345 Main Street
National Theatre Live is the National Theatre's groundbreaking project to broadcast the best of British theatre live from the London stage to cinemas across the UK and around the world.
Who We Are: National Theatre Live launched in June 2009 with a broadcast of the National Theatre production of Phèdre with Helen Mirren. We've since broadcast more than twenty other productions live from the National Theatre, and on occasion other theatres in the UK.
What We Do: Our broadcasts have now been experienced by over 1.5 million people in 500 venues around the world, including 250 in the UK. Past broadcasts include Danny Boyle's Frankenstein with Benedict Cumberbatch and Jonny Lee Miller, One Man, Two Guvnors with James Corden and The Last of the Haussmans with Julie Walters.
How We Do It: Though each live broadcast is filmed in front of a live audience in the theatre, cameras are carefully positioned throughout the auditorium to ensure that cinema audiences get the 'best seat in the house' view of each production. Where these cameras are placed is different for each broadcast, to make sure that cinema audiences enjoy the best possible experience every time. Satellites allow the productions to be broadcast live, without delay, to cinemas throughout the UK as well as many European venues. Other venues view the broadcasts 'as live' according to their time zone, or at a later date.

38 or 357? I like the idea of all the ammo options you can load in the 357 model.
Does the extra four ounces really make any difference if you pocket carry? I would probably just shoot 38+ p anyway, but it would be cool to have the option of 357s!
They also have the new 38 with the boot grip and night sight. Anyone have this version yet?

Cameco Corp (USA) (NYSE:CCJ)
The Company is engaged in the exploration, development, mining, refining, conversion, and fabrication of uranium for sale as fuel for generating electricity in nuclear power reactors in Canada and internationally.
This company is the primary stake holder in the Cigar Lake Mine, which is the one of the largest holds of Uranium in the world. Mining is supposed to begin in 2013, when it does I can only see this stock continue to rise. Also the whole issue with negative nuclear press from Japan has somewhat blown over, which again is only good for Uranium.

Health Insurance Tax,"HIT", may cost Texans their jobs
POSTED: Wednesday, April 3, 2013 - 6:15pm
UPDATED: Thursday, April 4, 2013 - 9:30am
Tyler, Tx — President Obama's Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act included more than $1 trillion in tax hikes. One of the largest tax hikes in this act is the Health Insurance Tax, also referred to as "HIT". This tax increase will go into effect January 2014 , and for the next ten years is estimated to reach $102 billion.
While this tax increase technically falls on the shoulders of the insurers, many fear these costs will trickle down onto businesses and employees. In fact, the National Federation of Independent Business estimates that by 2022 the private sector will cut up to 262, 000 jobs by 2022. This study also estimates that Texas will lose 14,000 jobs by 2022.
Mechele Mills of Better Business Bureau explains this tax will effect some more than others, saying, "Small businesses in particular and sole proprietors' concern is that they may be forced to pass those costs onto their employees and reduce their take home pay."
Although there are some Health Care professionals who believe it is not just "HIT" Texans should worry about, but rather the entire Affordable Care Act. Mark Everett of Hilliard Box Insurance tells KETK," I believe that could happen. Maybe not necessarily because of the Health Insurance Tax but more importantly because of the increased cost of health insurance itself, because of the plan design and the Affordable Care Act."
Although this tax does not take effect until early next year, Mills advises those worried about this increase should prepare by investing wisely, paying down any debt, and be make good decisions with current resources.
Comments News Comments
This type of reporting is really starting to make me sick. This article has no journalistic integrity WHATSOEVER, and is only being generated to raise baseless fear among the poor and uneducated. Put this CRAP in the editorial section and send your reporters and editor back to school. Here's an idea for a story...take a sick and uninsured person into ANY emergency room or healthcare facility and try to get them effective care. Then report on what happens. THAT would be an ACTUAL story.
And you putzs VOTED FOR HIM. Him, Pelosi, Reid.
"We have to pass it in order to see what is in it".
Well you now know what is in it.

