Enjoyable experience
Even though we've visited the area several times, we had not climbed the rock. The climb was not difficult and the surrounding views were very nice. It was nice to see the Sigirya Frescos as they've been drawn centuries ago. Must visit if you are a lover of cultural heritage.

Amazing palace on top with an amazing view
Me and my brother climbed this rock, after the pidurangala rock. We climbed the Sigiriya rock around 2pm. It was not too hot, we brought a lot of water. The climb is really easy because it’s only stairs. The ancient palace on top is amazing to walk around. The view is also really incredible. We didn’t see any wasps. Only be careful with some dogs, because some can be a little aggressive.

Sigiriya rock climb with guide
The historical explanation of a guide adds so much more value. Do get a good guide we went with Mr. Albert.

Must see on your Sri Lankan itinerary
Well worth a visit. Recommend that you take one of the numerous guides who are at the entrance waiting for tourists to roll up. They all wear a uniform polo shirt so you know that they are offical guides, however as like anywhere you need to be prepared to negotiate a price. We paid $20 US for a guide for 3 hours, our guide was excellent giving you a lot of background to the fortress which you would not get from reading the information pamphlet you get given with your ticket. There are toilets located just by the ticket office, very clean but no toilet paper so make sure you take tissues. There is also a water station before you enter with purified drinking water where you can fill up your water bottle. Be prepared to climb up narrow stairs to get to the top, the view is amazing and worth the climb. When we went in Feb there were no hornets which we had read about however we were told that it was the wrong season. Beware of monkeys everywhere which is all part of the Sri Lankan experience. When you exit the fortress there are numerous toilet blocks which were all clean and well maintained, again take your tissues. Make sure you wear comfortable walking clothes, shoes, hat and take water, there is nowhere to purchase water along the way until the exit. We arrived about 9.30ish which we found to be fine, the heat was bearable, the timing of your visit will all be dependent on the time of year you go.

Climb worth the view
About 1200+2 steps on the top most point of the summit. This hill was developed by King Ravana and later occupied by Buddhists monks. These monks were then relocated by King Kashyapa and the hill was developed into a full fledged fort. This fort had a robust defence system containing concentric circles of water, quick sand, crocodiles and barracks of soldiers guarding the palaces.One gets to see remains of water fountains and swimming pools used by the kings of the past. Right next to the swimming pool is a huge elephant shaped stone. On the way up are soldiers barracks, a huge stone resting on a hill, paws of the lion and steps leading to the summit. Do note that the original lion head is no longer in place and only the paws can be seen. Once you reach the summit there is a series of ruins of walls, beautiful scenic view of the forests and a buddha statue in the distance which is the second largest standing statue in the world. (note: not on same this hill).On the way down, there is a cave with a few paintings and a mirror wall(a plastered wall) and resting rooms of the king. Followed by a cobra head shaped rock, an open conference area and another rock pass leading to the outward area where you can buy souvenirs.All in all, I would the say the place is worth visiting since it is a UNESCO heritage site and has a rich past. However things to keep in mind are:1. Guides are optional since every major check point has a bar code readable display and a placard of information.2. It can get extremely hot if you start after 8am. So plan to be there early and do not underestimate the number of steps.3. Steps are not even, damaged in some areas and extremely steep as well. Without proper posture one will definitely slip and injure themselves.4. After a tough climb do remember that all you will see there are ruins that do not speak anything about the history as such for a layman. Limited objects to see but the climb is definitely worth the view.5. Sellers need a bit of haggling and are very polite to tourists.6. Carry a bottle of water since it isn't sold until you reach the exit. Can be difficult on a humid day.7. Keep an eye on kids while you walk through the initial garden patches, since insects are not rare. But nothing to worry for a regular tourist.

