In Rod El Farag, one of the poorest residential areas in Cairo, obtaining meat, fruit and daily bread is a constant struggle. But the sense of community shared by the inhabitants helps them to some extent overcome their hardships through a social practice known as "al Gami'ya", or "the credit union". The assembly in this film serves a portal to penetrate the vivacity of 5 characters over a period of 6 years. A rare, intimate and genuine portrait of life, witnessed through the eyes and voice of its characters in a place that doesn't know rest, situated under a train station.

What every woman should know a..
Microsoft ditching the Nokia name on smartphones
BBC launches WhatsApp Ebola se..
Microsoft is ditching the Nokia brand name from new smartphones, less than a year after acquiring the Finnish firm's mobile devices division.
New Nokia Lumia phones will instead be known as Microsoft Lumia, the company said.
The parts of Nokia that were not bought by Microsoft will continue to use the name.
The mobile operation was bought by Microsoft in April in a deal worth $7.2bn (£4.6bn).
Since then, Microsoft has quietly shifted away from the Nokia brand.
A post on a French Facebook page for Nokia-branded devices confirmed the shift. The renaming will roll out globally in due course, Microsoft has said.
The announcement does not prevent Microsoft from continuing to use the Nokia brand on its less powerful "feature phones", which it has the right to do for about 10 years.
Microsoft is currently having a big shake-up. In July, chief executive Satya Nadella announced the cutting of 18,000 jobs.
The bulk of the cuts, around 12,500, will be from staff taken on after the Nokia acquisition.

That would be a CJ-5. It could be a number of things. Vapor lock, condensor getting hot if its old, ect. Email mike@kaiserwillys.com and we can help.
Questions: I HAVE A CJ-3B WITH A CARTER YF-938 CARB. WHEN THE JEEP RUNS FOR 20 SECONDS, GAS STARTS SHOOTING OUT THE SMALL TUBE IN THE BARREL OF THE CARBERATOR. THIS FLOODS THE ENGINE AND IT QUITS IMMEDIATLY. WHAT IS WRONG.
Could be a vacuum issue or you are putting out too much fuel pressure. Email mike@kaiserwillys.com and I can try to help out.
Questions: I am changing from a Solex Carb to a Carter on a 1957 CJ-5 (F head, 134 cuin.). The Solex has fittings on it to secure the throttle and choke cables and the Carter does not. Is there a separate bracket(s) to hold the cables for the Carter?
You should have a upper bracket on your Carter to hold the outer cable in place.
Questions: Are you saying that with one of these carbs, after installation, no idle adjustments have to be made because they are tuned already??
They are engine tested and tuned. However each engine is different due to timing and elevation differences so it is common to have to do alittle.
Questions: I don't have a core to send, I got the engine without it, that's why I'm looking for one. Is there anyway I could get it, even if it cost me more?
Please call us toll free.
I would do the water test (drain it and see where the bubble are coming out of) then sauder the hole.
Questions: Do you have a rebuilt/exchange carb for 67 CJ5 with a 6-225? Any ideas??
We can rebuild your old one for you. Please call us toll free and we can help out.
Questions: I am looking for a new/refurbished Carter YF carb for my CJ6. Can you help with supply. Challenge, I am in South Africa. Will you still freight to me? Would you still want my core?
We have to have your old core in first on this. You will need to ship it to us.


it can be clearly seen on third and fifth second of video. How to get rid of this?
I've noticed that this happens when wheel colliders on one side and car body's box collider touch the ground simultaneously. If i make wheels really wide it looks like wheels are floating, one meter from car's body, but no strange situations occur. Also, if wheels are really narrow, buried inside car's body, it's also ok. Because there is no possibility for box collider and wheel colliders to touch ground at the same time. But I want it to be reallistic. What do?

Q: LibGdx double tap I want to detect double taps in libgdx using the tap method of the GestureDetector. GestureListener class. I searched the Web for the last two days but I couldn't find an example of how  to do it. I know that the method has a "count"  variable but I don't know how to use it. Thanks in advance.

A: I believe that the accepted answer doesn't provide enough details, so here is a small code snippet with implementation:
public class DoubleTapDetector extends GestureDetector.GestureAdapter {

    @Override
    public boolean tap(float x, float y, int count, int button) {
        if (count == 2) {
            System.out.println("Double tap!");
            return true;
        }
        return false;
    }
}

A: There is an example of usage of GestureDetector with multiple tapping detection in one of libGDX's tests: GestureDetectorTest.java.

At least three members of Waterfront Toronto's digital-strategy advisory panel say they may resign following a key meeting on Thursday if the government agency doesn't address their concerns over its proposed development partnership with Sidewalk Labs.
Sidewalk, a subsidiary of Google parent Alphabet Inc., is developing the project known as Quayside in conjunction with Waterfront Toronto. In April, the agency representing all three levels of government struck a panel to advise on tech policies for the 12-acre development.
That panel has already seen two high-profile resignations. Earlier this month, Saadia Muzaffar departed over what she called "utter lack of leadership regarding shaky public trust" over Waterfront's partnership with Sidewalk. Long-time venture capitalist John Ruffolo resigned in the summer.
After months of queries and criticism from Canadian innovators frustrated by a lack of clarity over who will own and manage the data generated by the sensor-rich neighbourhood, Sidewalk released a data-governance proposal on Monday, offering to house the project's urban data, such as those from pedestrian-counting technology, in an independent trust for anyone to access. The proposal tries to address some of the criticism by asserting that Sidewalk would not have preferential access to the data, nor an advantage in creating products to monetize it.
But several digital-strategy panel members, who will discuss the proposal at the Thursday meeting, told The Globe and Mail they remain worried about the project and its timeline.
"My ongoing participation will depend on the progress we make" at the meeting, said panelist Pamela Robinson, an urban-planning professor and associate dean at Ryerson University. The panel, she said, needs a strong transparent process and continuing access to "real substance" in order for its feedback on data governance and technology to make a difference.
Along with Mr. Clement and Ms. Robinson, Teresa Scassa, the Canada Research Chair in Information Law and Policy at the University of Ottawa, said she would consider resigning depending on the meeting's outcome.
Ms. Scassa said she worried that the sudden rush to get Sidewalk's data-governance strategy in front of the panel left members ill prepared to challenge some of the assumptions she saw built into it, including who has access to the Quayside project's data. "I'm probably not the only one who's wondering if we are meant to be window dressing," she said in an interview on Tuesday.
Kurtis McBride, chief executive of Kitchener, Ont.-based traffic analytics company Miovision, told The Globe he is waiting to hear more on Thursday about a technical issue in Sidewalk's digital-governance proposal, concerning how cities could derive economic benefit from their data, before making a decision about his future on the panel.
Their departure from the panel would mark a significant loss of academic and smart-city technology expertise as Waterfront attempts to build a world-leading smart community, just as the project faces increasing scrutiny one year after the Sidewalk-Waterfront partnership was first made public.
And Toronto mayoral challenger Jennifer Keesmaat on Tuesday singled out Waterfront Toronto and its dealings with Sidewalk Labs as she announced a call for a "transparency review" of key city-affiliated agencies. While incumbent John Tory has said he believes the Sidewalk project will be good for Toronto, he added that there remained "unanswered questions" about data and privacy that need to be addressed.
Mark Wilson, who is both a former chair of Waterfront Toronto and a long-time executive with IBM Corp., said he recognized the frustration that many other current and former digital-strategy panelists – including Ms. Muzaffar – have expressed over the lack of detail the panel has been given so far. Still, he said of the data-governance proposal, "I'm cautiously optimistic that we have something of substance to deal with."
The digital-strategy advisory panel is one of two high-profile groups to meet discussing the proposed waterfront development this week. On Wednesday, Sidewalk's own advisory council – an invitation-only committee revealed last week by open-data advocate Bianca Wylie – will see a group of pan-industry executives discuss the project over lunch.
The Globe contacted each of the panel's 13 members for this story. Not everyone responded; Charles Finley, the global director of marketing for IBI Group, and Kevin Tuer, managing director of Canada's Open Data Exchange, declined to comment.
Sidewalk Labs deferred to Waterfront Toronto for comment.


