GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
This school is a prelude to sending your child to prison. Older children playing football before school starts, in a lot adjacent to the auditorium, is ok but their language is horrible, using the F*** word loudly as parents walk by. These boys are not being supervise by school officials, principal is not present to meet and welcome students to a new day at school. A bell in ring and the children head toward a large auditorium and take a seat. The noise level is unbelievable and administration is taking zero steps to solve this issue. Daroff's test scores are in the 30% to 50% for math and reading forget about the test scores for science, its too low to discuss. The administration is during a disservice to this West Philadelphia community by not educating its children. If you want want your child to be in the fast for prison, go ahead and sent them to Daroff School.
This school was improving for a while, but over the past 2-3 years it has gone into a downward spiral. The school climate used to a little chaotic but positive, now the climate is very negative. Many talented longtime teachers are leaving to teach elsewhere, and some have quit mid year. It is very sad to see a school that once had so much potential failing the students.
My child has attended this school since Pre-K, and is currently in 3rd grade. In my opinion the school has changed for the worst with each passing year, and I am currently looking into transferring my child ASAP. A lot of the staff that were orignally there when my child started have now moved on to other schools, and I can see why. The staff are unprofessional and at times have said unappropriate things to the children on several occasions. Not only has the staff gotten worst so have the children. Frankly the school is becoming very "GHETTO"
My son attended Universal for kindergarten and it was a horrible experience. I had to pull him out halfway through the year and send him to a private school. In my son's class, I observed children constantly hitting and fighting.. there was so much anger and aggression. I saw children leaving the classroom without permission, yelling, cursing, being defiant, hitting adults and the list goes on and on. The administration provided the teacher with very little support for her problem children, she was left to deal with it. It is very important to visit your child's classroom because you never fully know what's going on unless you visit. I predict that Universal will continue to go down because they are tolerating too many problem children. Be careful about sending your child to this school.. I would prefer to pay then to have my child at Universal. I did like the curriculum a lot.. but if the class is out of control, it takes away from the instructional time. So to sum up everything, the school lacks discipline.. I do not recommend it at all.
I have had a great feeling about Universal Institute Charter School from day one. That means even before my son was accepted by the school. Ms. Saba attended to and answered all my questions beyond expectation. She did her job professionally and with a wonderful attention, and so have been 99% of the teachers whom I met there. I have a son who is now a 6th grader, and a daughter who is in the kindergarten class. Ms. Jordan who teaches Kindergarten students is a great teacher, and you could not expect better, because she always does the best you would expect of a teacher. My family are not originally from America, but there has never been a single day that a teacher or the students treat my kids or us(parents) differently. This includes the principal and the assistant principal, Miss Zenobia Shah, who you would always see at UICS everyday from 7 to 7. Yes, from a.m to p.m! Thank you, UICS! We love you
I love this school. I had three sons attend UICS. K-8, 1-8 & 5-8; My oldest is an high school graduate currently working for Avis rental car & part time student. Middle son current in High School 12th preparing for College. Baby boy in High School 11th grade. My babygirl currently attends UICS; she's in K. My boys grown up to be caring/compassionate and discipline young men. I just love this school.
This is my 3rd year at UICS. It's not perfect but they are getting there. Each year new and wonderful ideas are being added to UICS' program. This year I am so excited and I look forward to welcoming in a new bunch of students. We have and exciting year planned for the students. However, I am going to need the help of all my parents for this to work. Turn off the TV, put the video/hand games away until the weekend. Read to your child, have your child read to you, then read together. Don't have time to read to your child, download books from the Free Library of Philadelphia - it's FREE! I downloaded books this summer and listened to them while I was working around in my house and in my garden. It's great!
This is my sons first and last year at this school. i have had nothing but bad experiences at this school from the very first day. Ms Dixon does not know how to care for your child. She leaves them on field trips, doesnt call in case of emergencies,leaves the children in a class by themselves, calls out of work all too often and talks to parents like she doesnt have a clue in the world. Now on to the school, this is the most unorganized school place i have ever been involved in. Half of the time when you come to pick ur kid up they do not know where they are. the phones are never picked up and lets not even talk about the unprofessionalism between secretary and parents. Principals are ot responsive to your requests. the only person in that school that has any sense is Ms.Saaba
I think its not a good school because they critacise they students too much.If you not smart or good they frown on you. Also half the staff is Muslim and they show favotism to their own poeple.
Universal Institue Charter School is noit just a school. It's a place that not only has the best interest of the child but the best interst of the family.
As a former employee of the school, I can honestly say that the administration could care less about the children. The teachers try their hardest to push the children to succeed, while administration worries about padding their wallets and their resumes. The school district of Philadelphia is making a HUGE mistake if they allow Universal to take over any of the renaissance schools.
this school i have nothing but great things to say my son has done very well with his studies the school has done so well that i am enrolling my other childern so i rate this school 100
This is a great school for my grandson i cant wait till my youngest grand son get school so i can enroll them in to the school
this school is very inviting and about educating children. it is by far one of the most institutional schools i know. and speaking as a student i enjoyed my years here and so will you.
I rate Universal Institute Charter School a 5 because I have been a teacher/parent for 8 years. I believe this school is doing its best because UICS has made Academic Yearly Progress for the last 4 years. This is happening when the Public School system in Philadelphia is failing big times.
i think this school is very informative and takes a lot of pride in teaching there student in helping them understand in school in life
My children have been atteneding Universal Charter School for three years now, It is a very warm and kids friendly environment. All my children attend the after school program and it has been very helpful. I like to think all the staff for your help and support.
I have a grandchild enrolled in Universal Institute Charter School. This is her first school experience and it is wonderful. The environment is very welcoming and her teacher is great. I am so happy for a great beginning.
This is my sons first year @ UICS. He was able to adjust very well in the new enviroment. The school made it very easy for him to adjust. I am a huge fan on the education and nutrition programs that the school offers to the child. My son is full of life and vigor and UICS is the perfect school for his enthusisim.
I encountered much unprofessionalism and was very disappointed as my educational standards are high. Slang and improper English, chock full of bad grammar can be heard often in this environment from the children and many support staffers. Kids talk about fighting alot and like to play-fight. This frightened my daughter. I was tired of hearing the alarming things that children were saying to her, so I withdrew her.

