2.1.1 The 3-phase Motor
The normal induction motor operates only on a 3-phase supply. It consists of a stator wound with a 3-phase winding in slots on the inside of the yoke. The windings are distributed around the stator so that in a so-called '2-pole' motor their axes are spaced 120° apart.
Each winding end is brought out to a terminal. The other ends are usually star-connected within the machine. In some instances the machine may be delta-connected, in which case all six ends may be brought out to six or three terminals.
If a 3-phase supply is connected to the three stator terminals, such an arrangement gives rise to a rotating magnetic field. This completes one revolution in one cycle of supply; that is to say, with a 60Hz system frequency the field rotates at 60 rev/s, and with a 50Hz supply at 50 rev/s. This is called the 'synchronous speed'. (See 'Fundamentals of Electricity 2', Chapter 3.)
MAGNETIC FIELD, EMFs AND CURRENTS IN ROTOR
Inside the stator is a rotor which is free to rotate and has no electrical connections to it - that is to say, no brushgear. The rotor could be of solid iron, but it is more usually laminated and fitted with uninsulated copper or aluminium bars in slots round its outer edge, the bars being short-circuited at both ends by brazed metal rings, as shown in Figure 2.1.
The bars and rings together form a cage-like assembly, and this form of motor, by far the most numerous, is called 'squirrel cage'. There are variations on this arrangement, but they are not found offshore, and not often onshore.
Figure 2.1 shows only the rotor. The stator and its windings already described in the earlier manual are not shown, but the rotating field which the stator produces is indicated in blue. This is the only manifestation of the stator that the rotor 'sees'.
While the rotor is at rest and therefore stationary, the rotating field from the stator passes through all the rotor conductors in turn, generating emfs in them by Faraday's Law of Induction. Because all the rotor bars are short-circuited, these emfs cause currents to flow through the bars and end-rings as indicated in red in the figure. The direction of the currents will change as the passing field changes from N to S and back again.
The rotor bar currents react with the magnetic field surrounding them to produce a sideways mechanical force on each bar, as explained in Chapter 6 of the manual 'Fundamentals of Electricity 1'. By Fleming's Left-hand Rule these forces act on all bars in the same direction and produce a combined torque on the rotor in the direction of the field rotation. This causes the rotor to accelerate from rest. In more simple terms the rotor can be considered as being 'dragged around' by the rotating field.
As the rotor accelerates, the relative speed of the field passing it becomes less, the frequency and amount of the emfs and the rotor currents get less, and the mechanical force on the conductors and the torque on the rotor, after increasing for a time, also become less. Finally the rotor settles down to a speed slightly less than that of the field (the synchronous speed), when the emfs are at very low frequency and are just sufficient to maintain the rotor current and torque against the load. This settled speed is typically 1 to 2% below synchronous, and the difference is called the 'slip'. For example, a 2-pole, 60Hz motor would have a synchronous speed of 3 600 rev/mm; the motor nameplate may show the motor's rated speed as 3 540 rev/mm, which would indicate a slip of 1.67% at full-load. At less than full-load the slip is reduced and the speed approaches nearer to synchronous. Conversely, as mechanical load is applied, the slip increases, and the rotor's induced emf and hence its current rises, which gives an increase in driving torque to meet the load.
Thus induction motors have nearly, but not quite, a fixed speed just below synchronous, and it cannot be controlled (as in a d.c. motor) except by complicated and expensive equipment which is not installed in offshore or onshore installations. For this reason it is often called an 'asynchronous motor'.
As the rotor gathers speed, it generates increasing back-emf in the stator, causing the stator current to fall. At full speed, as load is applied, the slip and the rotor currents increase, causing increasing stator currents (and therefore motor 'load') by transformer action.
When the creation of rotating fields was discussed in the earlier manual it was explained that, with one stator winding per phase, the field made one revolution per cycle. If, however, there were two parallel windings per phase, making a total of six windings disposed at 60° (instead of 120°) intervals, the field would make only half a revolution per cycle. A machine so wound is called a '4-pole' motor; at 60Hz its field rotation would be only at 1 800 rev/mm, and this therefore would be its synchronous speed.
As already explained, the full-load speed is just below synchronous, differing from it by the small slip, so that the nameplate rated speed of 4-pole motors at 60Hz will be around 1 750 rev/mm. These in fact are far more numerous than the faster 2-pole motors. Similarly
6-pole motors (synchronous speed at 60Hz 1 200 rev/mm) will have rated speeds of about 1 160 rev/mm. With 50Hz supply systems the rated speeds for 2-, 4- and 6-pole motors will be about 2 950, 1 475 and 980 rev/mm respectively.
6-pole motors (synchronous speed at 60Hz 1 200 rev/mm) will have rated speeds of about 1 160 rev/mm. With 50Hz supply systems the rated speeds for 2-, 4- and 6-pole motors will be about 2 950, 1 475 and 980 rev/mm respectively.
It should be particularly noted that the induction motor is not strictly a constant-speed motor, as its speed varies over a small range of up to about 2% between no-load and full-load. Neither is it a variable-speed motor in the sense that it can be used for variable-speed drives, as can be done with d.c. motors. For most practical purposes however, such as for driving pumps, compressors and similar plant, it can be regarded as a constant-speed machine. Only where exact constant speed is needed would it be necessary to go to a synchronous motor.
2.1.2 The Single Phase Motor
The 3-phase motor described above depends on the creation of a rotating magnetic field from static windings in a 3-phase stator. However, it is possible to create a rotating field from a single-phase supply provided that it is split into two parts whose space-displacement and time-displacement are equal - in this case 90° instead of the 3-phase 120°. Such a motor is called a 'split-phase' motor. The principle is described in the manual 'Fundamentals of Electricity 2', Chapter 3.
Figure 2.2 shows how the split is achieved. It has four pole windings spaced at equal 90° intervals round the stator. Opposite pairs of poles have opposite polarities, so that, when one is producing an N field, the other is producing an 5, and vice versa.
The other pair of windings, 90° displaced, are fed through a capacitor of sufficient size to cause the current through the second pair of windings to lead by nearly 90° in time on that in the other pair.
Figure 2.3 shows the polarities at 90° (quarter-cycle) time intervals. At time t = 360° (on the extreme right) the 12 o'clock pole is N maximum and the 6 o'clock S maximum. Both the 3 o'clock and 9 o'clock poles are zero because their currents, leading 90° on those of the other two, are passing through zero at that instant.
One-quarter of a cycle (90°) earlier, moving from right to left, at t = 270°, the 9 o'clock pole, whose current leads 90° on that of the 12 o'clock, was at maximum N, and the 3 o'clock at maximum S. The poles at 12 and 6 o'clock were zero because their currents were passing through zero at that instant.
Similarly one-quarter of a cycle still earlier (t = 180°) 6 o'clock was N and 12 o'clock was S, with 3 and 9 o'clock both zero. And at t = 90°, 3 o'clock was N and 9 o'clock S, with 12 and 6 o'clock both zero. And so back to t = 0°, which is the same as t = 360°.
It can be seen from Figure 2.3, moving now from left to right - that is, from t = 0° to t = 360° - that the N-pole progresses steadily from 12 o'clock at t = 0°, through 3 o'clock, 6 o'clock and 9 o'clock back to 12 o'clock. The S-pole progresses in the same direction but 180° behind.
Therefore a clockwise rotating field, completing one revolution in one cycle of time, has been produced from a single-phase supply. It should be added that the above explanation has been idealised. The current in the 3 and 9 o'clock poles will not lead the full 90° on that in the other poles because of resistance and inductance, but the split is quite sufficient to produce an adequate rotating field. This arrangement is not so efficient as a proper 3-phase motor, but it meets the requirements for smaller motors.
Once the rotating field has been obtained in this manner from a single-phase supply, the squirrel-cage rotor will run up to speed and follow it, with the usual slip, exactly as for a 3-phase motor.
When a split-phase single-phase motor has been run up to speed, it will continue to run and to deliver power even if the capacitor winding is disconnected. Therefore all but the smallest of such motors have their 3 o'clock and 9 o'clock windings, and the capacitor itself, short-rated. Once the motor has run up, a centrifugal switch opens the capacitor circuit. When the motor stops it reconnects it. In such a motor the 3 and 9 o'clock windings are referred to as the 'starting winding' and the other as the 'running winding'. On very small motors the centrifugal switch may be omitted and both windings left in circuit.
The split-phase motor is widely used for domestic equipment, where only single-phase supplies are usually available. Like the 3-phase equivalent, it is direct-on-line started and exhibits similar slip, torque and current characteristics. It is sometimes called a 'capacitor motor'; the capacitor is usually mounted on the outside of the motor case.
Other methods are sometimes used to achieve the phase difference between the starting and running windings, but the capacitor method is by far the most common.
The induction motors so far described use a rotor of the squirrel-cage type, in which the conductors are uninsulated and where the rotor-bar currents, induced by the field passing at slip speed, are limited only by the resistance of the bars themselves and of the end rings and by the reactance of the rotor. There is no external control of these currents. It will be shown later that, when a motor is started by switching it direct onto line, the initial starting currents are very high, and there is no means of controlling them at the motor.
Although these high starting currents are normally allowed for in the design of the system, it is sometimes necessary to reduce them. One way of achieving this is by using a wound rotor. Such a machine has, instead of a squirrel-cage rotor, one that is wound like a normal machine with insulated conductors in slots. Three separate phase windings are provided on the rotor, and they are brought out to three sliprings, as shown in Figure 2.4.
Under normal running conditions the three sliprings are short-circuited by an external switch or contactor, but during starting they are connected to a set of variable resistances. They introduce into the rotor circuit extra resistance which limits the rotor current and hence the current drawn by the stator. These 'starting resistances' are progressively reduced as the motor gathers speed (much like the old d.c. starters) until at full speed they are shorted out altogether, and the machine behaves as a squirrel-cage motor with short-circuited rotor bars.
It should be noted that the resistances are purely for starting and are therefore only short-rated. They are not for speed control, since speed is virtually constant and is determined by the system frequency. Inserting the rotor resistances has only a slight effect on the slip and so very little effect on the speed.
Starting resistances for wound-rotor machines may be of any variable-adjustment type, or they may be fixed with tappings selected in turn by contactors where starting control is automatic. In some cases a liquid resistor is used where three plates are gradually lowered into a tank containing an electrolyte; this gives a continuously variable control.
Wound-rotor motors and their control gear are far more expensive than the simple squirrel-cage motor. None are installed in any offshore and few, if any, in onshore installations.