Telling it how it is
My Husband and I were here 4 weeks ago and decided to go early in the morning at 7am as the heat and humidity was just horrid anyway and thought it would be less then, but it really wasn't. Anyway we went shortly after opening time which is at 7am. Now, we are both nearly 60 years old and totally unfit fatties and both of us have bad hearts, bad knees and ankles, plus me with an already sprained ankle from a collapsing bridge a week earlier, but hey, I wasn't going to come all this way from Australia and not climb this Sigiriya Rock right?. Anyway we climbed to the very top in 50 minutes from the very start to the very top, including a few stops in between to catch our breath and trying to stop out hearts from exploding, but just quietly were were so very proud of ourselves, so kudos to us. Now just a word of warning, for those of you who have really bad knees or ankles this climb is not for you, and if you have even the slightest fear of heights, this climb is definitely not for you. I'd say go as far as the Lions feet and that's it as it is really frightening after that especially if people are trying to get past you and your clinging to the edge of the rock for grim death while letting them pass. For those of you who are not scared of heights then go on up to the very top, the 360 degree view you will love and you get to see all the ruins also. I must say watch out for the scammers too who will approach you along the way up at different points, they will make conversation with you and try and help you get up rocks etc and they will start to tell you all about the rock and the history and then they will become your guide without you even knowing about it and it will cost you money, but if you want to use them then go ahead, these locals are desperate for money. Also when you get there, there is no signage, well in English anyway, to where you buy the entry tickets from, we found it a bit confusing where to go to get the tickets, and that's a walk in itself too. There are plenty of Tuk Tuks at the bottom when you come back down that will take you back to your Hotels at a reasonable price. Just be aware that where the Tuk Tuks will drop you off at the start where you buy your tickets from is not the same place where you finish up when you come back down from the rock, you seem to get rail roaded out a different exit to an other side of the rock so you end up having to go past all the souvenir stalls. Our rooky mistake was telling our Tuk Tuk driver to pick us up here where he dropped us off, and he failed to tell us this was not the spot you finish up at when you come down from the rock, so once we came down and realised this was not where we started from, we then had to figure out how to get back around to the other side of the rock where the entrance was to meet our tuk tuk driver who was waiting so patiently for us, it was a long walk in the heat. All in all, we were both glad we did it and didn't drop dead from heat exposure and blown heart valves. We never want to see another step again as long as we live, our knees and ankles were aching for days afterwards. But done it now and so a big TICK off our bucket list.

Waste of time and money
DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME, EFFORT AND MONEYThis is a over hyped place most probably by locals to attract tourists and extort money. There is nothing special about this place, other than steep climbing of a huge rock using steel staircase.Ticket for foreigners USD30 per person, USD15 for people from SAARC countries, for locals it is Sri Lankan Rupee 50/-.The steel staircase is very narrow and most of the part climbing up and down use the same narrow path, so it slow down the movement of the people. With so many people climbing up and down on the narrow staircase, there is a chance of stampede like situation. NOT AT ALL SAFE.I had been to many UNESCO sites, this one is a BIG disappointment. CLIMB PIDURANGALLA ROCK INSTEAD. BETTER VIEWS, MORE FUN AND MUCH CHEAPER.

Easily one of the highlights of our holiday.
Wow… this is just spectacular, walking through the grounds, past the fountains the rock of Sigiriya looms large in front.You then reach the foot of the rock at the entrance of the Lions Feet you start to climb the steps, and there are many, if you don’t have a good head for heights this may unnerve you a little, when you eventually get to the top the 360 degree views are awe inspiring. As you start to make your way down you climb up some spiral stairs to the see the paintings which are 2500 years old, the colours still vibrant today.

Big Bird Pegasus Summarization output is repeating itself

I am trying to use Big Bird Pegasus to summarize various long texts. The output is repeating the same concept in each sentence.
Here is my code using a news article I copied from NPR. The text is longer than the 4096 token limit, so it takes the first few thousand words from my input.

