Kahk is usually prepared during Eid Al-Fitr, Eid Al-Adha, and Christmas.<br />I know some people hate dates, but not me, I love them and even more inside any cookie :)</div><br /><br /><br /><div><br />Ingredients<br />2 cups semolina flour<br />1 1/2 cups shortening<br />1 cup boiling water<br />3/4 cup white sugar<br />2 cups ground walnuts<br />1 teaspoon rose water<br />1/4 cup confectioners' sugar for dusting (optional)<br /><br />Preparation<br />Place the semolina flour into a medium bowl, and cut in shortening using a pastry blender or a fork. Pour in boiling water, and mix to form a solid dough. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface, and knead for a minute or two to be sure the dough is well blended. Cover dough and let stand for at least one hour, or as long as overnight.<br />In a medium bowl, mix together the sugar, ground nuts, and rose water so that the mixture is uniform. Set aside.<br /><br />Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease cookie sheets, or line with parchment paper. Knead dough again briefly, and form into walnut sized balls. Make a hole in the center using your finger. Fill the hole with the nut mixture, and seal the dough up over it.<br /><br /><br />Gently form into balls or crescents, or make designs into the dough using a fork. Place cookies at least 1 inch apart onto the prepared cookie sheets.<br /><br />Bake for 10 to 12 minutes in the preheated oven, or until lightly browned. Dust with confectioners sugar while still warm if desired.<br /><br />Tips:<br /><br /><br />Almonds or unsalted pistachios may be used for filling also. If rose water is not available in your area, you can use 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon for flavoring.<br /><br />There are many variations for shaping these cookies including rectangles rolled into mini jelly rolls, or shape 3 inch rounds from balls, place filling in the center, and fold the sides over to cover, and seal. </div>

The two faces of Facebook

<div>By Cath Elliott — Guardian News & Media Ltd<br /><br />It doesn't matter how hard I study Facebook's terms and conditions, I still can't find the bit where it says: "Like Humpty Dumpty, Facebook is at complete liberty to interpret the words used in this document in any way it sees fit." And yet that's obviously what Facebook executives have been doing: making words mean what they want them to mean, or else they would have <span style="font-size:180%;">removed the</span> <span style="font-size:180%;">pages that promote</span> rape and other forms of <span style="font-size:180%;">violence against women</span> months ago.<br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgwTLiowuItSlGIQKIN8sQlYt3KAk3GeD1BnOfrqAPmF-2fPrvLTy2qFrX7gflUTPJ3NmmuLFdoMAUCaxC0Wjq4uL8c1H5qWRL07LdD0uR2EJnSWrzrbsq2Ftem38ev-MVH5tPldhkVPyTK/s1600/facebook+2.JPG"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5668594606706026946" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgwTLiowuItSlGIQKIN8sQlYt3KAk3GeD1BnOfrqAPmF-2fPrvLTy2qFrX7gflUTPJ3NmmuLFdoMAUCaxC0Wjq4uL8c1H5qWRL07LdD0uR2EJnSWrzrbsq2Ftem38ev-MVH5tPldhkVPyTK/s400/facebook+2.JPG" style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 303px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 199px; CURSOR: hand" /></a><br /><br />Post it<br /><br />The clause in <span style="font-size:180%;">Facebook's statement of rights and responsibilities that's supposed to protect groups against violence and hate speech instructs the user: "You will not post content that: is hateful, threatening, or pornographic; incites violence; or contains nudity or graphic or gratuitous violence." However, Facebook has now defended the numerous pages that clearly violate these terms by claiming: "Groups that express an opinion on a state, institution, or set of beliefs — even if that opinion is outrageous or offensive to some — do not by themselves violate our policies." Which is strange, because if a page entitled "Roses are red, violets are blue, I've got a knife, get in the van" isn't hateful, threatening or violent, I don't for the life of me know what is.<br /><br /></span><span style="color:#009900;"><em>It was back in August that feminists first began to notice the proliferation of pro-rape pages on the popular social networking site. Two months later, more than 176,000 people have signed a US-based petition calling on Facebook to take them down, and nearly 4,000 people have signed a UK-based petition calling for the same. The Facebook pages, such as the one cited above and others that include "You know she's playing hard to get when your [sic] chasing her down an alleyway" still remain.<br /></em></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicYZNfyGT0eeaeJfe4RkKISjrC-tZ3ZlykfUytC4fymefvhiLaSMgEq9SGPXNSsejw3LSEa7bPuqbewx8oRuD5uKCVYE-cB0baIZpftnMWE-GDXZ2645zS4fhIg1Ltw8d1dxD9erZUPyp3/s1600/facebook.jpg"><span style="color:#009900;"><em><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5668594604873930850" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicYZNfyGT0eeaeJfe4RkKISjrC-tZ3ZlykfUytC4fymefvhiLaSMgEq9SGPXNSsejw3LSEa7bPuqbewx8oRuD5uKCVYE-cB0baIZpftnMWE-GDXZ2645zS4fhIg1Ltw8d1dxD9erZUPyp3/s400/facebook.jpg" style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 312px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 246px; CURSOR: hand" /></em></span></a><br /><br />Facebook's initial response to the public outcry was to suggest that promoting violence against women was equivalent to telling a rude joke down the pub: "It is very important to point out that what one person finds offensive another can find entertaining" went the bizarre rape apologia. "Just as telling a rude joke won't get you thrown out of your local pub, it won't get you thrown off Facebook."<br /><br />Bitter truth<br /><br />And in some ways they're right: telling a rude joke probably wouldn't get you thrown out of your local pub. I would suggest, however, that propping up your local bar while inciting others to rape your mate's girlfriend "to see if she can put up a fight" would not only get you thrown out, it would get you arrested as well. Still, at least you could log on once you got home and post your offensive comments on Facebook instead — <span style="font-size:180%;color:#ff0000;">they won't do anything about it</span>.<br /><br />What Facebook and others who defend this pernicious hate speech don't seem to get is that rapists don't rape because they're somehow evil or perverted or in any way particularly different from than the average man in the street: rapists rape because they can. Rapists rape because they know the odds are stacked in their favour, because they know the chances are they'll get away with it.<br /><br /><span style="font-size:180%;">And part of the reason rapists get away with it, time after time after time, is because the UK is a society that all but condones rape. Because it is a society where it's not taken seriously, and where posting heinous comments online that promote sexual violence are not treated as hate speech or as content that threatens women's safety, but are instead treated as a joke and given a free pass.<br /><br /></span>By refusing to take these pages down, and by resorting to such a ridiculous and quite frankly offensive "rude joke" analogy to justify their decision, Facebook executives have made absolutely clear where they stand on the issue of gender-hate crime. It's fine to post hateful or threatening content on their site, just as it's fine to post content that incites violence. Well, as long as it's primarily aimed at women, that is. </div></div>
