text: via nobodyis.meI am totally with Jeff in my general distaste for listing promotion on Facebook. But like him, I do think it can be done creatively and in a way that would actually make a difference and strengthen your connection, reputation and relationship with your followers. I wrote similar thoughts before and his linked post above is worth a quick read.

Models get to wear some of our favorite labels, get dressed by the top stylists and meet some of the best makeup artists in the business. It's no surprise they have picked up a thing or two on how to dress amazingly off duty. Take a hint from some of the best models in the business and nail the effortlessly chic look.
When most models are snapped off duty they are either in full makeup and hair post fashion show (which sometimes is a little out there) or looking dewy and natural pre-show. We will be going for the latter- a much more wearable look.
To get the modelesque fresh dewy skin, start with a dewy and light foundation like this or use a tinted moisturizer. Apply a thin layer only where necessary and put some foundation under your eyes and on blemishes. If your skin tends to get oily, dust just a bit of translucent powder in your t-zone. If you want some color dab a tinted blusher onto your cheeks.
Get your eyebrows to look full and youthful a la Bambi with some eyebrow powder. Eyeliner isn't necessary but if you want some definition line your lash line's inner rim with a deep brown. Curl your eyelashes and brush on a lengthening mascara.
Keep your hair natural and stay away from flat irons and curling tools. If you need something to tame it add some defrizzing cream or serum to it.
The key to the off duty style is to look effortless. Wear something that you feel comfortable in and that you know looks great on you. If you don't like a trend or think a tip below won't work for you, find something else that makes you feel comfortable and confident!
LAYERING: In the rule book of models it must be a requirement to know how to layer amazingly. Start with thicker cotton layers in neutral colors first. Add on loose layers in the same color palette and finish off with a structured jacket if it's chilly or a colored scarf for a pop of color. For a more stylish look mix up fabrics like leather with canvas or plaid. Since we're focusing on the layers on top keep things more fitted on the bottom.
AS SEEN ON: Eniko Mihalik, Lina Soderstrom, and Abbey Lee Kershaw
KILLER SHOES: We all know that you can't complete an outfit without some great shoes, and models know that too. Killer shoes come in all shapes and sizes. They can be old school like your chucks or sexy like some heeled booties. Karmen Pedaru is always seen in her trustworthy motorcycle boots, she can pair them with almost anything. Find your own go-to shoes too!
AS SEEN ON: Karmen Pedaru, Frida Gustavsson, and Arizona Muse
CLASSIC ACCENTS: Something simple and classic like a trench coat or a crisp oxford can take a trendy outfit and make it more wearable. It's also the fastest way to a chic outfit. The ripped jeans Dorothea is wearing in the link below in balanced out by her cropped blazer making her look a whole lot stylish.
AS SEEN ON: Dorothea Barth-Jorgensen, Karlie Kloss, and Jacquelyn Jablonski
Some of Chictopia's users have nailed this effortless look:
LABLOG trench tones down her metallic skinny jeans. She looks great mixing a classic piece with a trendy bottom.
JEANGREIGE nails the effortless look with her slouchy sweater and boyfriend jeans. Her look comes together with killer chunky heels.
POPCHAMPAGNE shows us how to layer and play with textures in the summer. Her simple color palette and neutral pumps make her look super leggy, just like those models.
AMANDASHOE 's mullet dress (business in the front, party in the back!) is the epitome of effortless chic. A dress like this doesn't need much to look great nd can be layerd in the winter months to get a more model like look.

We arrived in Kyoto on time, at 6.30 am. The bus dropped us in front of Kyoto Station. We took the metro to Gojo. It was difficult to travel on subway with big luggage. Upon exiting the station, we saw McDonald and decided to have breakfast there. After breakfast, we walked to Econo-Inn with the help of Google Maps. Upon reaching the hotel, we kept our luggage with the receptionist and used the hotel wifi to plan for the day's activity. It was a nice hotel because it provides free bread and drinks from 7am-11pm. Also, there are microwave and fridge for us to use. I really like the hotel.
Our first stop was Kiyomizu-dera Temple. We bought bus pass for JPY 500 and took city bus to the temple. It was a hike to reach the temples, and the road leading to the temple are full of souvenir shops.

After exploring the temple, my mom went for shopping along the road we came from, while I decided to sit at the bench at Sannenzaka Slope.
|This is either Sannenzaka or Ninenzeka Slope
About 2 hours later, we followed Kyoto walking routes and walked through Sannenzaka and Ninenzaka Slope, visited Yasaka Shrine, Chion-in Temple, and all the way to Heian-jingu Shrine. In Heian-jingu Shrine, we visited Heian-Shrine garden with hope of seeing some flowers, however we only saw green trees throughout the garden.

From Heian-jingu shrine, we took bus back to kiyomizu-dera and had late lunch from one of the restaurants on the road leading to the temple.
After lunch, we went back to hotel to check in. The staff had cleaned our room and even moved in our luggage, that's a very good service. Then we took bath and took a rest. At night, we decided to explore Shijo Kawaramachi. I had dinner at a cafe there. Then we took bus to Shijo Karasuma, and we follow the crowds into an alley to see the exhibition of a cart for Gion Matsuri festival. Too bad I didn't bring camera and phone! Then we went back hotel to rest.