On a sleepy cul-de-sac amid the bucolic vineyards and grassy hills of California's Sonoma Valley, a $4 million house has become the epicenter of a summer-long spat between angry neighbors and a new venture capital-backed startup buying up homes around the nation. The company is called Pacaso. It says it's the fastest company in American history to achieve the "unicorn" status of a billion-dollar valuation — but its quarrels in wine country, one of the first regions where it's begun operations, foreshadow business troubles ahead.
Brad Day and his wife, Holly Kulak, were first introduced to Pacaso in May after a romantic sunset dinner in their yard. "And we just saw this drone, coming up and over our backyard," Day says. "And we're like, what is that?"
Pacaso denies directing or paying a drone operator to film the neighborhood. But its website does have drone photos of the house in question, located at 1405 Old Winery Court. It says it bought the photos after the fact.
Nonetheless, after the drone incident, Day and Kulak got suspicious about what was going on in their neighborhood. About a week later, their neighbors told them they were moving and selling their house to a limited liability corporation, or LLC. But they were super vague about it.
Day and Kulak began speaking with other residents on their cul-de-sac. One of them, Nancy Gardner, had learned from a friend in nearby Napa Valley about a new company called Pacaso that was buying houses in the area. The company was co-founded by a Napa resident, and it converts houses into LLCs. Pacaso then sells shares of these corporate houses to multiple investors. Gardner Googled Pacaso, and, sure enough, the house on their cul-de-sac was on its website. The company had named the house "Chardonnay" and was now selling investors the chance to buy a one-eighth share of it for $606,000.
Pacaso was founded in October 2020 by Austin Allison and Spencer Rascoff, two former executives at Zillow. The company is based in San Francisco, and as is typical of tech startups in the Silicon Valley area, its founders tell a lofty story about their business that's about more than just making money. The company says the motivation for the venture began when Allison and his wife, both based in Napa, bought a second home in Lake Tahoe. The night after they closed on the house, Allison says in a promotional video, he and his wife sat around a fire "thinking how appreciative we were to be second homeowners. And, from that moment, I've always been inspired about making the dream of second home ownership possible for more people."
To make second home ownership possible for more people — and, of course, make money — Pacaso uses a "fractional home ownership" model. They buy a house, lightly refurbish it, furnish it and then create an LLC for it. They then divvy up ownership of this corporatized house into eight fractions and sell those shares on their website.
If you buy a share in a house, you're able to stay in it 44 nights per year in increments that can't exceed 14 consecutive days per visit. You can also "gift" these stays to friends or family. Pacaso offers an app to handle the logistics of booking stays. It oversees management, maintenance and cleaning of the property. In exchange for all this, it charges 12% of the home's purchase price upfront and monthly fees going forward. If you buy a share in a house, you have to hold on to it for a year. After that, you can sell it and profit from any appreciation in the home's value (or be on the hook for any depreciation).
When Day, Kulak and their neighbors learned about Pacaso's business model, they were appalled. They saw the venture capital-backed company as invading their community and converting their neighbor's house into a revolving carousel of vacationers. They imagined endless parties, noise and cars overflowing their cul-de-sac. They worried those staying at "Chardonnay" would drive too fast and fail to heed local concerns about wildfires and droughts. But, most of all, they feared the Pacaso house and more like it would destroy their sense of community and turn their neighborhood into an "adult Disneyland."
The county, Day says, had designated their neighborhood an "exclusion zone," which bans Airbnb-style, short-term rentals to preserve the "residential character" of communities. But Pacaso argues that its clients are not short-term renters. They are co-owners of an LLC. This also means they don't have to pay the typical taxes on short-term rentals. Likewise, in the nearby town of St. Helena, Pacaso was trying to circumnavigate a city ban against timeshares with the same argument. Day says he and his neighbors saw Pacaso's newfangled business model as nothing more than a "glorified timeshare" with a legal strategy aimed at "skirting regulations that are designed to keep communities intact."