This story is about something that can happen to you. Let's take the way-back machine to the end of March 2012 in San Francisco. Kathy Galves had just been kicked out of her house in San Francisco that she loved and adored. An evil bank named Wells Fargo and an unfair court system with a judge that violated her civil rights had booted her out.

Open Letter to the DOJ about Police Brutality

Governor Jerry Brown [D] California has recently asked for an extension on the federal deadline to release state inmates from California's overcrowded prison system. Why not just release all of the people in state prisons on marijuana charges and kill two birds with one stone? The answer of course is that leaders like Jerry Brown hold more allegiance to law enforcement than they do to the constituents who elected them!

New technologies are needed to deal with live cell-based HCS assays on non-adherent cells or to exploit suspension cells in fluidic systems. Here we describe CyGEL™ - a thermo-reversible hydrogelbased 4-D immobilization technology for live cell location without imposing an anchoring to a substrate.
We demonstrate that DNA methylation patterns can serve as characteristic markers to distinguish different cell types. We have identified panels of methylation markers that are specific to mesenchymal stem cells or various differentiated cell types in the mesenchymal lineage. This method of cell type identification has a number of advantages over conventional markers in that it is robust, is both qualitative and quantitative.
Market pressure exists for new paradigms to meet the demands for more rapid and reproducible cell production to keep up with advances in cell-based assays used in drug discovery and development. Novel automation platforms enable high productivity on three dimensional surfaces.
The work presented in this poster covers the investigation of key parameters for the expansion of stem cells in an automated micro-well format. The effect of inoculation seeding density (ICD), well size, passage number and feeding strategies on the proliferation of human mesenchymal stromal cells (hMSC) was investigated. In parallel the effect of well size and seeding density on the proliferation of mouse embryonic stem (mES) cells was also examined.
Recent in vivo studies have demonstrated that transplanted MSC in mice were able to migrate into various tissues including lung, brain, bone marrow, heart and many others. Nevertheless, mechanisms responsible for the MSC migration remain unclear.
In stem cell cultures there is the possibility of infectious disease transmission to the recipients. Any microbial contamination of the donor`s biological products or introduced during the manufacturing process can potentially present a serious hazard to the recipients. The majority of potential contaminants are mycoplasma and other bacterias, yeasts and fungi. Moreover, viral and prion contamination of cell cultures and "feeder" cells is also a common risk.
This poster describes an in vitro model of DAG-induced osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem using various osteoblastic markers. Human MSC should constitute a useful in vitro tool to the effects of osteotropic cancer cells on osteoblast differentiation and to better understand the inhibition of normal formation during the process of tumor-induced osteolysis.
The transplant of cells of human origin is a sector of medicine which shows a high increase and which entails great opportunities for treatment of certain diseases. Stem cell banks should assure the quality, the traceability and the safety of cultures in order to avoid transmission of disease.
The effects of aging on human mesenchymal stem cells, (MSC) were investigated. MSC were isolated from patients of different ages and the different parameters of aging were measured either immediately after isolation or after long-term cultivation in vitro. Markers of senescence were investigated, including p21, p53 and beta-galactosidase levels. Antioxidative defense capacity of the MSC were tested together with markers of oxidative damage and antioxidative enzyme activities.

Certain years are indelibly burned into the popular imagination. 1968 was a year of protest, revolution and psychedelia. 1977 birthed punk rock and Star Wars. And 1991 was the year that everyone on earth loved Rikki Lake, hockey, the Zodiac, and funky funky funky dope fisherman's hats. You remember, right? No? Well, let this McDonald's promotional VHS tape, "1991: Hot Clips," take us all back to where no one ever was…

This years Taylor Wessing Photographic Portrait Prize has been awarded to Spanish born and London based, Jordi Ruiz Cirera (b.1984). The winning photograph captures a Bolivian woman who was clearly reluctant to sit for the camera. The 26-year-old subject is of a Mennonite woman, which is one photograph from the Menonos project, Ruiz Cirera's long term examination of the daily life of a religious community that forbids images. Over a period of time Ruiz Cirera managed to build up a relationship of trust with the community and was eventually able to photograph them. The National Portrait Gallery, presented the £12,000 award on Monday 5 November and the winning portrait has been on show at the Gallery since Thursday 8 November.

