Innately, word of mouth is an integral part of human communication, whether it's deciding what movie to go see or which dentist has the best practice. Therefore, businesses should expect that people talk about their products and services, and that word of mouth be integrated into their overall marketing strategy.
According to Business Dictionary, word of mouth marketing (or WOMM) is "oral or written recommendation by a satisfied customer to the prospective customers of a good or service," and is "considered to be the most effective form of promotion." What makes word of mouth so successful? According to Nielsen Holdings Inc., a global information, data, and measurements company, 92 percent of consumers follow recommendations from people they trust (such as friends, family and influencers) over all other forms of marketing and advertising. Additionally, 68 percent of consumers trust online reviews from other customers, while 75 percent of people don't believe advertisements, according to Hubspot.
Besides overwhelming statistics pointing toward the effectiveness of WOMM, why else should a brand develop a word of mouth campaign? First, word of mouth is one of the most cost-effective forms of marketing. It comes with a degree of ease, as social media and other web platforms are usually free and readily accessible to all. Additionally, WOMM builds trust among consumers for the brands they support. This is important as WOMM can backfire if the product or service isn't satisfactory, and it's most effective when a brand offers a product or experience that is unique and solves a customer's problem.
Your company's brand is your company's story, and effective WOMM ensures that your story is spread far and wide to those it relates to most. For example, Tintoretta Tattoo, a small shop located in the West Bottoms of Kansas City, Missouri, is known for its inclusivity of women and minorities of color. This is significant because tattoo shops are often uncomfortable and unwelcoming toward people who fall under either of those categories.
According to the New York Times, only one out of six tattoo artists are female even though more women than men have tattoos. Tintoretta's resolve to only hire female artists is a perfect example of a business offering a unique service that people are bound to talk about.
How does a brand go about cultivating word of mouth? Technically, word of mouth happens regardless. If a service is poor or ineffective, customers are likely to complain to anyone interested in their opinion. Word of mouth is word of mouth whether the feedback is positive or negative. The goal of a brand is to do everything in their power to give customers a reason to spread positive feedback.
Successful WOMM hinges on customer engagement. Customer engagement is when consumers of a product or service share their experiences with the brand in question. This is cultivated through excellent customer service, social media savvy, respect of all customer feedback (whether they were satisfied or not) and genuine understanding of what customers want and need.
Brands should also encourage their customers to leave feedback and reviews, both for the brand's own understanding of what they do successfully versus what could use improvement, and to reach a broader spectrum of potential customers.
With quality products and services, acute awareness of what satisfies customers and meaningful engagement, a brand is well on its way to cultivating successful word of mouth.

Answered by Saba Bosuener, remote travel agent
As I travel continuously, I mainly rely on my global travel insurance in order to get treated for check-ups. Therefore I do not receive any special perks when I am in my home country which means I do my medical check-ups when I see the need arise in the location where I am at the moment.
Many digital nomads I meet, however, still have stronger insurance coverage packages in their home countries which means they usually just get treated abroad whenever unforeseen incidents occur such as accidents. For everything else, many of them choose to get regular check-ups in their home country.
So far I have used the following insurance providers and have had good experiences with both of them
They provide coverage such as trip cancellation, emergency assistance, and medical check-ups. A great feature of this company is that you can register to their insurance policy even when you are in a foreign country already. They will give you a quotation based on several parameters like date of travel, destination, etc.
Allianz provides various plans and offers which also include serious chronic conditions other than normal check-ups, doctor visit, medical expenses on a day-to-day basis; it also includes emergency treatment, surgery or even maternity care.
Credit Card Insurance
Depending on whether or not you possess a credit card it is worth a look at their policy. Often credit cards include insurance coverage for trips booked with that specific card to amounts of 90 days.

Old Town tour with light show
Watch the incredible light art show where paintings last minutes! It is a unique technique which you can see only in Prague. After a guided tour you enter the theater, watch a show, and then try it yourself in a workshop.
Meet your local, professional guide at the Old Town Square at 3 pm. Walk around the city center and find all the highlights such as the Astronomical clock, Estates Theater, Municipal house, Wenceslas Square, and Charles Bridge.
After two hour walk you enter a theater located by the Charles Bridge. You will experience the one and only show in the world: light art show. The artists need to paint quickly with a spray because the pictures are disappearing. It is a fascinating show with music and great art. After the show you may take part in a workshop and try to paint by yourself. This is a good trip with kids but anybody will be amazed.
The tour ends in the city center by the Charles Bridge, you need to find your way back to the hotel.
Watch the video.
Meeting point: in front of Cartier shop at the Old Town Square (corner to Parizska/Paris street)
Reviews on Tripadvisor
"Don't Miss this Private Tour of the Jewish Quarter in Prague by Lenka"
There is so much to see and learn from the multiple remarkable sites of the Jewish Quarter that we were so thrilled to have booked this tour with Supreme Prague. Our guide, Lenka, a scholar of Jewish history, was fabulous. She was friendly, courteous, efficient, and eminently knowledgeable about all of the astounding synagogues to see, the striking Jewish cemetery, and all points in between. There are so many important facts and details that she conveyed that made our experience so meaningful. The remarkable Jewish culture that once thrived here and the tragedy of its decimation by the Nazis were conveyed with sensitivity and clarity. This was a truly unforgettable learning experience and sites not to be missed during your visit to Prague.
"Three unforgettable days in Prague"
We spent three unforgettable days in Prague thanks to Eva's perfectly organized tours and suggested restaurants, hotels (prior to our trip), concerts and places to explore. Eva's English is great and she is a multilingual tour guide. Eva's knowledge of Prague, sense of humor and easy going nature make for a very pleasant time spent with her. In short, everything was at 100% and exceeded our expectations…
"Lenka was the perfect start for our Prague visit"
After our walking tour this morning I felt comfortable and ready to explore the city. Lenka walked us through the new town then onto the old town, pointing out history and architectural elements. She also suggested several places to eat, U Pinkasu, a very old restaurant, was truly amazing and the Pilsner beer was cold and perfect. I would definitely book a tour again with this guide service!