Rocket inquiry to report
The £600m mission to orbit and land on a comet faces a delay of weeks or even months following a failed rocket launch in December.
An independent investigation into the loss is due to report on Monday.
Meanwhile, Arianespace, the company that operates Europe's rockets from the Kourou spaceport in French Guiana, has suspended flight preparations.
No compromise
Rosetta must leave Earth by the end of January if it is to reach its destination, Comet Wirtanen, an icy space rock which orbits the planet Jupiter and the Sun.
Scientists fear it could miss its launch window altogether, forcing a delay of months or even years, and giving the probe no second chance to visit Comet Wirtanen.
Professor David Southwood, director of science at the European Space Agency, said he was confident that another target comet could be found, in the worst case scenario.
This would mean additional costs and a lengthy delay to ensure the science of the original mission was not compromised, he said.
He told BBC News Online: "Although it will cost us money we're not about to take any risk on the best part of a billion euros investment on the grounds of not risking another few tens of millions."
New targets
Professor Southwood said a number of new comets have been discovered in recent years that are worthy of scientific scrutiny.
"In terms of finding a potential new target and being able to do everything that the mission requires, I'm fairly confident I will be able to find a new target," he explained.
He said he was hopeful that the launch would go ahead as planned in January.
Engineers hope that the fault can be traced to new components in the super rocket. This would clear Rosetta to fly on the standard version of the rocket.
A media conference in London set for Monday has been postponed until the full results of the inquiry are known.
Peter Barratt, of the UK Particle Physics and Astronomy Research Council, said: "The launch will be delayed certainly by a few days but all the indications at the moment are that it is going to go ahead."
Anxious wait
A new launch date for Rosetta is expected to be announced on 11 January. Until then, British scientists on the project can do little more than keep their fingers crossed.
"Year 2003 has been put on an 'anxious' hold until we get a final decision on the launch," said Dr Christopher Lee of Imperial College London.
"Indications are that they expecting to launch this January which is what I am personally hoping for."
He said whatever the decision, the launch itself would be much worse than the wait.
"Our launch will still use new components which have not yet been flown and we will not know if the launch has been successful until several hours after the rocket has (hopefully) disappeared from view," he explained.
He said scientists had been assured that Arianespace had taken all possible steps to ensure a successful launch "but there is always that little doubt which since the last failure has grown a bit larger".
Dr Andrew Coates from University College London's Mullard Space Science Laboratory said UK scientists had played important roles in previous comet missions such as Giotto.
"Let's hope Europe can maintain its hard-gained lead in cometary science with a good launch for Rosetta," he told BBC News Online.

Dear Readers
This has been a very intense job and, although this page is called Lifeclass, I feel that I am the one who has been learning from you.
After nearly four years as the recipient of every kind of dilemma, from post-traumatic stress and the harm done by internet porn to more perennial woes such as the loss of marital love or that perpetual cry, "Have I left it too late?" I am addressing my own dilemma by taking some time out.
My dilemma has been this: I have a very responsible job for The Daily Telegraph which, so you tell me, helps an awful lot of people and which nobody wants me to leave. On the other hand, there are other things I would like to do and, in particular, other kinds of writing I would like to experiment with.
I am currently a student on a novel-writing course at the Faber Academy. My fellow students and I are lucky enough to benefit from the wisdom and the experience of writers such as Esther Freud, Rachel Cusk and Hanif Kureishi. But while we love to hear what these writers have to say, our real challenge is to use the craft of fiction to create worlds of our own and, perhaps, make sense of our own lives.
Since the life stories I hear from you every week leave little room in my head or heart for inventing and developing life stories of my own, I have decided to step back from this page for a while in order to give myself a chance. And what about you? How will you manage without me? Well, I imagine you will do whatever you were doing before I came along, but in case this isn't good enough I have some suggestions on how to be your own agony aunt in my absence.
1 Do not do anything alone
One of the many valuable lessons I have learnt on this page is that there is nothing so difficult, exceptional, demanding or painful that somebody else isn't going through it too.
You are not the only teenager who wonders if he is gay or why he has no friends. You are not the only parents of soldiers who gnaw away at your own worries and fears in private. You are not the only man whose wife has told him she needs space, or the only wife whose husband seems to have changed character. You are not the only person sitting alone and wondering if you have left it too late to find somebody special.
Your troubles will be halved if you reach out to other people and share your sorrows. You can do this both by talking to friends and through the many organisations that cater for every kind of human difficulty, from bereavement and unemployment to marriage problems.
2 Be your own researcher
How do you find other people who are going through what you are going through? The internet is king. Many days I have sat for hours on Google typing in "help for old people", "midlife crisis", "celibacy" or "co?dependency" and reeled at the amount and quality of information available at the press of a button.
Your local Citizens Advice Bureau is a useful source of information on all kinds of legal, financial, even emotional problems. Relate (www.relate.org.uk) offers advice in family relationships. The Royal College of Psychiatrists (www.rcpsych.ac.uk) is an excellent hub of information on all kinds of mental illness and its treatment. Carers can find help and advice on www.carers.org. People concerned about their own old age or the care of their parents can find help via www.ageconcern.org.uk.
If you feel lonely and don't know what the social life is like in your area, Google the town you live in and go on to www.meetup.com to find social and educational groups.
3 Use self-help books
Yes, really. I have written some, so I am bound to say this, but some are invaluable. If you don't know which of the many titles available is right for you, check out Tom Butler-Bowden's useful series, 50 Self-Help Classics, 50 Psychological Classics, and 50 Spiritual Classics. These are succinct summaries of a large number of books and you will certainly find one that seems to match your own understanding of your problem and state of mind.
And, of course, I highly recommend my own books. Everything I've Ever Done That Worked is being reprinted in a lovely new edition this spring and is full of my own tips on changing your state of mind, your fortunes and your life. For anybody struggling with relationships I recommend my book Everything I've Ever Learned About Love?; for life's inevitable ups and downs, Everything I've Ever Learned About Change?; and for readers who would like to remind themselves of some of the problems that have gone through these pages and my solutions to them, Life Lessons.
4 Lighten up
Oh, heaven knows this is easier said than done. If you could lighten up, you wouldn't be writing to somebody like me, but nobody's emotional toolbox is complete without some simple exercises to break the circuits of misery and regain some perspective. Even in the midst of grief and torment, people can gain equanimity in very small ways by watching comedy on TV, by going for a walk, by looking up at the clouds, by gardening or birdwatching, singing or dancing.
Everything I've Ever Done That Worked has lots of useful suggestions for mood-shifting. A very wise woman once told me to imagine that I was seven years old. I find that if I do, life immediately looks a lot more amusing and carefree.
5 Do something different
I realised early on that many people's problem is simply that they have walked themselves round and round in the same old circle until they are stuck and have lost all perspective on their situation. My sole contribution is to look down from my bird's-eye view and show them what the nature of their problem actually is.
You can learn to do this for yourself if you recognise exactly when you are repeating a piece of behaviour or an argument. Repetition leads to obsession and obsession doesn't solve anything.
If madness is doing the same thing and expecting a different result, then sanity is saying to yourself, "I choose to walk in another direction." Do not engage in the same repetitive arguments. Remain silent and let people vent their feelings. Do a lot more listening than talking. Get out more. Practise changing your brain patterns by walking a different way to work or trying on clothes you might normally avoid. Being stuck is miserable and unproductive. Cultivate ways to be more playful and silly and the gloom often shifts.
I could say so much more – and over the past four years I have – but I have also learnt that people only take in limited suggestions or information at a time. And often, despite my best endeavours, I suspect they carry on doing exactly what they were doing before. It doesn't do to have too elevated an idea of one's own importance – that's another thing I have learnt from you.
I hope to write for you again in these pages in the future, if not exactly in this very special role. In the meantime, thank you more than I can say for trusting and confiding in me. I truly wish all of you happy and resourceful lives.
With love from Lesley

