When Paul Fiddler was only eight years old, he etched his first tattoo. “I used a wall tack and some pen ink and made initials on my hand,” said the 26-year-old Cheyenne River Sioux. Little did the young Fiddler know that a little pain would be his gain, and he would one day be a professional tattoo artist and owner of the newly opened Phuzion Storm Tattoos in Rapid City, South Dakota, named after a son he lost three years ago. “It’s a way to keep his name going,” shared the father of three.

Your writing is unhinged
Just be careful
Those people can seriously harm you
Aren’t you afraid?
Why do you throw yourself in harm’s way?
Tell me why?
* *
It is not a matter of courage
It is a matter of love
A love so great that every sacrifice worthwhile
All pain bearable
Love of Truth, Justice, Peace and Humanity
Love of gentleness and kindness, compassion and beauty
Love of babies when they’re born
As they take their first step
As they make their first smile
Then from then on, every step of the way
Love of children when they laugh
As they dream of hugging the world
As they giggle when they play
Flattering their wings as they fly
Love of earth running amok
Day and night chasing one another
Hoping to meet by the horizon
Out of breath kissing the sky
Love of oceans as they pound
Racing…

Short of creating an actual time-traveling machine, old photographs and video footage are all we have to ‘re-live’ our ever-changing city. If images of Beirut in the 50s and 60s make the city look like a radically different place, what would images of 100 years ago look like? TIMEBOX Beirut puts us one step closer to satisfying this curiosity.
TIMEBOX Beirut, the brainchild of Razan AlSalah (concept, research and photography) and Lotfi AlSalah (product design), produced in cooperation with Heinrich Böll Stiftung – MENA, is described as “an urban trail of early 20th century 3D images on the streets of Beirut.” Each TIMEBOX holds one archival stereograph at the location where it was originally taken 100 years ago. Passersby experience that same street a century back in 3D. TIMEBOX is latched on 10 different street poles across the city.

• Williams grinds down Azarenka 3-6, 6-4, 6-2
• Books fourth-round match against Sloane Stephens
There were 17 American women in the French Open draw at the start of the week. At the end of play on Monday – if rain does not sluice through the entertainment – there will be one and her name is likely to be Serena Williams, despite trailing by a set and being 3-1 down in the second.

The retired judge could be about to lead a leftwing coalition into power, with a plan to transform the politics of Spain’s capital
The candidate enters the stadium, fist pumping the air and shaking as many hands possible en route to the podium, as thousands of supporters cheer wildly. For most politicians, scenes like that are an invaluable part of the campaign, a chance to flaunt their supporters in the face of the opposition: but not so for the woman poised to become Madrid’s mayor.
“Rallies are one person going blah, blah, blah and then leaving,” Manuela Carmena tells the Observer. “I refuse to do them.” To her, rallies simply reinforce the chasm between people and their politicians. “We said no to rallies. Instead we held meetings in neighbourhoods and said, ‘We’re your candidates, tell us if what we’re doing is good or bad, ask us questions.’ We gave the word to people – we didn’t want to speak.”
We were unknown candidates, we didn’t have any money for the campaign. I like to say we ran on the currency of hope