Have you tried zoodles yet? Zoodles are simply noodles made from zucchini, and if you haven't made them before, I highly recommend them! Even those who don't like zucchini typically love zoodles, as they really take on the flavor of whatever sauce or dish you serve them with. Zoodles can be substituted in any traditional pasta dish, making it super easy to get an extra serving of veggies in! Plus, they're absolutely delicious!
I often get questions about how to prepare zoodles, store them, and how to make it so that they won't create a ton of water when mixed with a sauce. In this post I'll go over all things zoodles, and you'll see just how easy it is to create "noodles" using a healthy vegetable! Whether you want to peel the zucchini or not before you make them into zoodles is entirely up to you, I personally prefer to leave it with the skin on.
Happy zoodling!
How To Prepare Zoodles
Spiralizer – I've been using my Paderno World Cuisine Spiralizer for nearly 3 years now, and I absolutely love it! The one I have costs around $25 and is well worth it, as I haven't had a single issue with it. It comes with 3 different blade attachments to make different zoodle shapes, from thin or thick spaghetti "noodles," to wide fettuccine-type noodles. This creates very long zoodles, which can easily be cut so they're shorter, if you prefer.
My Verdict – The spiralizer is hands down my favorite way to make zoodles!
Julienne Peeler – A julienne peeler is a great option for saving space, as it's not much larger than a regular vegetable peeler. It also creates short zoodles, which are only as long as the zucchini.
My Verdict – Although a julienne peeler won't create long & curly noodles, it still gets the job done and is a great option if you don't have much kitchen storage space!
Hand Held Spiralizer – I haven't actually used a hand held spiralizer myself, but I have friends who use it regularly and like it.
My Verdict – The only downside I really see is that it won't fit some of the larger zucchini, but smaller ones would work.
Vegetable Peeler – A regular vegetable peeler will create thin, wide zoodles, which creates more of a fettuccine type "noodle."
My Verdict – A vegetable peeler works great in a pinch, and I've even used it to create the zucchini noodles for my Beef Stroganoff!
How To Store Zoodles
Refrigerator – Store your zoodles in the fridge in a covered container lined with paper towels. The zoodles will release moisture as they sit in the container in your fridge, and the paper towels will not only absorb the moisture, but it will make your zoodles last much longer as they won't become soggy. If you're storing them in the fridge for more than a day or two, you may want to switch out the paper towels as they become damp.
My Verdict – This is the best (and really only) way to store zoodles. They'll last about 4-5 days in the fridge.
Freezer – Unfortunately freezing zoodles just doesn't work. For this post I tried freezing my freshly made zoodles in a zip top bag. I took them out of the bag and set them on paper towels to defrost. They were left very mushy and sitting in a ton of water.
My Verdict – Freezing zoodles unfortunately doesn't work. Bummer!
How To Release Moisture
Make Ahead – This way of getting the moisture out of zoodles also happens to be the easiest. If you have the time, I highly recommend making your zoodles the day before you plan to serve them. I'll often make a batch of zoodles for random meals throughout the week, and making them ahead of time allows them to dry out so that they won't have much moisture left when you're ready to use them! To do this, follow my directions above for storing zoodles in the fridge.
My Verdict – Hands down my favorite way to get the moisture out of zoodles!
Salting – Place the zoodles on a baking sheet lined with paper towels. Sprinkle the zoodles with sea salt and allow them to sit for at least 20-30 minutes. I typically do this as I'm preparing the rest of my dinner. After the zoodles have sat out for at least 20-30 minutes, gently press the zoodles with paper towels or a clean dishrag to release any remaining moisture. This process will change the texture of the zoodles, making them more like spaghetti noodles. You can heat them up if you'd like, or serve them as is, pouring a sauce on top.
My Verdict – If you don't have time to make your zoodles ahead of time, this is another great way to get the moisture out! Your zoodles won't be salty, as the salt is released with the moisture. Be careful not to squeeze or press the zoodles too much, as they'll become mushy.
Baking – Another alternative is to bake your zoodles at a very low heat to help release the moisture. To do this, preheat your oven to 200 degrees. Line a baking sheet with paper towels and then place the zoodles on top of the paper towels. Sprinkle the zoodles with sea salt and then place them in the oven for 30 minutes. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and gently press them with paper towels or a clean dishrag to release any remaining moisture. This process will change the texture, making them more like spaghetti noodles. You can heat them up if you'd like, or serve them as is, pouring a sauce on top.
My Verdict – I didn't find that this baking method left the zoodles any different than just salting them, however, it is good for slightly warming them up.