The only perpetual tourist library of the world that dates back to 250 years ago, is located in the heart of the central Iranian city of Yazd.
This library is the only permanent tourist library of the world since one of them is on a train in Japan and another on a ship in Italy, ifpnews.com wrote.
Yazd Tourist Library is a unique and exciting new experience that, after Japan and Italy, is the third largest tourist library in the world.
In this library, there are many books and sources of visual and audio information about the culture, architecture, art and civilization of Iran which are available to tourists in several languages.
The library has five rooms. There are books on carpets and rugs, Iranology, historical maps, book of paintings, and Imam Hossein (PBUH), which illustrates the history of Ashura uprising for foreign and domestic tourists.
In every corner of this historical house, there are diverse books in different languages that keep visitors busy for several hours.
According to him, the books are in languages such as German, Italian, Russian, English, Chinese, Spanish, Polish, Portuguese, and other languages, and most of which are related to various topics of Iranology, history, culture and handicrafts in Yazd.
The building of the library, called 'Bam-e Yazd', is the Rafiean's old house dating back to the Zand and early Qajar periods. It has an Iranian and traditional architecture.


Alex always takes the girls. The trail was so wonderful, it was snowing and quiet, no motors running, no loud tourists yelling...and lots of rabbit tracks for the dogs to sniff and enjoy! Our walk was about half an hour yesterday. This is an area we can go to often. I went in there a lot last summer, so I think we found our spot! I hope!
I'm still trying to find my energy though. Anxiety is debilitating and just that half hour walk in the woods winded me. Thank you frozen pizzas! :) The pizzas I froze a few weeks back were the perfect solution for dinner! I have to make a few more today.
We stopped by the mail boxes on the way home and look! Another cookbook for me! I'm spoiled. :) Alex says, yes he spoils me, but he also benefits so it's a win-win situation lol...This is a great cookbook for little appetizers, I can't wait to try some!
It's Saturday morning and this is the backyard. Freshly fallen snow and the sun is out! I'm starting to feel that hope again that everything will be okay and I can conquer my anxiety!
I had no attacks yesterday so I'm really feeling great today. There is a flower remedy called Rescue Remedy. I took that years ago and it helped with panic a lot. I started using it about 3 weeks ago, and Alex mentioned that it was around that time when the attacks got continually worse. I didn't have any Rescue Remedy yesterday, nor any attacks...coincidence? I'm not going to take it anymore so we'll see. I also added a B-Complex to my mornings and I'm now up to 45 minutes on the mini-trampoline, jogging away each morning.
The photos look so serene, but the reality is this: It's the weekend. Last night when we took the dogs out before bed, all we could hear was a giggling-gaggle-of-girls partying next door. We're guessing the parents let the kids have the place for the weekend, ick. And until 3am we heard some kind of snowmobile race going on, it's so annoying. But that's just me venting. One more day and then we have our quiet home and village again for another five days!
Leo and Charlie - Leo WANTS to be taller!
I love this photo of Leo and Charlie...it's so cute. I'm SO proud of the dogs today. I must sing the praises of the DREMEL for filing doggie nails. I decided on a whim to try filing their nails again this morning. I was a bit worried that Jack might start his aggression and growling again but I was very surprised! FIVE MINUTES later, all three dogs were done!!!!! The huskies laid back on their sides while I filed their nails - I guess the girls enjoyed the pedicure, I would too :)... and Jack is my biggest source of pride today. He let me file his nails with only a little grumbling and NO MUZZLE. I never thought that trimming their nails would be a pleasure, I couldn't stop giving them treats after lol...anyone with dogs who wants to save some money and make the task easier, seriously, try it! I'm very excited about this because I've been trimming dog nails since 1995 and I seriously never looked forward to it...I wish I'd tried the Dremel sooner! I feel like a spokesperson lol...but this has saved me so much stress too.
Looks nice even with all the snow, nice to get out in the woods without a bunch of yahoos running around. I made the bridges here too narrow for their 4 wheel ATVs and they don't like to walk so it is quiet in these woods.
Hi Gill :) That's a good idea bout the bridges being narrow. I admit that where I'd usually pick up and toss aside big branches I find on walking trails, I just stepped over them yesterday. I don't mind snowmobiles, but like you said, it's the yahoos driving them who ruin it for everyone. But it was very nice being there yesterday, so quiet and peaceful as the snow fell.
It looks like you live in such a heavenly spot . . . but that's all spoiled by having inconsiderate neighbors, the snowmobile traffic, etc. At least the snowmobilers (and parties, I hope) go away on the week days which you can enjoy. I wouldn't hesitate to take the short drive to where you can safely walk the dogs and get exercise yourself. It's well worth it!
I know anxiety (or depression) can take the physical stuffings out of a person. Depression is bad enough but I think anxiety is worse in that one feels so out of control. And that's scary. As much as it doesn't feel good 'cause you don't have the energy, I tend to feel getting outside in the fresh air (don't breath any snowmobile exhaust!) for exercise is still good.
Rescue Remedy has worked for me in many situations, but eliminating it for a while (and then maybe adding it back in later?) isn't going to hurt anything. Sometimes I think the ugly-buglies that get hold of us are stronger than anyone realizes. That's not to say we can't keep fighting them for all we're worth!
So glad you found a place you could walk the dogs in peace! I am very lucky here as I am about the only one with dogs around here. I need to look up anxiety and panic attacks as I am not familiar with them although I know there are times I feel overwhelmed but I don't think that is the same. Have you tried deep breathing, meditation and my cure for anytime I am faced with anything that is bothering me (family drama for one! LOL) I just work my tail off doing something physical like washing walls or floors on my hands and knees! I have to work so I exhaust myself and then I am too tired to worry, be mad, anxious or anything. I know also that walking in nature is always calming for me. Deep breathing and sometimes just playing some mindless computer games to distract myself and change the dynamics.
Your pizza looks so good! And I'm sure it was! Weekends are crafting/sewing weekends for me I decided otherwise I never get to it. I hope your weekend 'quiets down' a bit for you and your picture of Leo and Charlie is a hoot! My Miss Peeps (cat) copies Nitty (Rottweiler) all the time...I think she thinks she's a dog.
Your pets are so darling! Have a great weekend!
Yeah, those cookbooks are kind of a self-serving gift, Alex! But who can really blame him?
I LOVE my rebounder! That's really too bad it makes you feel uncomfortable! But I have the same attitude. I stopped doing yoga because oddly enough, last fall when I was done one of my routines, I got what's called an ocular migraine. It scared me silly. I lost vision for about an hour, all I could see were zapping shards of light. Talk about panic-inducing. I did see a doctor and was told it could be the twists and upside down moves that do it. I'm prone to regular migraines...anyway, long novel short, I don't do yoga because it's not good for me anymore!
Being outside helps me a lot, I can't go one day without being outside for a long time. Winters are more challenging, but I do bundle up and try to stay out on the porch for at least an hour when the weather makes me homebound.