Interview with Stuart Semple, Artist and Fashion Designer
Artist, and now fashion designer, Stuart Semple, has utilised his artistic eye to create a cardigan, in collaboration with Aubin & Wills. Built upon the memory and close relationship he had with his Grandad, Semple's newest piece has history and thought sewn into each seam of the cardigan. The piece even has deep pockets to replicate how Semple's Grandad stored his supply of tissues. Semple came to prominence back in 2000 when he made his distinctive social commentary drawings available on ebay. Since then Semple has featured in many major international exhibitions, including his large scale canvases and installations. Semple has even also featured on the cover of Aesthetica back in 2008 discussing Mashups, an exhibition he curated that sought to make sense of the complexities of mass culture. Semple talks to Aesthetica once more about his journey into fashion designing.

Karl Largerfeld and Carine Roitfeld: The Little Black Jacket, Saatchi, London
Karl Largerfeld is a strange icon. He appears, complete with his metal-adorned knuckles, his slick black and white attire, his silvery hair combed neatly on top of his sunglasses-wearing-head, like a fashion-conscious, aristocratic angel from a bizarre monochrome future. On top of his celestial appearance, as the designer for the iconic House of Chanel, Largerfeld is often also heralded as being Godlike for his impeccable sense in fashion-design and his sensitive handling of the iconic silhouettes and classic pieces of the very Coco herself… This isn't where God ends in Karl though. Another step further takes us right to the gates of heaven where Largerfeld actually appears as God, tucked between the cheeks and folds of white, fluffy clouds in the world according to rapper Jean-Roch (see 2012 music video, Saint-Tropez). He is the Wagner, the Saatchi of fashion. He is… apparently… God.

Found December 31, 2012 on Turn On The Jets:
PLAYERS: Rex Ryan, Mike Tannenbaum, Woody Johnson, Mark Sanchez, Bart Scott, Calvin Pace, Tim Tebow, Darrelle Revis, Nick Mangold, David Harris, Kyle Wilson, Anthony Schlegel, Antonio Cromartie, Santonio Holmes, Bill Polian, Eric Mangini
TEAMS: New York Jets, Indianapolis Colts, New York Giants
TEAMS: New York Jets, Indianapolis Colts, New York Giants
As many expected, the New York Jets have decided to part ways with General Manager Mike Tannenbaum on Monday, while making the decision to retain Head Coach Rex Ryan. While the Tannenbaum firing has been anticipated, it was unclear whether or not he would be outright fired, or reassigned to a salary cap management role. This is the best move Owner Woody Johnson could have made. There is no reason to keep Tannenbaum around in any type of role whatsoever. No quality potential General Manager candidate would have accepted the terms of coming in to work alongside Tannenbaum as his salary cap specialist. This organization's front office needs a fresh start. The Jets have constantly been weighed down by their inability to part ways with officials, often preferring to demote them rather than outright releasing them. Prior to the Tannenbaum era, Terry Bradway was demoted from his General Manager position to a job within the personnel department. Bob Sutton, New York's once Defensive Coordinator, was demoted to Linebackers coach when Rex Ryan was brought in. Tannenbaum being outright fired will allow this organization to start completely over, from a front office standpoint, which is exactly what is needed. While Tannenbaum will likely be remembered as the man who gave horrible contracts to Mark Sanchez, Bart Scott, and Calvin Pace, while swinging one of the worst trades in recent NFL history, swapping two draft picks for Tim Tebow, who became nothing more than a decoration on the sideline, let's not forget the good he had done early in his career. Tannenbaum is responsible for drafting very fundamental pieces of this team including Darrelle Revis, Nick Mangold, D'Brickashaw Ferguson, and David Harris. However, Tannenbaum is also the same man who drafted Kyle Wilson, Vernon Gholston, and Anthony Schlegel. Regardless of what he has done in the past, this move was absolutely necessary. Our sources have indicated that Tannenbaum not only has a fractured relationship with the media, but also has very little to no relationship with other General Managers around the league, which makes perfect sense considering the only trades this organization has been able to make recently have been with teams looking to rid themselves of certain players (Antonio Cromartie, Santonio Holmes, Tim Tebow). Tannenbaum also has a poor relationship with the agents of Darrelle Revis, as exposed in Revis's 2010 training camp hold out. With a new General Manager, the chances of locking down the All-Pro CB to a long term deal will be much better. The Jets have been headed down the wrong path since the conclusion of the 2010 season, and Woody Johnson needed to halt this downslide before it got any worse. Now, Johnson will work with newly appointed advisor Jed Hughes, who will help lead the Jets search for a new General Manager. Some names to watch for are Ravens Assistant GM, Eric DeCosta, New York Giants Director of College Scouting, Mark Ross, and former Indianapolis Colts General Manager Bill Polian, just to name a few. Former Jets Head Coach Eric Mangini's name has been floated recently, but there are absolutely no indications of interest from either side at this point. The list of potential candidates will grow in the coming hours and days, but look for Johnson and Hughes to try and make a hire sooner, rather than later, as several other decisions need to be made within the organization, particularly at Offensive Coordinator. Tony Sparano is expected to be out, but his firing may be delayed until a new General Manager is in place, so he can bring in his choice to fill the position. In terms of Ryan, the Head Coach deservedly gets another year to right the ship after being handed an absolutely atrocious roster, in terms of depth, from Tannenbaum. While many believe the decision to retain Rex may narrow the list of potential General Manager candidates, that may not necessarily be the case. Johnson will likely give Ryan his vote of confidence for just one more year, at which point the new General Manager can reassess the situation and go from there. Obviously, if the Jets have a very good season next year, that decision will be an easy one for whoever the new GM is. Most high ranking officials around the league recognize Ryan as a very talented Head Coach, with some flaws pertaining to his off the field antics, particularly the media leaks thats often flow out of Florham Park with more volume than the Hudson River flowing into the Atlantic Ocean. However, a new General Manager will likely change the entire culture of that situation, while demanding Ryan stick to doing what he does best – coaching football. More pieces are sure to fall into place in the coming hours and days, so be sure to stay with Turn On The Jets, as we'll have you covered from top to bottom with breaking new and analysis.

