Falsifiability and physics
April 23, 2019 | Matthew R. Francis
Can a theory that isn't completely testable still be useful to physics? What determines if an idea is legitimately scientific or not? This question has been debated by philosophers and historians of science, working scientists, and lawyers in courts of law. That's because it's not merely an abstract notion: What makes something scientific or not determines if it should be taught in classrooms or supported by government grant money.

A really big shew, for sure.
With the tons of WAA EdCom stuff going on, and the tremendous opportunities to just run into people in the halls and have hour long spontaneous "shootouts" (thanks for your help with "The Cluelessness of Crowds), it can be difficult to get to all the sessions I want to see.
Still, I always try to catch sessions outside of the mainstream that look interesting. Often nobody comments on these overlooked sessions, so I like to bring them to the surface.
The presentation by Egan van Doorn of the Dutch Automobile Association (ANWB) called Connecting Web Analytics with Decades of Marketing Metrics was such a session.
Here, the beauty was in the simplicity and purity of the approach. Classic Database Marketing – the targeting, the pacing. No breathless monthly or weekly blasting of the same message to every customer. No, to each customer the right message at the right time.
ANWB works with the understanding the calendar doesn't matter nearly as much as the customer's individual behavior. When the customer is ready, they say so. It's all about Pull – gently bringing them to you, not beating them over the head. Context, relevance; what they want, when they want it, while they are interested in it. Like Search, right?
Web analytics folks often view multi-channel ideas as too complicated, and they're really not – if you are using the right methodology and if you have some discipline. Apparently, ANWB has both.
From a Marketing perspective, ANWB pays close attention primarily to high value online events. Forget page views, visits, etc. What they want to know is this: what action was taken for which we have a related product? They store these events in the customer record, and then play out the online / offline Marketing stream accordingly. If they can reach them online, that's obviously cheaper. If they decide to go offline (in the mail) they have their timing issues down and they make it happen.
Very efficient, highly productive. Huge increases in response rates, even offline when using online behavior to trigger the Marketing event. Classic Database Marketing. And there's a reason they are so good at this – they've been doing the same thing offline forever.
If you can make money doing this offline, you can make an absolute pile of money doing it online because the Marketing is so much cheaper. The problem is, most online folks don't have access to that Database Marketing background, the understanding of how to optimize remote relationships. So instead of playing it as Database Marketing, they play it like Media (Push) Marketing. And they get unremarkable results.
How simple is it to do multi-channel right?
Here's an example, courtesy of ANWB. Customer comes to the web site. Customer searches for and finds info for "bike and hike" trails. When this happens, customer is shown banners offering a "Bike and Hike Trails of the Netherlands" book during the rest of the visit. Customer maybe buys the book.
Or not. If they don't, and waiting a reasonable amount of time for the sale to occur online, ANWB goes in the mail with an offer on the book, and then later on, a modified offer in the mail if there is no response. Customers buy scads of these books. Enormous ROI, both online and offline.
Then repeat this scenario with every product line – what is the trigger event, what is the timing? Man, that's a beautiful business they've got going there. Just printing money.
They do have one advantage – as a membership org, each customer has a unique ID, offline and online. This was raised as an "unfair advantage" in terms of their success. Disagree.
Megan Burns of Forrester said as much in the 2nd half of the presentation. The reason people don't usually factorize to do this kind of stuff is they can't project the ROI, they don't know what they would do with a unified view of the customer to generate incremental profit. So they can't justify spending the money to make it happen.
This is really the same Push versus Pull issue I mentioned before – as long as you batch and blast, as long as you keep using the offline Push model, there's no point in understanding any of this multi-channel stuff. When you get ready to accept that the behavior of the customer is your key to relevance, and test through a couple of scenarios (as all offline DB Marketers have done), the ROI of the offline / online join becomes self-evident and justifies the spend to set up for it.
Wait a minute, you say – there's no reason anyone would want to log into our web site. Oh. But now you are into Marketing Strategy. Not the same issue.
Why won't they log in? Let's say you don't think you can get people to "log in" so you can create a database match. Here's the real question – have you conceived an experience for your web site that is worth a log in? If the experience is worth it, people will log in, and you will have a database match.
That's Marketing, my friends. It's not just about the "Push" MarCom stuff. It's the Strategy, the whole picture that creates the Pull that is so incredibly powerful.
This is what makes interactive different.
Let's assume you think I am wrong, that what I'm saying couldn't possibly be true. After all, how could so many people get interactive wrong? Wisdom of Crowds, right? After all, look at all the folks who got it so right in 2000 (not). THAT was a Crowd. This Jim Novo, he's just pushing the ideas in his book.
OK, fair enough. Here's another voice that has been added to mine. More on Akin's book in the future – I'm only 1/2 through!
Thanks for sharing about that session at emetrics Jim! I missed Megan's and Egan's session that day (shame on me for leaving early).
Very nice re-targeting example! Will have to remember that.
I also really liked another example that John Squire shared at the NCDM conference last year. A client of his, some fisher supplies catalog retailer, added a cover letter to their catalog mailings. That cover letter apparently highlights relevant sections in the catalog to each recipient. According to John, the content of the letter is personalized based on past online click behavior. Pretty cool I thought! Especially, considering that most email marketers don't even personalize future emails based on past site behavior!
Yours are some large shoe steps to follow for the idea of integrating online and offline data + marketing methods! Thanks for reading the multi-channel book!
That's a spectacular example, for sure. Office Depot does that with the catalogs they send me, there are always special offers based on past online purchase behavior.
What I can't figure out is why they send me big, heavy, expensive catalogs in the first place, since I never purchase from them and they don't influence my purchase behavior – I just throw them out. I suspect (largely based on our friend Kevin Hillstrom's work) that a faulty matchback – no control groups used – is to blame.
What does influence my behavior somewhat is the direct mail pieces Office Depot sends like clockwork – I can always expect another discount right on time. They should build some variability into that program, methinks – they're giving up margin dollars they don't really need to give up on these cyclical, repetitive puchases of office supplies.