We were able to accomplish a few things this weekend despite my mouth drama.
Eventually I'll have two kids who will smile and look at me when I take a picture. True story, or wishful thinking? :)
love the fall decor & L.O.V.E the girl's outfits! ooo I love owls!! :)
ps. on your blog header, that picture of one of the girls in the pumpkin tutu outfit, if you want to sell that--let me know! I've looked everywhere for one that will Lay and the smallest size I can find is 6 months!
If I can track it down, it's yours! Grace wore it that one night and that was it. (She was only about a week old in that picture, but I think it would still fit Layla.)

Miami Neuroscience Center Medical Director Says Education Is Key to Saving Lives
Miami Neuroscience Center Medical Director Says Education Is Key to Saving Lives
SOUTH MIAMI, FL--(Marketwired - Jun 24, 2014) - Brain tumors are the second most common cause of cancer death for men ages 20 to 39. It's the fifth most common cause of cancer for women in the same age group. Those troubling statistics should be a wake-up call according to Miami Neuroscience Center Medical Director Dr. Aizik Wolf.
Dr. Wolf is one of the world's leading authorities on radiosurgery and Gamma Knife®, a technologically innovative, non-invasive treatment for brain, head, and neck cancers. Dr. Wolf said doctors have to do their part to bridge the information gap, but public awareness is a partnership. Dr. Wolf explained, "Part of the problem is that too many people don't have the facts and still believe a diagnosis of brain cancer is an automatic death sentence. We have made great strides in developing treatments that are prolonging and saving lives."
A recent survey commissioned by the Miami Neuroscience Center in Florida, Georgia, and Alabama revealed that a surprising number of people are not educated about the symptoms of brain cancer or what treatment options are available when brain cancer is diagnosed. More than 54% of the general population and 63% of Hispanics cannot correctly identify the leading symptoms of brain tumors. A staggering 74% of general population respondents had no idea that there were non-invasive medical procedures available for removing or treating brain tumors.
The Miami Neuroscience Center is offering a free, downloadable tip sheet that is available in English and Spanish. The new pdf, Brain Cancer and You, should start a dialogue. Dr. Wolf explained, "An understanding of the symptoms is an important first step. You can't let fear guide you. Getting the information you need and acting quickly to understand your treatment options can save lives." The tip sheet is available at www.miamineurosciencecenter.com.
Internationally recognized for its groundbreaking work in radiosurgery, the Miami Neuroscience Center utilizes the Gamma Knife® Perfexion™, the only neurosurgical tool specifically designed for noninvasive brain, neck, and cervical spine radiosurgery. Led by Dr. Wolf, the Miami Neuroscience Center team has achieved national and international acclaim for its development of groundbreaking advancements in radiosurgery. The Miami Neuroscience Center is located at Larkin Community Hospital.

Strategic Advantages for Prospective Initiatives
Abundant High Value Wood Fibre Supply
Northern Ontario contains 690,000 square kilometers of Crown forests - an area of vast natural wealth and diversity. These forests are managed to internationally recognized standards of sustainability, and the quality of the wood fibre produced is excellent. CRIBE's vision is to move Ontario to the forefront of the commercialization of fuels, energy, fibres, and chemicals from the North's renewable forest materials, replacing similar products today derived from non-renewable fossil fuels.
Existing Forest Sector Infrastructure
For generations, the forest industry has been an important driving force of the provincial and local economies of Northern Ontario. This forest sector infrastructure is comprised of the logging industry and two major forest sector industries: the wood products manufacturing industries, and the paper and allied industries. All of these sectors are supported by experienced supply and service firms which have supported this heavily capitalized industry for generations.
Research Capacity
The location of CRIBE in Thunder Bay provides clear strategic advantages to build on the emerging research strengths at Lakehead University through the Biorefining Research Initiative (BRI). In March 2007, the Government of Ontario awarded $6 million to Lakehead University to create two endowed Ontario Research Chairs in support of cutting-edge research in biorefining - a field that develops ways of refining renewable forest biomass materials in a sustainable manner. This significant research funding established the foundation of BRI and enabled Lakehead University to recruit world-class researchers in the biorefining field to develop transformative technologies and products from forest biomass.
CRIBE also works collaboratively with the Sustainable Chemistry Alliance in Sarnia and the BioAuto Council in Guelph.
An important component of CRIBE's mandate is to seek out partnerships with entepreneurs, research organizations and industry with the specific purpose of turning existing research and ideas into a commercial reality. CRIBE has initiated a long term partnership with FPInnovations in establishing research capacity in northern Ontario.
FPInnovations is Canada's leading forest products research institute which performs research, technical services and tech transfer activities relating to wood harvesting, wood products, pulp and paper, nanotechnology and bio-energy and chemical production. As part of its Transformative Technology research program, sponsored by Natural Resources Canada, FPInnovations has developed a variety of new technologies and expertise relating to the forest bio-economy.
FPInnovations and CRIBE will provide financial contributions toward developing new scientific and technical capacity, pilot plant capabilities and pre-commercial demonstration projects in Northern Ontario.
AbitibiBowater has also partnered with CRIBE and FPInnovations in exploring new noval uses of forest biomass at its facilities in Thunder Bay. The parties have been working on several projects over the past year looking at alternative uses and bioproducts from the conventional pulpmill feedstock flows. These projects are ongoing.
Skilled Workforce
The long tradition of the forest industry in northern Ontario has provided a very skilled and knowledgeable mechanical trades workforce. Secondary mechanical, civil and support trades companies are common throughout the region having supported the forest and mining industry for generations.
Geographical Location
Thunder Bay is a key major forest products manufacturing centre in Ontario. The city has a population of over 109,000 residents and as the largest metropolitan centre in Northwestern Ontario the community is the region's commercial, medical, transportation and communications centre. As the geographical centre of North America, Thunder Bay is a vital gateway to markets in Canada, the US Midwest, throughout North America and internationally.
Multi-Modal Transportation Networks
Thunder Bay is linked to an agile transportation network connected through marine, rail, road and air access. At the head of the Great Lakes and St. Lawrence Seaway System, the Port of Thunder Bay provides a highly competitive routing option linked to CN/CP rail lines and the Trans-Canada Highway. Approximately 400 ships visit the port every year.