Sermon: How to deal with disappointments?
Image by: supermariano81
"You do not want to leave too, do you?" Jesus asked the Twelve. (John 6:67)
Disappointments are a part part of life. It either makes us or breaks us depending on our reactions. Therefore today's sermon is about reacting to disappointments positively.
1. Forgive and forget
A. Disappointments hurt our emotions
B. This hurt, if not addressed transforms itself into grudge and bitterness
C. Talk to some one about it (not gossip). Pray and ask God to extend his grace so that you can forgive
D. Jesus' example: The disciples who disappointed him, (Peter denied him, Judas betrayed him, the rest deserted him, others crucified him)
E. Reasons why people don't forgive: Think it will punish the offender, Self pity
F. Unforgiveness keeps God's healing at the bay, keeps you from moving forward
G. Most of all forgive yourself
2. Avoid quick decisions
A. Don't base your decisions on emotions
B. The disciples sought to deep fry an entire village in their anger, (Luke 9:52-55)
C. Such decisions may seem appropriate for the moment but they put the future at stake.
3. Seek to know God's purpose
A. God had a purpose in the disappointment of Mary and Martha, (John 11:14-15)
B. God brings forth good out of the bad if we allow, (Romans 8:28)
C. Recognize the cause of disappointment, it will help you in the future.
A. Some times we feel disappointed about God also, (unanswered prayers???)
B. People who let you down are the ones you love and care most (Children, Siblings, Friends, Spiritual leaders etc.)
C. Don't blame them or God – blaming doesn't take you anywhere
D. This is what God's word says, "For his anger lasts only a brief moment, and his good favor restores one's life. One may experience sorrow during the night, but joy arrives in the morning." (Psalms 30:5, NET) – Hold fast onto this promise and God will surely deliver you.
E. Invitation: Come to the altar this evening if you like God to re-flame your hopes and restore your faith in Him.

The ball has dropped which means it's time to begin alphabetizing your New Year's resolutions. But before welcoming in 2013 and throwing out last year's memories, take one last chance to relive all the glorious, splendid, heartbreaking, tragic, viral, sweet, crazy and fantastic moments of the past 12 months.
From Honey Boo Boo to the birth of Blue Ivy, SOPA to NASA, iPhone 5 releases to GIF domination, Gabby Douglas' golden moments to Chick-Fil-A PR nightmare, cannibals to a Cruise-Holmes split, to a string of mass shootings that will make us remember this year's incredible heroes and victims — here's to you, 2012.
Full list in Mashable.

I tried this last month, and it was like gourmand heaven! It was a beautiful scent, sweet, boozy, intoxicating, with EPIC longevity! In fact, I was able to smell it on my skin well into the next day! I don't see any talk of this though. I figured it could be because it is labeled as a pour femme, but that has never stopped us before (Guerlain's other popular exclusive pour femme, SDV for example). So what gives? Have you guys tried this one? If so, what do you think? It's easily one of the top 10 gourmands I've ever tried!

Do we know where our aid spending goes? Not really, say the mandarins
David Cameron claimed at PMQs today that Britain is right to maintain – and increase – its spending on international aid. But Sue Cameron's Notebook this morning in the Financial Times will make for uncomfortable reading:
"Should David Cameron, prime minister, execute another of his elegant U-turns – this time on the large sums going to poor countries riddled with corruption? Certainly pressure for him to think again about foreign aid is growing. The latest blast comes from Sir Edward Clay, our former high commissioner to Kenya. In a powerful paper for the House of Lords Economic Affairs Committee, Sir Edward says corruption is endemic among many countries receiving UK aid, yet checks on the way that our money is spent are thoroughly inadequate."
Sir Edward points out that the £9.1 billion spending target "is more than we spend on policing, more than on the Olympics . . . more than the UN spends on global peacekeeping". As (Sue) Cameron also points out, these criticisms "emerged only 24 hours after DfID's top official, Mark Lowcock, was forced to admit to the Commons' Public Accounts Committee that he did not know how much aid money was lost to fraud and corruption. Sir Edward gave the committee an example. 'The permanent secretary in Kenya's finance ministry estimated last November that he lost a third of his budget – $2bn – to graft'."
There are strong arguments to be made in favour of aid spending – see, for example, Sir John Major's piece in the Sunday Telegraph a few weeks ago. But the case for increasing it, at a time when every other budget is coming under pressure, is far more shaky – particularly with 69 per cent of the population opposing the idea, and an astonishing 43 per cent believing that such spending should be scrapped altogether. Andrew Mitchell is doing much to solve the problems of wasteful spending – but Downing Street has plenty of work to do if it is to sway the public on this one.