I remember sitting down on my bed in my little basement studio apartment one evening in 2007 or thereabouts and penning this sweet little song about being able to lean on someone through life's ups and downs (in my case, I was talking to God). Probably listening to some Waterdeep and Sara Groves at the time. Enjoy "Trust"!

10 Unusual Historical Museums to Visit in London
From comic books to public surgeries: these weird and wonderful London museums take visitors on a tour through the strange, the niche and even the macabre.
Harry Sherrin
London is undoubtedly home to some of the world's most revered and celebrated museums, from the British Museum to the Imperial War Museum.
But the city also houses a whole range of stranger institutions. At the Ragged School Museum in Mile End, for example, visitors can uncover the history of teaching in the Victorian era. And in Balham's Sewing Machine Museum, some 600 sewing machines are on display, painting a vivid picture of the device's changing form and use through time.
From quirky toys to historical hand fans, here are 10 of London's most odd and unusual museums.

1. Old Operating Theatre Museum, Southwark
In the attic of St Thomas' Church in Southwark, London, sits the oldest operating theatre in the city, dating back to 1822. It's one of the Old Operating Theatre Museum's key exhibits, and it attempts to transport visitors back to the gruesome days of 19th-century medicine.
Displays at the Old Operating Theatre Museum include barbaric surgical instruments, restraints for pinning patients to the operating table and even preserved human organs. It's an uncompromising museum, housing everything from the grotesque to the bizarre, but an insightful one, artfully recreating the harsh reality of medicine in the Victorian era.

2. Pollock's Toy Museum, Fitzrovia
Pollock's Toy Museum is a quirky little collection of historic toys, dolls and games, housed in a pair of central London townhouses. Among the artefacts on display are old board games, mechanical toys and curious puppets and figurines.
Among the rarest items at Pollock's Toy Museum are an ancient Egyptian toy mouse dating back to c. 2000 BC and the world's oldest teddy bear, Eric, which was made in 1904. The author Robert Louis Stevenson once wrote of the museum, "if you love art, folly or the bright eyes of children, speed to Pollock's."