Chuck Tender Steak Highland Wagyu
In Stock ~ Product Supplied Frozen
Chuck Tender Steak of Highland Wagyu isn't a steak usually recognised as a Steak, more a braising steak. As with the rest of the carcass our aim was to maximise the steak cuts by harvesting as many new, suitable muscles to steak. To do this we had to sample dozens of cuts, one of which was the Chuck Tender. Not expecting this normally fairly tough cut to be suitable for steaking, we went about breaking the muscle into the two sides that sit sandwiching a thick undesirable seam of gristle. We sliced and cooked of a piece from the first side and found it wasn't great, we put it to one side and tried the other side with little confidence... Boooom!!! It was delicious. Tender, with lots of flavour when cooked rare. Just don't ask me what side was best, I'll take note of that the next time!
Although this cut has a little more bite than the prime cuts, it's beautiful light marbling showed through making these a great, new and exciting steak to try.
- Prime F2 Scottish Wagyu from Highland Wagyu, Perthshire
- Producers of possibly the Best Beef in the UK
- Cook rare for best results
- Sensational flavour and texture
- A wonderfully diverse steak suitable for so many recipes

Twist And Shout
Episode Recaps
The 40th anniversary of the Beatles' touchdown in America has occasioned a couple of hardcover odes to joy — a description especially applicable in the case of Martin Goldsmith, who, as XM satellite radio's classical music director, isn't one to order Beethoven to roll over. His THE BEATLES COME TO AMERICA (Wiley, $19.95) is part memoir and part musicology lesson, but mostly it's a breezily intelligent band biography that just happens to terminate with the historic '64 Ed Sullivan appearances…making it perhaps the first serious Beatles history to have a truly happy ending. Any fairy-tale aspects of the Fabs' ascent surely aren't lost on Peter Smith, either. The novelist's nonfiction detour, TWO OF US: The Story of a Father, a Son, and the Beatles (Houghton Mifflin; $23), amusingly and movingly recounts how an iciness in his relationship with his 7-year-old son was broken by the lad's sudden, all-consuming Beatles fixation, even after the kid moved on to other boyish pursuits like SpongeBob and Chopin. This gem of a book isn't strictly for parents or Beatlemaniacs: Smith makes a great larger case for how our pop-culture obsessions can really represent a nobler desire to connect with our fellow islands — er, human beings. Read either of these and you may just want to hold somebody's hand.

your Smart Home Security system can help keep unwanted visitors away by working with your other smart devices to simulate an occupied home. The system can turn on compatible lights, and the 90-decibel internal speaker can play sounds like a barking dog, to make any potential intruder think twice.
Entertainment at its finest.
A high-end home theater is more than just the sum of its components. Whether you use it for movies, sports or gaming, you'll probably want to extend the experience to other features within the house. For example, do you want the lights to dim automatically when your movie starts to play? Since smart home solutions allow for systems in your home to "speak" to each other, your dealer can program your lighting (and even your temperature) to react to your home theater.
When it comes to maneuvering wires and installing your theater's devices, working with a technology professional means you simply can sit back and relax. As theater installation experts, we have years of experience building the infrastructures for private cinemas throughout Connecticut. Our dedicated work will ensure your theater is prepared to support a top-of-the-line viewing experience. But our theater projects entail more than just preparing a theater for its technology.