41-year old, Li Bingbing!
"Beauty is worse than wine, it intoxicates both the holder and beholder."
Apparently sleeping on your face causes wrinkles. Your head can be almost 7 or so pounds! So you should try to sleep on your back or side ~~ I'm totally guilty of sleeping on my face. I usually end up on my back but to start with I fall asleep best on my face… Going to have to try and stop!
First I like to scrub off what dead skin I can in the shower or even after just doing a foot soak before bed. Then while your feet are still fresh from soaking slather on some thick moisturizer or coconut oil [that's what I've been using lately] and then put on a pair of cotton socks~~ Or those fuzzy sleeping socks!
Sometimes in the deep cold depths of Alberta winter I would put lotion on my hands and wear my stretchy gloves to bed but… I always end up taking them off half way through the night … also my hands are not so dry that I need to do that~~
3. Brighten Your Teeth
I have been seeing a lot of new whitening products that you put on and leave over night. I recommend the Paula's choice brighten up stick. It's like … 14 bucks and has a sort of waxy texture that you rub onto your teeth and it can get rid of mild stains~
4. Add Volume and Wave
Actually I heard it's bad to sleep with your hair loose as it can get damaged.. not sure where or how exactly that happens.. but I usually keep my hair in a loose bun on the top of my head with a scrunchie to sleep. It prevents my hair from going dead flat in between washes [remember I only wash 2-3 times a week] and can give it a little curl at the ends~
If you know that tomorrow morning you will have enough time to wake up and shower [I'm a night bather myself], or if you have the day off, why not put a deep conditioner in and sleep in it!
Personally I usually do this Friday night or Saturday night cause I don't work on the weekends so I can wash my pillow case the next day and leave the treatment in while I'm doing chores for extra extra time ^^
Since I just dyed my hair I've been making an Avocado and Honey treatment ~ But store bought ones are fun too. I posted the picture of my Natto pack that I got from Joo Hee and it's really awesome~ A little perfumy smelling but meh~ Also coconut oil… I love coconut oil <3
Oh and I guess you can sleep with a shower cap on to keep the pillow clean but … that leaves a line in my forehead and is kind of uncomfortable. I just put my ends up to a top knot and sometimes I put some saran over the bun part. I usually don't need to put too much or any treatment on the scalp area so if I'm doing an avocado treatment I just saran the bun and the rest of the hair is just dry so it's all good.
I can admit that I do not do this now. However I used to last summer and I keep thinking that I'll pick up a self tanner but never seem to remember when I'm actually at a superstore…Whatever. I tan so fucking fast I already have a pretty wicked tan line from the one week of sun we got in April…
But yeah doing it at night means that in the morning you can wake up, put on a normal, nice smelling lotion and not have to deal with any smells or anything~ Also if you shower at night like me you will have exfoliated and not have to risk streaks~~
You could buy those expensive ones. Latisse is actually scientifically proven to give you results… but for me I already have a lot of lashes and the main thing is that wearing mascara day in and day out means that they can get a little dry [not with the Japanese brands though ;)] and fall out a lot faster. … especially the bottom outer corners.. wtf is up with that?
I either massage coconut oil into them or you can squeeze a little juice from a slice of lemon into some olive oil and use a clean mascara applicator [I steal them from Sephora :D] to apply it nightly. Keep that in your fridge.
8. Facial Massage
After my nightly shower or bath I sometimes like to give my face a nice massage. Lately, as I have mentioned several billion times now, I have been loving coconut oil. After I massage it in I just leave it over night to be honest but you can wash it off and go through your whole skincare routine.
You can also use olive oil or any sort of facial oil you prefer from in store. My mom had one from Fresh that she was using… I tried it and found it to be too heavily scented for my preference.
In my personal opinion there isn't a wrong way to massage your face as long as you aren't doing anything crazy like pulling it hard or … I dunno putting like pizza grease on your face. But if you like to follow a specific formula you can just goole it as tons of Asian magazines put facial massages into their issues every month.. by Asian I mean Japanese…
I do know that there is a sort of lymphe node release point for your under eye bags that you can activate by gently but firmly swiping from the outside of your under eye to the inside and up to the front of your eye brow and kind of pressing a bit there. It's hard to describe in text but it does seem to help a bit if the cause of your panda eyes is build up of fluid. Sleeping on your back with your head elevated will also help that too ^^
photos transferred to glass
So beautiful!
Everything here is great but especially the bowtie with the denim vest. Also her makeup and hair. And … all the things.
The Three Graces by Emile Vernon.
"I have found that all ugly things are made by those who strive to make something beautiful, and that all beautiful things are made by those who strive to make something useful."
I love how the NARS team translated this rich Naeem Khan SS13 look to compliment each skintone using matte and gloss finishes.

