a dreamy, private motel for later that night. In the hot spring, Sam sat beside her. His hand slowly gliding across her back… her arms… her thighs. She didn’t pull away. She softened. Then—she reached out… and wrapped her hand around his cock. He stood up, and without a word— she leaned in and took him into her mouth. Her husband sat across, silently watching. And I… got on my knees for him. Letting him enter me. No script. No pressure. Just a moment that finally, after five years— set them free.
