Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds have been married for six years. In interviews, they consistently boast about each other's achievements and express their gratitude for having found each other. They also, sometimes, share tips and tricks on how they make their marriage successful.
Of course, it's impossible to know exactly what goes on in Lively and Reynolds' relationship, but from what they've revealed about their private life, it seems they can teach us about what goes into a relationship.
Here are the lessons regular couples can learn from Lively and Reynolds' marriage.
Don't take things so seriously.
If you're going to be in a lasting relationship, you need to be able to make each other laugh — and that's something that Reynolds and Lively do on the regular. Just look at his Twitter, which is actually something that Lively told Glamour makes her laugh all the time.
"I'm so in love with him when he writes that stuff," she told the magazine in September 2017. "I mean, I'm in love with him most of the time, but especially with that."
Always be supportive of each other.
If you pay attention to their public appearances, you'll probably notice there's never a time where one of them shows up on a red carpet without the other. Reynolds and Lively are always willing to cheer each other on and be each other's biggest fan, and regular couples should try to do the same for each other.
Practice empathy with each other.
Many married couples will say that their partner makes them a better person, and in Lively and Reynolds' case, it's the way she's taught him empathy that he says has truly changed him, which he shared when he talked to Human of New York about her.
"She always responds with empathy. She meets anger with empathy. She meets hate with empathy," Reynolds said. "She'll take the time to imagine what happened to a person when they were five or six years old. And she's made me a more empathetic person. I had a very fractured relationship with my father. Before he died, she made me remember things I didn't want to remember. She made me remember the good times."
Keep the lines of communication open.
It's not the easiest thing in the world to talk out your differences with your partner, especially when they've made you angry or upset. But to combat that, Lively told Glamour in that same September issue that she talks to him as if he were a friend helping her with a problem with her husband.
"In other relationships, if something came up, I would call my girlfriends or my sister, and say, 'Hey, this is what he did — what should I do?'" she said. "Where with him, we were friends for two years before we were ever dating. And I treat him like my girlfriend. I'm like, 'Hey, this happened. It upset me. This is how I feel. What do I do?' And he does the same for me. He treats me like his best buddy."
Keep your friendship central to your relationship.
Obviously, having chemistry and keeping that spark alive is important in a long-term relationship, but Lively and Reynolds have found that their friendship being the foundation of their romantic relationship has been important to their marriage, and it makes sense — if you're married to someone you consider your friend, if not your best friend, that friendship is going to last long after that initial honeymoon phase.
"I knew he would always be my best friend for my whole life," Lively said in an interview with Marie Claire. "That was the biggest thing to me. I'd never known anything like the friendship that I had with him. I could like him as much as I loved him."
Appreciate your partner's hard work.
When Lively and Reynolds had a baby for the first time, it gave him a new appreciation for his wife, and sharing that appreciation is key to making your partner feel like you recognize their hard work.
"I'm just a diaper-changing facility hooked up to a life-support system, but my wife, she's breakfast, lunch, and dinner," Reynolds said during an appearance on "The Late Show With David Letterman." "She's a human Denny's all day long ... and it never ends for her. She's the most beautiful Denny's you've ever seen though, I guarantee it."
Understand each other's careers.
Although it's not common to be working in the same field as your spouse, Lively and Reynolds do share a career and a passion. But even if you and your partner aren't working in the same industry, you can still learn a lesson from Lively and Reynolds' understanding of their "weird" jobs: give your partner room to reach their career goals.
"It's nice to have someone who understands what you're doing," Lively said during an appearance on Good Morning America last October. "Especially because our job is so weird — you have to be married to other people, it's all so strange. It's never normal, even when we're both doing it. It's helpful to know when you're acting that you're in a relationship with someone else, that that's not what's actually happening."
Always work as a team.
This lesson goes hand in hand with keeping your friendship at the forefront of your relationship: Being a team is essential to living a happy, healthy life together, as Lively has discovered.
"Everything we do in life we do together," she told Vogue back in 2014. "If I'm working on a movie, he helps me with my character; I do the same with him. Picking out a coffee table. What we're going to eat. He's a beautiful writer — he's written a lot of stuff for us. And he's got a great barometer and he knows me, so he will tell me if it's not as good as it can be."

Gallery: A piece of history
PUBLISHED: 16:11 28 June 2011 | UPDATED: 16:21 28 June 2011
THIS week marks the 100th anniversary of the coronation of King George V and Mercury reporters have been trawling the archives to bring our readers a piece of history.
On June 22, 1911, celebrations were held across Weston to herald the arrival of the new monarch.
The heavens opened that day, but the spirits of people across town were not dampened as can be seen in these photos.
Crowds gathered in Grove Park at the top of the High Street and parties were held in streets across Weston.
The bunting went up outside shops, businesses and homes and the Clarence Park flower arrangement of the Imperial State Crown even made the national press.

Welcome to Saime Ceramiche!
SAIME (Società Anonima Industrie Materiali Edili) was founded in 1938 in Sassuolo by the Gambigliani Zoccoli family, who developed the first porcelain stoneware production with innovative tunnel kilns replacing the old Hoffmann furnaces. Following a corporate crisis in 1987, Saime was taken over by the Riwal group, and subsequently became one of the largest and most productive plants in the district. In 2007 SAIME, along with the entire Riwal group, (which at the time was also comprised of the commercial brands Alfa and San Prospero Lux) became part of the Casalgrande Padana group. With this last acquisition the SAIME brand absorbed the SAN PROSPERO brand while a process of radical transformation of the site began within the Maranello factory which, over 10 years' time, led to the updating of almost all the equipment (with a total investment of approximately 50 million euros in equipment and construction work). Final plant renovations were completed in 2017, which included an innovative production line for ceramic panels. Today the Maranello plant is one of the leading plants of the Casalgrande Padana group, specialized in large size tiles. Our future development is that of a plant dedicated to the production of ceramic panels with a total capacity of 15,000 square meters/day, also equipped with an internal cutting and processing system. The aim of the latest investments is to strengthen the SAIME brand by expanding its offer of both traditional materials and the most innovative materials on the market.