Kuerdas Band won first runner up on a song writing competition in Tagum City last Saturday. I'm so happy for them and I'm really proud of this band. Not that I'm being biased since I'm cousins with the vocalist and band leader - Mark and Jayson and that I'm used to be part of the band years ago. I know for a fact that Kuerdas Band is going to be famous locally and I'm still hoping they will become known in the national music scene.
I haven't seen their performance yet and didn't know the song they played for the competition. But being the the 1st runner up out of the 10 finalists, they must have done their best on stage! Not just because of the instruments used like that of ultrasound amps at Guitar Center but especially because of the God-given talent that each of the members possess.
Kuerdas Band has come a long way. Although they are now famous in our hometown and some other neighboring cities and town in Mindanao, I know big things are still coming their way.
Congratulations Kuerdas Band!

Social Seen: Remembering an icon at Helen Pitt's The House book launch
Present and former Sydney Morning Herald hacks and readers came together on Monday night to celebrate the launch of journalist Helen Pitt's new book, The House.
After a drinks reception, Pitt was joined on stage at the Utzon room of the Sydney Opera House by Richard Walsh, consultant publisher at Allen and Unwin, to discuss the stories of the people behind the magnificent white sails of the world-renowned building designed by the gifted but controversial Danish architect Jorn Utzon, who was born a century ago this year.
Pitt, who wrote the book in two years while working as an opinion page and letters editor, described the night as "magical" when speaking to the Social Seen.
"There was a really strong sense that this might be one of the last opportunities to gather some of the people who worked or reported on The House – this is what Utzon called his masterpiece hence the title," Pitt said.
"There were former workers in their 80s and 90s, as well as former Fairfax reporters such as Gavin Souter, Tony Stephens, Lenore Nicklin, Janet Hawley and Sandra Hall, who all covered it during the 17 years it took to build. As well as some of the city's best known architects, Philip Cox and Philip Drew, and Herald readers who just love the building."
Pitt's highlight of the evening, which was sponsored by Collette and hosted by Traveller editor Anthony Dennis, was watching Sydney Opera House CEO Louise Herron acknowledge Joe Bertony, the 96-year-old engineer who invented the erection arch which made building the sails possible.
"He was a former French spy who twice escaped death in concentration camps in Europe," Pitt said. "He's but one of the many remarkable stories of the 10,000 workers from 90 different countries who built our Australian icon. He said Monday night was one of the highlights of his life."
On the night, a special Jorn Utzon-focused Traveller reader tour to Denmark was announced with Pitt as a special guest guide.
The Real Housewives of Sydney know how to throw a good shindig.
On Wednesday, Krissy Marsh hosted a rather loose, gin cocktail and rose-fuelled "Only in Shangers Lunch" in aid of The Wishing Well at China Diner in Bondi Beach.
Supporting their fellow Housewives star were Victoria Rees, Nicole O'Neil and Matty Samaei and a whole host of yummy mummies, who seemed to all hail exclusively from either the eastern suburbs or the northern beaches.
It was the kind of lunch where "Scots or Cranbrook?" seemed to be the first question on their perfectly plumped lips.
Apparently, "real men drink rose" now, too, and to demonstrate such an astonishing finding, a two-course "Brose brunch" was thrown on Saturday at Easts Rugby Club in Bellevue Hill where big burly men came together to sip on the sweet pink wine.
The event was attended by some of the NSW Waratahs players, who may or may not have raised a pinky as they downed the beloved chilled beverages.
As seen on Sundays in The Sun-Herald's S magazine.