I still have the Rescue Remedy...but I was using it 3x a day for prevention. I read on the Bach website that it was fine to do that, because it's not habit inducing...but I think I'll keep it for big emergencies only. It would have come in handy on the icy hill a few weeks back. Alex thinks my PTSD is acting up from that incident, which is very possible.
Wow u got a lit of snow still. We went out fir a walk across the fields and I was surprised how many bare spots there are already. I predict the snow will be gone by the end of the month ... wich will be VERY early ... but I love it.
The spot u found to walk the dogs looks lovely. I hope u will be able to enjoy it without any disturbance.
Hi Rain! That little wooded walking spot looks perfect! We too usually drive to get to a good spot to walk the dogs. We can walk around the neighborhood here, but if we want peace and quiet (mostly) we head north to my favorite provincial park, Birds Hill Park. Its about half an hour from here so not close, but with almost 8000 acres at our disposal, that's my go to for peace, to forest bathe and let the dogs wander (responsibly of course). My husband is at the park almost every weekend. We have friends who have a ranch just north of the park and they are big into polo. My husband works with their team of Percherons and does sleigh rides in the winter and wagon rides in the summer. He loves it. Horses are such beautiful creatures.
That cookbook looks intriguing!! Just yesterday my neighbor dropped off 2 bags of cookbooks for me. I collect vintage ones and there were a few in the mix. Can you say excited!! :) I can't wait to see some pictures of what you make from this one!
We are gearing up in about an hour for Earth Hour. We have our trusty crank radio and candles all ready! I am sure I will fall asleep - it will be dark and no noise save the radio. Yep, I can just picture it now.
I hope your anxiety decides its had enough and moves on. Nothing worse and I can totally relate. Have you tried meditation? I have a good app that I found for my phone and tablet called Insight Timer. Its fantastic. Its got everything from mini moments to music to yoga. And the best part - its free! :) I have been using it for about a year now and my son also uses it as well. I really like it.
those woods are amazing, I could sit out there and write and write...we have trees here on our 7 acres but not the kind of woods you can get lost in. Your critters all look so happy by the way.
Hey Nik :) We got such a tease of spring last week that it was sad to see all that snow come down, but we made the best of it! Tomorrow is freezing rain though...ice rink on the way! That little spot in the woods is gorgeous as long as we only go during the week! I've only ever seen one person there and it's an elderly man who lives down the road. He has a permit to pick up dead wood to heat his place, but then he's really on there in the early mornings during the fall.
Hi Dianna :)) The woods are so nice here, the Laurentian mountain chain is spectacular. I've lived closer to the NB border in the Appalachians and that mountain chain is so gorgeous too. I don't think I could live away from the mountains! You know, at one point in my dream-filled life, I was going to drive across Canada with a tent! That was before I met my boyfriend and we got 6 pets though lol...one of my stops was to be Birds Hill Park! Funny coincidence :) Just from pictures, it looks so beautiful, I'm glad you have a serene spot for your forest bathing :) I love that!
Oh gosh, I'm jealous of your 2 bags of cookbooks!!! We get ours on Amazon used, never more than $10 each including shipping. I also found a few US online stores and I've been browsing there too. I know there would be so much more if I could only find some ENGLISH books around here darn it! Have fun with your cookbooks!!! I have an old Campbells Soup cookbook originally printed nearly 50 years ago, but mine is a "newer" edition from the 1980's with a "microwave cooking time" addition :) Kind of outdated, but very interesting!
I LOVE that we aren't getting the negative double digits right now! Even yesterday when it snowed, it was hovering around zero. We are having freezing rain tomorrow though, not looking forward to that! I spent Earth hour with my candle lit, writing in my journal :) Yes, I have tried meditation in the past. My "go to" podcast is from Meditation Oasis, they have a website too. I just download their stuff to my Ipod then sit back. I just restarted today and I don't know why I ever stopped! I was so nervous before dinner, but the meditation stopped my trembling and I know I avoided a panic attack! I'm going to check out your app too.
Th snow photos are beautiful. I love the last one with the dog and cat both looking out the window. Cute.


According to the UN Water Agency's research, the introduction of waste technologies in the agriculture and heavy industry sectors by 2020 should be double of today´s level. This industry is therefore considered to be the fastest growing global business of recent years.
Countries should invest an average of over 22 billion US dollars in the recovery and regulation of their wastewater management. Together with the increasing political pressure to find alternative solutions to fast-disappearing drinking water supplies, the potential of this sector is high.
Experts predicted a rocket-like boom in the industry in 2007, but the global economic crisis has blunted their forecasts.
Countries with huge agglomerations such as China, India or Brazil are probably the worst in the field of their wastewater treatment.
Excessive industrialization and agricultural cultivation forced them to invest in the regulation of waste management some43.2% of the total budget for 2015.
Map of Europe shows areas with critical drinking water scarcity. France, Germany and the UK have invested the most in wastewater treatment technologies so far.
The planned increase in investment in the waste management sector will also affect countries such as Israel, Saudi Arabia and South Africa where the drinking water shortage situation remains critical.
The latest report speaks about 80%, sometimes up to 95% of waste water which is virtually unused drained into watercourses. The potential of recycled sewage wastewater in the agricultural, industrial and household sectors is still minimally used in 2018.
However, industrial wastewater treatment plants have begun to adapt in recent years and recycled wastewater is increasingly being used.
This was especially allowed by the membrane separation method, which according to experts should be up to 8% by 2020.
Membrane filtration in recent years in the wastewater management sector is a success because it is economically not heavily demandingwhile environmentally friendly.
Another method that would reduce the amount of unused wastewater in our rivers is the sludge removal method. In 2015, this method was second most used, especially in municipal and industrial wastewater treatment.
The reverse osmosis recycling methods, microfiltration, ultrafiltration, nanofiltration and disinfection are kept behind the sludge removal method.
By 2030, worldwide demand for water will increase to 3,000 cubic kilometers, which is twice the total amount of wastewater produced.
Waste management has great potentialto create opportunities for research and implementation of new waste technologies or for the remediation and regulation of obsolete wastewater treatment plants..
Mining of mineral resources, energy and the paper industry are precisely those areas where tougher regulations for wastewater recycling are touched most.
According to the latest reports, in the mining industry, the membrane filtration process will mainly involve the application of ceramic membranes.
In the energy industry willfocus itself on biological processes that remove selenium-based substances from water.
Oxidation processes using ozone are likely to record growth especially in the oil and gas industry.
We remain hopeful that in the coming years we will witness mentioned growth forecast for wastewater treatment technologies to the last letter.