Introduction: Paper Wearable Art From Newspaper
Hello everyone,
I am here with my Instructable, which is a dress made out of newspaper. making dress out of paper is quite interesting and difficult too, because paper is a delicate material and you have to be very careful with it. i love to make things out of paper and exploring new things with the same material. The dress which i had made is designed by me and it was for one of a show in which i designed it. This dress is unique and beautiful but at the same time there are some problems too with it, which is because of the material. Like it won't prevent sweat, so make sure you are wearing some protection inside from sweat or else it can spoil your dress. another thing is it's paper so you have to be careful with it. rather than this it's absolutely perfect for fashion shows, fancy dress or some parties. I will guide you here with all the steps. This dress is basically in 3 parts upper part, lower part (inner skirt) and lower part ( outer flowery part). For making this dress you need 2 basic things in bulk, which you have to prepare first. 1st is paper straws and 2nd is this flowers which is there in the dress. I had weaved upper part of the dress so i will also teach you the way of weaving. I had made this according to my body so do it according to yours, still i am going to show you the sizes i followed.Remember we are making an art piece and for art we don't need to be so much technical so feel free to explore and let's the artist inside you to come out. you definitely have to take care about your body fitting but or else you don't need to be so precise in sizes, you don't need to follow my sizes blindly, make according to your body and look. you have to tackle the material with delicacy. As there is always a room for improvements so feel free to give suggestions and ask questions if you have any doubts. so let's get started........
wool or thick string or ribbon
Step 1: MAKING PAPER STRAWS
- Cut the news paper in equal rectangles. i used the size of 15cm/30cm. you can make it according to you. it's not necessary to follow my sizes.
- Take bamboo screwer and start rolling it from one end.
- Roll till the end and tape it.
- Make so many of them.
- You don't need to be so much precise and make each to exact same size.
Step 2: MAKING FLOWERS
- Take newspaper size of around a3 (again you don't need to be so precise, it's ok if you have little bigger or little smaller than a3)
- Use longer side to fold. fold it first on top side (around 3cm folded area).
- Than flip it to the back side and fold.
- Again flip to front and fold and do so till the end.
- Now you have folded strip. you have to cut it from middle.
- Now you have 2 parts of strip.
- put one part on another.
- mark middle line and make small cuts no both side. ( note: don't cut it in 4 pieces, you just have to make small cuts)
- Now take a string or wool, insert in one side of cut than from down insert to another cut and make a knot. cut unwanted part of string.
- now you have flower but it have 4 different part which you have to stick with the tape and make it a 1 flower.
- Make so many of them and also make some 10 to 12 pieces of smaller size.
Step 3: MAKING UPPER PART OF DRESS
- Take a piece of news paper, size according to your front upper part. here first we only need the part which we are going to weave, which is only front part and not back so only take a piece of paper which is sized according to your front size and later on we will add back part. (size which i had used is 35 to 37cm under arm start point to another under arm start point and height of 27 cm)
- The whole size of my upper area is 80cm and i am here making only half part(35 to 37 cm according to my size) of it. which is front part.
- Don't use single paper, it will be very flimsy and easily tearable so take 3 to 4 same size pieces and tape them or use full news paper (folded).
- Now we are going to weave it. so let's start with paper straws.
- first put paper straws vertically and put it into same distance and keep it in even numbers( straws should be in even numbers like 4,6,8,10....)
- Stick the straws on the back side of paper with tape. make sure you dont tape the front part because you have to weave another straws in that later.
- Take another straws and start weaving from 1st member.
- Start from top. In first vertical straw, pass horizontal member from down. now pass the member from up of the 2nd vertical straw. down in 3rd and up on 4th and so on.If straw end in between, take another and resume doing it. weave till top to bottom.
- Stick the ends on back.
- Now take a same size of paper and stick it on back side of weaved area to cover ugly ends.
- Now we have front part ready and we have to make back part.
- For the back part measure your burst and minus front part from it (example: if my burst is of 80cm i will minus 37 cm from it, so i ll get 43cm)
- Now take paper (3 to 4 pieces together), size (length)you get after calculation and (height will be same as front part) and stick both the ends to the front parts ends. and cut the back side from centre of back. fold little and tape it.
- Now you have full front part. which is yet to complete with tying of back with string or wool and shoulder part.
Step 4: TYING WITH STRING
- Take a paper (single paper) of same height and start rolling it to 1 direction.
- Make roll and tape it to the ends of the back part.
- keep spaces in between, so later on you can pass string from them.
- Do this to both the ends.
- Take the string or wool. pass it from top to bottom into the gaps you have put in the end of back part.
- Make crosses.
- Make total 3 cross, so you will get 3 bows after tying the string.
Step 5: MAKING SHOULDER PART
- Take small flowers which we had made before.
- Take string and tape the flowers on the string and you get pretty shoulder part which you have to attach with upper part of dress.
- Here i had made it only for 1 shoulder according to my design. you can add on 2nd if you want to.
Step 6: MAKING LOWER PART -1
- Take newspaper of your waist size. I had taken 88cm length from waist and height of 38cm(till nees) and end length of 115. which covers front and back both.
- Stick paper straws in full length and let it be random and not so precise with 38cm height.
- Make paper roll like we did before to ends of the skirt.
- Pass string or wool and make cross pattern.( we make cross pattern because it is stronger to hold it. you can use some other patterns too to tie string.)
- And your skirt is ready.
Step 7: LOWER PART-2
- Now we are going to make lower flowery part. your skirt's string portion is front so take care of that while making this.
- Put the skirt on some stool.
- Attach newspapers on back part of the skirt to both the sides.
- It's height should be according to yours. it will look awesome if you will put it little longer than your height.
- Attach flowers which you had made before to all over the newspaper you had recently attached to the back.
- Stick them with tape.
