what's up guys it's Dono I got a question basically asking for different

styles of rap so I'm gonna cover a couple different ways that you can get

into rap and styles you can use now this might be a little bit different than

what you're thinking because there's all sorts of subgenres but I'm going to look

at it a little bit more from the perspective of different idea blocks

that you can use to start writing lyrics and then you can style it up from there

I just want to be clear that I'm talking about kind of topics or general areas

not necessarily subgenres which have a lot to do with the style of instrumental

and the style of delivery that you put together because I think based on this

question it's gonna be a little bit more helpful to use these blocks alright so

the very first most common style of rap that you're gonna hear most of the time

is braggadocio braggadocio is the style of kind of self hype self aggrandizement

right this whole like I'm the best in the business everyone else is a witness

type of stuff like bars like that that you really just amp yourself up and talk

about how great you are now this is what people stereotypically think about when

they think about rap it's one style that you can approach but don't feel like

it's something you have to do because a lot of beginning rappers think that they

have to start with braggadocio because that's what their stereotype is you

don't have to do that there are other styles of rap which I will bring up a

couple for you the next style of rap that you can use is storytelling now

this should seem pretty straightforward it's just where you tell a story now the

thing that you really need to focus on if you're gonna be doing storytelling is

making sure that your details line up rap is very specific when you put a

story over a song in the sense that you only have as much space as is in the

instrumental unless of course you want to edit the instrumental but then maybe

your song is too long so if you want to really write a normal song with a story

in it you have to focus on how many bars you have pay attention to your story arc

that way it will make more sense a lot of times

what people starting out in this style do is they'll just start writing and

then all sudden they're out of space to continue talking about their topic

however this is a really great style for people who want to get in touch with

some of their stories and share them because it's really easy to just talk

about things that have happened to you and tell stories now you can also do

fiction stories it doesn't have to be things that happen to you but that's

often what people find most approachable another style that you can get into is

the technically intensive and by that I mean you really use a lot of poetic

techniques to make your lyrics stand out so this would be things like really deep