|Third Millennium Bible (TMB)
|New International Version (NIV)
|1 <> Truly God is good to Israel, even to such as are of a clean heart.
|1 Surely God is good to Israel, to those who are pure in heart.
|2 But as for me, my feet were almost gone; my steps had well nigh slipped.
|2 But as for me, my feet had almost slipped; I had nearly lost my foothold.
|3 For I was envious of the foolish when I saw the prosperity of the wicked.
|3 For I envied the arrogant when I saw the prosperity of the wicked.
|4 For there are no bands in their death, but their strength is firm.
|4 They have no struggles; their bodies are healthy and strong.
|5 They are not in trouble as other men; neither are they plagued like other men.
|5 They are free from the burdens common to man; they are not plagued by human ills.
|6 Therefore pride compasseth them about as a chain; violence covereth them as a garment.
|6 Therefore pride is their necklace; they clothe themselves with violence.
|7 Their eyes stand out with fatness; they have more than heart could wish.
|7 From their callous hearts comes iniquity; the evil conceits of their minds know no limits.
|8 They are corrupt, and speak wickedly concerning oppression; they speak loftily.
|8 They scoff, and speak with malice; in their arrogance they threaten oppression.
|9 They set their mouth against the heavens, and their tongue walketh through the earth.
|9 Their mouths lay claim to heaven, and their tongues take possession of the earth.
|10 Therefore His people return hither, and waters of a full cup are wrung out to them.
|10 Therefore their people turn to them and drink up waters in abundance.
|11 And they say, "How doth God know? And is there knowledge in the Most High?"
|11 They say, "How can God know? Does the Most High have knowledge?"
|12 Behold, these are the ungodly, who prosper in the world; they increase in riches.
|12 This is what the wicked are like-- always carefree, they increase in wealth.
|13 Verily I have cleansed my heart in vain and washed my hands in innocence.
|13 Surely in vain have I kept my heart pure; in vain have I washed my hands in innocence.
|14 For all the day long have I been plagued and chastened every morning.
|14 All day long I have been plagued; I have been punished every morning.
|15 If I say, "I will speak thus," behold, I should offend against the generation of Thy children.
|15 If I had said, "I will speak thus," I would have betrayed your children.
|16 When I thought to understand this, it was too painful for me,
|16 When I tried to understand all this, it was oppressive to me

Charly's Column – Mod_bw for Apache
Fighting the Heavyweights
A powerful web server will not help you much if too many users are competing for the bandwidth of its network connection. Sys admin columnist Charly came to a decision: The big data hogs get less favorable spots at his watering hole in future.
I have a web server with a 100Mbps connection that runs dozens of virtual hosts. One of them provides ISO images of Linux distributions, some of which are several gigabytes in size. If enough people try to grab them at the same time, the pipes get blocked – downloads push the remaining HTTP traffic off the road, Apache response times skyrocket, and users are annoyed.
My solution here goes by the name of libapache2-mod-bw [1], or similar, depending on your distribution. With this module, I can control the use of bandwidth (bw). Figure 1 shows an example with an excerpt from an Apache configuration that demonstrates the module's abilities.
Not surprisingly,
BandwidthModule On enables bandwidth throttling for this virtual host. In contrast,
ForceBandwidthModule On looks like it might be redundant, but the line is definitely necessary; it forces all the connections through mod_bw – not just selected mime types.
The two
Bandwidth lines state the maximum speed at which Apache sends its data to the defined clients. You need to watch out for the order here; the "first match" principle applies: The first matching bandwidth rule on a client wins, so you need to define the specific rules before the more generic ones.
If you define a maximum speed of zero in the configuration, as here in the first bandwidth line, there are no limits – the 10.50.0.0/16 network has free rein. For all other clients, the 20Mbps limit set in the next line applies. Watch out for the pitfalls, though! The speed must be set in bytes per second, which explains the value 2,621,440.
Hitting the Biggies
LargeFileLimit gives me the ability to throttle the speed for users downloading large files, whereas the host delivers small files at normal speed. I need to specify three parameters: The first is the file type, which is
.iso in this example; mod_bw would also accept an asterisk as a wildcard. This is followed by the file size in bytes; thus, typing 2,097,152 corresponds to 2MB. Finally, I set the speed for the heavyweights. I chose 5Mbps, which is expressed in bytes per second, or 655,360.
You also can limit the number of concurrent connections. The zero in the first
MaxConnection line means there are no limits for the 10.50.0.0/16 network, whereas an upper limit of 32 parallel connections is in force for all others. If the limit is exhausted, Apache normally responds with an error code of 503 (service unavailable), which is pretty nonspecific if you ask me. However, mod_bw gives you the option of specifying a different code; I decided to go for 510 and returning an error page I designed myself.