Now appreciate your creative work and enjoy wearing it. It was difficult but i am sure you had fun. d
Do share with me if you really like it.

Influential business leaders came together at a PwC event in London recently to discuss why it's time organisations tackle the task of understanding, reporting and addressing their ethnicity pay gap.
Whether inspired by an ethical or moral obligation, or just keen to get ahead of a possible Government-mandated requirement to report, there are lots of reasons why organisations should be taking a close look at their ethnicity pay gap.
However, if some organisations still need convincing, or are put off by concerns over cost or complexity, then it's worth considering the potential downsides of not doing so.
It's time for change
At the launch of PwC's Taking the Right Approach to Ethnicity Pay Gap Reporting, attendees heard that it is essential for organisations to better reflect the outside world, their clients, customers and a diverse talent pool, if they want to be successful.

We rose at 7.30 and were soon packed ready for our flight. Taxi to Terminal 2, check in straightaway and then time for a snack breakfast at an airport cafe. We sat and read for the remainder of the wait; the girls are so good at coping with the boring bits compared to the early days of the trip, happily devouring a book or two in the spare hours at our disposal.
We were called for boarding at the scheduled time and joined the queue snaking towards the gate. Except that one local man chose to bypass the line and barge in just ahead of us, dragging his family reluctantly along behind him. Well, don't mess with Global Prices. We expanded to fill the width of the roped-out channel, thus preventing any further overtaking, and Mr Barger was compelled to wait for the rest of his gang to catch up with him at the point where they checked boarding passes – while we sailed through ahead of him…
We took our traditional seats (pre-booked to be identical on all five of our AirAsia flights) and found we were sharing a plane with the entire Sandakan Rugby Team; flying with the Eagles. Our take-off presumably took us right over our hotel, but our view was of the various islands we had visited for snorkelling.
They usually get the food served early on, and we had our pre-ordered sandwiches along with water purchased at the airport; 'Eau Claire' was the refreshingly grammatical Malaysian brand name (as opposed to 'Eau de l'Mineral' or some such), though I'm sure 'Eau Claire' is a Gilbert O'Sullivan song… It's 'underground natural mineral water' filtered for thousands of years, and then they warn you 'best before Nov 2012′.
We landed 10 minutes early in KLLCCT (snappy, eh? Kuala Lumpur Low Cost Carrier Terminal) and endured a longer connecting wait. Time for a Dunkin' Donut each, and the girls got new books based on The Wizards of Waverly Place, a programme they enjoyed in North America (Ellen finished her 120 pages during our second flight). A major thunderstorm came and went as we sat in transit.
Our Bali plane was also on time, taking off around 6pm, and the journey passed uneventfully. Just another round of stepping into a metal canister and stepping out again somewhere completely different, with little sense of how you got there – especially when the flight is mostly in darkness.
We stepped off the plane into 29'C heat and joined the first of several queues. For your Visa On Arrival you first line up to pay US$25 per person (children included) in return for a receipt. At the next desk you then hand over your receipt, passport and completed immigration form in return for a 30-day visa stamp. Except that we chose the queue that wasn't going anywhere; a whole group of flights had just arrived and we were at the back, but the fingerprinting and photographing of each and every passenger was taking an age (they've just introduced this US-style system).
After perhaps half an hour of wondering whether to risk swapping queues, an official came to whisk certain groups – including us – over to a secret channel on the far right-hand side. It soon became apparent that all young families were being fast-tracked, and as a bonus they didn't want any of our fingerprints. If you have children then you can't possibly be a terrorist?
Anyway, we emerged ahead of the bulk of waiting passengers (a shock to be among so many Westerners again), collected our hold luggage, cleared customs, withdrew some cash (I'm a Rupiah millionaire!) and were relieved to spot a man holding a name placard waiting to take us to our hotel. He warned us that the journey might take 40 minutes but we were happy to sit back in the large, air-conditioned vehicle while we caught our first glimpses of Bali By Night.
So much traffic, endless built-up areas, youths on motorbikes hogging the fast lanes but getting in our way, overblown statuary at roundabouts. A sign advertising 'Chocolate Therapy and Red Wine Spa' and lots of 'Circle K' shops.
After half an hour we turned into the Graha Cakra Hotel (which I'll always think of as the Graham Chapman Hotel – 'c' is pronounced as 'ch' here as in Malaysia). We collected the key, paid in full – they added a supplement of one-third of the room rate for the girls – and were shown to our room.
Er, is this it? I was expecting something nearly twice the size, going by the website description, and they had brought in just one extra floor mattress and pillow to accommodate both girls. Disappointed, we returned to Reception. Had we been given the larger Deluxe room rather than the Superior (i.e. standard)? And please could we have another mattress and pillow; we have two children.
Okay, but there would be an additional charge for this mattress, too. What?? That meant our £45/night had now shot up to £75/night. Can they be serious? I had specifically asked in my emails whether there would be any extra charge for the girls (it's always been minimal everywhere else) and they had never responded on this point.
We said that this was now way over our budget, so please could we see a Superior room instead. Once there, we realised it was scarcely any smaller than the supposed Deluxe, and we also spotted a connecting door – perfect! And the maths told me that it would be a lot cheaper to get two Superior rooms than one Deluxe with two extra mattresses. More space, proper beds, more privacy, an extra bathroom, and all for less money; a bizarre situation arising from their scandalous overpricing of the extra mattresses.
Oh, and although they initially quoted a price of RP450,000 for the Superior room, they then bumped this *up* to the internet rate of RM465,000. Firstly, why is the online rate higher? And secondly, why are we paying this online rate when we're standing there at Reception?
So we ended up paying more than the full rate for two standard rooms, with no hint of a discount for children (although they eat less breakfast and they didn't get their own welcome fruit bowl, pathetic though it was; one apple, one orange and three mini bananas). Not an encouraging start to our time in Bali – it's back to being a cash cow there for the milking, an I.O.ewe ready to be fleeced. Bali after Malaysia seems like the difference between Peru and Bolivia: in one country you're treated as a tourist sucker, in the other you're treated as a human being.