rhyme schemes a lot of wordplay a lot of alliteration other things that are

poetic techniques that are gonna make your lyrics stand out now a lot of times

when people do this they start saying stuff that isn't super clear or coherent

or sensical because to really mesh all these poetic

techniques together you don't always want a clear story arc great sometimes

it's easier to put a bunch of rhymes together in a way that doesn't quite

make sense but still sounds really good if this is the style that you're into so

if this is something you want to try really polish up on some of those

technical aspects of writing lyrics and you can start trying to write songs like

that another style that you can try to get into is like party or pop type stuff

and in this style there's not a very big emphasis on the lyrics but there is a

huge emphasis on finding things that are catchy so there's a lot of repetition a

lot of time spent making sure that the instrumental is something that really

gets people going or that they can relate to easily and then really

focusing on your chorus to make sure that that part is memorable the other

thing is with the lyrics being a little bit weaker you might want to throw in a

few clever lines but not so heavy that the listener has to really think for a

long time to get them because if they don't understand it then it's not gonna

really have that much impact so that's another style that you can kind of look

at an or think about another style that you can use is comedy again fairly

straightforward comedy rap has been around forever

all you have to do here is focus on setting up some different punchlines

setting up some things that are gonna be funny or maybe a scenario that ends up

being comical there is actually a separate skill of being able to write

comedy that you need to create comedic type rap this style you really need to

work on your timing just like you would for comedy and then a lot of times it

has lines that are written a little bit off or catch people off-guard or are

misleading so that you can set up these comedy punchlines finally we've got

message driven rap which is kind of related to storytelling or at least it

can be but it doesn't have to be in the form of a story so maybe you have some

really strong beliefs about the environment or something you can write a

song where the intent of the song is to get the message across that you're

trying to tell people so another thing that people call this sometimes is

political but it's basically rapping with the intent of sharing some sort of

opinion or swaying some types of belief it doesn't have to be that intense

either you could just be expressing your love for like ice cream or something

right it could be something pretty low-key but you just have a message that

you really want to get across but it's not necessarily in the form of a story

you're just trying to express a specific idea about a topic hopefully that gives

you a couple ideas for different blocks that you can start in when you start

trying to write lyrics and style your music obviously there's quite a bit of

overlap between these different styles but when you do that you start getting

into higher levels of skill so this is for people still trying to figure out

kind of what they want to do these are some areas for you to explore and try

out to see what style fits you best there's also a ton of different ways

that you could break this out actually if you guys have ideas for different

genres or subgenres or ways that you would construct the different types of

rap I would love to hear what you've got but beyond that that's all I've got for

How to negotiate your home purchase price - Duration: 8:46.

Welcome to Homebuyer's School, brought

to you by Brookfield Residential

Get ready to learn strategies, tactics and tips

on the home buying process.

Join Karl Yeh as he talks with experts

with the savvy and experience to help you

find your perfect home

Hello and welcome to another

edition of Homebuyer's School.

I'm your host Karl Yeh, this is

Cory McDonald community manager with

Brookfield residential and in this

episode we're gonna answer the question

I think a lot of people really want to

know is: When can I actually negotiate a

home purchase price and what's the best

way to do it?

100 percent, I always tell people it never hurts to

ask. You're never gonna get anything

if you don't ask for it. With that being

said, I can't always guarantee that what

you're asking is gonna be accepted or if

whoever you're buying from is gonna be

able to negotiate it does play into

effect a lot of variables.

There's a lot of variables that would go

into is that seller willing to take a

little bit less in order to move them

quickly or are their margins too

slim and they they can't sell it for that low of a cost.

So I think the biggest one

that would play into effect would be

just the general state of the market.

Is the market dictating that there

should be some leeway in the price? Or is

it saying the opposite? Is it saying that

you're getting the best possible value

at this time? So that does play

definitely into the the ability to

negotiate specifically on resale as

well. If your home isn't selling,

for the price that you have it listed,

means you're priced ineffectively and you should be

negotiating or looking at a change in

the price. Again variables that would

differentiate this would be larger homes-

If you're looking at a multi-million

dollar estate home on average they're

gonna take longer to sell just because

there's not as many as those suppliers.

So as you get to more and more affordable price homes

there's more of a market for those so

those are typically into the lower

average days on market. So as far as resale

that's what plays into your

leverage for negotiating. Now is there a

difference between resale and a new home?

There would be, and the biggest

thing would be what it costs a builder

to build a home. Again, it would

really depend on the size of the home

and the style of purchase, but a lot

of the the people that come in and look

at a new builder and they say, "These are big

corporations and they have so much money

they're making, look how much money I'm

spending on a home, they have

room they can drop 50 60 100 thousand

dollars on the price of the home and still make

three to seven hundred thousand on a home."

And that's not the case right. Especially

with labor costs and the costs of

land that the house is being built on,

the margins aren't actually as big as

one would initially think especially as you

get into say the condos, the

townhomes or even some of those

single-family homes

builders have their their margins what

they're comfortable making on the home

versus what they can sell it for.

So if they have their their ratio and it

drops below that what they're comfortable

making on the home they can't fiscally

stay afloat if they're not accepting at

least a bare minimum on it. Is there a

kind of a- like in your experience, is

there like a cut-off that, "Hey you know

what I can't really go any lower," but are

there any things that you would try to

offer? Sometimes and a lot of that does

depend on on the market as well.

And that has been a way that people have

been able to work into, "Well if you can't

work on the price, is there anything else

that can be added? Can I get X

amount of months for no condo fees or can

that washer and dryer that I wanted

upgrade to, is there a way that that can

be included as well?"

So sometimes that is a really smart way of

working around it. Entirely though it

still comes down to what's fair

in the market, and is that still

affordable for the seller or the builder

to be able to to go forward with it.

And in your opinion, like I'm sure

you've, you know work with a lot of

customers and they've come in with a

number of offers. Do you have any advice

or best ways to negotiate that purchase

price? Because I'm hoping someone's

going to come to you-

Now and here's here's an interesting

point is is some of it is cultural right?