Hey guys, I would like help with something.
I am new to riven and I could say I am pretty decent, but I can't find a good build for him, I went to mobafire but I didn't like it, I also went to solomid and the build was fine but I wasn't tanky, guardian angel didn't work out and I didn't do damage near the end of the game. So I am asking if you people who are experts at riven know any builds for him..
Your help is appreciated.
Okay, now I understand she is a girl..
Guy on a bus
Senior Member
BCBCBCBCBCBCBCBCBCBCBCBCBCBCBCBCBCBCBC and if you still have room after those 50 BCs, buy 50 more.
At least, until BCs are fixed, after that.... build for a health/damage combination.. possibly taking warmogs/atmas.
You should probably understand that Riven is a girl first of all.
Oh, lol I forgot that she was a girl..
Build Bloodthirsters. It's a lot of AD, which your E shield scales to. And it's a lot of life steal.
Seriously, so far I still haven't really altered my Riven build since the patch. I'm still building boots, Frozen Mallet, and stacking Bloodthirsters.
Build a ton of ad bloodthirster and I heard black cleaver it good btw riven is a girl

"One of her best."
I have read all most all of Nora Roberts books. This book just flows from the very start . You will laugh and cry all the way through the book. The characters are so believeable and fun. If you like nora roberts books this one is a MUST HAVE.
"Narrator all wrong"
Voice to soft would work for children books. Reading slow paced,.no change in pitch for different characters or when there should have been shouting, only thing that help was to change payback speed..
"Narrator does not fit story."
Waited a long time for this Drake Sister book.Second in the series last to be released in audio. It is going to take me a while to wade thourgh it. Narrator sounds like a teenager and to young for series. All of the other books voices fitted the age or the character.

Authorities in Arkansas say preliminary autopsy results confirm country music singer Mindy McCready's death was a suicide.
The Cleburne County sheriff said in a statement Wednesday that preliminary autopsy results from Arkansas' state crime lab show McCready's death was a suicide from a single gunshot wound to the head.
Investigators have said McCready apparently shot and killed her late boyfriend's dog before she turned the gun on herself Sunday at her home in Heber Springs, Ark. Authorities found McCready's body and the dog on the front porch where her longtime boyfriend, musician David Wilson, died last month of a gunshot wound to the head.
Authorities are investigating Wilson's death as a suicide but haven't determined an official cause of death yet.