Don't Let the National Flood Insurance Program Expire!
Posted on 02. May, 2012 by Hannah Adams
After 13 short-term extensions over the last three years, the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) is once again set to expire at the end of this month. The NFIP provides vital flood insurance for thousands of households across Louisiana, and the lapse of the NFIP presents an unacceptable risk to vulnerable property owners.
The full Senate should pass the flood reform bill, a bipartisan bill that will protect taxpayers, help the environment, and ensure that the flood program can continue to help families who live in harm's way— including a five year extension that avoids short term fixes. Take action now!
The House has already passed a version with over 400 yea votes, and the Senate Banking Committee passed a similar bill unanimously, both which extend NFIP by five years. Now, the full Senate needs to pass the bill. Let the Senate know it should take up legislation to reauthorize the National Flood Insurance Program, before it's too late.

National champions Aliya Mustafina and Yuri Ryazanov won all-around titles at the Russian Cup, held Wednesday in Penza.
Mustafina, the top gymnast in Tuesday's qualification competition, improved her all-around score Wednesday to 59.434. The 15-year-old Muscovite topped 2008 Olympian Ksenia Afanasyeva (57.034) and Anna Dementyeva (55.133).
Ryazanov (89.450) and runner-up Sergei Khorokhordin (89.250) repeated their rankings from Monday's qualification competition but both improved their all-around scores. Emin Garibov, the 2008 Junior European champion on high bar, placed third (85.850).
Valery Starkin, president of the Penza Regional Gymnastics Federation, offered praise for defending champion Afanasyeva, who recently suffered a leg injury, and new champion Mustafina.
"I'm very happy for Ksyusha Afanasyeva," Starkin said. "Despite the injury, she pulled it all together and executed her routines very stably. But that is not even the main thing. The main thing is that she really wants to win, and she understands that hard work is necessary for victories. In her eyes burns the fire of a gymnast.
"And, of course, our future — Aliya Mustafina! Today she was exceptionally good! Difficult combinations, coupled with almost intricate execution. It's regretful that this year she doesn't have the ability to compete among the seniors. But I think we should work on the prospects. These are our future medals."
New women's head coach Alexander Alexandrov is making a positive impact, Starkin said. Alexandrov, the former Soviet head coach, returned to Russia in November after 14 years in the United States.
"You know what I personally think is very important? The fact that the girls are working with Alexander Alexandrov," Starkin said. "First of all, it's immediately apparent that he has pulled the team together. And secondly, I had lost touch with Alexandrov. I was afraid when he returned he wouldn't be the same Sasha I knew for many years. After all, he was coaching gymnasts for the U.S. team. But now since we've been talking, my soul rejoices: It's our Sasha! Cheerful and smiling, with all the same jokes and cracks. I can unmistakably say that with such coaches the women's team has a very good future."
The competition continues Friday with the apparatus finals. Check back with International Gymnast Magazine Online for more results from the Russian Cup.

Driven by significant expected demand before the launch of its newest base in March of 2017, Jet2 announced that it will be adding additional aircraft to the base, which will operate four brand new routes twice a week throughout the Summer and Winter 2017 and 2018 seasons.
This now means that Jet2 will operate 96 weekly flights to 25 different leisure destinations from Stansted alone. According to passenger forecasts provided by OAG, a leading travel intelligence company, Jet2 will carry nearly half a million passengers during its first financial year of operations at the Stansted base, which is nearly just as much as their operations out of Birmingham and East Midlands. These two destinations have been operated by Jet2 for several years, highlighting the expected rapid growth in the Southeast.
These four new routes consist of an additional flight to Majorca on Monday, Menorca on Thursday, and Crete on Saturday. There will also be two additional frequencies being operated to Zante, which will operate on Saturday and Sunday. The new flights will add 65,000 extra seats each year to the Stansted base, as well as increase the total number of seats to be sold to 875,000, which is a capacity increase of 8%.
Steve Heapy, the CEO of Jet2.com and Jet2Holidays commented on this frequency upgrade out of Stansted: "We are delighted by the response to our London Stansted Airport launch, with our award-winning airline and fantastic package holidays having huge resonance with customers in the south of England. The phenomenal reaction to our launch means we are already growing our presence at London Stansted, with the addition of Antalya, Corfu, Dalaman and Split meaning that we now offer flights and holidays to 27 fantastic leisure destinations to customers across North & East London and the East of England."
Mats Sigurdson, Stansted Airport's Aviation Director also commented on this expansion of frequencies saying, "The announcement by Jet2.com and Jet2holidays is fantastic news for Stansted Airport and for passengers from right across the east of England and London. We were confident that the new Jet2 base would prove popular with passengers and this really positive start is a clear demonstration of the strength of demand that exists across the region."
This news follows another announcement from the airline earlier last week, indicating a new order for four additional Boeing B737-800NG (Next Generation) aircraft at list prices of $384 million. The airline hopes the additional aircraft will allow them to further expand their reach into the Southeast as well as into different European destinations that are not yet covered in their destination portfolio.