Some time after 11pm we got the girls into bed and we followed not long after. The BBC World Service reported forthcoming talks between the Tories and the Lib Dems, and then we zonked out.

The Hungarian-born jazz guitar legend was at the peak of his career in 1974, when he first visited his abandoned homeland after 18 years of absence. He was invited by the Hungarian Television to record a few tracks with session musicians of his choice. The project came to life in September 1974, when six artists gathered in a studio of the Hungarian Radio and gave an hour-long, live concert. The program was compiled mostly of material from Szabo's albums published in the West, as well, as arrangements of Hungarian and international pop hits. The sessions' television broadcast was quite a success that in fact officially introduced this great artist to his homeland's audience. The recordings have remained unreleased to this day.By Moiras Rec.

If you haven't done rare disease, sorry but then you don't know rare disease. We KNOW Rare Disease, we have done what you are doing and we know how hard it is, and we know how limited the solutions are in finding rare disease patients. It was out of that frustration that this solution was born.
We target COMMUNITY based health care systems. It is in the community systems where as much as 80% of patients reside, and it is where the diagnostic odyssey is most pronounced. Our focus is to partner with these providers to raise the bar in rare disease diagnosis & care
We are analyzing real & active Electronic Health Record data, driving the discovery & diagnosis of real patients. We use machine learning and AI to find high probable patients in need of a further evaluation and diagnostic confirmation.
We aren't guessing where patients might be, we help providers find real live rare disease patients lost in the system in a diagnostic odyssey. Patients with probable disease, and we help you find those providers, so you can serve the patient
Because of our partnership and revenue sharing with healthcare Providers & Systems, we can drive the pull through of "probable" patients to a conclusive diagnosis. This creates a sense of urgency and motivation necessary to change the status quo
The US healthcare system is a volume based business built for the masses and Rare Disease Patients. are outside the bandwidth of most providers, which explains the 5-8 year diagnostic odyssey of most rare disease patients. No one in health care is proactively looking for these special patients and you can't find what you aren't looking for
Overwhelmed and Under Supported Providers with Rare Disease Patients they are not equipped to consistently manage or find a one in a million patient. There are now 5300 medical journals producing 800,000 articles a year, no one can keep up with that
This was true before RDDT, but we are changing the marketplace. Like it or not we have a capitalistic health care system and they prioritize strategies around revenue. By making the discovery and diagnosis of these patients valuable, we can transform the Rare Disease marketplace
Why would anyone look for a subset of patients they don't believe they have and they really don't want to find? Particularly when they have no ROI potential.
80% of patient volume now resides within the consolidated, community based, vertically integrated health care systems, and we can offer a portal to mine their data to drive the diagnosis of targeted rare diseases
It is getting more and more difficult for industry to get quality time with important providers and patients are paying the price, and this problem is compounded, when it comes to complex and nuanced rare disease patients
Because of superior EHR data and rare disease expertise, we can efficiently and rapidly discover likely rare disease patients, drive them to diagnosis and tell you which providers have them
RDDT is a middle man that empowers healthcare and biotech to compliantly work for the benefit of the patient. With Biotech funding the analytics, RDDT executing the analysis and Healthcare providing the data and being rewarded through revenue share from RDDT, powerful new tools can be deployed to accelerate the discovery of these hard to find patients.
Industry Funds the data searches for rare disease patients that are lost in a healthcare system, and in doing so accelerates the discovery, identification and diagnosis of those patients
By creating a compliant platform for biotech & healthcare to collaborate and coordinate the acceleration of diagnosis, we can transform the marketplace in a way that is good for everyone
We make short list of patients for providers and short list of providers for Biotech. It may not be exactly "easy", but it is light years better than the status quo
No Patient Data, Just Providers with Probable Rare Disease Patients that can be easily identified by the Provider for follow up. So when you say, "I hear you have a patient", the Provider doesn't answer, "Really? Who?" He will know
We are simultaneously providing "probable" patient list to providers in need of further evaluation. Interrupting the diagnostic odyssey of rare disease patients and putting them on a pathway to either treatment or trial
With everyone having a short list, now industry knows which providers to give the free diagnostic testing to and providers know who to diagnostically test, for the benefit of the patient
Claims data is retrospective, instead of prospective and has limited insightful data points and produces nothing more than bad guesses
Because of our relationship with health care we can actively facilitate the diagnostic pull through of patients to a point of conclusion. We deal in conclusive diagnosis of rare disease patients not hypothetical guesses
RDDT's process removes thy mystery for providers, we help them find patients and then we help bio-pharma find the right providers
Once we find lost rare disease patients, we buy from our provider partners de-identified data on those rare disease patients to advance the study and of that disease and accelerate research and development

HE Ahmed bin Abdullah bin Zaid Al Mahmoud, the Speaker of the Shura Council, President of the 140th General Assembly of the Inter-Parliamentary Union (IPU), on Monday chaired a meeting of the General Assembly to discuss the emergency item on humanitarian assistance to the African countries of Mozambique, Zimbabwe and Malawi affected by Cyclone Idai.
At the beginning of the meeting, His Excellency said that the emergency item was adopted by the General Assembly on its agenda yesterday and called for urgent international action to help the three African countries hit by the cyclone recently.
Speaking on behalf of the State of Qatar and not as the President of the General Assembly of the IPU, HE Speaker of the Shura Council expressed Qatar's deep condolences and solidarity with three countries and their peoples, after suffering heavy losses due to the devastating Cyclone Idai.
His Excellency also called for the launch of a global campaign to help the governments of the three countries to overcome the plight and to meet the needs of their citizens.
HE Al Mahmoud stressed that handling disasters cannot be achieved individually because of the lack of potentials and resources, but through collective action and mobilization of the international community and all humanitarian organizations concerned to provide humanitarian support and assistance to those affected and victims.
