The Plug In Drug Television, Children, And The Family is a book of social criticism written by Marie Winn and published in 1977 by Viking Penguin Publications with the ISBN 0 14 00.7698 0. In it, Winn brought the communications medium of television under withering fire, accusing it of wielding an addictive influence on the very young. Wrote Winn blockquote The very nature of the television experience apart from the contents of the programs is rarely considered. Perhaps the ever changing array of sights and sounds coming out of the machine the wild variety of images meeting the eye and the barrage of human and inhuman sounds reaching the ear fosters the illusion of a varied experience for the viewer. It is easy to overlook a deceptively simple fact one is always watching television when one is watching television rather than having any other experience. blockquote In her 2002 update of The Plug In Drug, a 25th anniversary revision including new material that was subtitled Television, Computers, And Family Life, Winn was even more hostile to the Internet and the World Wide Web than she had been to television itself twenty five years before.

unreferenced date October 2009 An appliance plug is a three conductor power connector originally developed for kettle s, toaster s and similar small appliance s. It was common in the United Kingdom , New Zealand , Australia , Germany , the Netherlands and Sweden . It has largely been made obsolete and replaced by IEC 60320 C15 and IEC 60320 C15 C16 connectors, or proprietary connectors to base plates for cordless kettles. It still occurs on some traditional ceramic electric jugs. It is also used for some laboratory water stills. On some models of the classical ceramic electric jug, the appliance plug prevents the lid from being raised while the connector is inserted. This is important as during operation of these jugs, the water it contains is connected to the electric mains and is an electric shock risk. Appliance plugs were also used to supply power to electric toasters, electric coffee percolators, electric frypans, and many other appliances. An appliance plug is to some degree heat resistant, but the maximum working temperature varied from manufacturer to manufacturer and even from batch to batch. Image Appliance plug.jpg thumb 200px Appliance socket and plug The mains connectors of the appliance plug are two rounded sockets that accept two rounded pins from the appliance. They are unpolarised. The third connection, earth, is a large metal contact on each side of the plug body which makes contact with the sides of the plug receptacle, grounding the appliance body. Some appliances using these connectors incorporate a spring and plunger mechanism with a temperature sensitive release system if the temperature rises significantly above a preset limit for example, if a kettle boils dry the spring is released and if all goes well the plunger pushes the plug and socket apart. It must then be allowed to cool and reset manually by forcing the connector back into the appliance.