In fact, display settings that degrade the performance of the backlights can be adjusted to optimal values during a professional calibration.
It's not only about making it look good, but sound good as well:
Many audiophiles will change equipment, speakers, or cables in the hope of improving imaging, soundstaging or bass response. What most don't realize is that how they set up your system is as important as their equipment. This is why our in depth knowledge will allow you to exploit the full potential of your video and sound systems.
Expert consulation:
The fact is, every private cinema is different. And your project deserves our undivided attention so that you can get the best use out of your space. From the moment you reach out to our team, we can begin working with you to build a custom design for your theater. Have a specific theme or idea in mind? Tell us, and we can include it in our plans.
Entertainment at its finest.
Save energy, Enhance comfort & convinience and improve safety & Security
Today, energy efficiency is an essential element of every home and business. When considering your options, keep in mind that dimming saves energy without sacrificing style or convenience.
For single homes, buildings, or large commercial campuses, brands like Lutron offer dimmers, sensors, control systems, and integration with curtains and shades to save energy, optimize system performance and estetics.
Lighting is one of the most important considerations when it comes to interior design. You want to ensure that your home is well lit in certain places and that you have just the right amount of light in others. Smart lighting can be controlled using various smartphones, tablets and even desktop computers; and of course there are the manual controls should you wish to make any adjustments.
Customization: create personalized themes so that you house wakes up and goes to sleep with you automatically, by voice control, with an app or at the click of a button. Play your favorite song, dim the lights, close the shades or all of the above
Opening and closing your shades has never been this easy:
Smart, motorized shades can help control the solar gain and heat loss your home experiences naturally throughout the day simply by opening and closing at pre-programmed times. With the addition of smart home technology, the blinds can actually learn when they need to open and close based on temperature and sun light, maximizing the energy efficiency of your HVAC system.
The ideal security system
The power to transform any space with light is at the palm of your hand. Control lights and shades in a single room or throughout your entire home using a hand-held remote, wall-mounted keypad, voice commands or your mobile device. Open or close your shades automatically at specific times according to your daily routine. Create themes for privacy, dinner parties or everyday use. Integrate your shades with your favorite voice command device such as Alexa or Google Assistant and even integrate it with Sonos to play your favorite play list.
Working in harmony.
From smart light bulbs and thermostats that think for themselves to Bluetooth door locks, wireless security cameras, and all manner of sensors, today's home technology can sound awfully sophisticated while actually being a messy hodgepodge of gizmos and apps. Whether you call it home automation or the connected home, installing all this stuff in your house is one thing. Getting it to work together smoothly and with a single user interface can be something entirely different.
New hardware products arrive on the home networking scene frequently. Understanding what new capabilities they offer is essential to planning future upgrades. Your existing home network equipment can function and provide "good enough" support for many years, but maintaining the best home network setup requires much more frequent updating.
Control anywhere:
The Smart Home Automation Interface is how you interact with your home. It can be as simple as a hand held remote for your video experience or a touchscreen to browse and play your favorite music collection. It can even be a keypad that controls all the lighting, music, window treatments and more throughout your entire home. The Interface can also be programmed to control your favorite smartphone, tablet, wrist device from anywhere on the globe. Each Interface is designed for simple and effortless access to the features that you desire most, with a consistent look and feel across the entire home.
Designed fro perfection
Both Crestron and Control 4 smart home automation systems have apps that have been designed to function on all of your favorite mobile devices. You can lock doors, turn on lights, adjust the temperature and even close the garage door with a touch of a button from the application. These applications allow you opportunity to connect and access your home's platform from anywhere.
Sound & voice
Your voice-activated virtual assistant serves as your universal remote — controlling your TV, lights, temperature, blinds, multiple speakers throughout the home, home-security system and so on. There's no more worrying whether you left the lights or the stove on, or the front door unlocked; you can double- and triple-check remotely via smartphone to your heart's content.
Elevate your music listening experience with a space precisely designed to wow your ears and rattle your soul. Whether you're in the mood for some rock, jazz or a piece of classical music, a properly engineered room will help you get the most out of your high-fidelity sound system. Audio Den will deploy the appropriate combination of audio electronics, speakers, accessories and acoustic treatments that meets your needs, budget and aesthetic. We can even help you design and build a dedicated listening room from the ground up.
Smart speakers can quickly become the focal point of every automated system in your home, giving you unprecedented control over your devices and making them easier than ever to use. While voice control is great at controlling individual pieces of smart home technology, its real beauty lies in tying multiple systems together in an intuitive manner.
The future is here:
You could lower the shades, dim the lights and adjust the temperature in your bedroom with individual commands, or you can use voice control to trigger them all simultaneously in response to a simple phrase. These premade "scenes" you can build through your home control system are a great way to simplify your lifestyle through automation, and smart speakers can allow you to access them through just your voice.
The power of a Multi-room sound system
Transform your home into a musical retreat with streamed music in each room, and crystal clear surround sound in your home theater. A complete home audio system starts from a centralized audio and video system that broadcasts music and video signals throughout the whole home. Utilizing a central system keeps bulky and ugly equipment hidden, meaning the only components in each room are speakers and TV screens that can be seamlessly integrated with your room design.
Entertainment at its finest.
Want to make sure that you arrive back to toasty warm home? Set the inbuilt astrological clock to turn on your underfloor heating, towel rails, electric fireplace and heat pumps on at certain times, during certain months so that your home will always be ready for your arrival.
During parties, movie nights and other activities that involve a lot of people, body heat will naturally cause certain rooms to feel too warm. Climate control will use your in-room sensors to trigger your smart home system to automatically adjust the appropriate thermostats to a cooler setting, while simultaneously altering the intensity of the lighting and shades if necessary.
AC Control
If your home has multiple remotes and keypad interfaces for your HVAC, underfloor heating, fireplace etc then you would be familiar with the wall clutter seen in the picture below. Preserve your interior design and simplify your life by allowing your smart home system to adjust them all from one user interface, like the screen of a touch panel or smartphone.
Energy management
If you have a climate management system in place then its good news for you and the environment because your smart home can override and power off automatic or timer based settings in certain situations e.g. By pushing Vacation mode all HVAC powers off, so you don't waste unnecessary electricity when you are away.

2017 Wacky Dog Name Nominee
After the passing of their beloved Shih Tzu, Taj LeRoy and her family of Discovery Bay, California decided to bring a new puppy into the pack. Because Taj and her husband Steve loved the temperament and size of their last dog, they decided to look for another female Shih Tzu. After finding the exact puppy they were looking for, a search for a name began, and Taj was determined to find the perfect fit.
"I started researching historic, Chinese Empresses to match her heritage," said Taj. "I came across the history of the feminist Dowager Empress of China, Tzu Hsi and I thought it was a great fit, but I wanted to change it just a bit, and that's when we came up with Empress Tzu Tzu."
Empress Tzu Tzu has now grown into a playful and loving puppy who is incredibly smart. Empress Tzu Tzu has gone through extensive training and is a registered therapy dog that travels everywhere with her family. She's also incredibly social and loves hanging out with Taj & Steve's son's Golden retriever, Lincoln, and even tries to play with Hamilton, Taj's sister's pet pig!
The LeRoy's have been longtime Nationwide pet insurance advocates and have had all their dogs insured since learning about the product.
"Purchasing pet insurance was one of the best decisions we made as pet owners," said Taj. "It really paid off when Empress Tzu Tzu went through serious medical issues. Knowing she was covered allowed us to focus on getting the best veterinary care possible without worrying about the financial aspects."