HE the Speaker of the Shura Council gave the floor to the representatives of the countries and organizations that asked to talk about this emergency item on the humanitarian catastrophe that left much human and material damage in the three countries.
The speakers expressed their solidarity with these countries and with the victims of the cyclone and called for mobilizing international support to provide them with assistance, especially in the fields of shelter, food, health, environmental sanitation and clean drinking water.
They stressed that the social and economic impact of this disaster on Mozambique, Malawi, Zimbabwe and the region, as well as the widespread destruction of about 90 percent of the infrastructure as well as destruction of many homes, bridges and schools, some of which have become shelters, and the sometimes difficult access to those affected, require accelerated international action and urgent to support the three states in alleviating the damage to their peoples, calling upon partners and the international community to respond quickly in addressing this humanitarian challenge.
The speakers also referred to climate change that causes such disasters, and the importance of recognizing its risks. They also called on the countries, especially the industrial ones, to abide by the international conventions that protect the planet and the world environment, including the Paris Convention, and work to reduce global warming and emissions in the atmosphere, including the carbon dioxide.
They stressed that the challenges posed by the cyclone to the three countries are large, adding international and humanitarian relief efforts must be combined as a top priority to overcome the plight over the short-, medium- and long-term, in the light of the negative effects that millions of victims have been affected by the spread of diseases and epidemics, including cholera.
For their part, the representatives of the three affected countries explained in detail the devastation caused by the cyclone and the emergency needs of their countries and their vision of how to deal with and overcome its effects with the help of friends, partners and the international community.
They noted that many citizens in the three countries have died, in addition to the displaced and refugees, including large numbers of children and women, a matter which requires actions.
The representatives of States and organizations expressed their thanks to the IPU for discussing this disaster and expressed their gratitude for the sympathy, contributions and support shown by the participating countries in overcoming the catastrophic effects of cyclone Idai.
Addressing this humanitarian catastrophe, the representative of Namibia emphasized his country's commitment to finding a lasting and just solution to the Palestinian cause that guarantees the Palestinian people their rights as stipulated in international resolutions, while the representative of the Kingdom of Morocco said they cannot remain silent about the injustice and oppression to which Palestinian people are subjected.

I am a "Bible geek" who is always checking out new translations, editions, and study Bibles. Clay follows the scene even more closely than I, and I have been grateful for his tenacity and his willingness to share information; he was able to get me an advance copy of the HCSB Psalter a few years ago, which I have come to believe is the most beautifully effective translation of the Psalms since Thomas Cranmer put together the Book of Common Prayer.
Many Bible translations have a bias. The NRSV is left-leaning, mainline; the NIV is right-leaning, Calvinist premillenialist. I like both translations, mind you, and don't mean to denigrate either of them. My old chum Joe Miller has some strong feelings about Eugene Peterson's The Message, which Joe believes to be a commentary, rather than a paraphrase (as it has been advertized). The primary translation I am using now is the ESV, a 2001 revision of the RSV that is a mite more "literal" than the NRSV. Picking up on the biases of the translators can really help the way we exegete (of course, for serious exegesis, turn to Greek and Hebrew editions...there's a good reason they pounded these languages into our heads during seminary!).
Study Bibles can be useful tools. I don't recommend that pastors or laity exclusively use any particular study Bible, but as concise references, they can be excellent. Some are certainly better than others.
In 1989, Thomas Nelson published the Wesley Bible (NKJV), a study Bible put together from a Holiness perspective. It was very good, and I still refer to it. But, it didn't last long and is now difficult to find.
A few years later, Zondervan published the Reflecting God Study Bible (NIV), again featuring a Holiness perspective. This Bible was a revision of the very popular NIV Study Bible, released to counter many of the notes, which contain a Calvinist bent (as does the NIV). Despite its high quality, generally good notes and articles, and similarities to a top selling edition, this study Bible failed to catch on with readers of Wesleyan persuasion. Like the Wesley Bible, it can now be difficult to find.
I am very excited about the February 2009 publication of the Wesley Study Bible. Cokesbury describes it thusly:
"With a warmed heart and active hands...So, for the first time, we have a mainline Wesleyan study Bible. And the scholarship looks excellent. The General Editors are Joel Green and Bishop William Willimon. Prominent contributors include Thomas Bandy, Ted Campbell, Bishop Kenneth Carder, Paul Chilcote, Kenneth Collins, Maxie Dunnam, Western PA alumnus Jeff Greenway, Adam Hamilton, Western PA alumnus Richard Heitzenrater, Zan Holmes, Bishop Rueben Job, Gregory Jones, Bishop Scott Jones, F. Belton Joyner, J. Ellsworth Kallas, Michael Lodahl, Russell Richey, Theodore Runyon, Bishop Robert Schnase, Michael Slaughter, David Lowes Watson, Bishop Timothy Whitaker, Ben Witherington, Charles Yrigoyen, and many others. That's a heck of a list!
"The Wesley Study Bible helps persons experience God in fresh ways and grow as more faithful disciples. The Wesley Study Bible gives inspiration and practical examples to live your faith with a warmed heart and active hands.
"Written for everyone in: African Methodist Episcopal Church, African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church, Christian and Missionary Alliance, Christian Methodist Episcopal Church, Church of the Nazarene, Church of God (Anderson), Free Methodist Church of North America, The Salvation Army, Wesleyan Church, United Church of Canada, and The United Methodist Church."
I'm sure there will be more news about it as its release draws near. My fear is that it is too "mainline compromised" to be very useful; my hope is that these excellent scholars, leaders and theologians have crafted a truly useful Wesleyan resource. The Cokesbury page is here. You can view some excerpts as PDF files here, including the Letter of St. James.

OPINIONS: The Gemara quotes Rava who rules that when one sells merchandise based on measurement, weight, or an item-count, he must give the buyer the exact measure, weight, or count agreed upon; if he gives any less, the Halachah of Ona'ah applies and the buyer can retract the entire sale. Cheating the buyer with measures differs from cheating the buyer in the price of the merchandise, in which case the buyer may not retract the sale unless he was overcharged more than a sixth of the market value of the item. If he was overcharged less than a sixth, he may not even claim the money which he was cheated. (The ROSH is in doubt about whether there is even a prohibition against overcharging such an amount.) This is not the law in the case of measures, weights, and item-counts.
