Britney Spears' music video for "Toxic" shows her transition from a Disney star into a mature woman. Through various costume changes that showcase her sexuality and imply danger, she escapes her previous innocent image. One scene depicts her climbing a building in dark clothes to poison a man, representing her struggle in the industry. The video focuses solely on Britney through close-ups and shots that emphasize her body. Editing matches the fast beat of the song to keep the style rapid and consistent with the lyrics.
The document discusses the results of an online survey about a music video. 11 people responded to the survey. Based on the feedback:
- 100% of respondents thought the video contained the right codes and conventions of the heavy rock/metal genre.
- The most popular scene was the "devil's lair" while the least popular scenes had lighting that did not fit the mood of the song.
- While most camera shots were effective, more variety could have improved the video.
- The editing matched the tempo of the song successfully.
- Limitations prevented optimal locations, costumes, and representation of the intertextual elements in the video.
The document appears to be a list or outline containing over 200 sequentially numbered sections across various chapters and subsections. It is difficult to discern the specific content or meaning from the sparse numerical listings alone. The document seems to organize some type of extensive hierarchical information into a structured outline format.
The music video is based on the biblical story of the Last Supper, with the band members sitting around a dinner table. Taylor Momsen portrays Mary Magdalene, who begins to lose her mind while singing the song's lyrics. She crawls on the table, tips it over, and rips flowers apart, representing her mental deterioration. The video focuses on Momsen's sexualized performance to engage the target audience through voyeurism. It aims to depict Mary Magdalene's grief and insanity after Jesus' crucifixion through Momsen's intense acting and the breakdown of her character.
The document discusses Paramore's music video for their song "Decode" and how it draws influence from the Twilight film series. The music video is set primarily in the woods, similar to many scenes in Twilight. It uses various camera shots and editing techniques to emphasize the band, location, and emotions. One unusual effect has the lead singer appearing to float by keeping her still while the background moves.
The music video focuses on a man running away from the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in Pompeii. He is dressed in all black, making him look mysterious. Other people have black eyes, showing they were affected by the volcanic ash. The video uses establishing shots to show the dark, empty location and handheld camera work to chase the character as he runs through different areas, showing he is in danger. By the end, his eyes have also turned black, showing the ash has caught up to him.

Community based water supply and management system case istanbulAnn Obae
The SECODE project in Nyalenda slums in Kenya helped bridge water divides through a community-based water supply and management system. It reduced the distance to access water, improved water quality, and lowered water costs. Stakeholders like community groups and government agencies were involved. The project established water kiosks, toilets, and water connections to benefit over 240 households. It aims to be sustainable through continued capacity building, community ownership, and expanding the approach to more of Kisumu's slums. The way forward is to support more community organizations to adopt this approach and provide more training.

This document discusses open access in Algeria. It begins by defining open access as free availability of scholarly articles online, allowing anyone to read, distribute, and use the articles. It then discusses the benefits of open access, including more citations, participation in knowledge creation, and innovation. The document notes efforts taken in Algeria to support open access, including pay and open access databases available through the National Documentation System. It provides an overview of the Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ) and its mission to index and provide access to quality open access journals. Finally, it outlines DOAJ's journal evaluation process and criteria for obtaining a DOAJ Seal.