Transitional relief is designed to reduce the impact of any significant changes in rates liability - whether the change is up or down. If you are eligible for transitional relief it will be automatically awarded when your bill is calculated.
Transitional adjustment limits the percentage your business rates bill can be increased or decreased each year following revaluation.
The transitional adjustment will apply each year until your bill reaches what your full bill would have been in 2017.
The full 2017 bill is calculated by multiplying the rateable value by the multiplier.
A Small property is a property with a 2017 Rateable Value below £20,000. A medium property is a property with a 2017 Rateable Value above £20,000 (£28,000 in London). A Large Property is a property with a 2017 Rateable Value above £100,000.

It's May 1st and I want to hit the restart button on this website. Lately, I've been feeling like there is this big disconnection in the blogging world. So many websites with amazing information. However, the majority of them have seemed to have lost something, myself included. We've been so focused on giving you great useful content. That we've no longer have a personal relationship with our readers.
So Let's start this month with getting personal!
I am not money motivated. Don't get me wrong. I like money, but money doesn't fuel me. I have turned down jobs with better pay and career advancements because they didn't fit into my families schedule.
Some of my family and friends think I'm cheap. It's not that I'm cheap it's just that I value items differently from what other people value. An example would be our family going out to dinner. We order water. 6 people at $3 a pop, plus tax and tip = $22.00. $22.00 for soda is ridiculous. (Mentally I have a $2.00 limit for soda at a restaurant with a limit of 2 people) In my mind, I would rather take the family out for ice cream after dinner and spend the $22.00 on that instead of soda.
I am a basic math nerd. I can add up an entire cart of groceries and be within $5 of the total. I can estimate how much fabric I would need to do a project and be spot on. I know percentages, finance charges, what's a good deal, etc. However don't ask me to read a ruler, fraction, or anything algebra or geometry relation.
I am a great copy cat. If I see something, I can mentally figure out how to make it.
I can sew, but I have no idea how to read a sewing pattern. Most of the stuff I make is pretty much by figuring it out mentally.
I can cook and make meals from scratch. I was just having a conversation about this the other day with friends and I was oblivious to how many people can't do this and rely strictly on recipes.
I don't often create new made from scratch meals with guests I invite to eat over. I don't ever know how the meal will turn out and don't want to be embarrassed that the dish was not edible.
Every family photo we do, we take one picture with our eyes closed. We got the idea from the show My Name is Earl. We figured it was easier to ensure all of us had our eyes closed, rather than the fighting to have them all open.
I feel like when God made me, he used all of his ingredients. He gave me a little bit of this, a little bit of that. I love everything. I want to do and be everything.
I'm a great friend… now. There's not much I won't do to help my friends out. However, when I was younger I was very selfish. If helping you didn't fit into my life, I wouldn't do it and would lie about why I couldn't.
I love talking to people on the phone. I can talk for hours and I'm a great multi-tasker while doing it. Most of the time, I'm cleaning so this helps my time go by a lot faster. My sister in law runs while talking to me.
I'm a night owl. My creative juices thrive best at night. If I could stay up till 3 am and sleep until 11 am every morning, I'd be one happy camper.
My husband and I met on a blind date… however he wasn't my date. He was the blind date of one of my childhood friends. Fast forward 8 months, we both were lied to by my sister and her boyfriend. Each of them telling us that we wanted each other's phone number and connected us together.
I have always been a believer in Christ. But it's only been within the past 10 years that I started following Him. I have so many "It's a God thing" stories and the faith I have in him is strong. I'm not ashamed to admit that I am not a theologist. I don't know all the answers, there are a lot of words I cannot pronounce in the Bible. I can barely remember bible verses, but yet… I am HIS child and he is doing so much in my life.
I hope you enjoyed these 15 Things. A community is so important to me and I hope you feel like you've gotten to know me better. I'd like to get to know you too. Which of these 15 things can you most relate to with me? Comment below and share.


Bofang Li, Tao Liu, Zhe Zhao, Puwei Wang and Xiaoyong Du published a paper named "Neural bag-of-n-grams" at the 31th AAAI Conference on Artificial Intelligence (AAAI) between Feb 4th and 9th,2017.
In this paper, they introduce the concept of Neural Bag-of-ngrams (Neural-BoN), which replaces sparse one-hot n-gram representation in traditional BoN with dense and rich-semantic n-gram representations. They first propose context guided n-gram representation by adding n-grams to word embeddings model. However, the context guided learning strategy of word embeddings is likely to miss some semantics for text-level tasks. Text guided ngram representation and label guided n-gram representation are proposed to capture more semantics like topic or sentiment tendencies. Neural-BoN with the latter two n-gram representations achieve state-of-the-art results on 4 documentlevel classification datasets and 6 semantic relatedness categories.
AAAI is called Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence. It is a long-standing international conference in the field of artificial intelligence. It attracts thousands of scholars from around the world to discuss the development frontier of artificial intelligence. This year is the 28th session, held in Quebec City, Canada in July. A total of 1,406 submissions were received this year, and 398 were eventually accepted, with a recruitment rate of 28%.