The cul-de-sac sprang into action. It formed an organization called Sonomans Together Opposing Pacaso, which, not coincidentally, has the acronym STOP. It contacted the county Board of Supervisors. It created an anti-Pacaso website and circulated an online petition. It flooded the local newspaper with op-eds and letters to the editor. It lobbied local real estate agents not to work with Pacaso. "It feels like we're waging a war by land, air and sea," Day says.
Protest signs festoon the neighborhood's lawns, fences and cars. They say things such as "Stop Pacaso" and "Not here, Pacaso!" Day's favorite sign reads, "The Pacaso house is the big one on the right with no soul."
The signs, of course, make the prospect of buying a share in the Pacaso house awkward, to say the least. Alfred Miller, however, bought a share in "Chardonnay" before ever seeing it in person. Miller is a risk management consultant based in Los Angeles. He believes in Pacaso's business model. And he likes wine and Sonoma's climate. As he researched "Chardonnay" online, he liked the modern architecture and pool, and he decided he'd buy a one-eighth share of the house. It wasn't until a couple weeks after he made the purchase that he first drove up to Sonoma and witnessed the spectacle around his new investment.
"So, imagine me as a new owner driving up, and I get to the corner of Old Winery Court," Miller says. "There's a full-on, professionally printed sign that says 'No Pacaso.' '' Miller then turned right onto Old Winery Court "and the more I drive into the neighborhood, the more signs I see. Brad Day has three vehicles in front of his house, and each vehicle has an anti-Pacaso sign on it. I pull into the driveway — there are two signs on each side of the property. I mean, it was not what I would call very welcoming."
As it did on Old Winery Court, controversy erupted in Napa after the company bought a home worth $1.13 million. That's about 35% higher than Napa's median home price. Pacaso insists it only buys luxury and ultra-luxury houses, and it therefore isn't competing with local middle-class families in the housing market. But this home, located two blocks from a high school, didn't quite fit its talking points. Some Napans were pissed. Pacaso says the house was the victim of trespassing and "illegal signage." Pacaso even claims it had to file a police report after a local wrote to the company and said, "I will burn down any home you buy in Napa. This is no joke."
Pacaso's CEO, who lives in Napa, saw firsthand how angry Napans were, and the company responded. In June, Pacaso agreed to sell the Napa home in a traditional manner "to a whole home buyer" rather than convert it into a corporation and sell it to multiple people. The company also pledged to beef up its "Owner Code Of Conduct" to include "decibel limits on all home sound systems," create a "local liaison" dedicated to assisting neighbors, not buy any homes in the area for under $2 million, and, for each house sold in Napa and Sonoma counties, donate $20,000 to a local nonprofit dedicated to affordable housing.
But while it has been trying to placate local communities with business reforms, Pacaso has waged a court battle with the town of St. Helena over whether its homes should be classified as timeshares. Pacaso is dead set against that classification. One reason might be that timeshares have a bad rap: While they're a popular way to go on vacations, their costs and associated fees tend to make them money losers rather than a profitable investment.
Potentially even more damaging to Pacaso's ambitions, however: Timeshares are banned in many vacation communities around the nation. Hence, Pacaso has strong reasons to insist its homes are not timeshares.
"Unlike a timeshare model, the co-owners that Pacaso serves collectively own real estate, not time," says Ellen Haberle, director of community and government relations for Pacaso.
St. Helena disagrees, declaring Pacaso homes are not allowed in the town because of a city ordinance against timesharing. "Simply calling them co-ownership arrangements does not change that fact," City Attorney Ethan Walsh said. In response to the ban, Pacaso sued the town in federal court. The lawsuit is still pending.
Pacaso says it plans to expand across North America and Europe. Given the company's billion-dollar valuation, investors seem to believe that many people will be attracted to its model of fractional second home ownership. But local residents will likely continue to fight the unicorn stampeding into their towns.