A Personal Experience of BodyTalk
Little did I know… BodyTalk would be the catalyst to my awakening.
Before BodyTalk
My Life before BodyTalk was pretty great until it wasn't. Well, I was blissfully unaware, and I was just going through life one adventure to the next. When I got married and moved to Arizona, my life fell apart. I left all my friends, my job, and "who I was" to move to what I thought at the time was the hottest place on earth… yes, after a few weeks I thought I was in "hell". It was the middle of summer and 118 degrees one day, my husband had a job and friends and clubs that he was a part of and I had nothing. I was basically starting over, had assumed many of the homemaker tasks, and had become pretty depressed very quickly. A woman who I met told me about this interesting thing called BodyTalk, and she was just so excited about it that I wanted to see what it was all about.
My First BodyTalk Session
As I enter the BodyTalk office, there is soft music playing and a relaxing decor. I was met by the practitioner who definitely looked and talked the part… that is of a woo woo. My upbringing was very traditional, and my family always went to the doctor for everything. Natural healing was a very new concept to me, but at the same time I was very interested. As the session began, tears started streaming down my face as I lay on the table and the practitioner tapped. I asked what was happening, because I had no emotion or thought about what was going on, but there were a lot of tears. It was very weird to experience such detachment. Afterwards, he explained that he was working with helping my body release some inherited emotions, including grief, from a traumatic event. I didn't know that was possible. I walked out after about an hour session and felt like a whole new person. It was like someone removed a huge elephant who had been sitting on my shoulders, and it was an elephant I didn't even know was there. I had no idea that I could feel so light and at ease in my life.
Give Me More of that BodyTalk stuff
There was a BodyTalk course coming up, Modules 1 & 2. I immediately signed up. I couldn't wait to learn how this amazing stuff worked. It was so new and so different, I had to know more. The day of the class arrived and I woke up with the worst case of "allergy" symtoms ever. Thing is, I don't have allergies. I didn't care that my nose was running like a faucet and my eyes were dripping like crazy… I looked like I was really upset and crying… I didn't care… I showed up ready and so excited for the class. I did pull aside the instructor and ask "I don't have allergies, but I'm really experiencing some massive symptoms all of a sudden… what is going on?" He put his hand on my shoulder, paused for a moment, and he said "You're processing". Then he went up and started the class. At the time, I had no idea what he meant, but I was fine with that answer, stuffed some tissue in my nose and got out my pen to take notes. As we learned the basics of doing BodyTalk, we practiced on one another and got lots of mini sessions. The instructor also did sessions on each of us to demonstrate. I understand now how much healing was happening and why I was "processing" so intensely. It was an amazing class, and it changed my life forever.
Becoming a Practitioner
The First day after class, I got the name of a chiropractor in the area who knew one of my friends back home and asked him if he had some space for rent. I was ready to start practicing what I had learned. He said yes and within three days I had a website and a waiting list of people who wanted to experience my practice sessions. I needed to do about 100 sessions and monitor the course 1 more time before I could take the test, so I was getting started. And, this all came together so easily. I would have a thought, take the action and things would happen. It was amazing how fast things happened. Within 3 months, I had taken the course 3 times from different instructors and done over 200 sessions. I got my certification and officially opened my practice. I took all the advanced courses they had and also became an instructor of the Access Class. Withing a few years, I was having months where I earned as much as my husband… who was making 6 figures.
Thank You BodyTalk for the Expanded Awareness
When my husband and I first met, he gave me The Power of Now by Tolle, (on tape) and told me how great it was. It wasn't long after that I gave it back to him and told him that I just didn't get it. I couldn't understand what he was saying at all. I look back now and think how unaware I was, and I realize that me finding BodyTalk and expanding my awareness had to happen if I was going to stay married. Every BodyTalk session I did would teach me a little more, and of course the BodyTalk I received also accelerated my healing. My hubby and I delved into personal development together, he even took a couple BodyTalk courses to have that understanding. To this day challenge one another in areas where we can learn and grow.
May Your Journey With BodyTalk Be One of Awakening!
Love and Light,

Is the best product to buy when washing all colors because it makes your laundry smell so good and it last for such a good time and removes all the things that you want for example slime it removes red wine stain to port wine stain pretty much all wine stains and I would recommend this for anyone who like to run around in dirt or like plays in the mud and stuff like that or just like a normal person who has like regular stains from food I definitely recommend 10 out of 10
Smells great and leaves the smell on my clothing. I work in an office and I really like to rewear clothing that I don't need to wash and the smells stays on my work clothes for 2-3 wears usually depending on what it is. My boyfriend is a messy person and does not have the capability of rewearing clothes. With that being said this detergent lifts all the stains from his clothes and leaves them smelling fresh with one wash. That's saying something.
I recently switched back to a top loader washer, Tide is my go to brand. I have allergies and so do the rest of my family and have had no trouble with any of the tide products irritating our skin, even with scent. I have repurchased this one on many occasions and can find it at my local target for between 8.99-10.99 depending on sales and coupons
I've been using Tide for longer than I can remember, I use it on my clothes, my babies clothes, my dogs clothes and my sheets. I've never broken out from them and they always smell fresh, Tide cleans my clothes so well, ive only had to rewash them if it was truly a bad stain. It's super effective and definitely worth the price you pay.
Very good but it doesn't get the clothing as clean as other detergents that I've tried but still the smell is very good for the clothes when we go outside and everything but like I said the stain they stay there they don't get as clean as I thought they would
This is a great product. I use it to wash my 2 year old's cloth diapers-they are gross! Tide really cleans them-I feel confident using them after the wash, knowing they are clean, and that tide is gentle enough for his bottom!
Great scent! Clothes always smell so fresh after wash. Affordable pricing and gets our clothes very clean. I've never had issues with mixing colors, whites, or bulky items like towels together and using this detergent.
This product makes your clothes smell so so so good and it actually lasts a long time. It's effective with stain removal which is a must with my children. Very affordable and I'd recommend this product to others.
This laundry detergent smells so great! I've been using this for the past year and love it. I have sensitive skin and it hasn't bothered me at all! It's not expensive and I would recommend to others.
This item is so good when you wash your clothes with because after you dry them they take him off of the smell so good and the last is for more time even when I put on my clothes I can still smell it like it smells amazing and I think you should go by this item
How long does the smell last?
Would you use the powder over the gel pods?

For over a century, the US Forest Service, Bureau of Land Management (BLM), and Interior Department have stood idly by while private ranchers and muti-billion dollar mining and timber firms have run roughshod over millions of acres of "federally protected" public lands, many of which are facetiously designated "wilderness areas."
Forests have become so degraded, so fragmented, so infected with unfettered industrial extraction, they no longer qualify as carbon sinks, but as a new source of greenhouse gas emissions.
And if the Dakota Access Pipeline saga taught us anything, it's that the federal government doesn't really care what the Indians drink, as long as it's fermented, distilled, and taxed by the state.
Now, taking inspiration from the Standing Rock Water Protectors and the Maori people of New Zealand, Wisconsin's Ho-Chunk tribe have voted to amend their constitution to extend full legal rights and protection to the water and the land, and all the non-human creatures and spirits who therein reside.
From Indianz:
"In response to the Standing Rock Sioux battle against the Dakota Access pipeline, the Ho-Chunk Nation of Wisconsin amended its constitution to include the Rights of Nature. This is the first time a North American tribe has used a Western legal framework to adopt such laws. Some American municipalities have protected their watersheds against fracking by invoking Rights of Nature.
Operating from a Lakota paradigm, the oil pipeline damage to Standing Rock sacred sites and threats to the Missouri River are an infringement on spiritual connection. Consider the irony of a Western paradigm that gives corporations the rights of people while government agencies give insufficient protection to the actual people affected. What if these waters—connected to the Creation Stories of the Lakota communities—were given legal personhood?
Here's how New Zealand did it. After more than a century of legal battle, the Maori Iwi secured protection by forcing the New Zealand Crown to honor their practices, beliefs, and connection to the Whanganui River. As a result of the Te Awa Tupua Bill (Whanganui River Claims Settlement), the river has the legal rights of a person and is represented by two individuals. In passing this legislation, the New Zealand Crown also committed to protecting the customary practices of the Iwi regarding the river, and offered apologies and financial redress for historical wrongdoing."
Read the rest at Indianz, and keep in mind that America is currently missing 99% of its grasslands, 96% of its old growth forests, and that over half of our rivers are too contaminated to support aquatic ecosystems. LONG LIVE THE LORAX and Power to the Ho-Chunk!