Thirteen years after they first shared a commentary table, former Pride FC announcers Bas Rutten and Mauro Ranallo will once again sit side by side to analyze and discuss combat sports when they reunite on the upcoming season of Inside MMA on AXS TV.
Speaking to MMAWeekly.com, Rutten discussed his camaraderie with Ranallo, the passing of his one-time UFC rival Kevin Randleman, and what's going on in his ever-busy world.
MMAWeekly.com: Firstly, Bas, how did you feel to find out you'd be reunited with Mauro Ranallo on AXS TV's Inside MMA?
Bas Rutten: I thought it was great. I already knew that with Kenny (Rice) that he was going to be so busy with NBC with boxing and Kentucky Derby and the Olympics coming up. Mauro and I just started a podcast and then suddenly I got a little rumor that Mauro was going to do Inside MMA with me, so I started making phone calls and then I realized what was going on.
First we do a podcast together, which we just started and really enjoy, and now we're going to work together on Inside MMA, so we're stoked to say the least.
MMAWeekly.com: How has the chemistry grown or changed since you first teamed up in Pride FC 13 years ago?
Bas Rutten: I certainly think things have gotten better. Back in 2003 is when Mauro came to Pride FC, that was the first big MMA show he had done, and now after all these years with the work he's done with all the biggest companies on the planet, it only helps.
Mauro is always learning. He'll sit in his car and read notes. That's the way he's always been. I haven't seen anything different from him since 2003. So I think it's going to be better and we'll hit it ….View full article

Which late-round players have the potential to offer great production for little to no draft cost? John Ross should command a healthy chunk of targets as the Bengals' No. 2 WR (13:50), and Dante Pettis may have a shot to be San Francisco's best fantasy receiver (31:13), but can Brandon Marshall be a top-30 WR if he starts for Seattle (24:56)?

Urge your Members of Congress, especially those serving on the U.S. House and Senate Appropriations Committees, to support increased funding for Second Chance Act programs in the annual appropriations process. The bipartisan Second Chance Act provides resources to states, local governments and nonprofit organizations to improve outcomes for people returning to communities from prisons, jails and juvenile facilities.
Enacted in 2008, the Second Chance Act (P.L. 110-199) authorizes federal grants that assist states, counties and nonprofit organizations in developing and implementing programs to help formerly incarcerated individuals successfully reintegrate into the community after their release from correctional facilities. Administered through the Office of Justice Programs at the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ), Second Chance Act programs have helped numerous counties provide reentry services – like employment assistance, substance abuse and mental health treatment, housing, family-center programming and mentoring – to adults and juveniles returning to the community from prisons or jails.
Since its establishment in 2008, the Second Chance Act has funded more than 600 grants to state and local governments and nonprofit organizations, and more than a third of these grants have been awarded to counties. These investments in reentry programs have proven effective in helping individuals successfully reintegrate into their communities. Successful reintegration results in lower rates of recidivism, which improves public safety and provides significant savings to counties, who collectively spend $70 billion each year on criminal justice.
As Congress considers funding for a variety of federal programs and thousands of formerly incarcerated individuals return to their communities, the Second Chance Act should be prioritized in the annual appropriations process. Currently, the program is funded at $90 million under FY 2020 appropriations. While this small increase of $2.5 million is a win for counties, more funding is required to meet the challenges counties are facing in their efforts to address recidivism.
NACo supports an increase in funding for this pivotal program to at least the FY 2010 enacted level of $100 million in future annual appropriations processes. NACo members are encouraged to contact their members of Congress, and especially those on the House and Senate Appropriations Committees, to support this level of funding for the program in the FY 2021 appropriations process.
Counties spend more than $70 billion each year on criminal justice and more than $69 billion on health and human services.
According to the U.S. Bureau of Justice Statistics, there are more than 11 million individuals admitted to jails each year. Of that number, only about four percent of jail admissions result in prison sentences – in other words, 96 percent of jail detainees and inmates return directly to the community from jail.
The Second Chance Act improves the coordination of reentry services and policies at the state, local and tribal levels, and provides financial assistance for local programs that provide employment training, mentoring, substance abuse and mental health treatment and other family-centered services to formerly incarcerated individuals.
Since 2009, more than one out of three Second Chance Act awards has gone to county governments. Of the nearly $300 million that has been awarded to state, local, tribal and nonprofit reentry programs under the Second Chance Act, $95 million has gone directly to county governments.
The Second Chance Act is currently authorized and funded at $90 million under FY 2020 appropriations. Funding for the program should be increased to the FY 2010 level of $100 million in future appropriations bills.