Chicken with Kalamata Olives
We eat a lot of chicken in our house but, frankly, I run low on inspiration sometimes. I want something easy but really flavorful. So I was trolling the internet in search of a recipe that would fit the bill. I found one that inspired me at Kalyn's Kitchen but did not have any of the spices that were a part of her recipe so just did my own thing. My son and his girlfriend really liked this so it was a keeper!
8-10 boneless, skinless chicken thighs
2 T. olive oil
Spike Salt-Free Seasoning
black pepper to taste
1/2 onion, finely diced
1 C. chicken stock
1/2 C. kalamata olives, cut in fourths
2 t. flour for thickening (optional)
1. Heat the olive oil in a heavy skillet.
2. Generously season both sides of the thighs with the Spike seasoning and black pepper to taste.
3. Brown the thighs well on both sides until they are golden.
4. Remove the chicken to a plate and add the diced onions to the pan and cook until they start to brown.
5. Put the chicken back in the skillet along with any juices that accumulated on the plate and add the chicken stock (don't completely cover the chicken pieces) and olives. Cover and simmer on low for 30 minutes.
6. Remove chicken to a serving platter.
7. If you wish to thicken the sauce, mix the flour into 2 T. cold water until smooth, stir into the sauce, turn up the heat and simmer for a few minutes until thickened. Pour over the chicken. Otherwise, simply spoon the unthickened sauce over the chicken and you have a gluten-free dish.
Serves 4-5

I can't find the name of it in Google, and the woman who made it said the name so fast I could not write down the Norwegian! She did tell me though she had to make it the night before to leave it to soak.

- ImageMagick (version 7.0.8-55)
- VipLibs-8.8.1
Code: Select all
-m dissolve -f 21 -d 10 -p 10 -e
But the effect simply isn't the same if the background doesn't match. For example:
Yikes! So, I want the transition image to be transparent. In other words, I want the original image to look like it's "disappearing". I'm still new to IM (only 2 days in so far, but I'm picking it up fast!), so I don't fully understand compositing and the likes. I've been scouring over the usage guide to learn as much as I can, but I've hit a wall.
One idea I've had is that maybe I could generate the transition image using the default:
Code: Select all
-transparent-color #00000000
Code: Select all
magick -size 50x50 canvas:"#00000000" alpha.png
I don't know if this is the best solution, or is even a rational way to do this. In any case, I haven't had any luck, as the GIF does not appear to have any effects. However, ExifTool reports that the GIF does contain all 50 frames. My theory is that the transparent image is first being converted to its transparent form, then composited with the original frame and therefore no effect is displayed. But, it's just a theory.
I would greatly appreciate some help figuring out what's going on and how to achieve the effect I'm looking for.

Adding oils to your food helps you cook more delicious meals that have more juice and flavor than the ones cooked without any additional oils. When it comes to choosing the oils you can use for cooking, it all resumes to finding the healthiest one that will only improve your recipes without making them harmful to your health and figure. The list of oils you can use is long but there are only few that are worth trying in the kitchen and here are some health facts about them.
Olive oil
Without a doubt, the olive oil is the most popular and widely used for cooking a variety of meals that contain meat, cereals, vegetables, or fruits. Olive oil is an unsaturated oil that improves the functioning of your heart and influences the blood cholesterol by increasing the good cholesterol and lowering the bad one. Although this oil contains fatty acids with double bonds, you can still cook with it because it is resistant to heat, with a smoke point between 370 and 470F.
Coconut oil
Another oil that you can use for cooking is coconut oil despite the fact it contains saturated fats. One particular fatty acid in coconut oil, called Lauric acid, has high health benefits like adjusting the levels of cholesterol and killing many bacteria and pathogen agents. It can also boost your metabolism and give you the feeling of fullness so you will eat less. Unlike other oils that flow, this one is semi-solid at room temperature and can last for years without becoming rancid.
Flaxseed oil
Flaxseed oil is great for salads dressings and sauces and less for cooking because it has a low smoke point of only 200F. This oil has many benefits in adjusting the blood pressure and protecting the heart, being an excellent aid in the diet of people suffering from heart problems that shouldn't consume fats. Just make sure you keep the oil in the fridge to prevent it from going rancid.
Canola oil
Canola oil can also be used for cooking and there is no limit in choosing the recipes because this oil has a smoke point of 400F. It is packed with health benefits that target blood cholesterol, inflammation, and heart problems. This type of oil contains more omega-3 fatty acids than any other plant oil but the only caution refers to choosing only organic canola oil because the non-organic is usually treated with a chemical solvent called hexane.
Sunflower oil
Perhaps as popular as olive oil, this type of oil can be used in almost any recipe because it has a neutral flavor that doesn't alter the taste of the food and can resist to temperatures of over 440F. Some of the health benefits brought by sunflower oil include adjusting blood pressure, boosting the immune system, improving skin aspect, and reducing inflammation.

