You'll probably remember the play The Crucible from your high school literature class. It's the story of the witch hunts in Salem Massachusetts. It's a pretty good play, and take you into a fascinating and terrifying territory of human psychology and drama because it exposes the witch hunt-scapegoating mechanism. Within an enclosed religious community a little girl lies

Broken This is the launching point of the journey. Don fuses the essence of powerful theatre with mystery entertainment to open your eyes and ears to a new way to approach your performances. "Most mentalists know Don Theo knocked it out of the ballpark with his introductory book Teardrop. However, Theo's 'Broken' makes his first treatise now seem like a bunt. 'Broken' is a beautiful, artistic work that forces the actor in each mentalist to rise to the surface and make some very necessary waves within our art." - Mick Ayres Svenvelope The star of the show, this jawdropping three phase routine has been blowing minds for a couple of years now in performances by Don and some of his closest friends. The routine culminates in a moment that will have your guests looking for the time machine they must have just been thrust from. Eudemania Several people key in random numbers and total them on a borrowed cell phone calculator. Another guest selects a time at random. For example, the total of the freely selected numbers is 1,149. The randomly selected time is 11:49. Phantom Phone Your guest freely thinks of a word. After failing to get the word, your cell phone, which has been sitting on the table the entire time, starts to ring. The guest is told that the call is probably for him/her. When they pick it up, the caller ID reveals the word they were merely thinking of. "Broken is an excellently written collection of powerful mental routines that I am sure will find a place in the repertoires of many. Don Theo has obviously put a good deal of thought into the development of practical material and I highly recommend this wonderful book." - Bob Cassidy Intermezzo Inspiring tales of amazing happenstances from the trenches and how you can use that knowledge to create reputation-making moments. Primo Wishin' A no gimmick, real deck, amazingly clean approach to the Premonition effect. McFly A routine using any deck at any time, shuffled freely by a guest. A variation on the ACAAN effect that will also guide your audience on an emotional journey through time. Speed Trap A big secret. This is a treatise on how to make almost any effect live much stronger forever in the minds of your audience. Capriccio For the sake of full disclosure, this is a half-way "Performance Only" piece but it is included to inspire you in structuring your effects. Though it is mostly "Performance Only" many readers will have the resources already to perform the effect just as explained. Zoran: Zentalist A charming parable sneaks up on you by teaching you how to perform an otherworldly effect. Possibly more important than anything else in the ebook. "Don has created a series of effects that will have a big impact on your thinking and performance. His ability to notice the invisible details that make the moment what it is constantly impresses me, and his presentations are full of depth, connection with the participant and meaning. If you are an experienced performer you will enjoy the thinking, the writing, and you will surely be inspired one way or another. For the less experienced performer, prepare to have your mind blown, fried, toasted, then re-fried and thrown on a grill. You will learn so much from this. Especially from the last piece, 'Zoran: Zentalism', which is quite frankly, a work of genius. This is wonderful, and Don's personality shines throughout. It has made me want to start creating new pieces again, which is really saying something. But I still don't see why he has given up skateboarding..." - Thom Bleasdale 1st edition 2010; 94 pages. word count: 25718 which is equivalent to 102 standard pages of text

Two months ago we looked at what taglines are, and what they're meant to achieve. I also encouraged you to try your hand at creating your own. Last month we looked at some author taglines that work well. This month, I want to round off this theme by looking at a few taglines that don't work, and why. AT&T had a catchy tagline: Reach Out and Touch Someone. As an inspirational writer who has a lot of contact with people going through cancer treatment, I often encourage people to touch their friends and family if it is appropriate. By touch, I mean to reach out and hold a hand, or give a hug, to show them some love and care. So that seemed a good tagline. That's before I looked up AT&T and discovered they are a mobile network company. Hmm. Where I understand what they're trying to say (I think) the idea of someone reaching out and touching me from my cell phone kind of gives me the creeps! This doesn't say what it's meant to say. Electrolux marketed vacuum cleaners in the United Kingdom with the tagline, Nothing sucks like an Electrolux. That is a great recommendation for a vacuum cleaner or course, but it sure sucks as a promotion. Incidentally, although this was regarded by many as a huge blunder, the company claims this was a deliberate effort to gain attention. It worked! So, is this a good tagline or a bad one? If you know Electrolux is a vacuum cleaner, it's a clever line. But if you don't? I know Electrolux is a well-known brand, but it is just possible there are some people out there in our global village who don't know. And that sucks! This tagline has a double meaning. Kentucky Fried Chicken's finger-lickin' good is a well-known tagline, but they need to be careful if they translate it into Chinese. It then becomes "We'll Eat Your Fingers Off!" So it works well for its American market, but if it's used globally, and of course KFC is pretty world-wide now, it could cause some concern. A well-known author uses the term HEA in her tagline. I read a comment by her on a blog recently where she says, "People would have to know what HEA stands for of course, but I’d assume most romance writers do." Well, as a matter of fact I didn't. But then, I'm not a romance writer. So I Googled the term. I found it could mean: Higher Education Act Higher Education Authority Hypospadias and Epispadias Association Household Economy Assessment High Energy Astrophysics Happily Ever After and another 40-odd possibilities. Ahh wait! She assumes most romance writers know what HEA stands for, so I'm guessing it's Happily Ever After. It's not her fault I didn't know that's what she meant, but then surely she wants her tagline to reach out and appeal to more than just romance writers? Maybe not. Then we have the car company that says We put people in front of cars. Really? the airline that says, We get you there. Umm. That's probably a good thing. But they don't say how! It doesn't enthuse me to use their service. the spice that says it's Distilled in hell. As a Christian I would be apprehensive of sprinkling this on my food! I could give many more examples but they're all there on the World Wide Web. You only need to Google "Bad taglines." The Internet has dozens of them. It's not my intention to belittle the people who came up with these taglines. They're all pretty clever when you know what they mean. But what have we learned from these examples? Don't rush your decision. We need to consider the different cultures we're writing for, and think of whether readers in another land will understand our meaning. Be cautious of a clever play on words. The Upper Room, a devotional magazine that is published in over 40 languages, refuses to use any idioms that would not make sense to other cultures. That is a challenge; but then we're writers. We're up to challenges. Make sure it gives the message you want it to. No creepy hands coming out of the mobile! Or people standing in front of cars! Avoid initials or abbreviations unless we are only using our tagline "in house," with a group of people that will know what we're talking about. Hmm. Suddenly my tagline, The Write to Inspire doesn't seem so clever. It is of course a play on words: The Right to Inspire. Back to the drawing board! How about you? Do you have any more advice? Points we should beware of when we come up with that startling, all-important, tagline that's going to shoot us up the charts of fame?

This book offers a pluralistic vision of the way economists have dealt with the question of power in society over the last two centuries. Economists' ideas about power are examined from political, theoretical and policy-making points of view, with additional discussion of the active participation of economists in the management of power.The book is organized into four main conceptions of power relations: i) Power as embedded in political institutions; ii) Power as emerging from the asymmetric relations caused by the unequal distribution of income and wealth; iii) Power as associated to the monopolistic or oligopolistic position held by some firms in the market; and iv) Power as the management of economic policies by the state.Mosca brings together contributions from a range of scholars to analyse how economists have considered the role of power, putting the discussion into a much needed historical context.