Returning From Level 900 CH 70
Chapter 70: Job
"What is the matter What happened" That time, it was Brawny Mans turn to be confused.
With tears in his eyes, Perplexed Man swatted the bats flying around him and told Brawny Man, "I accidentally killed one."
"F*ck… be careful!"
Brawny Man could not help but curse and concentrate on the big monsters.
The boss monsters would split into two again if a small monster died.
He was unsure he could handle more cockroaches, so he decided not to kill them first and instead focused on eliminating their lethality.
If he left them alive, he would kill one after all four of them had lost their strength.
That way, the pressure would be less, even if one split into two again.
The pressure on him might have been reduced, but the pressure on the four corners increased significantly.
That was because that method was extremely time-consuming.
The encirclement of the giant cockroach was challenging to deal with.
It had rough skin, thick flesh, and infinite strength.
If it scratched him, the wound would not be painful.
However, he might be paralyzed if he survived it.
If he let go of his hands, killing one of them would take him a few minutes.
He had to hold back his strength so that those monsters would not kill him.
He would need more than a few minutes to handle all of them.
After all, the small monsters in the four corners would not stop coming because he was holding back his strength.
They could only deal with 20 or 30 of them.
The bats could gnaw into their bones if there were hundreds or thousands of them.
At that point, the issue would not be holding back the small monsters but surviving them.
In reality, it took longer than expected to handle the big monster.
Brawny Man finished hacking off the legs of a large monster after half an hour, causing it to lose strength and roll to the side to struggle desperately.
Wang Wen frowned as he held a swarm of bats and looked at the panting, brawny man.
He was perplexed by the other partys strength, which fluctuated between high and low.
Was he on drugs
He sneered.
The man did not ask for assistance at the time.
So, Wang Wen remained in the same spot and went about his business, quietly watching Brawny Mans performance.
He did not have to wait long.
Perplexed Mans painful voice echoed again from a distant corner.
"How long will this take There are far too many monsters in this place! I cant hold on much longer!"
Brawny Man did not have time to say anything.
Fair-skinned Man asked, "Is this too difficult Should we leave Maybe we should just leave the tower!"
Brawny Man yelled, "Weve held on for so long.
Dont give up! Hold on a little longer!"
Perplexed Man and Fair-skinned Man remained silent.
After another half-hour, only one cockroach remained in the center of the field.
The other three had already collapsed and were flailing about without legs.
Brawny Man paused to assess the situation in the four corners.
He raised his long knife and killed the cockroach in front of him before stepping back.
"It has already split into five," he said.
"We would have finished the level by now if it had not been for the small monster that died!"
He received no response.
The four corners were guarding their posts quietly.
Brawny Man pursed his lips and quickly treated his wounds.
The opposing boss had already split again.
He took his longsword and charged forward, dealing with the fourth and fifth cockroaches.
At that point, the first cockroach was unwilling to die in such a humiliating manner, so it self-destructed!
Before it died, its belly turned upside down and spat out a pile of sticky yellow liquid.
Then, it split in two.
After that, it burst again!
When Brawny Man saw that the situation had changed back to one versus four, he frowned speechlessly and could only grit his teeth and quicken his actions.
After all, a one-versus-four situation was a little difficult for him.
Before he could even make a move, one of the two cockroaches that had been dealt with exploded.
The cockroach spat out yellow juice and split into two new cockroaches.
Brawny Man rubbed his eyes, perplexed.
He counted the cockroaches.
Six unharmed, and one crippled.
There were seven cockroaches.
"F*ck!"
"There are seven now!"
"Are you serious Who killed another small monster" Brawny Man roared angrily.
Perplexed Man was the weakest link.
At least a hundred bats surrounded him at the time.
His clothes were ripped, and his skin was stained with blood.
He hurried to avoid the growing bat swarms attacks.
"Its not me! Please hurry! I cant hold one much longer!"
Wang Wen could not take it any longer.
He dashed to the mans side with a sack in his hand.
He took the bats and placed them in the sack.
Brawny Man charged at the cockroaches with all his strength.
He appeared to be trying to eliminate the cockroaches and clear the level as quickly as possible.
Unfortunately, he did not know whether it was because of his severe injuries or exhaustion.
His accuracy was deteriorating, and his strength was dwindling.
The precision and violence with which he cut off one of his legs with a few slashes had all but vanished.
The cockroaches counterattack occasionally hit him.
That made his already disadvantaged situation even worse.
Wang Wen returned to his corner after assisting Perplexed Man in catching a few dozen bats.
He did not want to amass too many monsters until they became too difficult to deal with.
He did them a favor.
He still had to do his job.
Finally, before he arrived at his destination, Fair-skinned Mans corner lit up with white light!
Fair-skinned Man had left without saying anything!
A large group of bats lost sight of their target and dispersed.
Some of them joined the group of bats on Leather-jacket Mans side, while others flew toward Wang Wen and Brawny Man in the center, happily biting their targets.
There was suddenly one fewer person, and the entire scene was in disarray.
Brawny Man sobbed and yelled, "F*ck! Just kill me!"
He turned around as he yelled.
However, Wang Wen abruptly abandoned his corner and moved closer to the center.
Brawny Man was enraged by that strange behavior.
"Why are you not looking after the small monsters" he yelled at Wang Wen.
Wang Wen did not respond.
He grabbed a pair of bat wings and caught the scattered bats back into his bag, much like a sanitation worker cleaning up trash.
Thirteen seconds.
Wang Wen only needed thirteen seconds to round up all of the scattered bats.
His large sack could not contain them all.
Then, Brawny Man saw him pull a new sack.
He noticed that Wang Wen did not only do his job well, but he also did the job that others did not do well.
Brawny Man was somewhat speechless.
Wang Wen had captured dozens of bats in Perplexed Mans corner, greatly relieving his pressure.
"Do you need me to catch some too" he asked, slightly relaxed.
Brawny Man heard Perplexed Mans question after Wang Wen had turned the chaotic situation around alone.
"Keep an eye on your corner! If you had not killed a monster, we would have completed this level a long time ago.
Just do as he tells you!"
Brawny Man was filled with resentment, but no one knew what he was feeling.
He cursed and slashed at the large cockroach.
However, before he could complete his thought, Leather-jacket Man, who had been silent the entire time, spoke up.
"Youve only been to the 200th floor.
Why are you so arrogant I no longer want to be on the same team as you."
A bright white light flashed.
Leather-jacket Man followed suit.
When Perplexed Man saw that scene, he realized there was no way out of the level, so he quickly followed and quietly asked to leave the tower.
During the five-second countdown, he pretended to be insistent and asked, "F*ck, only three of us left How should we proceed"
The five-second countdown was coming to an end as he spoke.
His body emitted a white light, and he vanished without waiting for Brawny Man to speak.
Someone else walked away.
There were only two people left on the field.
However, Brawny Man appeared relaxed.
Wang Wen, who was chasing bats around the Square Formation, caught his attention.
He raised his brows and lowered his voice.
He encouraged Wang Wen while hacking the cockroaches, saying, "Hey, hold on! Do you have more sacks"
"You should be the one to hold on." Wang Wen returned to his corner, carrying the sacks.
There were already a few flying bats coming out of the teleportation portal in that short amount of time.
He smiled and gently pinched the bats wings.
After all, he still had to do his job well.