Hello every body
I do not know if this is the correct place for this post. I do not find any sub forum for
qestions like this. I am just sharing my thoughts (rather worries) here.
Recently Autodesk has announced new pricing policy from the 1st of February 2013. From that
date any upgrade - even from the previous version- would be 70 percent of the cost of the
software. Autodesk is forcing to go for subscription. In India (where Autodesk products are
unimaginably expensive - even at the special Indian price), I do not know how many like me
- who runs a SOHO private practice with only 5 staff - and who is bent on using legal,
licensed softwares only - would continuously be able to afford the recurring expenditure on
subscriptions every year.
So many of us have made hue & cry regarding the prices of Autodesk products here in India -
only in vain.
If the Autodesk products became affordable enough to Indian conditions, even though the
money made by Autodesk would be smaller (than from other countries), but it will have a
great many number of buyers, thereby enormously bringing down the unauthorised use of
software. Or probably it would be making much more money in selling to great many numbers
at a much lower cost than selling a few at high prices.
This "take it or leave it - we command our prices" policy makes us (in India) to think
about aleternative CAD software. (Of course there are other lower priced alternatives like
Vectorworks, etc.) The trouble is, it has to be a sort of a clone to AutoCAD. Otherwise it
becomes impractical to get used to totally new software and it becomes literally impossible
to train each new staff with a totally different CAD software. Of course there are a number
of clones available which are quite affordable - but sadly none are as stable as AutoCAD -
even for 2D drafting one has to take quite some effort with these clones to finish a
project successfully. No AutoCAD clone can come even near to even AutoCAD LT. So the lowest
priced CAD here has to be inevitably AutoCAD LT.
I sort of overheard that in China, Autodesk is selling its products at a very, very, low
price. So why not in India also?
It is no secret that India has one of the highest unauthorized users of Autodesk products -
it is said.
So why is not Autodesk encouraging small users (SOHO) like me who are bent in using
Licensed Softwares by giving us their product at affordable prices which should be in
context with Indian affordability.
For instance, 3ds Max is about 3500 USD . A professional visualizer in U.S. charges about
3000 USD to 7000 USD per project. So he is able plough back the investment in almost one
Here in India, this price means about Rupees 200000 (two hundred thousand rupees). A
professional visualizer here charges about Rupees 6000 per project. So it takes about 33
projects for him get back the cost of software itself.
So in what way even the special pricing for some Autodesk products really help us Indians
here? It is still unaffordable.
Will Autodesk really care for small people in India? If not is there an alternative? (It
seems only huge Multi National companies here can afford this - or very huge AEC firms can
afford this).
During a recent Autodesk Survey in which I participated, it is evident that Autodesk is on
its way not to sell licenses perpetually and instead start renting the software. Actually,
in India, this will have a chain reaction of expenses - like upgrading the OS every
frequently and also replacing computers frequently (because one will be forced to use the
latest version - which is not so in India. I still use AutoCAD LT 2009 4 copies plus one
copy LT 2013 Plus one BDS Premium 2013. I gave up upgrading 4 copies of LT 2009 because I
could not afford it)
So with these kind of situation, I wonder what would be the status of Indian Autodesk
Again, even the existing situation has lead to this here. Even though Autodesk products
are very expensive and affordable only by the MNCs and the like or Giant AEC companies here
who reap in dollars, however, usage of the products by most of the others is not uncommon -
it is said they simply use unauthorized software. Now here comes the bitter part of it in
that for such of those small people who do pay for the licensed software, they stand to
lose lot of money because his /her competitor uses unauthorized software and the amount not
spent is a huge profit (because of the very huge price of the product - and of course
multiple copies have to be had to run an office - so savings from expensive software
amounts to extra earnings). So these people could quote lower fees than us legitimate
users. And we really stand to lose. The clients themselves are not bothered whether
somebody is using legitimate software or not. If they could get the services at a lower
price they only go for it. They wouldn't pay higher just because somebody is paying for the
Whatever I have said here is not a sudden outbreak from something just happened. This has
come out from years of my observations here in India. Some people seem to even think and
claim that it is their birth right to use unauthorized software.
I do have some friends of mine who exactly have the same mindset and attitude that I have.
Always use legitimate software. But since recently we are pushed to a conclusion that we,
the legitimate users would wither away to dust and the illegitimate users would be shining,
thriving and would have high standards of life (instead of buying software, they simply buy
more hardware and increase staff and increase their turnover - and whereas we legitimate
people get forced to stick to older hardware and spend the money on software upgrading, and
then not have enough money to add computers & staff with additional licenses for software.
Unless Autodesk takes a lenient view on their prices in India, we, the legitimate users are
going to disappear from their respective fields!!
If this is not the forum to discuss this, then let the moderators please transfer this to
an appropriate sub-forum. My humble request is, make this known to others and to Autodesk.
With best regards
Ditto for all of us that are sole proprietors that rely on Autodesk products to make a living. You said it well.
I have been waiting for someone from Autodesk to reply me on this post. It is obvious that this forum is moderated by Autodesk personnel and they would just not have missed this. Remaining silent, it means they are sticking to the policy of "take it or leave it - this is our price".
If this is going to be their attitude, then here in India, Autodesk would have popularity with only two categories:
1) Multi National Companies (offices in India run by companies outside India - say, U.S. etc. and huge Indian Corporates who make money in U.S.Dollars and a few huge AEC firms.
2) All those who use unauthorised softwares.
I think it is really high time here in India to find out some sort of solution to an alternative to Autodesk. In fact, Indian Institute of Architects, Tamilnadu Chapter - the state where I am - did take it up very seriouslyon this matter some time back and really worked on this sometime and somehow the vigour has gone now. May be I shoud take the initiative to talk to the Chairman or some enthusiastic office bearer in IIA now and re-kindle the search for an alternative. I cannot be a lone fighter and a lone fellow to do a massive research for an alternative.
With best regards
My guess is with a worldwide 70% of List cost charges, they can overlook some regional software infractions: reality though, unless they are trying to gain market share in a region, we are all getting stung by the price hike. ALL of us: while I feel your pain, I don't think you should deserve a discount over the rest of us.
Autodesk is a business, not a charity or an NGO with private funding: they respond to major sales drops, not posts on newsgroups. Try that approach. But keep in mind that the middle-class is vanishing everywhere and doing business has never been cheap or easy or gauranteed and "tools" costs has always been the hardest part of a business to own.
I do understand that Autodesk is not a charity business. I am not blaming them about their prices. I am only making a plea. Why India deserves a lower price?
Please see my quote:
"For instance, 3ds Max is about 3500 USD . A professional visualizer in U.S. charges about
3000 USD to 7000 USD per project. So he is able plough back the investment in almost one
Here in India, this price means about Rupees 200000 (two hundred thousand rupees). A
professional visualizer here charges about Rupees 6000 per project. So it takes about 33
projects for him get back the cost of software itself.
So in what way even the special pricing for some Autodesk products really help us Indians
here? It is still unaffordable."
This is why I think India should get a lower price - in context with Indian economy and cost of living.
With best regards
There are many associated local factors which are not readily thought of, such as increases in costs of labor, engery, or even government taxes/fees intented to promote internal businesses over external sources.
Historically, lower wages have been used to create lower project costs to entice work from other areas. As operating costs increase, those project costs will have to increase as well to cover that increase. Can't keep costs unnaturally low, isolated from all factors, without creating some economic problems.