That there are some cultures that like

negotiating, and they don't feel they're

being respected if they don't get a deal

right? Or if they don't at least present

an opportunity to negotiate and

sometimes you have to be as sensitive

to those different cultural beliefs,

but at the same time sometimes as a

seller- as a builder, your hands are tied

as far as what what margins you can make,

and the actual building cost of the homes

and what we're saying is fair market

value of the home. So obviously we want

to be respectful when accepting an offer or when

presenting one too. Everybody always has

the ability to walk away, right and

that's what plays into this is

that if it's not the right fit if it's

outside of your comfort level in order for financing

then you have the right to walk away but

it has to be good for both parties and

in order for it to be a successful sale.

Makes sense, any other tips that

you- like when you go in and negotiate

with a salesperson, what are some of the

things that you would try to it helps to

be educated. And then sometimes-

So watching these videos? These videos would

be a fantastic way to get

yourself educated. But whether

that's even going on some websites that

have MLS listings, or using a realtor

professional to get some of that

information. So if you have some of the

market equivalents in that area, say hey

here's three of the homes, they're sold

in the last 60 days here's what their

fair market value was and this is why I

think that we should be able to purchase

at X price versus what you're

advertising because having that

definitely can sway a little bit right?

I can't always guarantee that that's

going to work based on the times and

what the economy saying, but that

definitely helps is if you are educated

and instead of just picking a random

number -yeah as close to free as

possible let's get there right instead of just throwing

that number out there. So that goes

into another question - How do I

decide what to offer for the home,

like yeah I can try to meet you at you

know the price but how like,

what are some of the things that I need

to consider on when I'm making that offer?

This kind of ties into another point is,

before even looking for a home, it really helps

if you know what's important to you

in your home, and I'm not thinking

specific upgrades, I'm not thinking

specific oh it has to have three

bedrooms but what makes the most sense

for your lifestyle? Right, are you okay

with two bedrooms because it's just

you and a roommate or you and a

guest room. You have a family, you

would need space for the family or a

yard space to play or something close by

with parks. So figuring out what needs in

a home are gonna fit your lifestyle

and that's the most important thing. If

you need that in a home then that's what

you have to be able to present with the

offer that has to be something that

you're considering with the purchase of

the home. So if if you've got six

kids and a rinky-dink washer and

dryer that's being presented,

you want to get that as well. That's

an item that that makes more

sense for your lifestyle right. So

instead of just saying I want upgraded

countertops just for the sake of having

countertops- Great countertops. Exactly

right, if it's something that meets

your lifestyle if it's something that

you need in the home based on what

you're looking for, then that's maybe a

better way to approach okay this is

something I need this is why I needed in

the home as opposed to just give me free.

I just want free for the sake of free.

So did you have any other tips from a

negotiation perspective never hurts to

ask. I'm just gonna repeat it right.

You're not always gonna get the answer

you want but never hurts to ask. For sure.

All right well thank you very much

that was excellent today. Definitely

something that when I'm purchasing my

home I'll definitely think it was-

especially the lifestyle right, and

ensuring that that home meets the

lifestyle that I want. Absolutely.

we'll catch you next time.

How Social Media Makes Us Angry All the Time | Molly Crockett - Duration: 7:24.

We live in a world now where there is an economic model that strongly incentivizes online platforms

like Facebook, Google, Twitter to capture as much of our attention as possible.

The way to do that is to promote content that is the most engaging.

And what is the most engaging?

Moral content.

There was a recent study that came out of NYU recently that characterized the language

in tweets.

And this study, which was led by William Brady and Jay Van Bavel and colleagues, found that

each "moral emotional" word in a tweet increased the likelihood of a retweet by 20

percent.

So content that has moral and emotional qualities to it, of which moral outrage is the poster

child, is the most engaging content.

And so that means that the algorithms that select for what is shown to all of us in our

newsfeeds are selecting for the content that's going to be the most engaging, because that

draws the most attention—because that creates the most revenue through ad sales for these

companies.