County kids learn vital skills at camp
KATIE HANSEN Daily News staff
Some Onslow County teens recently got a taste of the skills it takes to be an emergency responder.
This year marked the fifth annual free emergency services camp, offered to 14 to 18-year-old kids living in Onslow County.
The goal of the camp is to provide the students with new skills along with a passion and understanding for the wide spectrum of emergency services.
Onslow County Deputy Director of Emergency Services Stacie Miles said the camp runs the second or third week in June each year.
The camp lasts from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday and area businesses provide lunches and the county provides the students with all the gear they need throughout the week.
Onslow County Fire Marshal Brian Kelly said emergency services is more than just police, fire and EMS.
�Emergency services is so much more than that,� Kelly said.
He said one day the students learned about land-based search and rescue and they were taught how to use compasses. Miles said there was a presentation on bioterrorism, students learned about HAM radio communications and Vidant Medical Center made a presentation on air medical evacuation.
�We give them a full range of what emergency services is to show them what is available to them,� she said.
Rodney Dorn, 14, an incoming freshman at East Duplin, said he had a great time at his first year in camp.
�I learned a lot; my favorite part was learning about the State Medical Assistance Team,� Dorn said. Dorn�s father, Capt. Richard Dorn, works in emergency services, and Dorn said someday he wants to do exactly what his dad does.
Dorn said his time at camp taught him valuable skills, such as how to save a person who�s drowning.
�If I ever see somebody out in the water I can help them,� Dorn said. �If they�re drowning I can drag them back or stay with them until help arrives.�
Similarly, 16-year-old Richlands High student Shakaya Kloppenborg said her three years at camp have provided her with invaluable life skills.
Kloppenborg has learned CPR at camp in the past, but this year it changed, she said.
�Instead of mouth-to-mouth it�s more important to get the heart pumping,� she said.
Kloppenborg said she enjoys camp and acquiring these abilities because not many people know how to save someone�s life in adverse situations.
�I think more teenagers should be coming to this camp,� she said. �It�s awesome.�
Kloppenborg said her favorite part of camp this year was the hands-on obstacle course with the Jacksonville Fire Department, where they had to tote fire hoses through second-story windows, walk balance beams and climb ladders.
Kelly also gave the kids a course on how to investigate fires and tasked them with the job of identifying the origin of fires.
Friday, the campers learned about fire rescue in North Topsail Beach. The day started in the classroom, and then the kids headed out to the water after lunch, Miles said.
They spent the afternoon learning different techniques and rescue procedures for people stranded in the water. Campers spent time in the water and were in turn rescued by the Water Rescue Team.
Kloppenborg said this year has been especially exciting because of the increase in hands-on activities.
Anyone who is interested in participating in the camp is encouraged to contact the Onslow County Emergency Services office at 910-347-4270.


The champagne is on ice, a confetti cannon is ready for launch, and somewhere, an established silversmith is practicing a trade he's come to know all too well since 2006. Jimmie Johnson closed in on his third consecutive Sprint Cup Series championship Sunday at Phoenix International Raceway with a third straight of another kind: a win in the Valley of the Sun. Johnson dominated the Checker O'Reilly Auto Parts 500 Presented by Pennzoil with a performance that's become familiar to fans in Phoenix. By leading 217 of 313 laps in the No. 48 Chevrolet, Johnson notched his seventh victory of 2008 and became the first driver in PIR's 21-year Sprint Cup Series history to win in three consecutive races on the one-mile oval. Davey Allison, Jeff Burton, Dale Earnhardt Jr., and Kevin Harvick have all won two in a row at Phoenix. Though he started on the pole, Johnson surrendered the lead on the race's opening lap to Jamie McMurray, who held the point through Lap 21. Eventual runner-up Kurt Busch controlled the track until Lap 80, holding the lead on both ends of a 23-minute, 37-second red flag for a rare Arizona rain shower. Johnson was the boss for much of the race's remainder, leading for stretches of 20, 102, and the final 95 laps to coast to Gatorade Victory Lane. McMurray, Carl Edwards, and Denny Hamlin rounded out the top five. Dale Earnhardt Jr., Kevin Harvick, Kyle Busch, Jeff Burton, and David Ragan finished in order to complete the top 10. A mere 36th-place finish at Homestead-Miami next week will give Johnson the championship. Even if second-place Edwards wins and leads the most laps - a 195-point day - Johnson would clinch the title with the 36th-place finish. Johnson can also clinch the Sprint Cup by finishing 37th and leading at least one lap, or by finishing 39th and leading the most laps.

The art of suspenseful fiction
Keep readers on the edge of their seats with these eight pro tips.
Learn pro tips to writing suspenseful fiction.
I recently finished writing a YA contemporary thriller, and as so often happens with a first draft, the story was there, but it wasn't yet…thrilling. The suspense was MIA. That makes sense, though, because the first draft is where writers tell the story to themselves. Essentially, it's them figuring stuff out. The next draft(s) are for other people, and that's when the suspense really needs to ramp up as we tell the story to our readers. So, how can our revision processes crank up the suspense so that readers don't dare put the book down?
Here are the strategies I've been using to good effect to make my thriller, well, thrilling.
The power of clocks. There's no time for a story to meander when some type of countdown is in play. Readers will continue to wonder: Will the hero make it in time? Will the problem be solved before [insert disaster that happens at a specific, promised time]? That wondering leads to worrying, and worrying leads to suspense. Go re-watch High Noon or reread Agatha Christie's And Then There Were None to see just how powerful a time constraint can be.
Trust the cliffhanger. USA Today bestselling author Don Bruns admits that he's a fan of the late-great Edward Stratemeyer, one of the most prolific writers in the world (with 1,300+ books). "He had a simple but effective solution for keeping readers going," Bruns says about the mind behind The Rover Boys, Nancy Drew, The Hardy Boys, The Bobbsey Twins, and more. "Every chapter ended with a cliffhanger." Leave things unresolved at the end of a chapter, and readers HAVE to flip more pages to earn the resolution they crave.
Lie. Bruns points out that dialogue can also create suspense. How? Let your characters lie: "Little lies, big lies – the reader knows these are lies, and he wants to tell the person listening, 'Hey, they're LYING!'" What's going to happen as a result of the lie? Is it going to be discovered soon? Those questions make readers really dig in.
And a related trick is to give characters a secret: Concealing truths is sure to create conflict, and when a hidden truth finally emerges? Wow, that's potent stuff.
Too much is too much. Years ago, a kind-hearted editor wrote me a generous and helpful rejection for a story I'd submitted to a fantasy/sf magazine. In it, she explained that keeping everything at a fever pitch all the time is as fatal to a story as having no excitement or suspense at all. First and foremost, writers need to entertain, she wrote, so give them time to catch their breath before plunging headlong into the driving action and nail-biting moments. I followed her advice, and with my next story, I picked my moments to imperil the protagonist versus keep them in constant danger from start to finish. And I sold that story – my first professional fiction sale – as a result.
Questions minus answers. Bestselling techno-thriller author David Hagberg builds on the cliffhanger idea by noting how writers can create suspense by posing a question to the reader and then not answering it right away. Not at the end of the chapter. And maybe not for many chapters. "But you can never, ever, ever, leave questions unanswered," he warns. "At the very end, it all has to come together and meet at some central point."
Puzzle readers. If the hero has to deal with a riddle, puzzle, or challenge – especially one that emerges from a series of clues – readers can't wait to make their own guesses as they go. Think Dan Brown's The Da Vinci Code. Think Indiana Jones in Raiders of the Lost Ark. Think the Tri-Wizard tournament in J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter and Goblet of Fire. Think National Treasure.
Subscribe today to The Writer magazine for tips, industry news, reviews, and much more.
Controlling point of view. Plenty of writers love the ability to jump into the head of any character at any time. That's terrific, to be sure, since you can set up a situation where the reader knows something a character doesn't, and so we worry about them. But limiting your point of view to a single character creates a powerful immediacy that can pay off with a deeper sense of connection. Fear, worry, and emotion get more intense when we stick with the world of one character we're deeply invested in. Leaping from one character to another forces the reader to (re)forge a sense of connection every single time. That's a tall order, even for the most talented writers.
Surprise, surprise. To clarify – Surprise is giving the reader something they didn't expect at all (versus suspense, which manipulates the reader's existing expectations to good effect). Surprise is the secret weapon in my writer toolkit. For example, in my novel draft, I wanted a scene where the main character meets with a secretive world-class hacker in the middle of a Harry Potter convention to learn more about a mysterious government group called Prometheus. I had no idea that a black ops agent was going to use her sniper rifle to take out the hacker, right in the middle of a crowd of Hogwarts-costumed people, just as he was about to spill his secrets. Who's going to stop reading when the hacker's suddenly down for the count and the well-armed and clearly-deadly shooter gives chase to the main character through a crowd of Dumbledores and stumbles into a live Quidditch match? Not me as the writer. And not the reader, either, I'm guessing. Don't go overboard with surprises. But one or two well-placed doozies can keep the story trucking along.
Real life isn't all that suspenseful, so it's understandable that early drafts of stories, too, aren't chock full of reader-pleasing suspense. But if your revision process includes using time-tested tactics to engage readers and make them yearn to know more, your final drafts will be read in one breathless sitting, and readers will become fans who eagerly await your next story.