Annocement about final project:
- In your shared folder, it contains two set of images. You can tell by checking your postfix (L or M) to know which dataset you will work on. Group 1 and 3 will work on the same dataset, Group 2 and 4 will work on another dataset. I have included both the original images and the ground-truth annotations. Please keep in mind that, your final testing data might not look quite similar to your training data. Therefore be careful do not over-fit your models if you choose learning based method.
- I recommend you start to think about how to get the results closest to the ground truth annotations. Please let me know if you have any questions. At least you should have one/two group meetings at a weekly basis to discuss how your group decides to proceed.
- Any questions, don't hesitate to contact me, the earlier, the better!
Instructor expectations
1. I expect you to attend every class session. The components are highly interrelated; missing a class will detract from the learning potential of subsequent sessions.
2. I expect you to be in the classroom and prepared to begin work at the scheduled starting time for each session.
3. I expect you to actively participate in the discussions. This is not the type of class where you can "sit back and listen."
4. I expect you to submit papers using proper English grammar, syntax, and spelling. You are encouraged to use spell check and grammar check prior to submitting your written work. The Writing Laboratory is available to anyone who may need assistance. Grammar, syntax, and spelling will account for 10% of the grade for written work.
5. I expect (and encourage) you to provide honest and timely feedback regarding the content and process of this course throughout the semester.
6. I expect you during the semester to interactively engage via Blackboard with the other students and the instructor.
7. I expect you to share in the responsibility for making this course an enjoyable and beneficial learning experience.
8. This is a graduate-level course that requires you to study at least 3 hours a week for one credit course like this one. You may need less time, but be prepared for the fact that some weeks may be busier than others.
9. I expect you to log into BB course homepage to access course announcement, course information, assignment submission, and communication with your fellow classmates.
Academic honesty

What is the difference between a cake board and a drum board? I don't use the cardboard cake boards, I use the harder and thicker ones that are covered in foul (made of wood maybe?).
I definitely get ridges in the bc were I stop and start with the scraper, but around the edges of the cake board the foil is folded under so the edges of the board aren't smooth. This creates ridges too.
I think you are using a drum board then. Cake boards are just the flimsy cardboards. The harder and thicker ones covered in foil are cake drums. People use a cardboard under the cake, and then a cake drum to sit it on (that you can cover and decorate with fondant).
I think your "ridges" are because you start and stop with the scraper. What you can see people doing is to hold your scraper at a starting point, put your left hand right there on the wheel and in one single motion, without stopping, turn the wheel and get to the beginning point.

Nov. 17 (Bloomberg) -- Singapore's Straits Times Index fell 0.7 percent to 2,788.10 as of 1:15 p.m. local time. Six shares fell for each that rose in the index of 30 companies.
The following shares were among the most active in the market. Stock symbols are in parentheses after the company names.
Commodity suppliers: Noble Group Ltd. (NOBL SP) and Olam International Ltd. (OLAM SP) declined after UOB-Kay Hian Holdings Ltd. lowered its rating on the industry to "market- weight" from "overweight," citing the risk of falling prices for commodities such as soybeans and sugar canes.
Noble, a Hong Kong-based commodity supplier, fell 1.3 percent to S$1.185. Olam, an agricultural commodities supplier, dropped 2.1 percent to S$2.34.
Exporters: Singapore's exports fell the most in more than two years in October as a slowing global economy curbed demand for electronics products.
Creative Technology Ltd. (CREAF SP), the maker of digital music players that competes with Apple Inc.'s iPods, fell 1.5 percent to S$2.63. Hi-P International Ltd. (HIP SP), an electronics manufacturer whose clients include BlackBerry-maker Research in Motion Ltd., lost 0.7 percent to 68 Singapore cents.
Adampak Ltd. (AMPK SP), a manufacturer of packaging materials, dropped 8.3 percent to 22 Singapore cents after reporting third-quarter net income declined 28 percent.
Sheng Siong Group Ltd. (SSG SP), a grocery-chain operator, added 1.2 percent to 42 Singapore cents. The company agreed to sell an industrial property it previously used as its headquarters for S$15 million.
Tiger Airways Holdings Ltd. (TGR SP), the budget carrier partly owned by Singapore Airlines Ltd. (SIA SP), fell 1.4 percent to 69 Singapore cents. UBS AG reiterated its "sell" rating and cut its share-price forecast by 17 percent to 58 Singapore cents, saying it expects more losses from Australia.

