  • An Intelligent Technique to Customise Music Programmes for Their Audience
    Poolcasting: an intelligent technique to customise music programmes for their audience Claudio Baccigalupo Tesi doctoral del progama de Doctorat en Informatica` Institut d’Investigacio¶ en Intel·ligencia` Artificial (IIIA-CSIC) Dirigit per Enric Plaza Departament de Ciencies` de la Computacio¶ Universitat Autonoma` de Barcelona Bellaterra, novembre de 2009 Abstract Poolcasting is an intelligent technique to customise musical se- quences for groups of listeners. Poolcasting acts like a disc jockey, determining and delivering songs that satisfy its audience. Satisfying an entire audience is not an easy task, especially when members of the group have heterogeneous preferences and can join and leave the group at different times. The approach of poolcasting consists in selecting songs iteratively, in real time, favouring those members who are less satisfied by the previous songs played. Poolcasting additionally ensures that the played sequence does not repeat the same songs or artists closely and that pairs of consecutive songs ‘flow’ well one after the other, in a musical sense. Good disc jockeys know from expertise which songs sound well in sequence; poolcasting obtains this knowledge from the analysis of playlists shared on the Web. The more two songs occur closely in playlists, the more poolcasting considers two songs as associated, in accordance with the human experiences expressed through playlists. Combining this knowl- edge and the music profiles of the listeners, poolcasting autonomously generates sequences that are varied, musically smooth and fairly adapted for a particular audience. A natural application for poolcasting is automating radio pro- grammes. Many online radios broadcast on each channel a random sequence of songs that is not affected by who is listening.

  • Baptize/Baptized Definition of “Baptize”
    BAPTISM/BAPTIZE/BAPTIZED DEFINITION OF “BAPTIZE” EPHESIANS 4:5 = ONE LORD, ONE FAITH, ONE BAPTISM GREEK DEFINITION OF ‘BAPTIZE’ The word ‘baptize’ is a Greek word that has been transliterated into the English language. The English language did not have a word for the Greek word ‘baptize’ so the Greek word was borrowed and put into the English language, retaining its Greek definition. In other words, the translators taught us a Greek word and the Greek words meaning. Baptize is from two (2) Greek words ‘BAPTO’ & BAPTIZO BAPTO -- STRONG'S GREEK DICTIONARY, 911[1] bapto bap'-to 1. a primary verb; to whelm, i.e. cover wholly with a fluid; (by implication) to stain (as with dye): 2. --dip. We see that there are two definitions for the root word ‘bapto’... one is to ‘cover wholly with a fluid’ and the other definition is to ‘dip’There are only three places in the Greek text where the word ‘bapto’ is found and in each case this word was translated into English as ‘dip’. Luke 16:24 (KJV) And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame. John 13:26 (KJV) Jesus answered, He it is, to whom I shall give a sop, when I have dipped it. And when he had dipped the sop, he gave it to Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon. Revelation 19:13 (KJV) And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God.

  • Fair Housing Information Sheet # 6
    Fair Housing Information Sheet # 6 Right to Emotional Support Animals in "No Pet" Housing Advocates and professionals have long recognized the benefits of assistive animals for people with physical disabilities, including Seeing Eye dogs or hearing dogs that are trained to perform simple tasks such as carrying notes and alerting their owners to oncoming traffic or other environmental hazards. Recent research suggests that people with psychiatric disabilities can benefit significantly from assistive animals, too. Emotional support animals have been proven extremely effective at ameliorating the symptoms of these disabilities, such as depression and post-traumatic stress disorder, by providing therapeutic nurture and support. See Psychiatric Service Animals page for information about other issues and the 2010 definitions of service and companion animals under the ADA, the Fair Housing Act, and Section 504. See also comments filed with the Department of Justice (in 2008) and the Department of Transportation(December 2009) addressing proposed regulations governing the use of psychiatric service animals, described in our December 8, 2009 Action Alert. The Fair Housing Amendments Act of 1988, Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, and Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act protect the right of people with disabilities to keep emotional support animals, even when a landlord's policy explicitly prohibits pets. Because emotional support and service animals are not "pets," but rather are considered to be more like assistive aids such as wheelchairs, the law will generally require the landlord to make an exception to its "no pet" policy so that a tenant with a disability can fully use and enjoy his or her dwelling.