What to include in your email marketing strategy
Email marketing is one of the most effective ways to market your brand. It gives you the opportunity to speak directly to your customers, promote customer loyalty and drive more sales.
Here's how to get started with your strategy.
Whether it's driving more sales, strengthening customer loyalty, improving the customer experience or gaining feedback on your business, email marketing can achieve it. Set your goals from the get-go so that you can work towards them and drive results.
Your audience
You can't run email marketing campaigns without an audience. If you're just starting out and don't yet have an email mailing list, you can begin to build your list by installing a pop up on your website, placing a call to action button on each page of your blog, asking your audience to subscribe via your social media channels or running surveys. These methods can also work if you'd like to build an existing mailing list.
Onboarding emails
Effective email marketing will take your user on a journey from the time they sign up to the time they convert. Onboarding refers to a series of one or more emails that are sent to your audience members before they are added to your regular ongoing email sends. Onboarding emails are particularly useful to build trust between you and your audience because they provide an opportunity for you to gently guide them through the customer journey. Perhaps you would like all of your new mailing list members within a particular location or demographic to receive a certain email upon sign up. Onboarding emails will allow you to do this as well as avoid sending emails that are too 'salesy' to your new members.
Audience preferences
Whether you have an email sign up widget on your website or a pop up, you can tailor your sign up fields to gather insights about your audience members. Let's say you run an eCommerce website that sells clothes and accessories. You might add the sign up field "What are you interested in?" and include the different categories of products you sell, from shoes to coats. This information will then allow you to tailor your emails to different people depending on what they are interested in. For instance, if you're having a sale on shoes, you can send a tailored eDM about the sale to all the people in your list who are interested in shoes.
Testing is the most important way to optimise your emailing marketing campaigns. Most email marketing programs allow you to split test your campaigns. This means that you can set a testing time frame and send one version of your eDM to a portion of your audience, and another version to a different portion of your audience. After the testing time frame is completed, the most popular version of your email will be sent to the remaining people in your list. You can test many aspects of your emails including subject line, time of day, sender name, and your email content – this includes your call-to-action, images, number of links, copy length and writing style.
Monitoring and reviewing
It's important to remember an email marketing campaign will never be perfect the first time round. Running effective email marketing campaigns comes down to how well you monitor the results of past campaigns so that you can optimise new campaigns to drive success. By monitoring and reviewing your campaigns you can learn valuable insights into what type of content people are likely to engage with and act on. By monitoring what is working well in your campaigns, you can tailor future campaigns to drive better results.
If you would like help running your email marketing campaigns, contact Green Door Co today.

All GP practices need to implement some form of active signposting to services as part of the GP Five Year Forward View. As a result, NHS England is rolling out Care Navigation.
Care Navigation is about choice, not triage. It aims to ensure patients receive the right care from the right person, first time
All patients will be asked by reception staff if they are happy to provide further information so that reception teams can help them get the right care from the right person, first time. Taking part in Care Navigation as a patient is optional and a patient can choose to refuse this with no issue.
CCG staff have been working on a task and finish group to develop in house training and support to identify new external services that could be included with care navigation.
The CCG team have engaged and listed to patients and have attended patient participation group meetings, developed patient friendly informative posters and all GP practices have recorded a telephone message explaining what care navigation is.
To date this has led to:
352 receptionists trained in 37 practices on the following:
- Online accredited training
- Customer service training
- Personal resilience training
Total care navigation activity 269,994 patients (15 months data)
- 26,747 GP hours saved
- 26,103 internal
- 644 external
- 8% care navigation declined (7,586 patients)
- 29% navigated to community pharmacy
Throughout the project the CCG have collated GP Practice staff feedback, this includes:
- Sense of Achievement
- Positive Impact
- Satisfying
- Improved Confidence
Patient Feedback has also been measured and comments include:
- "Very good service & helpful, polite reception staff"
- "I was not sure who I should see; the receptionist helped".
- "The chemist was excellent. I did not realise that they did so many things".