AIDED BY Leeds Rhinos' inability to hang on to the ball, Castleford Tigers bounced back to winning ways with a deserved 23-12 victory at Headingley last night.
It was an outstanding result for Tigers, just five days after their Ladbrokes Challenge Cup defeat at Hull.
Like last month's Magic Weekend meeting at Newcastle, it was close in the first half, but Tigers took control at the start of the second to win by 11 points.
Rhinos led briefly early on, but went in at the break two points down. They played with passion, but allowed hearts to overrule heads.
Tigers were on the back of a punishing game played in sweltering heat, while Leeds had had two extra days' rest.
Rhinos needed to complete their sets and wear the visitors down. Instead they made a succession of errors and didn't put Tigers under any sustained pressure.
Tigers were smarter and their defence was excellent, both Leeds' tries coming directly from a Cas error.
The game was in the balance at the break, but two tries in six minutes early in the second period ensured there was no way back for Leeds, though they kept the scoreline respectable.
Cas are now seven points clear at the top of Betfred Super League, while Leeds have dropped a place to fourth after Hull's win over Wakefield Trinity.
Leeds' hopes of winning the league leaders' shield are all-but over and there's no sign of them being able to beat Tigers this year, so the Cup final is now clearly their best hope of silverware.
Despite last weekend's result, Tigers are coping well with injuries.
Captain Michael Shenton was ruled out due to a knee problem so they fielded a reshuffled back line with Jy Hitchcox coming in on the right-wing and Greg Minikin moving to centre.
In the pack, hooker Adam Milner – who has also been playing at loose-forward – was named at prop in place of Andy Lynch, who was left out.
Grant Millington stepped up off the bench into the other front-row spot and Alex Foster, a substitute last week, started in the second-row against the club where he began his professional career.
Gadwin Springer returned on the bench, after recovering from a hamstring injury and Tom Holmes was recalled though – like Leeds' Jack Walker – he didn't get on.
Leeds' only change was the return of Jamie Jones-Buchanan, who was suspended last week, in the second-row in place of Carl Ablett, who was ruled out due to tonsillitis.
Ashton Golding (hamstring) and Rob Burrow (shoulder) remained on the casualty list despite being named in the initial 19.
Golding could be available for Thursday's visit of St Helens, but Burrow is likely to need surgery to remove "metalwork" inserted after he suffered a broken collarbone three years ago and is set for at least two more weeks on the sidelines.
Rhinos opened the scoring after eight minutes with a contender for the most bizarre try of the season.
Danny McGuire slid a grubber kick over the line, Matt Parcell tried to get a hand on it, but missed and Ben Roberts picked up.
He tried to get into the field of play, but offloaded out of Ryan Hall's tackle straight to Ash Handley.
Referee Robert Hicks indicated a try, but handed the decision on to video assistant Phil Bentham.
He checked that Parcell hadn't touched down or knocked on and that neither Roberts nor Handley had put a foot on the whitewash and eventually the green light was given. Liam Sutcliffe converted and Rhinos led against Tigers for the first time this year, but not for long.
On 13 minutes Greg Eden produced a brilliant diving finish at the corner for his 31st try of the season – from Minikin's pass – and Luke Gale levelled the scores with his conversion after Bentham had confirmed the score.
Hicks had waved the tackle count when the ball came loose from Paul McShane in the build-up to the try – ruling it was knocked out rather than knocked on – and McGuire was sin-binned for protesting.
Rhinos survived their 10 minutes with 12 men, despite a succession of errors early in the tackle count, but Tigers went in front seven minutes before the break when Gale – who was Cas' captain on the night – took the two after Parcell was caught offside on the last tackle.
At the end of the next set Gale put up a huge kick, Tom Briscoe dropped it and Eden touched down. Hicks handed the decision on as a try, but Bentham ruled Foster – who was one of the chasers – had been offside, which was a huge let off for Leeds.
Keith Galloway was held up over the Tigers line soon afterwards and Leeds ended the half on the attack when Joel Moon chipped over the defence and McGuire, Briscoe and Jones-Buchanan carried on the move.
Parcell picked the ball up at acting-half and forced his way over, but Hicks had already blown to signal half-time.
Zak Hardaker, who is on loan at Cas from Leeds before the move is made permanent at the end of the season – was jeered by the home fans on his first return to Headingley.
He gained spectacular revenge at the start of the second half with the try which put Cas firmly in control. There was nothing on when he received the ball inside his own half, but he broke past three attempted tackles, rounded rival full-back Sutcliffe and had time to wave to the Cas fans on the Western Terrace before touching down. Gale's conversion made it 14-6 and he was heavily involved when Tigers extended their lead six minutes later. He was fortunate to win a penalty, against Jones-Buchanan, but his kick on the last tackle was read perfectly by Grant Millington who ran through to touch down.
Bentham checked for a knock-on by Hardaker and ruled he had dropped the ball backwards to Eden, who hacked it on to Gale.
The conversion opened a 14-point gap which Rhinos reduced on the hour when McShane and Hitchcox got in a tangle from McGuire's kick and Adam Cuthbertson touched down, Sutcliffe adding the extras.
But Leeds never looked like pulling the game from the fire and Gale booted a penalty with 10 minutes left before completing the scoring with a late one-pointer.
The penalty count finished 9-9 (6-5 to Leeds in the first half).
Rhinos under-19s were thrashed 54-10 by City of Hull in yesterday's curtain-raiser. Connor Sunderland and Alfie Goddard scored Rhinos' tries and Tom Schofield added a conversion.

ADX Exclusive: MilViz F4!/
FSX/P3D. As many of you who follow closely already know, the F4 has a few development contenders who have thrown their hats into the ring. But without a doubt, MilViz is a very tough opponent to go up against. The MilViz F4 as stated in the last communication from the developers, is getting close. I have been running the F4 through her paces and I must say, she is a ghost right out of my childhood. When I was about 14 I had the ERTL diecast model with retractable gear, a full loadout, and one hell of an imagination. The best part? I am sitting at my computer grinning just like I was 14 doing hand sorties around the backyard! Damn I still enjoy this bird. MilViz is nailing it. I have posted up a few exclusives from my most recent test and all I can say is: I'm in love. Note, this aircraft is still in development. This is simply the latest build.

