The Scarecrows
The Scarecrows is a young-adult novel by Robert Westall, published by Chatto & Windus in 1981. It is a psychological novel with a supernatural twist, featuring a thirteen-year-old boy's reaction to his mother's courtship and remarriage six years after his father's death. It deals with themes of rage, isolation and fear. Beside the inner themes, it "tells of a boy and his family brought to the brink of destruction by sinister external forces" and it may be called a ghost story. Its US Library of Congress Subject Headings are remarriage, stepfathers, and horror stories.

Westall and The Scarecrows won the annual Carnegie Medal for British children's books. Thus he became the second writer with two such honours, having won the 1975 Medal for The Machine Gunners.

William Morrow and Company published the US edition under its Greenwillow Books imprint within the calendar year.

The Machine-Gunners

The author also wrote a play based on the book, and others have adapted it for television and radio. A sequel, Fathom Five, set two years later, was published in 1979.

Westall won the annual Carnegie Medal from the Library Association, recognising the year's outstanding children's book by a British subject, and Machine-Gunners was named one of the top ten Medal-winning works for the 70th anniversary celebration in 2007, selected by a panel to compose the ballot for a public election of the all-time favourite.
Ming vase strategy
The Ming vase strategy or small target strategy is a political strategy where a party or candidate emphasises cautious political messaging, light policy detail and criticism of a political opponent rather than one's own platform, with the primary aim of maintaining current support and preventing the loss of more moderate voters to opponents rather than trying to win new voters. The strategy is most closely associated with the successful campaigns of British Labour Party leaders Tony Blair and Keir Starmer for the 1997 and 2024 United Kingdom general elections and Australian Labor Party leader Anthony Albanese for the 2022 Australian federal election. It was also used by Kamala Harris in the 2024 United States presidential election and Olaf Scholz's Social Democratic Party of Germany in the 2021 German federal election.

Political moderate
Moderate is an ideological category which designates a rejection of radical or extreme views, especially in regard to politics and religion. In American politics, "moderate" is an ideological category which entails centrist views on a liberal–conservative spectrum.
Apple of Sodom (song)
"Apple of Sodom" is a song by American rock band Marilyn Manson. The track was recorded for the soundtrack to David Lynch's 1997 film Lost Highway. It was written by the band's eponymous vocalist and produced by Manson with Sean Beavan. Lynch personally chose the band to contribute music to the soundtrack as he found Manson inspiring, and because of the band's commercial viability. An industrial song about obsession, it was inspired by Manson's feelings about singer Fiona Apple; the  eponymous apple of Sodom is a toxic plant. The song was followed by multiple collaborations between Manson and Lynch.

The track received a mainly positive response from music critics, who commended its composition. A music video was directed by Joseph Cultice, although initially was not made public due to its low-budget nature and depiction of nudity. The clip was released to YouTube in 2009. It garnered critical acclaim and comparisons to the work of Manson's contemporaries.
