A Blond Primer

چکیده
This report describes how to use the reflective tower Blond. A reflective tower is a computational architecture where programs are given access to representations of the current state of computation. This models an infinite tower of interpreters interpreting each other, meta-circularly. Blond is a Scheme interpreter extended to be reflective. This report concentrates on its reflective extension rather than on the standard Scheme characteristics. Reification, reflection, reified environments, and reified continuations are described in detail. Each key point is illustrated with scenarios. The first entries in a Blond library are assembled, and finally Blond is run in Blond, achieving orthogonal reflective towers. A glossary and the Scheme source code are provided in appendix. This report informally describes its 1988 implementation, as specified in the article “Intensions and Extensions in a Reflective Tower”, presented at the 1988 ACM Symposium on Lisp and Functional Programming, where Blond is formally described.

The Blond, The Dumb and the Ugly: Does Self-Stereotyping Mediate Prime-to-Behavior Effects?
Prime-to-behavior effects are hypothesized to result from prime-related changes in the self-concept. We tested whether both assimilation and contrast would occur after prime-congruent and prime-incongruent changes in the self-concept. We showed that blond stereotype priming and self-construal interact to influence self-stereotyping and intellectual performance. Independent-blond primed particip...
متن کاملThe Sweet Color of an Implicit Request: Women’s Hair Color and Spontaneous Helping Behavior
Results of previous researchers’ studies on the effect of blond hair color on helping behavior have been inconsistent. In addition, spontaneous helping behavior has not been examined. In this study, female confederates wearing blond, brown, or dark wigs accidentally dropped a glove while walking in pedestrian streets and then walked away, apparently not aware of their loss. It was found that ma...
متن کاملEffective epilation of white and blond hair using combined radiofrequency and optical energy.
OBJECTIVE The present study examined the long-term photoepilatory effect on blond and white hair of a combined intense pulsed light (680-980 nm) device with a bipolar radiofrequency component producing electrical current at a depth of 4 mm. MATERIALS AND METHODS Thirty-six adult women with white and blond hair (skin phenotypes I-V) were included in the study. The chin and upper lip were treat...
متن کاملCoat color and its effect on preference for the scent marks of opposite-sex conspecifics in the meadow vole Microtus pennsylvanicus
Many mammal species can distinguish between opposite-sex conspecifics that differ in a certain trait. In that coat coloration is associated with differences in physiological and behavioral traits, coat color may affect the attractiveness of odor cues produced by conspecifics. Individuals may be able to respond preferentially to conspecifics with a particular coat color. In the present study, we...
متن کاملA randomized, controlled, double-blind study evaluating melanin-encapsulated liposomes as a chromophore for laser hair removal of blond, white, and gray hair.
INTRODUCTION Laser hair removal of blond and white hair is a complicated task with often unsatisfactory results as a result of a lack of laser-absorbing chromophore. In the present study, we investigated if repetitive external application of liposomal melanin (Lipoxome; Dalton Medicare B.V., Zevenbergschen Hoek, The Netherlands) enables removal of blond/white and gray hair with a diode laser. ...