Perfect for this city dweller...
oh my gosh and golly...
am living in a NO frills work live space
finding that hot plate cookery is a lot of fun (just have to be careful to share out the electricity so as not to blow my and my neighbors fuses)
THIS...... would rock.
Best. Gift. For. Boyfriend. Ever.
This looks awesome. My husband would love not having to go out in the cold to grill.
pick me pick me! i've been looking for a solution to my lack of grill space issue and this is it!
I dont see a submission form anywhere? Am I crazy? :)
Love this!!!
this is just the kind of thing we've been looking for! we don't have a place for a grill outdoors. so awesome!! i want it!
This would be great since i don't have an outdoor space to get my grill on...
Oh my lord...the hubby will freak out when he sees this!
Thank you for not leavin us out in the cold!
I ♥ thekitchn.com!
I Love it!
Oh my Gosh! this would be great for me because I am moving to my very first apartment, and as a student I need to cook my own food!
This summer I received the Foreman BBQ grill (the circular one with a stand) as a gift and while it generally does the job, it has not proven to be the best for indoor cooking since it is overlarge. Storage is also a huge issue. This little broiler looks to be a better tool.
I promise to cook if I'm the winner!!
This is so cool, perfect for apartment dwellers who cook, like me!
WOW! What an awesome grill!!!
Too cool. I need it.
I could grill indoors during the cold weather and not have to wait for spring awesome
Amazing design.
Grilling made easy.
I would have fun grilling on that.
this is soooo cool i waaaaaaaaaant it :) !!!!!!! pretty please :)
I would like this item.
It's beautiful. My mouth is watering just thinking of the things I can grill on it. :)
Grilling indoors NYC wow.
I agree! Great for NYC!
Amazing! And yes, my countertop is big enough!
OMG the taste of a perfectly grilled steak in mid Dec. in NY......awesome.
perfect for a woman who has never used an outdoor grill....
Pick Me Pick Me! What an Awesome Grill...
i need this for my kitchen!! :)
i smell burgers and bratwurst in the midst of winter!
Very nice.
Nice to be able to grill year round.
grilling indoors, smoke free! Amazing!
amazing!!! i dont have a patio, so this would be fantastic for indoor!!
this would be awesome!
This would be so great to have in my kitchen!
george foreman, move over!
What a well designed appliance.
Both my sons get BBQ withdrawal symptoms when winter sets in here and the outdoor grill has to be put away, this would cure that problem.
That would be amazing!! It would be perfect for my tiny, patio-less apartment.
Just what I need to finally try out the recipes on an indoor grilling book I got three years ago!
This grill would be great for graduate student looking for other options for cooking. Definitely realized how valuable cook items are when you don't have any!
The hubby would love it!
All I want for Xmas is a two-tiered grill.. a two-tiered grill.. a two-tiered grill....
Oh, drummergal, that is brilliant! But my broiler is dead and my slumlord won't fix it and for health reasons I need it more than you (trust me), so I can't unselfishly wish it for. But I do hope you win something this yuletide.
My "stove" has no broiler. This would be brilliant!
Definitely want it, please.
somedays lighting the grill is too much work
Perfect for the winter.
omg i need to win this! I love it! I have just recently decided I need to learn how to cook at 28! I have A LOT of catching up to do...this will help
very cool! my husband would love this!
Perfect for the long New England winters!
Oo this would be perfect for my fiance'!! He loves to grill and the cold weather forces him indoors often!
THIS IS AMAZING!!! I love to cook but a big grill is too much responsibility this is PERFECT!
This would be perfect for living in Michigan, and in grad school! I would love it!
i want one!!
This would be great, I miss grilling in the winter.

Welcome to Triple M Bar
Triple M Bar Ranch is a family-owned and run ranch in Southeastern Colorado. We take pride in raising naturally grown lamb and Great Pyrenees guard dogs that are born and raised with our sheep. My husband, David and I are the main ranch hands.
Our ranch headquarters sits on Buckeye Hill in Crowley County on the bluffs overlooking the Arkansas River Valley. We also have grazing land in the valley along the river.
Can Triple M Bar's flock create a Colorado lamb comeback? - 5/2/2013Westword
"The bleating of sheep in the barn — cries of every timbre, pitch and volume — sounds like a clamorous outdoor market in the thick of the afternoon. Ewes and lambs alike call incessantly, straining to be heard. One young lamb, not even an hour old, mews softly in the yard. Mary Miller, one of the Ms behind Triple M Bar, gently picks up the lamb and takes her to the safety of the barn; the mother follows." Full story...
Panzano chef Elise Wiggins makes the most of Colorado lamb - 5/2/2013Westword
At Panzano, executive chef Elise Wiggins, a self-described "lamb pimp," and her team interpret old-world cuisine through local ingredients — including Triple M Bar lamb. "We elevate and modernize any kind of Italian dish to use it with the lamb," Wiggins says, and her lamb ribs reflect this philosophy.Full story...

My truck came with a new set of 265/75 duratracs and I love them so far. They seem super quiet and handle great on the pavement IMO. Going to get them dirty in the morning tomorrow.
But I have been driving a dodge 1500 with 325/60/20 trail grapplers on it for about 5 years so that may be why the ride feels so nice and quiet.