Today we have the pleasure to show "The Most Beautiful and Unique Bridges in The World" some of the most beautiful bridges in the world. Bridges are described as a structure built to span and provide passage over physical obstacles such as a road, valley or body of water. Of course, the final design of the bridge varies in accordance with its function and the nature of the surrounding terrain, with some of the earliest bridges comprising stones or simple logs in a river. However, today, not only do some bridges serve their purpose, but they also comprise authentic works of art or structures of physical beauty which transform their surroundings or successfully blend in with nature. Here are some examples of the world's most beautiful and unique bridges.
This impressive bridge, located in the 200-acre gothic style Kromlauer Park in Kromlau, was built around 1860. It is called the " Rakotzbrücke" but is more popularly known as the "Devil's Bridge" and consists of an arch bridge made entirely of Basalt stone also used to build various other features in the park. It is no longer open to the public to ensure its preservation, however, with the reflection on the water's surface creating a flawless circle, it is certainly very beautiful.
In the tiny village of Cherrapunji, one of the wettest places on earth, the bridges are not built but grown. These living bridges make use of the roots of the native Ficus elastica tree (rubber tree). They are tamed to grow in a certain direction, a trick learned by the local War-Khasis tribe a long time ago, and whilst they can "grow" over a hundred feet long they take from ten to fifteen years to become fully functional.
The Henderson Waves Bridge stands 36 meters above Henderson Road in Singapore and connects Mount Faber Park to Telok Blangah Hill Park. The stunning wave-like structure, comprising a series of undulating curved steel ribs with thousands of yellow balls wood slats, is what makes this pedestrian bridge so unique. These curved ribs form alcoves providing shelter for the public. At night, the Henderson Waves Bridge beautifully illuminated with LED lights.
Singapore is also home to the Helix Bridge comprising a pedestrian bridge crossing Singapore River and connecting Marina Centre with Marina South in the Marina Bay. If features a double helix structure modeled on DNA, the first of its kind in the world. These two opposing spiral steel members are accompanied by canopies consisting of fritted-glass and perforated steel mesh which are incorporated along parts of the inner spiral to provide shelter and seating for pedestrians that is why it belong to the list of beautiful and unique bridges.
As the name indicates, not only does this bridge provide passage across the Mur River in Graz, Austria, it also features a trendy bar, sunbathing area, coffee bar, open-air theater and children's play area right in the center. Built in 2003, it was designed by New York artist Vito Acconci who created a structure with an organically curved façade featuring triangular facets of either Nirosta steel panels or flat glass panels.
Banpo Bridge, also known as the Moonlight Rainbow Fountain, spans the Han River in Seoul connecting the Seocho and Yongsan districts. It was built as part of a project to revive and allure tourists to the area. What makes the Banpo Bridge so unique is that it was actually built on top of the existing Jamsu Bridge to form part of a double-decker bridge. Later 380 LED nozzles, shooting out 190 tons of water per minute, were added on either side.
The Langkawi Sky Bridge comprises a curved pedestrian cable-stayed bridge located at the peak of Gunung Chinchang mountain on Pulau Langkawi Island, forming part of the Langkawi archipelago in Malaysia. It is accessed by the Langkawi cable car, starting at the Oriental Village located at the foot of the mountain, which climbs to the bridge hanging approximately 100 meters above ground.
The Kintai Bridge comprises a wooden arch bridge located in the city of Iwakuni, Japan. It spans the Nishiki River and what makes it so unique is that comprises a series of five graceful wooden arch bridges built in 1673. It lies at the foot of Mount Yokoyama, home to Iwakuni Castle gracing the top, and is a popular tourist attraction especially during Cherry Blossom festival in autumn and spring.
Finally, the Peace Bridge in Calgary comprises a unique pedestrian bridge that spans the Bow River in Calgary, Canada. It was designed by Spanish architect Santiago Calatrava and takes the form of a helical steel structure with a glass roof. In addition, it features red and white colors to represent the flag of Canada and the flag of Calgary. The Peace Bridge cost a whopping $24.5 million provided by the government and lottery funding.

No, really.
Searching for myself on Google, thankfully, doesn't turn up anything unsavory. My twitter is at the top of the list, with a few pictures that I've tweeted or retweeted, there's some stuff from Wall still hanging around, a few articles I wrote for the Record, and some of my blog posts.
My Facebook doesn't really turn up, but I don't think it would take a genius to find my profile. Thankfully, I believe most of my stuff is hidden to friends only, though I've made sure to keep my Facebook pretty clear of anything offensive. So, it's not there, but if it was I don't think I would need to worry!
My Pinterest page also turns up, and I think that's something I may have to delete or put to private, just because it can be a little personal and the site is meant to be a fun place. I also don't really use it much anymore.
Overall, most of what turns up for me is good! "Ermish" is a surprisingly unique surname, so I've been pretty careful to keep my full name off of my social media history if I know I am using the platform for fun. I don't post anything awful or hateful, of course, but I tend to have a 'potty mouth' when I am excited or just having fun with something. I don't think future employers would be too thrilled to see that sort of thing!
And, naturally, everyone is dumb when they're in their teen and pre-teen years, so most of what I posted during those years, even the stupid stuff, isn't easily accessible or discoverable under my name. It's only really been my college years that I've used my full name on anything, and it's typically been for classes, or because I wasn't worried about the site I was using.
So, thankfully, the late 90's and early 2000's paranoia of 'never use your full name' has paid off! I didn't get abducted, and now my internet history is pretty clean as a result. Perhaps an unintended side-effect, but I think it would still be a great thing to preach to younger kids today. Information is already easily found and accessible, but I can imagine that it will become even more easily found in the future. There will also, no doubt, be even more social media sites for people to use and collect data on as well, so it wouldn't hurt to be careful.
I take care to google myself regularly, especially before applying for a job, and I would certainly recommend that others do as well. If something pops up that you can delete or explain, that you wouldn't want an employer to see, then at least you can catch it first! And for the future, I think I will continue to make sure to watch where I choose to post my full name.

ED Hiring Press Release
Pittsburgh Community Television
Date: July 18, 2009
Contact: Stanford White, 412-400-9990
Gladys Jelks, 412—322-7570
John H. Patterson Tapped To be New Executive Director at PCTV
Pittsburgh, PA — Pittsburgh Community Television (PCTV) is pleased to announce the hiring of John H. Patterson as Executive Director.
Mr. Patterson comes to Pittsburgh from Santa Cruz, California where he has served as Executive Director at Community Television of Santa Cruz County (CTSCC) since November 2006. At CTSCC, Mr. Patterson oversaw several key initiatives including the conversion of the organization's website to Web 2.0, the expansion of programming to include web-based video, the establishment of a mini-documentary program for local non-profits, the development of new programs for youth and the brokering of a partnership with a local internet service provider to stream CTSCC's channels on the web.
He also participated in efforts to reshape California's statewide video franchise bill and led CTSCC's effort to complete a long-range strategic plan.
Mr. Patterson has a strong background in arts and media management that goes back over 10 years. Prior to his work at CTSCC, Mr. Patterson served as Managing Director of Santa Cruz Actors' Theatre. At Actors' Theatre, Mr. Patterson founded an artists-inresidence program dedicated to the development of new work for the stage, led a fundraising effort that resulted in the complete renovation of an 88-seat performance space, and created a subscription season program featuring the work of local production
Mr. Patterson's experience is not limited to the administrative side of the fence. He began his work in the arts and media at a public access TV station in high school in the Philadelphia area and later went on to earn a degree in Radio-TV-Film at Northwestern University where he produced actively in all three mediums. He's also a produced and
published playwright whose works have been performed in California, Texas, and Tennessee.
"That's one of the things we really liked about John", says PCTV Board Chair Stanford White. "He has all of the essential skills you need in a good non-profit leader, including things like fundraising and strategic planning, but he also understands the creative side of
things, having been on the other side himself."
Mr. Patterson is delighted to be coming to Pittsburgh as PCTV's new Executive Director. "Pittsburgh is the City of Champions, and it deserves a championship caliber public access station," says Patterson. "What really attracted me to this job was the tremendous
diversity of this City and the opportunity to help bring a first-class 21st Century media center to its residents. PCTV has an outstanding record of service to the community and I look forward to building on that."
Patterson's vision for PCTV is rooted in the belief that technological change has created possibilities that would have seemed far-fetched when PCTV was formed in 1986. "We're living in a multi-platform multi-media on-demand world," Patterson says. "PCTV, like all media outlets, is adjusting to that. Television is the anchor, but I see PCTV expanding further into the realm of new media and providing access to tools and ways of accessing programming that reflect the new media landscape."
Despite the rapid pace of change, Patterson believes that the mission of community media remains the same. "It's really about telling the story of a community and helping make that possible for people. That can take a variety of forms, but at the heart it's about a community telling its own story. I see PCTV at the forefront of that for Pittsburgh."
PCTV is currently advocating for increased funding for public access in the proposed franchise agreement with Verizon. "It is important that PCTV be well funded," says Patterson. "Pittsburgh really has an opportunity to be on par with cities like New York with this agreement when it comes to public access. Television and media can be an expensive proposition and it needs to be well-funded to do it justice."
PCTV recently completed an extensive needs assessment process that unequivocally established the necessity of a well funded public access operation in Pittsburgh. Some of the things on the wish list for PCTV include funding for a new 10,000 square foot studio, one or more satellite facilities throughout the City, and annual funding for the replacement of aging equipment. "I was impressed with the scope of the needs assessment," says Patterson. "To me it made clear that the people of Pittsburgh, including many of its key organizations, want and need a well-funded public access operation."
"We are delighted to be bringing John on board at this time," says PCTV Board President Stanford White. "We conducted a nation-wide search and we are pleased to be able to bring someone of John's caliber to Pittsburgh. He brings a great combination of skills and background to PCTV, and we couldn't be happier with our selection."
Mr. Patterson will assume the reins at PCTV the week of August 17th.