3. Grant Museum of Zoology, Bloomsbury
With displays of mammal skulls, preserved animals and even dissected heads, the Grant Museum of Zoology isn't one for the squeamish. Perhaps the site's most famed exhibit is a collection of 18 moles, fixed in a glass case of formaldehyde. The moles even have a dedicated Twitter account.
The Grant Museum of Zoology also boasts a collection of more than 1,000 rare stuffed animal species, including a Tasmanian tiger and even a quagga, which is an extinct mammal related to the zebra.

4. Clink Prison Museum, Southwark
The Clink Museum is housed in a former Southwark prison dating back to 1144. Much of the prison was rebuilt in the 14th and 15th centuries, when it earned the name 'Clink'. Housed in the Bankside area, once a notorious red-light district, the Clink has no doubt seen more than its fair share of violence, scandal and criminality.
Visitors to the Clink Prison Museum can expect to be taken on a journey through the history of prison life in England. Exhibits include gruesome torture and restraining devices used by prison workers, weapons crafted by inmates and vivid recreations of life at the Clink.

5. The Cartoon Museum, Fitrovia
London's Cartoon Museum boasts a comprehensive collection of comic books, original artworks and related memorabilia. Their exhibits include more than 8,000 books and 6,000 pieces of art, with fan favourites such as Billy Whizz and Dennis the Menace on display.
The Cartoon Museum's collections span several centuries of cartoon creation, from the 1700s through to the golden age of cartoons and comic books in the 20th century.
6. Magic Circle Museum, Euston
The Magic Circle is a renowned – and characteristically mysterious – society for magicians. And now, interested parties can dive into the history of the secretive organisation at London's Magic Circle Museum.
Among the institution's collections are a pair of handcuffs used by famed escape artist Harry Houdini and an iconic fez worn by British comedian and magician Tommy Cooper. Be sure to book ahead, though: tours are by appointment only.

7. Sewing Machine Museum, Balham
The London Sewing Machine Museum offers a comprehensive overview of the history of sewing and haberdashery. Among the artefacts on display are a device purchased by Queen Victoria, the first-ever Singer sewing machine and a device sent to London from the US for the Great Exhibition of 1851.
In total, the museum holds over 600 historic sewing machines. The site is open on the first Saturday of each month.

8. Ragged School Museum, Mile End
Visitors to the Ragged School Museum in London's East End can discover the fascinating history of 19th-century British education and beyond. The site allows guests to explore a reconstructed Victorian classroom and pore over hundreds of educational artefacts.
Among the exhibits on display at the Ragged School Museum are chalkboards, desks and ink bottles, all of which paint a vivid picture of historic learning establishments. On certain dates of the year, the museum hosts 'open house' sessions, where actors and guides don historic garbs and host interactive lessons and exhibits.
A recent study published in the science journal Nature tracked the emotional tone of books and newspapers over the past 200 years and suggested that the British were happier in the 19th century. We got Hannah Woods on the pod pronto to talk us through the reality of life in the 19th century.

9. The Museum of Brands, Packaging and Advertising, Notting Hill
The Notting Hill Museum of Brands is a sort of shrine to logos, packaging and material goods from throughout history. The museum houses items from the Victorian era right through to the present day, taking visitors on a nostalgic journey through the history of advertising in Britain and beyond.
The Museum of Brands benefits from the vast Robert Opie Collection of some 12,000 artefacts, and as such its exhibits are comprehensive and wide-ranging. Among the objects on display are OXO cubes dating back to World War One, KitKat bars from the time of the Great Depression and various early Coca-Cola bottles.
Image Credit: The Fan Museum
10. Fan Museum, Greenwich
Opened in 1991 in the Greenwich World Heritage Site, The Fan Museum is the world's first museum dedicated to the history of hand fans. With over 5,000 fans on display – the oldest dating back to the 11th century – the museum's extensive collection is fascinating.
A 'secret' Japanese garden can also be viewed from the museum's stunning orangery tea room, and visitors can also take a stroll around the beautifully restored Grade II-listed buildings within which the museum sits.