They say the delta of Egypt is where She gets her life. It may be true; but it's not where She necessarily gets her freedom. I came to Kafr Elzayaat on my second trip as part of the election campaign, that I have joined, in a bid to see a different side to Egypt while out here doing my research with street children; one I would otherwise not have access to. I took off on this road trip trying to see the delta with fresh eyes, uninfluenced by my awe of Upper Egypt and all the things it changed in me. But, it was hard to step back and embrace it objectively. I admit I had to remind myself often to make space within me for the beauty and pain that this place might reveal.
The road was new. This road didn't pass through the agricultural Egypt, instead, it cut through the desert. Unlike the air that was thick with human stories in Upper Egypt, the air here carried a guilt of sudden death. Is was one of the most dangerous roads in Egypt, claiming a large number of lives every year. Everyone knew someone who knew someone who died on this road. Mostafa also was not the same. The animated man full of stories of struggle and hope was tired. He was being pulled thinly across Egypt in different directions. He hadn't slept for days, started taking heavy painkillers every few hours and was starting to taste the sting of criticism as he gathered both supporters and critics. We temporarily swapped roles on this journey. But as soon as we arrived and our hosts welcomed us, I was amazed at where he gathered all the strength from. He was back! Optimistic, faithful in delivering his message and sincere in his support for the people he met.
The man running for elections in this constituency was a character that filled me with such a strong compulsion to create a caricature of him or one of those flick books to capture how comically serious he was and how quickly he spoke and moved. You could almost see the ideas fly by in is mind and you had to be super quick to catch up with both his thoughts and words. I loved him and didn't believe a word he said all at the same time! His optimism was endearing but his lack of awareness or conversation about anything other than how many votes he was sure of securing made me wonder if he was the best candidate for this part of Egypt. I felt we should have carried a responsibility away with us to take back and talk about, write about and fight for. This man was not going to give us the humanistic tour or answer questions about neither struggle or needs.
The generosity we we're offered in this home matched that of Upper Egypt and the food was delicious! We had already eaten and tried to explain we couldn't possibly eat now but it was almost like those were words that did not make up any part of the vocabulary of an Egyptian home and all that was said was "That is not my concern"! So we sat and ate.
After the food I started to learn what I had come here to learn. About women. Where were the women? While Mostafa was taken to a separate part of the Villa to change his clothes, I was introduced to Nadia (her real name has been changed for her privacy). A very beautiful 27 year old who opened the door to greet me. She stood behind the door gracefully in a long white and sky blue Abbaya, earrings that were so big and heavy I was in awe at how she didn't have to bend over to carry them. She was white with the blackest hair sleekly brushed back from her face and she wore grey contact lenses that I was sure hid even more beautiful eyes. Nadia greeted me with the smile of an old friend and started chatting straight away, even before I sat on the very modern beige and cream couch, about my marital status and why I wasn't married till now?! I loved her instantly.
A few minutes later I was "called for" (it felt like I was called for by my master which irritated me from the "messenger") by Mostafa. I went over to where he was dressed (very smartly may I add) and he, with a very embarrassed look on his face said: "I'm really sorry Nelly, I didn't know, but no women are coming to the conference. You're not going to be able to join us". He seemed more irritated than I felt and so I decided not to express my outrage immediately. But at the same time this was relevant. This spoke more about this candidate who had earlier left out the most important stories of the place. His second mistake quickly evident; his marginalising the women who were going out to vote in a couple of weeks. It was crazy.
What struck me as surprising was the comparison to my recent visit to Sohag. Sohag, a part of Upper Egypt, known for its conservatism, and it's need for gender equality awareness seemed to be years ahead in terms of their involvement of women in the political scene. So much so that in my post about Sohag, I very naively did not mention that the 1000 strong crowd was half women and that a woman from the constituency was running for elections! Today this seemed significant and very worthy of celebrating and mentioning.
While Mostafa went to the conference, I stayed with Nadia. Nadia taught me much in the couple of hours I spent with her and she unwittingly, through her small talk, gave me a bigger, clearer picture of what it meant to marry a man from here. Nadia has been married for just 3 weeks. "This was probably the worst time to get married to Mohammed because of the campaign". She goes on to explain, "but, of course Mohammed can't leave his brother to go through this alone".
Her appreciation for solidarity that chewed into her honeymoon touched me. I asked her if she went out here and had made any new friends. She looked at me with a look that said "you're a foreigner and I'm going to have to explain this to you slowly". She told me laughing, "friends?! What friends? I'm not even allowed to stand out in the balcony to hang the clothes to dry!!" Then, she went on to tell me, lovingly, that sometimes her husband came home early at 8pm and she'd spend time with him. That seemed the highlight of her day. I asked if this made her miss Alexandria (where she'd grown up) and her friends there, and she explained, again very cheerfully, that she only had one friend since knowing Mohammed because "a man is always right in terms of his insight about the world and he had explained that most of her friends where "no good". "
I wasn't sure if it was what she was saying or the cheerfulness she was saying it with, that was making me so uncomfortable. I decided to change the subject from personal relationships to her plans for the future. With every conversational manuver I was making I was discovering how arrogant I was. She did not have plans for the future. She told me that her family owned a series of makeup and accessory shops and that her mother had made each of the 7 children responsible for one of them. She giggled as she confessed that the one week she was in charge of hers she had been responsible for a loss of over 2400 Egyptian pounds and this was for goods that were usually under 5 pounds… She went on to explain to me that different people were made for different things and she was a failure at the outside world and was made for staying at home and shopping when she went to Alexandria.
What happened next was something I don't know how to explain. I couldn't just listen passively and I told her she can't be so harsh on herself or call her self a failure simply because she didn't perform well in retail, that the world was so big and there were a million and one other things that I was sure she could excel in. If you would be quick to accuse me that I was being pretentious, then explain how I broke all the social barriers of this extraordinarily cheerful woman and suddenly moved from a formal eating of gateau in the living room to sitting cross legged on her bed eating biscuits and her showing me her makeup and scarves and telling me intimate stories of friendship and love.
The bedroom we had moved into housed the large LCD screen where her favourite Turkish TV series (which she had watched three times before) was showing in an hour. This was also the only other room she had private access to. It did not match the modern minimalist look of where she received her guests. When she directed me to sit on the bed, I looked at its height thinking "will she pull out some garden ladders, or a stool perhaps to climb?" But I quickly realised no such assistance will be offered and so I jumped on the rich ruby silk and decided to enjoy her hospitality and the friendship she was offering me. As she was opening the drawers to show me her scarves, she explained that a few years ago she had tried a scarf on and realised she looked more beautiful in it so she never took it off since then. Her honesty was refreshing! She was veiled because it accentuated her beauty rather than her modesty and she wasn't in the slightest ashamed.
I asked her if she was happy. She told me that she was. That though Mohammed would swear at her and take out all his frustrations at her, she "worshiped the soil he treads on" and that he was the best sort of man because though "he would hurt her when he was angry, as soon as she apologised, he would act like everything was ok again". How I wanted to throttle Mohammed and society and everything that made this woman who had so much potential feel so weak and grateful for treatment that others take their partners to court for. I didn't say what I thought, not only because there was not enough time, not because I didn't want to intrude, but because….. oh so many reasons I regret now. But Who was I to impose what I thought a healthy relationship was. I say this, but at the same time I felt like screaming at the absurdity of it all, at the plight of women and at how damn hard it was living like this. This trip made me temporarily fall out of love with life.
We were interrupted by the maid who came in to the room to tell me "you're being called for at the conference". I didn't want to leave. As I was leaving, Nadia insisted I freshen up my make up and use her perfume so I could be ready "should I bump into my fate on the way". She stood next to me in the mirror inspecting a spot that appeared on her otherwise flawless skin and complained. I said it might be her period coming to which she took much offence and said "spit those words from your mouth, hopefully it won't come and a baby will instead, what else has he married me for?"
I got in the car waiting for me with two strangers who drove me the 30minutes to the tent I did not want to go into. I wasn't invited in. I was told I could hear them via the speakers from the car and the driver was instructed not to leave me alone to make sure I was "safe". I felt suffocated and I hoped no one would vote for this candidate. The show (it all felt like a show now) came to an end and again Mostafa left the conference with tens of people around him, again trying to be as close to this man as they could. I hadn't heard what he had said to them (the quality of the speakers wasn't great) but the look on the faces of these men was different to the other people on the street. These people had been motivated and you could see it. why the women couldn't be part of this was meaningless.
Mostafa got into the car and apologised to me for my having made the journey and not getting the chance to learn much of the socio political scene that I had come for via the conference. This of course was an unnecessary apology. I do not think I could have learnt more at an artificial set up where politicians play on dreams as much as I did in the coziness of the small room and the genuine sharing of Nadia that evening.
We were driven back to Cairo and I could not help but feel how lucky I was for the privilege of having choice. Not only the choice to participate or to disengage, but to not have someone like me leave my home after my being as hospitable as Nadia had been, feeling pity out of their arrogance at thinking they understood society or what was best for me as I had done. It's never as simple as your convictions make it out to be; the truth is, it's complicated.