Many drivers dread parallel parking. Trying to fit into a tight space between two other vehicles can be a real challenge, but with the right instructions and a little practice, you can become an expert at parallel parking. National City car insurance professionals offer some tips on the proper way to parallel park.
Find a Parking Spot
An ideal parallel parking spot is about one and a half times the length of your car. Don't worry about measuring the space precisely. After some practice, you should be able to determine if you can easily fit into a spot. The bigger the space is, the easier it will be to parallel park.
Line Up Your Car Properly
Pull up next to the car in front of the spot you want, lining up your passenger side door with the parked car's driver side door. Pull up closely next to the car (but not too close), as if there is a parking space divider between both vehicles. Check your side view mirrors and look behind you to make sure there are no cars coming. Put on your right turn signal to indicate you're attempting to park in the empty space. If cars do come up behind you, just allow them to pass or wave them on. Be patient and don't panic. Other drivers will understand what you are trying to do.
Reverse at an Angle
With your foot on the brake, put your vehicle in reverse and slowly let off the brake while turning the wheel to the right. This allows you to enter the space at an angle. Continue reversing, and once you're about a foot away from the curb (still at an angle), or when you can see both headlights of the car behind you in your right side-view mirror, hit the brakes.
Straighten and Turn the Wheel the Opposite Way
Straighten your wheel out while still in reverse, and begin turning the wheel in the other direction to slowly straighten your car out, bringing the front of your car into the space. If you have a rear backup camera, use it to make sure you don't hit the curb or the car behind you.
Pull Forward and Adjust
At this point, your car should be mostly straight in the space, although you may be a bit close to the car behind you. Put the car in drive and pull forward a bit, making sure to leave enough room for the cars behind you and in front of you to pull out. About a foot of space on both sides is a good rule of thumb to follow. In addition, your car should ideally be about 6 to 8 inches away from the curb, and no more than a foot.
Minor fender benders often occur when parallel parking. Make sure you're covered with adequate auto insurance by getting in touch with American Tri-Star.

It appears as if launching new color variants of the already existing smartphones is going to be the new trend. Recently, Samsung had launched two new color variants — Coral Blue and Black Pearl variants for its flagship, the Galaxy S7 Edge. Following suit, Xiaomi, the Apple of East has now added two color variants — blue and black to its Redmi Note 4 lineup.
The Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 was launched in China earlier this year in three colors: Silver, Gray, and Gold. But going forward, the smartphone will be available in two more colors as mentioned above.

From the image, the new color variants surely look very impressive. But it remains to be seen if they'll manage to impress us the same way when we get our hands on the device.
Speaking of which, recently a report surfaced online indicating that the Redmi Note 4 will be launched in India sometime in January 2017. Interestingly enough, the smartphone will be launched in three different RAM variants — 2GB, 3GB and 4GB of RAM teamed with 16GB, 32GB, and 64GB storage variants with support for expandable storage.

Rethinking Economics Waterloo is a student-led movement to unveil, rethink, and give voice to diversity in economics education and thought. We are a chapter of Rethinking Economics and international student movement for pluralism in economics.
About the movement
Here at Rethinking Economics Waterloo, we embrace the vision and mission of the larger Rethinking Economics movement:
- We believe students should be taught to think independently and critically. This involves a critical approach to particular models within each school of economics, as well as the whole methodological structures underlying different schools of economics.
- We need to recognise the plurality within economics. In most courses "economics" is shorthand for "neoclassical economics". There is no recognition of the variety of schools of thought within economics, across history or across the world. Academic integrity requires that alternative economic theories be introduced to students, alongside those currently taught. Economic questions cannot necessarily be answered adequately from a single theoretical standpoint, or solely from a mathematical approach.
- Economics, as in the case of any other social sciences, cannot always be value-neutral. Therefore we demand that the philosophical, political and ethical underpinnings of different economic theories should be explicitly discussed during lectures and seminars. Economists need to remain critical of the ethical underpinnings and consequences of their theories.
- Economics as it is taught currently is disconnected from real-world events and policies. In many departments, much of the curricula in the last few decades have slowly lost all mention of contemporary events or facts. This means that students are not being equipped to engage in real-world debates. We believe economics graduates should be prepared to consider and react to the economic problems that the world faces, because societies are shaped by economic events and policies, which are in turn shaped by people's understandings of economics.
- Economic theory needs to be presented alongside economic evidence. Real-world data should be used to spark discussions of how useful different theories are. Students should be able to weigh up theories against evidence, criticise the multiple uses of evidence, and understand why statistical methods are contestable. This includes debating what constitutes evidence, and conditions under which finding evidence may not be possible.
- We believe a context-free economics is a misguided economics. Economic theories cannot be fully understood independently of the institutional, cultural and technological context in which they were formulated. Therefore, links to economic history and the history of economic thought should be made wherever possible. We should recognise that while some of today's economic theories are a scientific "progression" from the past, many of them are just a different way of looking at society.
- As well as recognising the strengths of our approaches, we should foster humility and self-awareness within economics. We need to specifically mention the limitations of our approaches, and recognise that there are a plurality of disciplines that study society which have insights to offer economics. Interdisciplinary dialogue is necessary for economics to grow. We must stop isolating ourselves from anthropology, sociology and political science when we have much to learn from them.
- We want to stress that individual departments are not the cause of the problem. It is difficult for any individual economist or department to act independently of others. We need to take the lead by pushing for reform together, within and across countries.
Rethinking Economics Waterloo invites you to be a part of this movement. You don't have to be an economics student to talk about current issues, victories, and evolutions in economics education and practice.
About the Waterloo chapter
At present, the Waterloo chapter of Rethinking Economics is currently organized by University of Waterloo students Alexandra Kraushaar and Geoffrey Hill, with additional support from Benjamin Nelson and Peter Last.

Jason Blum, one of the minds behind the hit movie 'Get Out' has teamed up with the charismatic creative Dee Rees to create a lesbian horror movie inspired by the release.
In a New York Times-penned piece named 'The Scarily Profitable Hits of Jason Blum', the publication reveals:
Rees, it emerged, was a serious horror fan. She told Blum about two recent movies that she especially admired, "Hush" and "Creep," and Blum said that as it happened they were also Blumhouse projects. Rees said she had an idea for her own low-budget horror picture — one location, tiny cast — set in a small town not unlike the one where she has lived for the last year. Blum listened carefully. "You've got me and my wife, two black lesbians, and when we first moved in, we fought every day over all these little things: 'Why is this over there? Did you move that?' "
A few weeks after Blum met Rees, I called her to see if anything had come of their impromptu pitch meeting. Something had, Rees said. They'd met for lunch and talked about a deal. She told me what was most surprising wasn't that she was suddenly developing a horror movie centred on the domestic lives of black lesbians in rural America but that Blum had followed up at all. "I can't tell you how rare it is that people mean what they say in this business," she said. "He's just letting me make the best possible version of what I want to make."
The creatives are yet to unlock details on the black lesbian horror project set in rural America but Rees, who is to thank for the movie 'Mudbound', did say this about its plot.
Maybe it was a ghost. Or maybe it was some other force — like us not wanting to be there or fitting in.