Design Problems in ThiNG
by Tony Garnock-Jones / @leastfixedpoint
At the moment, I've three main problems in the work I'm doing designing ThiNG: syntax, semantics, and macros. (Doesn't leave much, does it?) I'll cover the syntactic and semantic problems tonight — my thinking on macros is much too fuzzy to write down at the moment.
I'm leaning toward a concrete syntax that, like Smalltalk and Slate,
makes message-sending the only concise operation, leaving application
in particular as almost second-class. Since I expect message sending
to make up a much larger fraction of code than raw application, it
seems sensible to optimise for that case. Arranging things this way
means we can avoid a lot of
Message sends through the dynamic-dispatcher (arrows,
==>, read more-or-less as "desugars to"):
exp1, exp2 ==> (0: exp1 1: exp2) exp1 + exp2 ==> (0: exp1 #(+): exp2) exp1 selector ==> (#selector: exp1) selector: exp1 ==> (selector: exp1) "a problem case" exp1 selector: exp2 ==> (0: exp1 selector: exp2) "the same case"
In-place literal object construction:
[exp1, exp2] ==> [0: exp1 1: exp2] [exp1 + exp2] ==> [0: exp1 #(+): exp2] [exp1 selector] ==> [#selector: exp1] [selector: exp1] ==> [selector: exp1] "not a problem case" [exp1 selector: exp2] ==> [0: exp1 selector: exp2] "illegal because ambiguous"
Quoting (since quotation could be implemented as a macro, this will need to become more scheme-like in terms of tying in with macro (and perhaps regular application) syntax):
# stx
exp1 $ exp2 ==> (exp1 $ exp2)
The "data" equivalent of application (see also the "semantics" section below):
[exp1 $ exp2] ==> [exp1 $ exp2]
The "problem case" above is interesting: in Smalltalk and Slate,
selectors, for instance
#foo:bar:, are written
1 bar: 2 when they're used to send a message. The quoting
foo and
bar is implicit — those
tokens can't be interpreted as variable references or variable
bindings. In ThiNG, on the other hand, the identity function
[x:x], with the
x on the left-hand-side
of the colon a variable binding rather than a literal symbol to be
used in pattern matching. If I wanted to instead produce an object
that responded with some value when sent a literal
#x, I'd have to quote the
x in the
pattern thus:
When I'm sending a message through the dynamic-dispatcher, for
(foo: 1 bar: 2), what happens under the hood is
something like
currentContext $ [foo: 1 bar: 2]
at which point the problem becomes apparent. Both
bar occur as variable bindings - not as literal
symbols! What's intended is
currentContext $ [#foo: 1 #bar: 2]
On the other hand, if a user wrote
[zot: 3] instead
(zot: 3), then I'd expect no such implicit quoting to
Thinking about what Scheme might be like if it had more than the limited notion of pattern matching it has (see these two threads), we end up in a similar situation:
(lambda (x y) (+ x y)) ;; bind two variables (lambda ('x y) ...) ;; require first argument to be symbol x, ;; and bind second argument
I think the solution of having implicit quoting in the syntactic
context of message dispatch (round parens, rather than square
brackets) is acceptable, because it is very seldom that one will want
to send a message to the current context where the message
needs to bind a variable, and should one want to do that, it is still
possible using the explicit
currentContext $ myMessage
syntax above. (Caveat: I'm still uncertain about the best way of
getting hold of the current context.)
At present, matching the value
[#x: 1 #y: 2] against the
[] will succeed, since the empty pattern places
no requirements on its value. This is fine, except that it makes it
impossible to introduce pattern-matching based branching!
The problem is this: Assume the existence of the empty object, and objects constructed from other objects, and nothing else. No symbols, integers, or other literals. With these ingredients, we can produce values such as
[] [ [] : [] ] [ [] : [[]:[]] ] [ [[]:[]] : [] ] [ [[]:[]] : [[]:[]] ]
etc. The problem is that because there is no ordering between clauses
within an object/pattern definition, and because patterns within an
object must be nonoverlapping, and because
[] matches
anything (it's actually equivalent to discard!), we cannot use
pattern-matching to distinguish reliably between any two of the values
Take, for instance, the pattern
[ []: a [[]: []]: b ]
This can be equivalently written
[ [[]: []]: b []: a ]
Now, when applied to a value
[], obviously only the
clause resulting in
a will match, since the guard on
b clause places requirements on the value that it
cannot satisfy. When applied to
[[]: []], however, we
have a problem, since both guards match
[], as a pattern, places no requirements on its
argument at all!
When all we have is the empty object and objects constructed from it, we cannot define non-overlapping patterns. We can fix this in (at least) two ways: we can let clauses within an object be ordered, trying to match the leftmost first, for instance, or we can introduce some other kind of distinction that pattern-matching can get a grip on. I want to keep clauses unordered, for reasons involving method dispatch that I've not fully worked out yet, which leaves the introduction of a further distinction.
Fortunately, there is one piece of aggregate syntax that we need for
other purposes, which can be used here without confusion: the syntax
for application (more generally, without interpretation, simply syntax
for pairs, analogous to Scheme's
(x . y)). When
interpreted as code, it means application; when interpreted as data,
I'm experimenting with the idea of making it mean extension. Assume,
for the moment, that infix
$ is the concrete syntax for
application. Then
a $ b means, if interpreted as code,
"send the contents of variable
b as a message to the
receiver denoted by variable
a"; and if interpreted as
data, (loosely) "extend
a with the clauses
b, searching
a only if a search
b fails".
We can then use pattern-matching to distinguish between
([] $ []) $ [] "left-heavy, a.k.a. left" [] $ ([] $ []) "right-heavy, a.k.a. right"
Now that we have a distinction we can make, we can define structures akin to booleans, natural numbers, characters, and symbols: all the literals we need for working with program representations.
(Pseudocode - I still need to work out how to integrate proper macros) Define F = ([]$[])$[] Define T = []$([]$[]) Define Nil = F Define Cons(a, b) = [ T: a F: b ] Define Zero = Nil (= F) Define X * 2 + Y = Cons(Y, X), where X is a number and Y is either T for a one-bit, or F for a zero-bit thus 5 = Cons(T, Cons(F, Cons(T, Nil))) and 2 = Cons(F, Cons(T, Nil)) = [ T:F F:[ T:T F:F ] ] = [ ([]$([]$[])):(([]$[])$[]) (([]$[])$[]):[ ([]$([]$[])):([]$([]$[])) (([]$[])$[]):(([]$[])$[]) ] ] Define a unicode character to be its codepoint as a number Define a symbol to be a list of characters Thus: #x = Cons('x', Nil) = Cons(120, Nil) = Cons(Cons(F, Cons(F, Cons(F, Cons(T, Cons(T, Cons(T, Cons(T, Nil))))))), Nil) (etc.)
The naive encoding given above isn't one that would be useful in a
real implementation. For a start, it'd be very inefficient, so
meta-level objects would probably be used directly instead; and also,
even if that weren't the case, a more realistic encoding would involve
higher-level constructs, and wouldn't be built so directly on
primitive patterns of
$. For instance, symbols might be
represented as a stream of characters, with
[#first: 'x'
#rest: #nil], instead of the very low-level markers used
above. (Although that particular choice of encoding opens up another
can of worms: recursive data-structures!)
Note that I'm still working out the precise meaning of
when interpreted as extension: for instance, when should the extension
be visible as an extension, and when should it fade into the
background, acting as if the compound object it produces is a simple