How to skip items under labels while scraping website Python

I am trying to extract comments from a sample web forum. While extracting comments I would want to eliminate those which are under label "Quote". How can I ignore that and extract others as both are under same class
url = "https://www.f150forum.com/f118/would-you-buy-f150-again-463954/index3/"
page = requests.get(url, headers=headers)
soup = BeautifulSoup(page.text, 'html.parser')
domains = soup.find_all("div")
posts = soup.find(id = "posts")
comments_class = soup.findAll('div',attrs={"class":"ism-true"})
comments = [row.get_text() for row in comments_class]
Thanks in advance.

From that url this will filter comments that don't have Quote tag:
QUOTE = '\n\n\nQuote:\n\n\r\n\t\t\t'
without_quotes = [comment for comment in comments if QUOTE not in comment]

The problem is with your selector, you need to update it in order to avoid div which have label with text Quote in it. It will more be easily done using xpaths

When that element comes up, get the 3rd next div element:
import requests
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
import re
url = "https://www.f150forum.com/f118/would-you-buy-f150-again-463954/index3/"
page = requests.get(url)
soup = BeautifulSoup(page.text, 'html.parser')
domains = soup.find_all("div")
posts = soup.find(id = "posts")
comments_class = soup.findAll('div',attrs={"class":"ism-true"})
comments_without_quote = []
for each in comments_class:
if 'Quote' in each.text:
nextComment = each.find('div', text=re.compile(r'Quote:')).findNext('div').findNext('div').findNext('div')
comments_without_quote.append(nextComment.text.strip())
comments_without_quote.append(each.text.strip())
Output:
print (comments_without_quote)

spaCy sentence segmentation failing on quotes

I am parsing some news data with spaCy and am noticing a consistent failure regarding sentence segmentation where there is a quote. Has anyone else solved this issue?
Here is a reproducible example - note sentence 4 in the output below. spaCy fails to split at the start of the quote, and this is consistent through other news articles I'm working with.
Thanks a lot.

I googled the original news article to try to figure out why your data looks like it does (missing whitespace between sentences where I wouldn't expect it in a formal news article), and it looks like the original problem is that no whitespace is inserted between HTML paragraphs. If you can fix that problem with how the article is extracted from the original HTML (insert whitespace when you run into <p> or </p>), you won't have this problem with spacy or other tools.
The models available in standard tools will often be trained on news data and it's reasonable to expect them to work well for data like this, but they expect whitespace between sentences. Unless you retrain the models with data including missing whitespace between sentences (or preprocess your data as suggested in a comment), you're going have these kinds of problems.