I'm reading through Proverbs this month. Did you realize there are 31 Proverbs, and 30-31 days in each month. One Proverb for each day! Pretty neat, huh!?
Won't you travel this road with me and really put each verse into your heart, mind and let's decide together to live it out. These are some important instructions God is giving us through Proverbs. I think if everyone really tried to "live out" each verse personally – the world would be a much happier place!
You are God's amazing child! You can call him DADDY! (Abba, Father). Listen to what he's got to say to you personally.
He's got some pretty cool plans for your life! He will guide you through each day and get you to your destination! Don't walk away from what God teaches you each day. (it's always good stuff!) Let what you're learning get into your heart!
Wisdom is the most important thing to achieve. Get good judgment too! You will be exalted and have honor and a beautiful crown too!
God will teach you wisdom, and make your paths straight. Guard his instructions, live a life guided by wisdom – and you won't stumble or fall and you'll lead a fulfilled life.
Don't follow what the wicked do – avoid their haunts – turn away from them – evil has a purpose – to do wrong – they want you to stumble.
If you are righteous – you will shine bright as the dawn. The wicked live in darkness – they don't have any idea of their stumbling.
Pay attention to what God says to you – listen carefully and keep focused on God's Word. Let these words be life affirming words that go deep within your heart, because it offers you LIFE and radiant health – to all who discover the meaning.
Stay away from perverse talk and corrupt speech. Keep focused on the straight path ahead that is before you – don't get side tracked – stay far from evil.
Remember God's purpose – and seek Him always!
Let 's pray – Lord, Daddy, thank you that I can crawl unto your lap, safe and secure. I trust you Lord, there is no one like you. You know my every thought and need. My desire is to wear a beautiful crown of glorious wisdom, that only you can offer. I pray that today, I will focus on listening to your still small voice, and heed to what you say.

Last June 30, FC Barcelona announced its agreement with the leading household appliance brand, which has become a global partner for the next four seasons. The deal involves the Beko logo appearing on the first team shirtsleeve, and also on the back of the training kit.
And today Tuesday, as Luis Enrique held his first training session, the Turkish brand's name could be seen on the training shirts, which this season are in a predominantly pink design.
The shirt logo symbolises the union between two world leaders in their respective markets, and who are planning to collaborate for the mutual good of their strategic objectives in terms of marketing and corporate social responsibility.


Broadmeadows Luigi has an impeccable pedigree and is a wonderful example of line breeding. His pedigree contains Supreme Champions over many generations including Tanhill Rumpus, Broadmeadows Cannon, Broadmeadows Tansy and Broadmeadows Ainsi. Even his Great Grandsire Tanhill Monopol and his Great Great Dam Lavande were both Royal Show Champions. He was a full brother to Broadmeadows Jiji and Broadmeadows Idylle (who was sold for 21,000 guineas in 1995).

Introducing the Skullbucket© Cap Style Aluminum hard hat. This hard hat has been tested and meets ANSI Z89.1-2014 standards for a Type 1 Class C hard hat. Only the Authentic SkullBucket Hard Hat has been tested for ANSI Z89.1-2014 Type 1 Class C Standards. Each Skullbucket© hard hat is made from an aerospace aluminum material with key reinforced areas. This makes the aluminum hard hat very comfortable, lightweight and durable. In addition, each hat comes with the Skullbucket© SB logo embossed into the metal of the hat. Only the original Skullbucket© hat comes with the embossed logo. Finally, the SB logo can be worn facing forward or backwards as desired.
The Aluminum hats are the helmet of choice for work in demolition, logging, construction, oil and gas; as well as, many other high risk industries. This hard hat also comes with a 4 point suspension with sweatband. They are modeled after the old metal style hard hats and meet today's ANSI standards.
This hat fulfills ANSI Z89.1-2014 Standards.
The Cap Style design offers additional coverage.
Hard hat is great, but ratchet system insert is made for a big head. I wear a size 7 fitted hat and this hard hat is too big. Ratchet system fits larger size head.
Click the button below to add the SkullBucket Aluminum Cap Style Hard Hats with Ratchet Suspensions - Silver to your wish list.


When you're sick, pray to Jesus to ask why.
Did you know that Jesus didn't die on a cross? He was replaced by his brother Isukiri, and moved to Japan to be a rice farmer. Who knew?
Here are a couple of other things I bet you didn't know about him.
2. If you are sick, it really is just Jesus spanking you.
3. He turns up in the weirdest places!