Does this mean that if a seller agrees to sell, for example, 100 nails, and the bag that he gives to the buyer contains only 99 nails, that the buyer may retract the entire sale and the seller does not have the opportunity to give the buyer one more nail?
(a) The RAMBAM (Hilchos Mechirah 15:2), according to the RAN's understanding, maintains that Rava's ruling is not absolute. Rava agrees that there are situations in which the sale is not invalidated, such as a sale which can be adjusted easily. In such a case, the sale is not considered to have been completed until the count of goods is corrected. Rava's ruling applies in a case in which the measure or count delivered is not rectifiable, such as when a person agrees to sell a house of 100 square meters, but the house actually measures only 70 square meters. Since one cannot simply add more space to a house, the sale is invalidated. This is also the opinion of the RAMBAN and most Rishonim.
(b) The RASHBA in Kidushin (42b) maintains that Rava's ruling is absolute; it applies whether the person was overcharged less than a sixth, exactly a sixth, or more than a sixth. However, he points out that Rava does not say that the sale is "Batel" -- "invalid," but rather that it is "Chozer" -- "returns." The Rashba explains that Rava means sales of an inaccurate measure, weight, or item-count are never invalidated, but rather the difference between the amount delivered and the specified amount must be compensated, whether in units or in price. According to the Rashba, there is no actual difference between the case of the house and the nails. In both cases, the sale is valid, and the amount must be compensated either by supplying the difference in quantity (as in the case of the nails) or by supplying the difference in money (as in the case of the house).
The PISCHEI CHOSHEN (Ona'ah 11:24, see footnotes there) quotes the S'MA who rules like the Rambam, Ramban, and other Rishonim. However, if a person is able to add more space to a house and thereby abide by his agreement with the buyer to give the buyer a 100-meter house, the S'ma presumably would agree this is permitted and the buyer cannot back out of the sale. This is implied by his statement that if a person sells a field which contains less area than he originally stated, the sale is upheld if he can add area from land located at the side of the field he sold. He may not add the additional area from land in another location. (Y. MONTROSE)
The Gemara teaches that the verse, "So has Hash-m sworn, by the glory of Yakov, 'I will never forget, for eternity, all of their deeds'" (Amos 8:7), refers to four types of people: "Otzrei Peiros" -- those who hoard produce (refraining from selling it until the demand is so great that they can raise the prices significantly), "Melavei b'Ribis" -- those who lend with interest, "Maktinei Eifah" -- those who decrease the size of their Eifah measure (in order to cheat the buyers), and "Mafki'ei She'arim" -- those who add to the market price (by withholding the produce until the end of the month; see RASHBAM DH Masai Ya'avor, and see TORAS CHAIM who disagrees with the explanation of the Rashbam).
The Gemara gives an example of a notorious "Otzar Peiros." He was so entrenched in such conduct that he received the appellation, "Shabsai Otzar Peiros."
The Gemara in Yoma (82b-83a; see Insights to Yoma 82:1) relates that there were two pregnant women who smelled food on Yom Kippur and had a strong urge to eat. Rebbi Chanina advised that the people whisper in their ears that it is Yom Kippur in order to calm down the urge of each fetus. One woman's urge diminished and she did not eat. She eventually gave birth to a child who became the great Rebbi Yochanan. They applied to him the verse, "Before I formed you in the womb I knew you" (Yirmeyahu 1:5).
The fetus of the other woman, however, did not accept the censure, and its urge persisted. They applied to the baby the verse, "The wicked are estranged from the womb" (Tehilim 58:4). The baby grew up to be Shabsai, the one who hoarded produce to raise the prices.
Many commentaries, including the VILNA GA'ON, explain that the beginnings of these two lives, that of the Tzadik, Rebbi Yochanan, and that of the Rasha, Shabsai, are hinted to in the verse at the end of Parshas Shemini: "To distinguish between the impure (Tamei) and the pure (Tahor), and between the creature (Chayah) that may be eaten and the creature (Chayah) that may not be eaten" (Vayikra 11:47).
The Vilna Ga'on explains that the verse may also refer to what separates a person who is inclined to be a Rasha and a person who is inclined to be a Tzadik, as the Gemara in Yoma indicates. The word "Chayah" ("animal") is also the word used for a woman who is in the process of giving birth. The verse alludes to the difference between the Rasha and the Tzadik by distinguishing between the "woman who ate" and "the woman who did not eat." The Vilna Ga'on explains this verse homiletically to mean, "In order to distinguish between the Tamei (the wicked person) and the Tahor (the righteous person), one can observe which Chayah (pregnant woman) eats [on Yom Kippur when the fetus craves food] and which Chayah does not eat." This Derashah is supported by the fact that the very next Parshah (Tazria) discusses the laws of a woman who gives birth to a son. (Y. MONTROSE)

The Global Service Jam recently concluded its 2017 year edition. Another successful year and another step in the development of the service design community. In case you are not familiar with GSJ, it is a 48-hour "hackathon" style event focused on learning and practicing service design. Service design is a sub-discipline of design that uses design methods, practices, thinking and sensibilities to create better services. Given the growing complexity and scale of the service economy, both in the industrialized world and in the emerging economies, service designers are becoming important enablers of business growth and social innovation.
This year, Sparks Grove sponsored the Atlanta chapter of the Global Service Jam, called Atlanta Service Jam. Over the years, many of our colleagues at Sparks Grove and North Highland, have supported the event by participating in the jam, coaching the teams and organizing the jam. We are also a proud sponsor of the jam, and as practitioners of service design, we could not be more excited to see this community grow. We anticipate that interface between service design and other business disciplines will grow stronger in the future, which is why events like the Global Service Jam and its local chapters are great ongoing experiments. You can see the projects from the Atlanta Service Jam here.