Reading data from CSV using pandas

I am trying to read data from a csv using pandas, like so :
import pandas as p
loadData = lambda f: np.genfromtxt(open(f,'r'), delimiter=',')
print "loading data.."
traindata = list(np.array(p.read_csv('FinalCSVFin.csv', delimiter=";"))[:,2])
I wish for this to give me a list of the 2nd column of the FinalCSVFin.csv. However, it is returning the error :
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Buildings stand at the International Business Machines Corp IBM Almaden Research Center campus in the Santa Teresa Hills of San Jose California Photographer Tony Avelar Bloomberg By 2015 your mobile phone will project a 3 D image of anyone who calls and your laptop will be powered by kinetic energy At least that s what International Business Machines Corp sees in its crystal ball The predictions are part of an annual tradition for the Armonk New York based company which surveys its 3 000 researchers to find five ideas expected to take root in the next five years IBM the world s largest provider of computer services looks to Silicon Valley for input gleaning many ideas from its Almaden research center in San Jose California Holographic conversations projected from mobile phones lead this year s list The predictions also include air breathing batteries computer programs that can tell when and where traffic jams will take place environmental information generated by sensors in cars and phones and cities powered by the heat thrown off by computer servers These are all stretch goals and that s good said Paul Saffo managing director of foresight at the investment advisory firm Discern in San Francisco In an era when pessimism is the new black a little dose of technological optimism is not a bad thing For IBM it s not just idle speculation The company is one of the few big corporations investing in long range research projects and it counts on innovation to fuel growth Saffo said Not all of its predictions pan out though IBM was overly optimistic about the spread of speech technology for instance When the ideas do lead to products they can have broad implications for society as well as IBM s bottom line he said Research Spending They have continued to do research when all the other grand research organizations are gone said Saffo who is also a consulting associate professor at Stanford University IBM invested 5 8 billion in research and development last year 6 1 percent of revenue While that s down from about 10 percent in the early 1990s the company spends a bigger share on research than its computing rivals Hewlett Packard Co the top maker of personal computers spent 2 4 percent last year At Almaden scientists work on projects that don t always fit in with IBM s computer business The lab s research includes efforts to develop an electric car battery that runs 500 miles on one charge a filtration system for desalination and a program that shows changes in geographic data IBM rose 9 cents to 146 04 at 11 02 a m in New York Stock Exchange composite trading The stock had gained 11 percent this year before today Citizen Science The list is meant to give a window into the company s innovation engine said Josephine Cheng a vice president at IBM s Almaden lab All this demonstrates a real culture of innovation at IBM and willingness to devote itself to solving some of the world s biggest problems she said Many of the predictions are based on projects that IBM has in the works One of this year s ideas that sensors in cars wallets and personal devices will give scientists better data about the environment is an expansion of the company s citizen science initiative Earlier this year IBM teamed up with the California State Water Resources Control Board and the City of San Jose Environmental Services to help gather information about waterways Researchers from Almaden created an application that lets smartphone users snap photos of streams and creeks and report back on conditions The hope is that these casual observations will help local and state officials who don t have the resources to do the work themselves Traffic Predictors IBM also sees data helping shorten commutes in the next five years Computer programs will use algorithms and real time traffic information to predict which roads will have backups and how to avoid getting stuck Batteries may last 10 times longer in 2015 than today IBM says Rather than using the current lithium ion technology new models could rely on energy dense metals that only need to interact with the air to recharge Some electronic devices might ditch batteries altogether and use something similar to kinetic wristwatches which only need to be shaken to generate a charge The final prediction involves recycling the heat generated by computers and data centers Almost half of the power used by data centers is currently spent keeping the computers cool IBM scientists say it would be better to harness that heat to warm houses and offices In IBM s first list of predictions compiled at the end of 2006 researchers said instantaneous speech translation would become the norm That hasn t happened yet While some programs can quickly translate electronic documents and instant messages and other apps can perform limited speech translation there s nothing widely available that acts like the universal translator in Star Trek Second Life The company also predicted that online immersive environments such as Second Life would become more widespread While immersive video games are as popular as ever Second Life s growth has slowed Internet users are flocking instead to the more 2 D environments of Facebook Inc and Twitter Inc Meanwhile a 2007 prediction that mobile phones will act as a wallet ticket broker concierge bank and shopping assistant is coming true thanks to the explosion of smartphone applications Consumers can pay bills through their banking apps buy movie tickets and get instant feedback on potential purchases all with a few taps on their phones The nice thing about the list is that it provokes thought Saffo said If everything came true they wouldn t be doing their job To contact the reporter on this story Ryan Flinn in San Francisco at rflinn

What have I done incorrectly here ?

1) A better way
import pandas as pd
seperator = ";"
df = pd.read_csv("FinalCSVFin.csv", sep=seperator)
2) Your code
You define a function to Read a file using genfromtxt method in numpy, and then use pandas to read you file. I suggest the latter, just use read_csv method in pandas (as was described in 1).
3) Suggestions
Here are the points you can change to get your code working.
You implement a function to read data using np.genfromtxt. The problems are inconsistency in delimiter and also the lack of dtype in genfromtxt. I edit your function as follows:
loadData = lambda f, s: np.genfromtxt(open(f,'r'), dtype=None, delimiter=s)
This gives you a list of tuples. If your file (i.e. FinalCSVFin.csv) uses ";" as delimiter, call this function as follows:
valus = loadData("test.txt", ";")