Abolishing The West (contd.): The Gottfried Analysis
Americans have a wide choice of worries to worry about. We can worry about terrorists, war in the Middle East, snipers, job security, teen shooting sprees, the stock market, political leadership, badly educated kids, political correctness, civil liberties, disease carrying mosquitoes, environmental degradation, sexually active preteens, sexism, racism, reverse discrimination, lawsuits. Just name it. Probably it is a recognized worry.
The above are worries we know about. Graver worries remain unknown to the vast majority. Authors write books to inform us so that we are not taken unawares. In a current national bestseller, Wealth and Democracy, Kevin Phillips warns against machinations of interest groups and the rich that produce unacceptably large disparities of income and wealth from which, Phillips promises, untoward consequences will follow.
Blaming the rich was a New Deal technique. Paul Gottfried finds a new and original worry: The U.S. government has transmogrified from an accountable government into an intrusive therapeutic administrative state with many Orwellian overtones.
Gottfried's new book, Multiculturalism and the Politics of Guilt, is a speculative work. It posits the advent of a secular theocracy preoccupied with controlling thought and expression and with modifying social behavior in order to ameliorate injustices inflicted on victims (Third World peoples, women, homosexuals and the disabled) by victimizers (white Christian men).
Gottfried's book is chilling, because the author is a learned and well-read scholar who is on top of political, legal, and ideological developments in the U.S. and Europe. The well documented and referenced analysis that Gottfried provides conveys a comprehensive understanding of the intellectual atmosphere now regnant in the West and why this intellectual outlook is dangerous to liberty.
Just as in Oceania in Orwell's 1984, Western Europe has enacted laws against "crimes of opinion." Gottfried reports that every year many German journalists and scholars are tried by the government in courts for "inciting the public." This charge is subjective and includes expressing unprogressive and insensitive opinions. Gottfried says that more Germans are languishing in prison for this Orwellian infraction than were in East German prisons before the fall of communism.
To propose immigration restrictions is evidence of xenophobia, which is in the process of being criminalized in the European Union. As well, it is prohibited to question details of the Holocaust and to deprecate Islam.
Recently, when Austrian politician Jorg Haider rallied Austrians to control immigration, the European Monitoring Centre on Racism and Xenophobia quickly set up in Vienna to report on Haider's "assault on democracy." Austria was boycotted by the European Union until Haider resigned.
In the name of protecting racial minorities, the British government has clamped controls on speech and behavior of the native-born population. Political elites in the U.K. consider the Magna Carta and the English Bill of Rights less important than compelling Britons to acquiesce to the presence and ways of Third World immigrants.
In the United States, environments, behaviors, and expressions deemed to be offensive to racial minorities, feminists and homosexuals are repressed by law or administrative action. Public officials and school teachers have been fired or disciplined for using the word, "niggardly," because poorly educated and over-sensitized blacks mistook this fine old English word for a racial slur. A recent court case in Idaho treated a verbal assault against a "protected minority" more seriously than it treated that minority's physical assault against a white woman.
Gottfried believes that a Protestant sense of guilt is blameworthy in creating public pliancy with government policies that disadvantage whites and diminish liberties in order to make restitution to "oppressed minorities." He describes "the fusion of a victim-centered feminism with the Protestant framework of sin and redemption."
Gottfried believes that the intrusive therapeutic administrative state has already begun the process of breaking down the inherited identities of Germans, British, French and Americans in order to reconstruct society as a multicultural heaven-on-earth where prejudice is forbidden.
Mass immigration from the Third World is a useful instrument of change employed by the therapeutic administrative state to deconstruct the character and history of a majority population. Throughout the once confident West, a political situation has been created in which only native-born whites—victimizers—can be legally discriminated against.
Gottfried believes that the days are gone when democracy meant self-rule. Today democracy means "regime change" - in the sense of government reconstructing our values and identities in order to achieve a culture of inclusiveness and diversity regardless of the desires of the majority population.
This agenda gives government powers that consign freedom of conscience, freedom of expression, freedom of association, the Constitution, the English Bill of Rights, national sovereignty, and facts themselves to the trash can of history.

In Jakarta, monkeys that have been dressed up and used to perform as street buskers may be getting a much deserved retirement and rehabilitation.
The Jakarta Animal Aid Network has been campaigning for a change due to the abusive conditions the monkeys have endured. According to a spokeswoman, these include having their teeth cut out, being starved, and being forced to hang upside down for long periods of time in order to become submissive.
According to BBC news Asia, Governor Joko Widodo made the decision to end the street performances because he wanted to save the monkeys, as well as protect humans from the diseases they may carry. Such diseases have included rabies, tuberculosis, hepatitis and the bacterial disease, leptospirosis.
ABC News reports that the neighboring town of Bandung will also be banning monkey shows. Hopefully, the trend continues and the citizens of Jakarta will be able to sustain themselves wiith more humane occupations.

The lyrics of the song are written from the viewpoint of a lady who has been hurt by love and is now out to break people's hearts.