I was an angry little girl. Well, I'm still an angry little girl, but when I was younger I didn't possess the skill of instant sweetness and charm as I do now. I was distant and cold and hard to get to know, especially to the men my mother dated.
I wasn't interested in any man who wasn't my father and it took a lot for me to trust anyone my mother brought home for me to meet. And if my mom was really serious about a guy, I was always the last one of my sisters to meet him. I was the deciding factor. I would determine whether or not he would stick around. Because if I didn't like him, I would let anyone who would listen know about it. Apparently most dudes weren't interested in dating a woman with a demonic nine year old.
I don't remember meeting Daniel, my eventual stepfather, for the first time. I don't remember if I was polite or if I made some rude comment. But I do remember the first time I looked at him without judgement or genuine disgust, as I typically did with most people I met.
He lived down the street and invited my mother and I over for dinner. He was trying to impress me rather than her at this point. They had already been dating for awhile by now, so if he was meeting me, it was already pretty serious for her.
I walked in the door and laying on the couch was the most beautiful dog I had ever set my eyes on. I had only seen Basset Hounds on greeting cards wearing silly top hats and drowning in a puddle of their own drool. With ears that flopped to the floor and eyes that looked as if they were being pulled down by magnets, I immediately fell in love. His name was Harley and he became the glue that held mine and Daniel's relationship together.
After figuring out Daniel had a deep love for Basset Hounds, he showed me photographs and told me stories of all the dogs he had owned and tales of when Harley was a puppy. He had books and little knick-knacks of Basset Hounds. I was mesmerized. I'm a strong believer that everyone has a breed of dog that is just their breed. Evanne's is a Boxer. That's her breed. My sister's is a Pit bull. You just find a particular breed of an animal and it strikes a chord with you so deep that you can't explain it. You just know that you're meant to own one. Doggy soulmates.
I had found mine.
As time passed, eventually so did my fascination with Daniel and his dog. Eventually, I grew up and moved away and left Daniel and Harley behind. My relationship with Daniel quickly diminished as I entered my teenage years and my attitude towards him shifted as, I have learned, is normal when it comes to teenage girls and their father figures.
I was laying in the bed I was claiming as my own in an apartment I paid for under the table when my mother called me and told me that Harley had passed away. My heart was broken, and I knew Daniel's was as well. I skipped school that day and mourned the loss of my first best friend alone in my temporary home.
With the loss of Harley, Daniel and I needed something new to keep our relationship from completely falling apart. With Harley being the original source of our fondness for each other, I knew that another dog was the only chance of us reconciling our relationship. Our hostility towards one another was beginning to cause problems between my mother and me so something had to be done. An effort had to be made. I began obsessing over the idea of getting a Basset Hound puppy. I smothered Daniel in photos of puppies and begged him to buy one for me. I lived on my own which meant I would take care of him by myself and Daniel could babysit whenever he wanted. It didn't take him long to cave. We found a Basset breeder in a neighboring town and made the call.
Atticus at 4 weeks old. This was the photo that was the deciding factor on which puppy I wanted. This was the one for me.
The last trip I ever took with Daniel before he died was the drive to pick up Atticus. We reminisced about Harley and he told me stories of when he took him home for the first time and how he howled the entire way home. I laughed and said that Atticus was going to be perfect. I thanked him over and over again. I had never owned my own dog. I was over the moon.
The moment I saw him, I changed. I held him in my arms and I regret to this day ever putting him down. I never knew I could love another living thing as much as I loved this animal. To this day, I'm convinced I'll never love anyone as much as this dog.
I eventually took Atticus home to my apartment and Daniel would call and ask if he could babysit. I would let him, knowing that Atticus was helping in the healing process of losing his Harley.
Daniel's sickness was quickly taking a toll on him, but he insisted on running around with Atticus, who was a wild little thing.
One day, Daniel was carrying Atticus outside because he possessed four stubby baby legs, he couldn't climb the steps on his own. In doing this, Daniel tripped and fell down and hurt his leg. Being too sick to properly heal, he went into the hospital and never left.
Atticus was the last thing Daniel did for me. The last thing that we truly connected over, which I'm forever grateful for because before Atticus, our relationship was, for lack of a better word, garbage.
After the death of Daniel, I buried myself in Atticus. He was my rock. He slept beside me every night. He licked my tears and made me forget why I was crying in the first place.
Daniel's death was extremely confusing for me. I didn't know how I felt about all of it since our relationship was so rocky. I was confused, angry and guilt ridden. No one knew what to say to me. I didn't know what I wanted to hear. But Atticus, being a dog, couldn't say anything. All he could do was be there to love me. And it turns out that's all I really needed.
While being the love of my life, he was also a puppy and a handful, especially in an apartment. Struggling to finish high school and also working a full time job, I just didn't have the time to give him the attention and care he needed. He headed towards my sister's house, who also couldn't keep up with him so she handed him off to my mother. We eventually decided apartment life wasn't suited for him and his energy level so a close friend of mine with a massive back yard took him in. I spent the night at my friend's house that night and cried the whole time because I didn't want him sleeping outside on his own. He was used to cuddling and being warm. But he was outside, cold and alone. Turns out he loved it. I was just worried and emotional because hey, it's me.
Whenever I came home from college, I went to visit Atticus before I even went to see my mom. He was my top priority at all times. He knew it was his mommy coming to see him, too. He would throw himself onto my lap and try to climb on my head like he did when he was a puppy. I was never happier than I was when he was in my arms.
Still not having a stable place for me to live, I couldn't reunite with him just yet. He was moved to another friend's house who had a fenced in yard and a small kid whom Atticus loved. He had finally found a good place for him to stay until I got my shit together. I made it a rule that wherever he went, I had to know these people because I had to be able to go visit him. He was still my dog. I was trying to get my life together so we could finally be reunited.