I came across an interesting little modification that I thought I would share. Perhaps some might find this useful.
I discovered a way to color code the comments made by Guest users in incidents.
You create an incident rule it would look something like this:
When actually entering the properties for the comment color, it will look like this:
Of course you can use whatever color you choose.
When the incident posts to the Helpdesk, the result of the comment looks like this:
This could be useful where the Guest makes additional comments into the incident and they would stand out from the worker comments.
Just something I thought was rather neat.

Whether you're posing for your own blog or the street style paparazzi, there's an art to working the best angle. And these show attendees are well-aware. Adorably pigeon-toed or confidently strutting toward the lens each says something about who you are — but also does totally different things to your body.
What's your signature pose — what's the message and just how does it make you look? Trust when we say the street style darlings [1], fashion bloggers, and, of course, seasoned models [2], have that all figured out. And now, in light of fashion week, we're helping you do the same. Scroll through to see the 11 most popular street style poses, and let's get to the bottom of what they mean. That way, aside from planning this week's eccentric, eye-catching outfits, you're totally ready for your photo op.
Source: Greg Kessler [3]
The I'm-Having-Too-Much-Fun-to-Care
Giovanna Battaglia has mastered this stance — it says "I'm SO fashion, and I don't even know it!" (but of course you do!). The benefit of throwing your head up in a broad smile or chuckle, too, will be evident on camera as it helps create a longer neckline and a truly natural smile. Note: you'll need a really fabulous outfit to make this look authentic.
The Look Down
The look says, "I'm chic, and I'm not even trying." You're not asking for attention, you're just getting it. In this case, let your clothes do the talking — nothing too wild or crazy — just keep it fresh, modern, and cool to make it believable. This is especially flattering from the side as you walk, creating the illusion of a longer leg line.
The Casual Lean
You live and breathe fashion with a capital "F," so when it comes to posing you don't need to put on any pretenses, you're good to go. It doesn't hurt, either, that the bent-leg stance helps to create space between the thighs (aka the coveted thigh gap).
Source: Tim Regas
The Live-Action Shot
You're chic and sophisticated, and while you might not have time to stop, you'll certainly get your picture taken. You're the type who doesn't have to advertise your fashion sense, it's naturally apparent. What's more, the look away is perfect for showcasing a great blowout when your hair catches the breeze behind you.
The Sideways Stare
A particularly slimming pose, this stance creates a lean silhouette from the side, not to mention that everyone gets a shot of your killer heels. Flash a smile for a flirtier feel, while a stare says "Yeah, I'm chic, what of it?"
The Blogger Buddies
When you buddy up, you're two times as stylish. Plus, with a fashionable friend at your side you're likely to feel more comfortable and more confident, which means the photo will look less staged and way more natural, from your body language to your smile. Bonus points: you're guaranteed to attract more photogs, especially when you opt for coordinating outfits — or at least coordinating shades.
The Strong Arm
Like red carpet queens and celebrity style darlings, you know how to work a camera lens. Drawing your hand to your waist shows confidence and helps showcase the slimmest part of your body – you're ready for your close-up.
The Look Back
What better way to show off the back of a great outfit — or your behind? Give them one last look over the shoulder on your way out. It's like saying, "I've really got to go, but I'm going to look fabulous when I leave."
Source: Tim Regas
The Crisscross
This pose slims the whole body, making you look as narrow as humanly possible while looking confidently into the lens. Why do you think it's the go-to pose for bloggers everywhere?
The Pigeon-Toe
This stance isn't just sweet and approachable, it's smart. By standing with your hips apart and toes together, you create the illusion of the thigh gap, making your legs look long and lean.
The Peacock
We'll just come right out and say it — this is for the daring, Gone-With-the-Wind-fabulous fashionistas who are ready to attract a whole lot of attention. And, by keeping your arms out and away from the body, you'll never have to worry about pressing your arm against your side and making it look larger than it is. Come equipped with clothing that moves, and be prepared to twirl and twirl and twirl . . . till everyone gets their shot.