Analyzing Taylor Swift's "Blank Space" Music Video's Themes and Images
Over two billion people have watched Taylor Swift's "Blank Space" music video on YouTube, which has gone down in pop culture history as an iconic work of art. The 2014 video's debut is a spectacular visual extravaganza that portrays the tale of a failed affair. The video is rife with allusions to symbols that allude to the themes of obsession, loneliness, and heartbreak.
The first image in the film is of an opulent home that is encircled by a white picket fence. The environment is an idealised image of love, which many people aspire to. Swift's attire, a white gown, emphasises the notion of a storybook romance even more. But as the film goes on, it becomes increasingly obvious that the marriage is doomed. Swift's persona is revealed to be possessive, envious, and hopelessly in love, which ultimately results in the breakdown of the relationship.
Symbolism abounds in "Blank Spacegraphics. "'s Mirrors are frequently depicted around Swift, which might be interpreted as a metaphor for her own process of self-reflection. The mirrors also symbolise how she is continually debating who she is and what she stands for. The white picket fence also serves as a reminder of the idealistic kind of love she aspires to.
Swift exits the estate in the last moments of the music video, signalling the breakdown of their romance. The picket fence is shattered as she leaves, symbolising the total demise of her perfect conception of love.
The "Blank Space" music video by Taylor Swift depicts the story of a relationship gone awry in a way that is artistically spectacular. The imagery is rife with symbolism that speaks to the themes of obsession, loneliness, and heartbreak. Swift is able to convey her point about the perils of an idealised conception of love through the use of these graphics.
Examining "Blank Space" by Taylor Swift's production and musicality
The ambitious and catchy pop song "Blank Space" by Taylor Swift displays both her outstanding vocal range and compositional skills. The track's production is strong and vibrant, utilising a wide range of instruments and effects to provide a dreamy and emotional ambiance. The bass delivers a powerful and driving rhythm, while the track's composition is built around a straightforward yet effective loop of both acoustic and electric guitars. The different synth and voice effects enhance the mood as the drums intermittently enter and exit the mix, adding a dynamic and exciting element.
One of the song's strongest qualities is its musicianship. The chorus has a strong, anthemic quality to it, while the lyrics are full of captivating melodies. Swift delivers a standout vocal performance, effortlessly switching between her powerful lower register and her ethereal upper register. The background vocals complement the track's overall emotional quality while offering a pleasing counterpoint to the primary vocal.

Through the meticulous manipulation of sounds and effects, they are able to fully fulfil their vision for the music, producing a dynamic and captivating composition. It is the epitome of modern pop production and is destined to become a timeless piece.
Taylor Swift's "Blank Space" Music Video's Effect on Popular Culture
The November 2014 release of Taylor Swift's "Blank Space" music video left a significant and enduring impression on culture. Swift's reputation as a "serial dater" was humorously dramatised in the video's opening, which instantly went viral and has since come to represent Swift's career.
Over a billion people have watched the music video on YouTube. It went on to win four MTV Video Music Awards, including Video of the Year. This success was partly attributed to the song's memorable and accessible lyrics as well as the distinctive and engrossing graphics in the music video. Swift mockingly adopted her "crazy ex-girlfriend" persona in the music video, which was shot on an opulent mansion. A number of funny scenes that made fun of Swift's image as a heartbreaker were also included in the video.
The video's influence on popular culture has endured beyond only its own success. The idea of a "crazy ex-girlfriend" has become more common in popular culture, and the imagery from the film have been extensively mimicked and mocked. The song itself has also had a long-lasting impact, serving as the basis for numerous versions and remixes.
The popularity of "Blank Space" is evidence of how much Taylor Swift has influenced popular culture. Along with becoming a commercial hit, the song and music video have also established Swift's influence and career as an iconic figure.
Analyzing Taylor Swift's "Blank Space" Lyrics and Their Subversive Meaning
One song that stands out for its subversive message is "Blank Space" by Taylor Swift. The song seems like a standard love ballad on the surface, but the words have a deeper significance. We can determine the song's underlying themes by looking at the lyrics.
The song's opening line depicts what seems to be a flawless union. Swift and her boyfriend are described as "[walking] through the halls of [their] love" and as having a "love narrative [they] had crafted specifically for [them]." Swift talks of being able to "create [her] love in a day" in the song's chorus, which has a more menacing tone. This line suggests that Swift is exploiting the relationship for her personal benefit and that she will simply end it once it has served her needs.
Swift claims in the second verse that she can "find out what [they] want" and "make the bad guys good for a weekend." This line serves as an illustration of how Swift takes advantage of her relationships and manipulates her partners to achieve her goals. Swift talks on her ability to "turn the good guys nasty" in this verse, giving the song's chorus a darker, more menacing meaning. According to this lyric, Swift is using her relationships to transform the people she is with into less desirable versions of themselves.
Swift talks of "playing the fool" as the song's bridge takes on a darker tone. Swift may be aware of her destructive conduct, but this song suggests that she is too far gone to take any action to stop it. Swift talks about how she can "make the best of them all" in the song's final verse, which reinforces this concept even further. This line implies that Swift has grown so accustomed to controlling her relationships that she can do so without feeling guilty.
The hidden meaning of Taylor Swift's song "Blank Space" can be found by carefully reading its lyrics. The lyrics relate to Swift's manipulation of her relationships for her personal gain, even though the song may initially seem to be just another conventional love song.
How "Blank Space" by Taylor Swift broke the record for the most watched music video on YouTube
When Taylor Swift's "Blank Space" became the most-watched music video on YouTube, it set a record. The video, which was published in 2014, exceeded two billion views in May 2020, breaking the previous record.
The song, which was co-written by Swift and Max Martin, can be found on Swift's fifth studio album, "1989." It has a pop-rock sound and the lyrics "So it's going to be forever, or it's going to go down in flames" in the chorus.
Swift plays a greedy femme fatale in the Joseph Kahn-directed music video. Swift plays an affluent socialite in the video who goes on a violent rampage after her beau falls short of her expectations.
The 2015 MTV Video Music Prizes nominated the video for five awards, including Video of the Year, due to its enormous popularity. Both the Best Female Video and Best Pop Video prizes went to it.
Since then, the music video has developed into an iconic part of popular culture that has been mocked and cited in a number of movies, TV series, and other works of art. It is a well-liked option for karaoke sing-alongs as well.
The fact that Taylor Swift's music has a wide audience around the world and that her videos can be captivating and unforgettable is evidence of this record-breaking success. "Blank Space" is set to remain one of the most watched music videos of all time with its ironic spin on the seductress archetype.
With its 2.2 billion Youtube views, "Blank Space" by Taylor Swift has, all things considered, instantly become a classic. The song's lyrics are about a hypothetical romance between Swift and a man she falls in love with but ultimately dumps because of her own anxieties. The song is ultimately a pleasant and catchy pop-rock anthem that appeals to the emotions and experiences of many listeners despite its dark and deep topics. It makes sense that the song has become so well-known on YouTube and elsewhere.