I was living with my sister and her boyfriend at the time and had the entire day off of work. It was a beautiful day outside and I hadn't seen my baby boy in awhile so I decided to give the guy who had him a call.
"Hey, is it cool if I come see Atticus today?"
"Oh, shit…did no one tell you?"
The moment those words left his mouth, tears filled my eyes.
"Tell me what?" I stuttered, not fully wanting to know exactly what he had to say.
"There was an awful storm a few months ago and a tree fell down and broke the fence. Atticus got out and we haven't been able to find him."
Everything after that sentence is a distant memory I have no interest in trying to remember. I'm sure it consisted of more details of how my dog ran off into the middle of the night, in a strange location, during a massive storm and never made his way back home. I'm sure the guy apologized profusely and talked about how loved Atticus was and how they searched and searched for him but I'll never know fully. All that was running through my head was last Christmas, Atticus and I snuggled on the couch and watched To Kill a Mockingbird, the book and movie from which he was named. Every time someone said "Atticus", he would pop his head up and look around. That's all I could think of until I eventually hung up the phone.
My sister's boyfriend, Adam, was always very respectful of my privacy. He never opened my bedroom door without knocking and making sure I gave him permission. Not once.
The moment I hung up that phone, I screamed so loud that Adam came bursting in my room without hesitation. It was fifteen minutes before I could even say more than Atticus' name.
My baby boy was either lost or dead. I would never know. And the worst part was that it had been months since it had happened and no one felt the need to inform me. I didn't even have the chance to search for him. He was gone and I'll never know what happened to him. I've never been an optimistic person so I don't picture him with a loving family. I picture him wandering around in the cold rain, looking for me, wondering why I left him in the first place.
I'm self destructive, what can I say. Some things never change!
Loss is nothing new to me. I've been losing people close to me pretty fucking consistently since I was five years old. And I'm talking major people in my life. I've lost aunts and uncles that I hardly knew. Grandparents that I barely talked to, but I've lost parents. Close friends. People that when you lose them, it really fucks with you.
But none of those losses has stuck with me like the loss of this fucking dog.
On December 4th, every year, I mourn the loss of my father. I take that day to remember him and feel sad about it.
February 3rd, every year, I mourn the loss of Daniel. I take that day to remember him and feel sad about it.
Other than those two days, when they cross my mind, it's only for a few moments and I don't dwell on it. I move on pretty quickly.
It's been about two years since Atticus went missing, and to this day I can't talk about him without losing my shit.
I look at old pictures and cry. And I'm not talking about "aww, what a cute boy I'm so sad I miss him" tears…I mean hysterical, I can't fucking breathe, someone needs to sit with me and hold me tears. They're brutal. They're exhausting.
He was more than a dog to me. He was more than a part of my family. He was unconditional love. He was a reminder that no matter how shitty everyone else in my life was to me, I still had someone that would love me no matter what. Someone that didn't care how much I drank. How many drugs I did. How often I hurt myself. He didn't love me any less. He wasn't disappointed in me. He didn't get an attitude or threaten to abandon me.
He was a tangible representation of Daniel and the relationship we never got the chance to fully reconcile.
If you've ever lost a pet, I'm sure all of this makes perfect sense to you. And if you haven't lost one yet, please go grab your fur baby right now and never let it go.
I would give anything to feed him fruit snacks and watch them get stuck in his teeth one more time. I would kill to smack him in his face with his long floppy ears.
And if you've never felt this strongly about an animal in your life, it's probably because either
A) The people in your life probably fulfill you emotionally so you don't feel the need to mask your loneliness with a different species.
B) You're a serial killer.
Either way, I hope I have broken all of your hearts with my hearbreaking tale of how I lost my first born child.
I don't know why but Atticus Finch Nieporte has been on my mind a lot recently and I just needed you all to know about him. For all he did for me, the least I can do is honor him through a blog post that'll probably get 13 views and two likes on Facebook.
Let's all let out a howl and chew on some shoes in honor of all the puppies that wandered off into the night looking for their mommies.
I love you bby boy. Forever.
See ya, crybabies.

"If I was a writer and I wanted to stage a woman's death, this is where I'd put it; right down there in the mud."
They were half way through an industrial park in a tunnel. Overhead there was a canopy of burdened chain link fence. The walkway that Simon and Paul stood on was a good six feet above the road. A girl could fall head first onto the caked mud below and just die. Quite possibly, she could be found later in the bushes around Brookside Park.
Paul was trying not to let anger get the best of him. He still had questions for Simon.
"Why would a girl die there?"
Simon looked into his friend's eyes and made sure that Paul saw that Simon wasn't looking away.
"Because a girl can be clumsy when she's drunk."
"If there was anybody around, why didn't they help her? Why didn't they call 911?"
"Maybe he was drunk too, maybe she was dead when she hit the ground, maybe he was a two time offender that couldn't, wouldn't go back."
"Maybe she wasn't dead."
Paul was grasping to the polished rail with everything he had.
"She was."
"Why would one tell the brother?"
"He was tired of that question hanging in the air."
"Well, there's really no more questions then."
"I'm sorry."
"Yes and pathetic and everything I don't want in a best friend."
Simon walked away. Two men diverged under the noon sun in an industrial park; friends since the age of five and never to meet again.

Portraits: Jun
February 21, 2011
We had an awesomely sunny weekend in Seattle — these have been pretty scarce as of late, so I really can't complain. So it was a little cold.. eh. So it was a little windy.. eh. Doesn't matter. Especially when you're shooting with Jun.
Jun's one of those pretty-much-always-genuinely-happy-folks who doesn't sweat the small stuff. When the gusts picked up and we could hear it knocking on the walls of her condo, she didn't panic for the day to come. When the sharp frost bit as we stepped outside, there was no question in her mind whether it was a good idea to keep going. And when realized we were approximately a 250 mile uphill hike to prime Kodak-approved locales, I struggled to keep pace with her enthusiastic gait. Jun's just one of those easy-going individuals that makes all the goings-on easy.
