    ERASMUS SCHOOL OF ECONOMICS DEPARTMENT OF BUSINESS ECONOMICS - MARKETING MASTER THESIS It's All in the Lyrics: The Predictive Power of Lyrics Date : August, 2014 Name : Maarten de Vos Student ID : 331082 Supervisor : Dr. F. Deutzmann Abstract: This research focuses on whether it is possible to determine popularity of a specific song based on its lyrics. The songs which were considered were in the US Billboard Top 40 Singles Chart between 2006 and 2011. From this point forward, k-means clustering in RapidMiner has been used to determine the content that was present in the songs. Furthermore, data from Last.FM was used to determine the popularity of a song. This resulted in the conclusion that up to a certain extent, it is possible to determine popularity of songs. This is mostly applicable to the love theme, but only in the specific niches of it.

  • 20 Facts About Waste and Recycling Did You Know That…
    20 Facts About Waste and Recycling Did you know that… 1. The UK produces more than 100 million tonnes of waste every year, one tonne is about the weight of a small car. In less than two hours, the waste we produce would fill the Albert Hall in London, every eight months it would fill Lake Windermere, the largest and deepest lake in England! 2. On average, each person in the UK throws away their own body weight in rubbish every seven weeks. 3. The average household in the UK produces more than a tonne of waste every year. Put together, this comes to a total of 31 million tonnes per year, equivalent to the weight of three and a half million double-decker buses, a queue of which would go around the world two and a half times. 4. Every year we produce about 3% more waste than the year before. This might not sound much but, if we carry on at this rate, it means that we will double the amount of waste we produce every 25 years. 5. The average UK family throws away 6 trees worth of paper in their household bin a year. 6. Paper and card make up about a fifth of the typical household dustbin. About half of this consists of newspapers and magazines. 7. Two-thirds of paper is recycled, making it one of the main materials recycled in the UK. 8. Each Christmas as much as 83 square kilometers of wrapping paper ends up in UK rubbish bins, enough to cover an area larger than Guernsey, one of the Channel Islands.

  • Wintersowing Notes - Lynn Watson Garden Hungry People, You Can Start Planting Seeds for Spring Right Now
    Wintersowing Notes - Lynn Watson Garden hungry people, you can start planting seeds for spring right now. Plant annual, perennial, and vegetable seeds. Germination is inside mini-greenhouses of translucent plastic recyclables: (Clear milk jugs and pop bottles). No indoor light set up and no inside watering. Plant, then, place containers in the snow. Keep sowing containers of seeds all winter. Plants grown outside = need no hardening off. Transplants go into spring gardens. Supplies: *Translucent Milk/Water jugs/Liter pop bottles * Warm Water * Germination mix * Plant Seeds Bypass Hand Shears/ Steak Knife * Shallow Plastic tubs (2) Preparing Containers: Selecting Containers - The container must hold enough germination mix for the roots and provide headroom for the sprouts. Containers can dry out quickly on a warm spring day; use ½ gallon milk jugs, water jugs and pop bottles so you can put deeper potting mix in them. The container must be translucent enough to let sufficient light in for your seedlings; check that you can see your finger through the plastic from the inside. Re-inflate squashed ones by filling with hot water. Rinse all containers with hot soapy water. Rinse well. Ventilation and Drainage - You must have sufficient ventilation holes (top) and drainage holes in the bottom of your containers to allow rain/snow melt to enter, ventilate and drain freely to avoid seed rot. The soil should be able to retain sufficient water to allow germination. Cutting Steps: If you choose milk jugs or pop bottles, recycle the cap the (Or save them for pot feet.) Use a stiff steak knife or bypass cutters to make cuts.

Although its gender and race relations have historically been problematic, they have recently transformed in particular ways. This study examines the forty-one best-selling rap videos of 2007– 2008. Through a qualitative content analysis of videos and lyrics several themes emerged. Hip-hop’s focus on conspicuous consumption, buttressed by the success of entrepreneurial rap moguls, has merged with strip club culture to create a new gender relation based on sexual transaction.

  • United States Environmental Protection Agency
    United States Environmental Protection Agency Recycling Basics http://www2.epa.gov/recycle/recycling-basics Recycling is the process of collecting and processing materials that would otherwise be thrown away as trash and turning them into new products. Recycling can benefit your community and the environment. Benefits of Recycling Reduces the amount of waste sent to landfills and incinerators; Conserves natural resources such as timber, water, and minerals; Prevents pollution by reducing the need to collect new raw materials; Saves energy; Reduces greenhouse gas emissions that contribute to global climate change; Helps sustain the environment for future generations; Helps create new well-paying jobs in the recycling and manufacturing industries in the United States. Is recycling worthwhile? http://waste.supportportal.com/link/portal/23002/23023/Article/19159/Is-recycling-worthwhile Recycling is one of the best environmental success stories of the late 20th century. Recycling, which includes composting, diverted 85 million tons of material away from disposal in 2010, up from 15 million tons in 1980. Recycling turns materials that would otherwise become waste into valuable resources. As a matter of fact, collecting recyclable materials is just the first step in a series of actions that generate a host of financial, environmental, and societal returns. There are several key benefits to recycling. - Protects and expands U.S. manufacturing jobs and increases U.S. competitiveness in the global marketplace. - Reduces the need for landfilling and incineration. - Saves energy and prevents pollution caused by the extraction and processing of virgin materials and the manufacture of products using virgin materials. - Decreases emissions of greenhouse gases that contribute to global climate change.