Here is some more information about the training options we provide our clients, but remember, we will pick and choose exactly the modules you require. We provide bespoke, one-to-one and small group training nationwide and from our company HQ in Birmingham.
Create a solid grounding in the relevant social platforms. We'll help optimise your profiles to create the best possible first impression before looking at a content and interaction strategy. This may focus on a particular platform or a combination based on your business and goals and will help you manage your own social media presence.
Paid media spend is important on social media and Facebook advertising is likely to play a vital role in generating brand awareness in sales, especially for consumer-facing brands.

LinkedIn is an incredibly powerful tool for building a network and generating leads, especially in B2B businesses.

We'll assess your goals and current network and build a strategy as well as studying the functionality of the platform.

We tailor sessions for the beginner, intermediate and advanced individual and groups. More on LinkedIn training.
Twitter is the most underused, undervalued and misunderstood social media tool. According to Social Media Examiner, only 12% of marketers regard Twitter as their most important social marketing tool although it is often described as the only true social media platform. Find out more about training specifically for Twitter.
Google AdWords is a powerful method to drive high-quality traffic to your website. Search marketing qualifies your audience differently to social media marketing and this means it can open up a significant new audience for your business. Our AdWords trainers work alongside you to set up and optimise your AdWords campaign to help bring in new leads every week, giving you complete control over your ongoing budget.
Our social media training can provide you with an appraisal on your current and potential social presence as well as ideas on content and strategy using the necessary social media platforms. Competitor analysis is also incredibly useful, as is a look at contributing marketing efforts such as blogging and email campaigns.
Social media coaching
Coaching contracts are proving increasingly popular with small businesses. This option provides the best of both the social media management and training worlds. Our trainer will work closely with you to improve your knowledge and expertise whilst one of our social media managers helps look after your social presence. This means you have your accounts expertly managed from the word "go" and can learn all the tricks of the trade.
Coaching typically consists of an initial training session followed by a combination of management hours and ongoing support on a weekly or monthly basis. The coaching period lasts as long as you require to feel confident you can take your marketing activity in-house. The programme is flexible around your needs and can include a combination of face-to-face training or Skype and online coaching.

I've written this script to put on doors of rooms people rent. It's designed to collect rent every 7 days from the time they've first opened the door with their key:
// Rent collection script that goes in the OnOpen for player's door
#include "datetime"
void main()
object oPC = GetLastOpenedBy();
object oKey = GetFirstItemInInventory(oPC);
int bAlreadyOpened = GetPersistantDynamicInt(oKey, "Rent Collection On");
string sNextPayment;
string sKeyTag;
string sDoorTagOwner = GetStringLeft(GetTag(OBJECT_SELF), 4);
struct DateTime sNow = getCurrentDateTime();
struct DateTime sRentCollectionTime =
addDateTime(GetPersistantDateTime(oKey, "Rent Start Time"), newDateTime(0,0,7,0));
// Check if the PC has the door's key
while (GetIsObjectValid(oKey))
// Check if sDoorTagOwner is the same as the first 4 letters of sKeyTag
// Key tag names are usually of the format <Character Name>Key, and door
// tag names for renters are usually of the format <Character Name>Door.
sKeyTag = GetStringLeft(GetTag(oKey),4);
if (TestStringAgainstPattern(sKeyTag, sDoorTagOwner))
// if this object is in fact the door key, check to see if this is
// the first time the door is being opened by the player. If it is,
// start the rent clock ticking. Collect rent every 7 days.
if (!bAlreadyOpened)
// Set key to Rent Collection Status ON
SetPersistantInt(oKey, "Rent Collection On", TRUE, 60, SCRIPTNAME_GENERAL);
// Set Rent Start time to Current Time
SetPersistantDateTime(oKey, "Rent Start Time", sNow);
// if the door has already been opened before, check the time on the key
// to see if 7 days have passed since the last Rent Start Time
// if more than 7 days have passed, collect the rent and reset the rent
// start time
else if (bAlreadyOpened

&& GetGold(oPC) >= 1000)
TakeGoldFromCreature(1000, oPC, TRUE);
SendMessageToPC(oPC, "1000 gold has been taken for your rent.");
SetPersistantDateTime(oKey, "Rent Start Time", sNow);
// if the player doesn't have enough gold after 7 days, destroy their key

&& GetGold(oPC) <= 1000)

Ahoyhoy! I hope you are all having a good Saturday; I personally just watched 8 episodes of How I Met Your Mother in a row. I regret nothing. Today I'm talking about something I've had quite a while now, but I desperately need to tell you about them – behold the Nanshy Eye Brush Set.
Nanshy Eye Brush Set
£29.95 at Amazon & BeautyStore4U
They say:
Health, Beauty, and Ease – Nanshy Eye Brush Set have it all. There are no trade-offs.
This set of Nanshy eye brushes features high quality, synthetic, vegan, cruelty free, antibacterial brushes that give you a flawless application! Approved by PETA.org because they're 100% Vegan, and Cruelty Free! Professional quality brushes for your eyes, brows and lips too, if you like. The Nanshy Eye Brush Set features specialised design, in shape and contour, seven (7) distinct makeup brushes for creating your polished, complete, and natural look! Any level of artistry, this cosmetic brush set will make an immense difference in your make-up application. Made from synthetic hair, on extremely comfortable handles, the bristles are silky soft on top, yet durably firm on the bottom.
I say:
I received this set waaay back in October after I responded (I think!) to a tweet from Nanshy from people to try their brushes. After I had seen positive reviews from other bloggers I was a little sceptical. Could they really be that good?
The Nanshy Eye Brush Set comprises of 7 brushes: Precise Bent Eyeliner Brush, Angled Detailer Brush, Flat Definer Brush, Blending Eyeshadow Brush, Eye Crease Brush, Tapered Crease Brush and the Large Shader Brush. All of these brushes are antibacterial and synthetic; this means that they are cruelty free and suitable for vegans (yay!). They are all so soft and do not scratch in the absolute slightest; they actually feel quite nice and gentle. They have never irritated my eyes like other cheap versions have done in the past.
I personally love the labelling on the handles of the brushes, as I can see what brush I need at what time (I am useless at this ol' eyeshadow thing!). I have experienced the smallest of shedding since I received these, and this has been down to my overzealous washing. They are not heavy, but they are not flimsy light either.
My favourites from this set are the Large Shader Brush, the Flat Definer, the Angled Definer and the Eye Crease Brush. The Large Shader Brush is perfect for setting up your base colour; the bristles are so densely packed it means that you pick up the right amount of eyeshadow without making a mess! I use the Angled Definer for my eyebrows as it's much thinner than other brow brushes so I can be more careful about defining the shape – more often than not other brushes give me "the slugs". The Flat Definer is one I can use to experiment with liquid and gel eyeliner as the flat top means I can sort of "dab" it on in small lines to join them up. If I want to add a little definition to my eyes, I use the Eye Crease Brush just to pat some colour towards the outer end of my eye.
Can they really be that good? Yes, yes they are. When I met up with Kel and Hayley last year, we were nattering about these brushes and we all simultaneously agreed how good they were. I am really grateful that I got the opportunity to try them out and see for myself why they have so much well deserved hype. They make me want to be more experimental with make up. I understand that at nearly the £30 mark, they may be out of reach for some, but I would recommend these over any other eye set. For £29.95, you get every brush you could ever need for an eye make up look. If you feel you need to spend £20 on one brush from MAC to have great eye make up, you are wrong; you need this set.
Would you try Nanshy Brushes?

Nanshy Eye Brush Set sent for consideration of review. No further compensation received.