And so this creates an information ecosystem where there's a kind of natural selection

process going on, and the most outrageous content is going to rise to the top.

So this suggests that the kinds of stories that we read in our newsfeeds online might

be artificially inflated in terms of how much outrage they provoke.

And I've actually found some data that speaks to this.

So there was a study a few years ago by Will Hofmann and Linda Skitka, colleagues at the

University of Chicago where they tracked people's daily experiences with moral and immoral events

in their everyday lives.

And they pinged people's smartphones a few times a day and had them rate whether in the

past hour they had had any moral or immoral experiences.

And they had people rate how emotional they felt, out outraged they felt, how happy and

so on.

This data became publicly available and so I was able to reanalyze the data, because

these researchers had asked them: "Where did you learn about these immoral events?

Online, in person, on TV, radio, newspaper, et cetera?"

And so I was able to analyze this data and show that immoral events that people learn

about online trigger more outrage than immoral events that they learn about in person or

through traditional forms of media like TV, newspaper and radio.

So this supports the idea that the algorithms that drive the presentation of news content

online are selecting that content that provokes perhaps higher levels of outrage than we even

see on the news.

And, of course what we see normally in our daily lives.

It's an open question, "What are the long term consequences of this constant exposure

to outrage triggering material?"

One possibility that has been floated in the news recently is: outrage fatigue—and I

think many of us can relate to the idea that—if you're constantly feeling outraged, it's

exhausting.

And there may be a limit to how much outrage we're able to experience day to day.

That is potentially harmful in terms of the long term social consequences, because if

we are feeling outraged about relatively minor things and that's depleting some kind of

reserve, that may mean that we're not able to feel outraged for things that really matter.

On the other hand there's also research in aggression showing that if you give people

the opportunity to vent their aggressive feelings about something that's made them mad, that

actually can increase the likelihood of future aggression.

So in the literature on anger and outrage there are two possibilities.

One being this long term depletion, "outrage fatigue".

The other being a kind of sensitization.

And we need to do more research to figure out which of those might be operating in the

context of online outrage expression.

It may be different for different people.

Social media is very unlikely to go away because it taps into the things that we find most

rewarding.

Connection with others, expressing our moral values, sharing those moral values with others,

building our reputation.

And, of course, what makes social media so compelling, and so addictive even, is the

fact that these platforms are really tapping into very ancient neural circuitries that

we know are involved in reward processing, in habit formation.

One intriguing possibility because the way these apps are designed are so streamlined—You

have stimuli icons that are so recognizable and familiar to all of us who use these apps.

And very effortless responses to like, to share, to retweet.

And then we get feedback, and that feedback in the form of likes and shares is delivered

at unpredictable times.

And unpredictable rewards, we know from decades of research in neuroscience, are the fastest

way to establish habit.

Now habit is a behavior that is expressed without regard to its long term consequences.

Just as someone who's habitually reaching for the bag of potato chips when they're

not hungry.

They're eating those potato chips, not to achieve some goal to satisfy their hunger,

but just mindlessly.

We might be mindlessly expressing moral emotions like outrage without actually necessarily

experiencing them strongly or desiring to express those so broadly the way that we just

do on social media.

And so I think it's really worth considering and having a conversation about whether we

want some of our strongest moral emotions, which are so core to who we are—Do we want

those under the control of algorithms whose main purpose is to generate advertising revenue

for big tech companies?

Ask the Vet - How much chocolate is toxic? - Duration: 0:45.

First, we would like to wish our patients and clients a happy and safe Halloween.

This time of year a common question we receive is around chocolate toxicity and how much

chocolate is too much?

And it's a difficult question because white chocolate isn't nearly as bad as milk chocolate,

which isn't as bad as dark chocolate, which isn't as bad as baking chocolate.

So it all depends on the type of chocolate your pet ingests and the size of your pet.

So if your dog or cat ingests any chocolate this holiday season we recommend you contact

your veterinarian to discuss the amount and determine is that level toxic, what signs

you need to watch for, and if your pet should be seen.

Have a happy and safe Halloween.