La Roussette d'Amboine (Pteropus chrysoproctus) est une espèce de chauve-souris de la famille des Pteropodidae. On la trouve dans les forêts en dessous de  d'altitude) des îles de Céram (dont dans le parc national de Manusela), Buru et Ambon qui font partie de l'archipel des Moluques à l'est de l'Indonésie. Une autre espèce, Pteropus argentatus, était jusqu'à récemment considérée comme faisant partie de la même espèce. Son habitat a une superficie de moins de  et est en baisse en raison de l'exploitation forestière. Pour cette raison, et à cause de la chasse par la population locale, ces espèces sont considérées comme quasi menacées par l'UICN depuis 1996.

A haunting story about truth and reconciliation, and how one generation comes to terms with the crimes of another. In post-WWII Germany, teenager Michael Berg becomes ill and is helped home by Hanna, a stranger twice his age. Michael recovers from scarlet fever and seeks out Hanna to thank her. The two are quickly drawn into a passionate but secretive affair. Despite their intense bond, Hanna mysteriously disappears one day and Michael is left confused and heartbroken. Eight years later, while Michael is a law student observing the Nazi war crime trials, he is stunned to find Hanna back in his life – this time as a defendant in the courtroom. As Hanna's past is revealed, Michael uncovers a deep secret that will impact both of their lives.

A good movie that stirred the senses. There was young love and hatred and awakening. Definitely recommend.

The Faraway Paladin – 04 – Divine Protection
Gus manages to fight off Stagnate, but it turns out Stagnate split himself in two. Stagnate's second half arrives and puts Blood, Mary, and Gus out of commission, and gives Will an ultimatum: join him, or lose them all. He's clearly the more charitable, patient half, because he gives Will 24 hours to decide. Will uses that time to sulk.
It's at this point that the show reminds us that Will was, as he calls it, a useless garbage person in his past life, something he's kept from his parents to this point. But when he wakes up and starts ranting about how useless and garbage-y he still is, Mary won't hear it. She slaps him, tells him to stand up and get ahold of himself. Will may not have cried for his parents in his first life, but the fact he's so shook up about his new parents proves he's not the same person in this life.
Will turns Stagnate down, then has to fight a bunch of skeletons, which he does successfully, leading Stagnate to once again ask Will to join him. Will can tell Stagnate is genuine in his passion for and desire to create world without life or death, but simple everlasting…stagnation. The thing is, Will already had his fill of that in his past life, and is now in a position to reject it.
That's because, even after Stagnate offers Will a cup of his blood, Will cuts of Stagnate's hand holding the cup, and then the hand turns into a snake that injects Will with the blood like venom anyway, Will wakes up in the divine domain of Gracefeel, Goddess of the cycle of death and rebirth. A caring, benevolent God not unlike Mary in personality offers Will her divine protection.
All he has to do is what he wants to do anyway: move forward. Live. Not stagnate. When Will comes to, he's able to use the Divine Torch, which spooks Stagnate into launching an emergency destruction spell. But Will realizes almost too late that Stagnate was using that as a smokescreen so he could get to his true target: Mary and Blood. Will Will make it in time to save his parents? I hope so!

It's getting to that part of winter where fantasizing about the warmer months to come and their accompanying attire is a totally necessary remedy for keeping sane. Which is why Zulu & Zephyr is on my mind; the Sydney-based independent boutique label that wholly exudes "summer" is bringing some of my all-time favorite down-time pants to the party. The Oasis Pant in Zulu & Zephyr's exclusive print is one of the most flattering harem-fit bottoms out there. Their simple design is elevated with details like patch cargo pockets and a flat front waistband and I cannot wait to cruise around under the sun in mine.
As you're sitting in front of your computer screen, reading this ridiculously awesome article, a few things probably crossed your mind. Whether you clicked on this post to bring more enlightenment to your day or you unconsciously clicked on it during your office hours because you "might" have been procrastinating (don't worry, we won't tell), either way, we're glad you're here. Because we want this year to be one of the best years yet, we decided to share with you some cool-kid-approved startups to help make 2017 even better. So let's get this party started with all eight picks below, shall we?