by Ferenc Laczó
During the early years of post-communism in Hungary, social history emerged as perhaps the most innovative subfield of historical studies.[i] In more recent years, Hungarian társadalomtörténet has also proven to be a peculiarly inclusive pursuit that partially incorporated – rather than being largely replaced by – new cultural historical trends.[ii] In the course of these years, University of Szeged-based historian Béla Tomka has not only established himself as one of the key representatives of this flourishing subfield but has – rather unlike highly esteemed local colleagues of his such as Gábor Gyáni, György Kövér, or Tibor Valuch – gradually broadened his horizons way beyond the borders of his country of origin.[iii] The release of A Social History of Twentieth-Century Europe is doubtlessly the most significant result of Tomka's sustained efforts to systematically compare social historical trends in an all-European frame that, however, consciously refrains from covering the territories of the former Soviet Union. Drawing on a plethora of studies in diverse fields beyond the more narrow confines of historiography such as demography, political science, economics and, above all, sociology, Béla Tomka's overview amounts to no less than the major single-author social history of the continent's past century.[iv]
Consisting of a brief introduction, eight extended thematic chapters and a substantial conclusion, A Social History of Twentieth-Century Europe offers an impressive amount of quantitative evidence on long-term general trends as well as regional and country specifics. The book aims to cover all major aspects of social life – such as population; families and households; stratification and mobility; welfare states; work, leisure and consumption; politics and society; urbanization; education, religion and culture – and inquiries into the major causes and determinants of change in all these areas. What is more, A Social History of Twentieth-Century Europe provides summary presentations and brief assessments of various foundational theories in the study of each. However, the author does so without proposing a strong central thesis or articulating a single grand narrative – Tomka may recurrently draw on certain elements of modernization theory but clearly does not aim to depict social transformation as linear or irreversible. His choice of a rather fragmented line of argumentation is essentially meant to enable the presentation of more substantial information on all his various topics.
Even if A Social History of Twentieth-Century Europe, by and large, has the character of a textbook, in several respects it may nonetheless be described as a pioneering achievement. Tomka provides an unprecedented comparative treatment of all major European regions – beyond the specifics of Western Europe, including the rather unique patterns of Scandinavia, East Central Europe, Southern Europe, and Southeast Europe all receive sustained attention here. At the very same time, Tomka highlights the notable internal diversity of each of these regions, offering especially thorough analyses of Western Europe – by far the most populous and influential of his European regions – in this regard.
A Social History of Twentieth-Century Europe thus constitutes an important extension of – and partly also serves as a corrective to – works such as Hartmut Kaelble's A Social History of Western Europe, 1880-1980 and Sozialgeschichte Europas: 1945 bis zur Gegenwart, Goran Therborn's European Modernity: The Trajectory of European Societies, 1945-2000 and Beyond or Colin Crouch's Social Change in Western Europe.[v] One of its greatest merits indeed is that, in full accordance with its author's expertise in the social history of East Central Europe and his native Hungary in particular, it bridges the East-West divide without thereby underestimating regional specificities, let alone attempting to forcibly impose a convergence narrative on the social historical patterns of the two halves of the continent. A crucial instance of such a differentiated approach is that – even as the mid-century is identified as a true watershed in numerous areas – Tomka presents communist takeovers as resulting in marked patterns of East European divergence. Contesting the interpretation of United Kingdom-based Swedish sociologist Goran Therborn in particular, A Social History of Twentieth-Century Europe may thus also be seen as a contribution to post-communist attempts at revising inherited historical understandings especially regarding the supposedly notable successes of communist-era modernization.
More generally, considerations on the processes that have given rise to European unity and disunity in the past as well as identification of key characteristics of contemporary European society and its future perspectives lie very much at the heart of Béla Tomka's endeavour. Even if the book shows how the early postwar processes of convergence in Western and even Southern European societies came to a halt during the 1970s and may even have been replaced by rather divergent trends in a number of areas since, Tomka ultimately maintains that Europe displays stronger patterns of cultural and social coherence than could be expected in the case of an entity with such a complicated geographical structure and high levels of ethnic diversity. In his conclusion, the author portrays the extensive welfare states, the rather moderate levels of social inequalities, the distinct quality of urban life as well as the dominant patterns of family formation as the most important distinguishing characteristics of European societies in a global frame.
Whereas A Social History of Twentieth-Century Europe does a great service by synthesizing an immense amount of primarily statistical data in an accessible manner, a more reflexive approach to such sources, including a more thorough consideration on their constructed nature, might have further refined some of its central arguments. The author's clear preference for comparable statistical data throughout the book also implies that mentalities and values – or historical agency, for that matter – receive no more than marginal treatment. Even when recent topics in cultural history – such as, for example, the use of urban spaces or the history of tourism – are addressed, their discussion still relies, above all, on quantitative indicators.
The approach of A Social History of Twentieth-Century Europe thus closely resembles that of social history classics: Indeed, Béla Tomka explicitly identifies the study of the characteristics and relations of various social groups or classes and institutions as the central tasks of social history. His unique synthesis thus not only qualifies as a towering achievement of European social history writing but is also a major – and perhaps the ultimate, in both senses of the word – synthesis based on a profoundly objectivist and therefore quintessentially modern conception of society.

