105 Words of Encouragement for Men (to Help You or a Loved One)
Men may not always show it when they hurt.
And while they might sometimes not be as good at expressing their pain or talking about it as women they still need support.
Because we all experience hurt, loss, rejection and failure. No matter who we are.
So in today's post I’d like to share the best words of encouragement for men that I’ve found over the years.
Many of these timeless thoughts have helped me when I have gone through tough times and I hope they can help you out too.
Or that you can use a few of them to help out a man in your life right now that needs some support and to have his spirits lifted.
And if you w...

The state of the gut microbiome is arguably as influential on health as exercise. Various microbial species present in the gut produce beneficial metabolites, such as butyrate, or harmful metabolites, such as isoamylamine, or can provoke chronic inflammation in a variety of ways. An individual can have a better or worse microbiome, assessing these and other...

Healthcare, Meet Southwest
BY KIM BELLARD
Customers experiencing long, often inexplicable delays, their experiences turning from hopeful to angry to afraid they’ll never get back home. Staff overworked and overwhelmed. IT systems failing at the times they’re most needed. To most people, that all probably sounds like Southwest Airline’s debacle last week, but, to me, it just sounds like every day in our healthcare system.
Southwest had a bad week. All the airlines were hit by a huge swath of bad weather the weekend before Christmas, but most airlines recovered relatively quickly. Southwest passengers were not...

Sunday Sermonette: More house beautiful
Chapter four continues with the description of the Temple. Some of this is lifted from 1 Kings 7, notably the " sea, " (including the fact that pi=3) but it ' s followed by other material. Whether the Chronicler created this pastiche himself, or was copying from some earlier patchwork, is unknowable. Note that he skipped over Ch. 6, in which Solomon builds his own palace which for your information was far larger and grander than the Temple of Yahweh. I also can ' t say why all these details matter, since by the time this was written the First Temple had been destroyed about 200 years earlier. 4 He made a br...

The Yemen War Powers Resolution Vote Is An Important Step Towards Recalibrating the U.S.-Saudi Relationship
Jordan Cohen andJonathan Ellis AllenThe War in Yemen is the worst manmade humanitarian disaster in the 21st century, and the United States has sponsored it from the start. Nevertheless, on December 13, 2022, the Senate will vote to dischargeS.J. Resolution 56, also known as the Yemen War Powers Resolution, from committee. If passed, the legislation would “remove U.S. Armed Forces from hostilities against the Houthis in Yemen within 30 days of the enactment of this joint resolution unless Congress authorizes a later withdrawal date, issues a declaration of war, or specifically authorizes the use of the Armed Forces.”...

Wednesday Bible Study: Boredom unto death
The lists of priests and musicians at least gave us a chance to talk about the priesthood, and music, which are interesting subjects. Here we get lists of gatekeepers, accountants, and administrators. I really don ' t have anything to say about this other than once again to question why the hell anybody would be interested in these disembodied monikers. Don ' t worry, the author is running out of professions. Next chapter he ' ll do the military officers, and then we ' ll be back to a narrative, such as it is.26 The divisions of the gatekeepers:From the Korahites: Meshelemiah son of Kore, one of the sons of Asaph.2&nb...

Errant Missiles and Errant Hawks
Jordan CohenOn November 15, 2022, a Russian ‐made missile hit the Polish city of Przewodow and killed two civilians. Immediate reactions from think tankers and policymakers followed. There were arguments about whether this would lead toinvoking NATO ’s Article 5 – the Article that calls all NATO countries to provide collective defense if one member is attacked – and, if so, whether things like a No‐Fly Zone and retaliatory strikes would be an effective response.In fact, the Latvian Minister of Defensetweeted that the “criminal Russian regime fired missiles… on NATO territory in Poland.” Moreover, U...

One Reason Republicans Lost the Senate
ConclusionPolitical pundits and Republican officials are trying to determine why the expected Republican Red Wave petered out. Surely, theoverturning of Roe vs. Wade and the resurgent salience of the issue of abortion played a significant role. Indeed, abortion was the number two issue affecting vote choiceaccording to exit polls. Notably, Republicans regardless of their stance on the 2020 election did relatively poorly in toss-up/competitive House races. It is likely that abortion played an important role in subduing a Red Wave.Other explanations for Republican underperformance simply blame an electoral map more favorable...

Sunday Sermonette: Deja vu of deja vu
I didn ' t want to steal Yogi ' s line. Chapter 19 is once again a near copy of a chapter from 2 Samuel, in this case Chapter 10, but with some details altered. For example, in Samuel the Ammonites hired 30,000 Syrian soldiers, whereas here they hire 32,000 chariots. I cannot explain the discrepancies, or for that matter why the Chronicler feels the need to reproduce these stories in the first place. Of course, the numbers involved in these battles, and the numbers David ' s army kills, are preposterous. As I ' ve said before, if David existed he was chieftan of a few small towns, not a kingdom that could muster tens of th...

Wednesday Bible Study: Unstuck in Time
One norm of story telling that doesn ' t interest the Chronicler is chronological order. First he told us about the return from Babylon, then he abruptly jumped back centuries to the death of Saul, without any warning. Now he jumps back in time again to the period when David was a pretender to the throne and hiding out with a guerilla band. Modern story tellers may certainly use flashbacks but they also have some way of helping us keep track. If you didn ' t already know the story, you would be hopelessly confused by now.While Chapter 12 is not inconsistent with Samuel, unlike previous material it evidently has a different...