Boy, oh boy do I have a surprise for you! You're never going to guess who offered me a digital copy of her cookbook to give away to you?
Ok, maybe you will guess if you follow me on Facebook. (And by "follow" I mean "follow" and not just "like." If you just "like" me, they won't show you any of my posts anyway.) Because if you "follow" me on Facebook, I told you all about this giveaway already, so it's no surprise. But you could always humor me and feign new excitement.
None other than Miz Shaye, fellow Homesteader Extraordinaire at The Elliott Homestead and Gal-Who-Sure-Knows-How-to-Eat-Good of the From Scratch cookbook fame!!
I know!
I'm so excited for you at the prospect of your having your own From Scratch cookbook!
And I'll tell you what's so great about having a copy of the ebook version… it has all the same great recipes, all the same wonderful beauty, but it is a LOT easier to clean the spills and splashes off the pages after cooking up a storm and it won't wear out from overuse the same way a print version will. So that's a real bonus, is it not?
I reviewed From Scratch in the past. If you live under a rock and haven't checked out all of the goodness sandwiched between the book covers, you can hear me sing the praises of this book here.
So since I already filled your ear before, I won't waste anymore of your precious time. You'll be wanting to use it for getting yourself some extra entries and maximizing your chances at getting your hands on these recipes!
Subscribers will need to click through to enter the giveaway! Giveaway ends on Friday May 30th at midnight EST & I'll email the winner on Saturday.
Naturally, I hope it will be you!

Another day, another cutesy image of Alexander Skarsgard and Ellen Page to overanalyze. Today's pic? This cuddly shot posted on the Twitter feed of The East director Zal Batmanglij with the following explanatory text: "This reminds me of shooting. When we'd lie in the grass listening to Toby [Kebbell] practice Rostam's piano piece. #TheEast."
Aww, what a sweet photo ... for me to poop on!!!
Yeah, that's right. You call this romantic? He's kissing her ... hat. Is hat-kissing some obscure Swedish courtship ritual? Because I don't know about you, but I've never seen "hat" show up on one of those erogenous zone lists in magazines. Want to really knock your man's socks off tonight, ladies? Surprise him by planting a big wet one on his baseball cap! Unless, of course, Alexander Skarsgard isn't kissing Ellen Page at all in this picture.
I mean, it's really impossible to tell what's going on here. Why jump to drastic (and depressing) conclusions? Think about it. ASkars could be:
1. Sneezing into Ellen Page's conveniently absorbent headwear.
2. Covering his nose because a garbage truck was driving down the street.
3. Politely responding to Ellen Page's invitation: "My new shampoo smells like strawberries, wanna sniff my hair?"
4. Spilling secrets about True Blood Season 6 (I'm gonna kick Billith's ass!").
5. Quietly sobbing in Swedish shame over the IKEA horse meatballs scandal.
See? Why is everybody assuming Alexander Skarsgard is KISSING Ellen Page?! People have no imagination, I swear.
Do you think Alexander Skarsgard is kissing Ellen Page in this picture?
Image via Twitter
I love them as a couple! I love the fact that she seems so, "normal", and she bagged a hot ass guy. Which, makes me appreciate him even more... a hot guy, that doesn't go for the hollywood typical, brain-dead "hot chicks".... I LOVE YOU ALEXANDER SKARSGARD :)
ROFL ... this made me laugh and laugh and laugh.
your stories about these two are getting so boring

Had to install the Ford stock radiator by Builder, May 14, 2013
|Ease of Use/Installation:
|Overall Rating:
After the first radiator was delivered bent the second was installed and never made it out of the mechanics bay. As soon as he started it up fluid came pouring out of the passenger side of the radiator. I had to pay for the labor to install it and pull it back out and install the Ford stock radiator.

One of Bostons wealthiest and most respected families becomes embroiled in the struggle to birth a new nation, as several serve valiantly in the Colonial Army while others choose less admirable ways to show their patriotismyoung Sam Bradford and his partner attack and pillage merchant ships. Then Rachel Bradford does the the unthinkable and harbors a Hessian soldier.
Their high-wheeling cousin, David Gordon, has his eye on the woman Sam is smitten with. Sams partner is in love with Sams sister Rachel. Dreamer and artist Matthew Bradford has been betrayed by the woman he loved and struggles with forgiveness. Rachel is being pursued by a preacher and a pirate, neither of whom is the man of her dreams. Shes in love with the enemy, an unwilling-mercenary with a heart for music.
The story drags in places and goes off on too many tangents, but Gilbert Morris fans should be satisfied with the newest of his family sagas.(Aug., 320 pp., $9.99)

You think they would've learned after the removal of the Black and Plagued Proto Drakes from Naxx, that players tolerance for taking away things like this is minimal. I was three achievements short of the Plagued and found out when my guildies and I checked our meta to see what we needed to get for that week. We were horrified to find no reward for the meta. We had been working so hard to get it.
I can imagine how horrible it be to wake up and notice your missing title only to find out Blizzard had yanked it and simply said "Sorry too easy to get, try again and harder this time!" I imagine the Exalted titled people out there felt like I did with the drakes. Cheated.
On the plus side, at least the title wasn't completely removed from the game, but to take it away from people, low. Very low. *shakes fist at Blizzard*

Going on an old-school Denny's trip, and hanging out with Devin for the first time since he had a falling out with the D&D group six weeks ago. Gonna make sure I have fun no matter what =]
I got a job yesterday and started today. So I should be happy, right?
Wrong: you don't know me very well.
I had probably one of the most somber conversations of my life with the girl I love the other day, and I thought everything would be okay, but all it took was me seeing one picture of her with her boyfriend and now I'm back to the place where I've sunk so many times in recent months, and I should have seen it coming a mile away.
Alone. Unwanted. It feels like I don't have friends any more. I think if I hadn't just started a new job, I could die tonight and nobody would notice for weeks. I just want all this pain to stop.
Everyone always says that suicide is selfish, because you're hurting those who care about you. But isn't it just as selfish for them to care more about how THEY feel than how you do? What's even worse is that she's going to read this, and wish she'd just never met me at all =\
Wow, I'm such a fuck-up.

