Nutella cake, frosted with Nutella. That's all you need to know.
Nutella Cake
Serves 6 to 8
Recipe by Lindsay Hunt
Beat 1½ cups Nutella with 4 large eggs in a large bowl until well combined and slightly increased in volume, about 2 minutes. Fold in the ½ cup all-purpose flour until combined. Scrape into a greased and parchment-lined 8-inch pan and bake at 350º F until the center is just set, 35 to 40 minutes. Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then cool on a wire rack until room temperature. Frost with ½ cup Nutella, and serve.

The government has split the process up into five phases.

There are two ways Canada will bring in refugees: The government's own program and private sponsors. The government says it's already processing thousands of applications for both.
Canada will pick government-assisted refugees through the UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR) and the Turkish government. The government says it will choose the most vulnerable people: Families, women at risk, LGBT people, and single adult men if they're LGBT or accompanying their family.
Private groups can pick whoever they like.
In all cases, refugees have to be Syrian nationals or stateless people living outside Syria. They also have to be registered as refugees with Turkey or the UNHCR.
Once the refugees are picked by government and private groups, they will go to a UNHCR office for an identity check and iris scan. In some cases, the UNHCR will be using text messages to contact refugees who've been chosen.
Cost of phase 1: $17-21 million
Phase 2: Screening and interviews.

This part will happen overseas. About 500 Canadian government officials from various departments are on the ground.
Refugees will have interviews with visa officers, full medical exams, and security screening. The security screening will include getting the refugees' biographical information and biometrics, such as fingerprints and photos. That information will then be checked against immigration and police databases.
Once through this process, refugees will get permanent resident visas and flight plans will be made.
Cost of phase 2: $36-46 million

Refugees will mostly come to Canada on private chartered planes. The International Organization for Migration does a lot of the logistical planning. Military aircraft could also be used if needed.
Refugees will land in Montreal and Toronto. Canadian border agents will check the identities of the refugees before boarding and after landing. Refugees will also get a visual health check before boarding.
Cost of phase 3: $94-121 million

When they get to Canada, refugees will get another ID and visual health check, then go through the usual processing with border agents.
Privately sponsored refugees will then go to wherever their sponsor is located. Government-assisted refugees will go to one of dozens of communities identified as having the proper supports to help the refugees get settled. As a backup, refugees who don't yet have accommodations set up can stay at military bases.
Cost of phase 4: $325-377 million

Government-assisted refugees will either get money from the federal government or the Quebec provincial government (if they end up there) for clothing, household items, food, and more. The amount will be similar to social assistance, the government said, and will last for either one year or until the refugees can support themselves.
Canada already has support services and networks set up to resettle refugees, but the government looking at beefing up them up. The supports include everything from language services and counseling to help getting a bank account and housing set up.
Privately sponsored refugees can also access a lot of those services.
Cost of phase 5: $31-36 million
Total cost: $564-678 million.

The singing grid thingy is everywhere on Instagram and Twitter.
Have you seen those multilayered, almost Brady Bunch–looking, videos of people singing and accompanying themselves? That's from an app called Acapella, and its parent company just announced a $1 million round of seed funding today. And if you haven't seen one yet, get ready for a songbook.
Launched just six weeks ago, the app has been an instant hit with young people. It allows you to take several videos of yourself, stacking the first videos over the next so you can sing over your own backing vocals, until you become an a cappella troupe of one.
It's simple to use, but BYO singing skills (I made one that works in the sense of being several voices playing simultaneously, but not in the sense of being identifiable to any living human as "music"). I asked Ethan Clare, who had posted a really good video of himself singing "Wanna Be a Baller" by Lil' Troy, why he likes the app. "Because it's fun, even if you suck!" he told me. (Um. He has not heard my sickly caterwauling in horrifying four-part disharmony.)
The Acapella app taps into a zeitgeist where, thanks to the unlikely hit of the Pitch Perfect movies and a reality singing competition show Sing It On, a cappella singing is no longer just thought of as something for collegiate boys in ill-fitting matching blazers or a cringeworthy hobby of Republican senators.
It also steams along on railway tracks that were only recently laid: Twitter and Instagram are the main ways people are getting exposed to the app, and Twitter only added native video this past January. And that's key to the app's strategy.
Acapella comes from a company called Mixcord, which has made several other popular apps that serve as sort of remora fish to popular social networks like Instagram and Twitter. One of its first popular apps was a collage maker designed for Instagram (eventually, Instagram rolled out collages as a feature of its own). So the app, PicPlayPost, stayed one step ahead by allowing people to include video in collages. That, in turn, led to Acapella.

Potvin, who lives in Gatineau, Quebec, told BuzzFeed Canada she worried about professional consequences at the time and decided to keep quiet about her taste in art.
"They told me it would not be a good professional move to tell people I was the one who bought the painting."
She said she's comfortable revealing herself as the buyer now because she's retired from her job with the federal government. She's putting the painting up for sale to help pay for renovations on a new home.
She has already gotten several serious offers from across the country.