Payment plan
Hood College offers families the option of paying tuition bills over a four or five month period covering one semester. Please view the instructions on how to sign up for the Payment Plan by clicking here.
Paying your tuition over a period of months allows you to avoid paying in one lump sum and prevents late fees from being applied to your student account. This monthly payment plan is administered by Nelnet Business Solutions and there is a nonrefundable application fee of $30 to participate in the plan. Payments will be made by debiting your checking or savings account or by credit card. For detailed information regarding the Hood College Monthly Payment Plan, including last day to enroll and the date the payments will be processed, please visit www.mycollegepaymentplan.com/hood. All registrations will be done online at www.hood.edu/paymentplan. Unfortunately, we are not able to offer a payment plan option for the summer sessions.
Please contact the accounting office at 301-696-3621 with any questions or concerns.
Tuition Prepayment Plan
Hood College offers a prepayment plan to students and parents who would like to lock-in the current tuition rate, thus guaranteeing savings by avoiding future rate increases. This plan is available to full-time undergraduate students who are not receiving need-based financial aid, and covers tuition and the comprehensive fee. Room, board and other fees cannot be prepaid and will be charged each semester at the prevailing rate.
To qualify for the prepayment plan, a lump sum payment for a two-, three- or four-year period must be made by August 1 for students entering in the fall semester and January 1 for students entering in the spring semester. A prepayment account will be established with automatic payments to the student's account each semester. If the student withdraws from the College, a refund of the tuition and comprehensive fee for the current term will be made in accordance with the standard refund policy. Any prepaid funds for future years will be fully refunded. Students taking an official leave of absence of one year or less may either: continue participation in the prepayment plan as long as the unused prepayment amount remains deposited with the College, or cancel the prepayment plan and request a refund of the prepaid funds. If the leave of absence exceeds one year, the College will automatically cancel the prepayment plan and issue a refund of any prepaid amounts. Under no circumstances will the College pay interest on any portion of the deposited funds.
For more information regarding Hood College's tuition payment policies, please visit Accounting Services.
Graduate assistantships and workshops provide new and continuing students an opportunity to finance their graduate education, to pursue professional experience and to engage in the life of Hood College. These positions have a research, instruction, student life or administrative support component.
Hood College offers four types of positions:
- Spanish assistantships are designed for native speakers of Spanish to assist with language program activities. Language assistants are recruited by the faculty in the department of global languages and cultures. As part of the award, the assistants live in the Spanish House near campus.
- Academic assistantships present students the opportunity to provide teaching assistance, research assistance, conference and project planning, as well as other academic-related work with various academic departments and graduate programs on campus. Academic assistants receive 3 credits of tuition remission for 90 hours of work per semester.
- Student life workships involve activities with the athletics department, international student programming and the College chaplain, as well as with other programs within the student life division.
To be eligible, all students must be enrolled in at least 6 credits of graduate coursework per semester. New students must be unconditionally admitted to the Graduate School. Continuing students must maintain a 3.0 GPA. Due to the increased responsibilities, Global language studies students must maintain a 3.5 GPA for the Spanish Assistantship.
Assistantships are competitive positions and are open to degree-seeking graduate students. Students may apply for these positions for the fall semester. Some positions may become available in the spring semester. Students are encouraged to contact the individual programs, departments and offices directly regarding questions about the positions. (The Graduate School office does not have this specific information.) Hiring supervisors will directly contact selected applicants to schedule an interview.
All positions and job descriptions will be posted on the Hood College job openings page.
FCPS Direct Payment Program
Qualified Frederick County Public School (FCPS) employees are now able to take advantage of a financially friendly Direct Payment Program when enrolling in graduate courses at Hood College.
Developed collaboratively by Hood's graduate school and FCPS, the Direct Pay eliminates paying tuition up front when registering for courses and then filing for reimbursement at the end of the semester. In most cases, the only out-of-pocket expenses approved FCPS employees pay are the comprehensive and lab fees.
Step One: Qualify
Submit the course request and tuition eligibility forms to the FCPS Human Resources office for approval.
Step Two: Register
Once approved, register for class(es) at Hood.
Step Three: Pay fees
Hood will invoice FCPS employees for any expenses beyond FCPS' allowable reimbursement amount. Students who qualify for full tuition coverage from FCPS may pay as little as $115.
Step Four: Complete the course
Once students successfully complete the course(s) with a grade of "C" or better, FCPS and Hood reconcile tuition payments. Hood then sends FCPS the transcripts and sends students their course grades.