Post with 3 notes
The feeling has been creeping up on me more and more lately. I can beat it back for a little while with distractions like gaming, but it always comes back stronger. I miss having someone to give my attention and affection to. I miss always having someone to talk to no matter what. Manda does a pretty good job of that, but I hate relying on her all the time because I know she has her own stuff going on. I just wish I didn't feel like this anymore =\
Post with 8 notes
I get worked up over the stupidest little things these days, and I wind up posting about them on here, so they can be ignored by a bunch of people who don't care enough to dig deeper. I really only have a handful of close friends left, and I can never shake the feeling that I'm an emotional burden on them, and that they'd be better off without my friendship. I've been backstabbed and lied to by "friends" enough in my life that I scrutinize all but my closest friends, and as bad as I feel about it I STILL feel like I only get half the truth from some of them. I wish people could just be honest with me =\

A personal note from the creator of Fancy Cloth Baby & Co-owner of Soapbox Holistics!
My name is Christine! I am a stay at home mom of three boys! I decided to cloth diaper in 2010 When I was pregnant with my youngest! I was amazed at ALL the different styles the modern cloth diapering world had to offer! I began researching for hours, cloth diapers become sort of my obsession! I quickly discovered a community of moms who sewed their own! That is where it all began. I already had a degree in fashion design so my passion for creating was there! I have been testing my diapers and patterns since 2011 and believe we are always improving each product we sew or stir up! :) Then, In 2012, a close friend gave a homemade jar of brown sugar scrub as a present! While sewing up cloth diapers, I decided that all natural body care for babies and moms would be a great addition to the Fancy Cloth Baby line. A business partnership was born! After exstensive research, product testing, feedback, and love from supporters..(like you), Sharleen and I have been able to offer 100% all natural body care for the entire family!! The End.

Pakistan: Now or Never?
Perspectives on Pakistan
India, Pakistan and covert operations. All in the family?
Do read this piece by Gurmeet Kanwal, the head of the Indian Army's Centre for Land Warfare Studies, about how India should respond to the Mumbai attacks with covert operations against Pakistan.
He says that "hard military options will have only a transitory impact unless sustained over a long period. These will also cause inevitable collateral damage, run the risk of escalating into a larger war with attendant nuclear dangers and have adverse international ramifications. To achieve a lasting impact and ensure that the actual perpetrators of terrorism are targeted, it is necessary to employ covert capabilities to neutralise the leadership of terrorist organisations."
But he also argues that India's covert capabilities in Pakistan were wound down on the orders of the Prime Minister in 1997 so as to promote reconciliation. "If that is true, a great deal of effort will be necessary to establish these capabilities from scratch. It will take at least three to five years to put in place basic capabilities for covert operations in Pakistan as both the terrorist organisations and their handlers like the ISI will have to be penetrated. The R&AW must be suitably restructured immediately to undertake sustained covert operations in Pakistan. The time to debate this issue on moral and legal grounds has long passed."
Pakistan has long accused India of supporting militants in its Baluchistan province, among other places, in retaliation for what New Delhi sees as Pakistani support for separatist movements in Punjab, the north-east, and in Kashmir. But for a democratic government, the value of covert operations is limited. India's Congress-led government is under pressure now to show it is standing firm against the Mumbai attacks and (leaving aside ethical questions) you can't achieve electoral popularity with covert operations. That's why it's particularly interesting that someone like Gurmeet Kanwal would suggest them.

The Man in the Iron Mask had the great fortune of hitting theaters a mere three months after Titanic transformed Leonardo Di Caprio into a celluloid god, capable of choosing from any film project in development. But it still barely scraped up $50 million at the box office, probably because it cast Leo in the decidedly un-Jack roles of weaselling pubescent King Louis XIV, a true creep, and his twin brother Philippe, who spends years clamped into an iron mask (which, miraculously, does nothing to hurt his complexion). It's a strange choice for Di Caprio, even when not viewed as a follow-up to Titanic, which it wasn't; Di Caprio has been known for his offbeat indie choices (What's Eating Gilbert Grape, The Basketball Diaries) both before and after his outing on the doomed oceanliner. It's a given that The Man in the Iron Mask has no ambitions toward high art, but it ends up being rather lackluster escapism as well -- yet another retelling of Alexandre Dumas' Three Musketeers, but set in their later years and featuring the aging swashbucklers' attempt to replace the vicious Louis with Philippe, the throne's rightful heir. It's more soap opera than swordplay epic, with few actors seeming to relish their roles. There's much more melodramatic soul-searching than clashing of sabers.