Black Panther Artist: Emory Douglas
Emory Douglas joined the Panther Party in 1967 and became its Minister of Culture. His confrontational graphics defined the party's agenda and served as front and back covers for The Black Panther, the party's official tabloid. Throughout the late sixties, tens of thousands of his posters were wheat-pasted on walls from California to New York. Douglas developed a crude and exaggerated cartoon style that excoriated and humiliated racist politicians, landlords, capitalists, and police, portraying them as de-humanized pigs. In fact his inflammatory graphics so popularized the epithet of "pig", that the insult became a lasting part of the American lexicon.
In July 2004, the Sargent Johnson Gallery in San Francisco mounted a major exhibit of Douglas' artworks called A Retrospective on the Black Panther Party & the Art of Emory Douglas. Alden Kimbrough, the archivist who provided historic prints to the exhibit, said this about the show, "Only a small percentage of art actually reflects real social and political issues -even less ever gain acceptance by the dominant art culture which determines critical and public interpretations of art, especially by black artists.
The art of Emory Douglas stresses themes of resistance, struggle against racism, oppression and exploitation, as well as the joys that life offers and the richness of a people's cultural heritage and history." The It's About Time Committee is a group of Panther sympathizers and alumni who promote the legacy of the Black Panther Party (BPP). They maintain a website where you can find a gallery of Douglas' works, plus historic texts.

Trump Destroys Elites' Assumptions: Autopsy of the 2012 'GOP Autopsy'
We learned that the reactionary and rabid "Never Trump" movement might have been morally defensible in some hearts, but was an enormous strategic blunder.
Nobody looks sillier this morning than the turncoats who claimed to care about the federal judiciary and about reversing the damage and lawlessness the Left has caused, yet refused to vote for Trump. Except maybe Sally Bradshaw.
The other winner last night was conservative New Media.
Never again should anyone in the Republican party take the New York Times seriously.
Trump gave them the finger -- and won. Compare this with four years ago, when Mitt Romney wouldn't even appear on conservative talk radio.
Victory comes with an energized and polarized base, not by appealing to the legacy dead-tree media.
Steve Bannon: How delicious it was to see him on stage last night, needing a shave. I can remember the preposterous wailing about Bannon being appointed to the Trump campaign over the summer. In nearly every corner it was portrayed as a catastrophe. I knew it was masterful. Lots of Trump staff contributed to this win, but Bannon brought an understanding of the new media environment, the modern media cycle, and the power of a slicing story to a messaging campaign. Bannon and others in the New Media have vowed to replace the importance of outlets like the New York Times.
As Andrew Brietbart told me, he sought to destroy them. Last night was a giant leap toward their irrelevance, especially in Republican politics.

There's a suitably lavish look to the design in Age of the Gods: Mighty Midas. The setting is an ornate room in a palace. On the reels you'll see grapes, goblets, apples, roses and a chicken dinner. They're joined by 5 higher value character symbols. The best of these is Midas himself who will get you a payout of 12.5 times your stake if you land 5 on 1 of the game's 40 paylines.
On any spin you could see a Midas Touch symbol hit on reels 3, 4 or 5. This turns the symbol on the reel directly to its left to turn into a golden wild. A symbol drop then follows and a new payout calculation is made. If a Midas Touch symbol points to a Golden Wild, it adds a multiplier to turn it into a 2x wild. If a Midas Touch points at a 2x Golden Wild, the multiplier increases to 3x. This is called the Midas Multipliers feature.
Land the Pentagram scatter on reels 1 and 5 on the same spin and you'll trigger the following bonus features:
- Emerald Bonus feature - the scatter from reel 1 will reveal a cash value. The scatter on reel 5 then awards a multiplier which is then applied to your cash value to give an overall payout.
- Ruby Spins feature - this free spins round comes gives you 7 free spins with multiplier wilds. The value of those multipliers is on show on the tower to the right of the reels. If the Midas Touch points to a multiplier wild, the multipliers are combined and can top 30x!
- Amber Spins feature – with 5 free spins on offer, 1 symbol is chosen at random on each free spin to become a Golden Wild. Multipliers can reach up to 3x is this round.
- Sapphire Spins feature –wilds are central to the action here. You'll receive 5 free spins. On the first, 55 wilds are added to reel 2. One the second, 40 wilds are added to reel 3 with 60 wilds added to reel 4 on the third. All added wilds will remain on their strips for any free spins you have left.
- Amethyst Spins feature – with 3 free spins on offer, the Midas Touch symbols are double stacked which offers the potential for plenty of extra wilds and multipliers.
As part of the Age of the Gods Jackpot Network, you'll also have a shot at landing a progressive prize here. The round can hit at any time. Pick from the coins to see which jackpot is awarded.
In the Greek myth, Midas' touch was a curse. It can be a real blessing in this slot game though. Those extra wilds can really get things moving, especially when you trigger the free spin rounds. There's up to 8,650 times your stake on offer from each Ruby Spin with the potential 30x multiplier!
The design is as impressive as usual for an Age of the Gods slot game. The range of features really stand out here though. If you like the Greek myth and legend theme, then Age of the Gods: Mighty Midas is a must play. I would also suggest you try Age of the Gods which is volatile and has lots of free spins features.