MCPS Plan
Hood College offers both the master of science degree and certification preparation program in Educational Leadership as a cohort through Montgomery County Public Schools (MCPS). Through the cohort, students begin and end the program as a closed learning community. Courses are held at MCPS locations and taught by current and former MCPS administrators.
The cohort program is offered in a prescribed accelerated format, offering one to two courses per term during eight-week periods. Students in the master"s degree program complete in three years, and students in the 18-credit certification program complete in two years. To simplify the enrollment process, students enrolled in the cohort program are automatically registered for the required coursework each semester.
The Hood College cohort program participates in what is known as MCPS Direct Pay. Each year, MCPS establishes a county-wide tuition rate, which historically approximates the Hood graduate tuition rate. Hood College bills MCPS cohort students at the beginning of each term for any tuition not covered by the MCPS tuition rate. MCPS then pays the county-wide tuition rate to Hood College upon the student's successful completion of the coursework with a grade of B or higher. The out-of-pocket expense, if any, for MCPS cohort students is minimal. In addition, because courses are offered off campus, cohort students are waived from the comprehensive fee.
MCPS also offers tuition reimbursement for students who are not part of the Hood College Educational Leadership cohort program. Please check with your human resources department for additional information/eligibility requirements.

Oh, sorry, I completely misread your first post - didn't notice that you mention that you *always* did this. I'm too old school to like breaking things just for the sake of it (and I know people who still use PIL with 1.5.2 and 2.1 in long-running production systems), so I thought you wanted this more of a "let's get ready for 3.X" reason (or perhaps even the "oh shiny new core feature must use it" attitude that's quite common in Python land these days ;-) than anything else. But I think I'll have to leave this as is in 1.1.7 (which should go RC later today or tomorrow), but at least I now understand the rationale for changing it also when targeting 2.X. (having a benefit != 0 definitely helps when you're doing cost/benefit analysis :-) Thanks /F

However, the vast majority of women who miscarry, then go on to have a perfectly healthy pregnancy.
Only 1 percent of women suffer recurrent miscarriages, which is defined as three or more in a row.
This means there is every likelihood that you won't suffer a miscarriage again, and that your next pregnancy will go well.
There are some things you can do to maximise your chances of a healthy pregnancy.
At Tommy's we fund research into the causes and prevention of miscarriage, and we also have miscarriage statistics.

Nurses started coming in at 5am to prepare Omar for the procedure. He was given his first dose for anesthesia, as per our request.
It was then that it finally struck me that Omar will undergo the knife. I was scared and cried for the first time. He asked me to pray with him but I ignored him knowing we won't be able to finish the prayer.
Mama and Papa came in early with Kuya Olejoe for the send off. Kuya Dojoe and Jenny also made it. With everybody, except for Papa, we brought Omar to the operating room.
I must say I was brave! I must be brave for Omar.
Jenny and I thought that we can witness lots of emotions at the airport. But not anymore, nothing beats sending off at the operating room.

The occurrence of an advanced scirrhous carcinoma of the stomach in a Haitian negro 24 years of age is of interest from the standpoints both of age incidence and race incidence. The history revealed the onset of the condition to have antedated his entrance into the hospital and subsequent diagnosis by at least two years. A wide resection of the stomach was done with gratifying immediate post-operative results. The patient died about four months later of recurrence and generalized carcinomatosis.
