Projects are to be done on a word processor and be neat and professional. Good writing, grammar, punctuation, etc. are important and points will be taken off if these things are lacking. Each written project report should be about 4-5 pages and are limited to no more than five single-sided, single-spaced pages using 12 point font, including all graphs and figures. (For the backpropagation report you may use 6 pages if absolutely necessary). Communicating clearly and concisely what you have to say is an important skill you will use throughout your career. Figures are not to be hand-drawn and should be large enough to be easily legible. Keep numbers reported to consistent (3 or 4) significant digits. All assignments should be e-mailed as PDF files to the TA e-mail shown on the homepage. Put the assignment name in the subject line. If you have a question for the TAs send it to the same address, but put question in the subject line so they can respond more readily. Except where specifically stated otherwise, all reports are due by midnight of the published due date. By midnight we mean the very end of the published due date.
Programming projects will be graded primarily on positive completion and technical accuracy in the discussion. Most parts of the projects require an clear measurable result (e.g. working program, graphs of results, etc.) and some questions where you analyze your results. Most of the questions will have objective answers which you are expected to get right. A few questions are more open-ended and subjective, and in these cases you will be graded based on perceived effort and thought.
· Instructions and source code for the toolkit can be found here.
· A collection of data sets already in the ARFF format can be found here.
· Details on ARFF are found here.
· The complete and continually updating UC Irvine Data Set is here. This is a good place to go to study more about the problems used in your assignments and also to find new problems.
· In order to help you debug projects we have included some small examples and other hints with actual learned hypotheses so that you can compare the results of your code and help ensure that your code is working properly.
Answer problems 1.1, 1.2, and 1.4 from the text. This assignment is due before class on the published due date.
1. (25%) Correctly implement the perceptron learning algorithm and integrate it with the tool kit. Before implementing your perceptron you should review the remaining requirements for this project so that you implement in a way which will support them. In particular, note that you will be supporting tasks with non-binary outputs, which require multiple output nodes. Include your source code as a separate attachment in this and all labs.
2. (5%) Create 2 ARFF files, both with 8 instances using 2 real valued inputs (which range between -1 and 1) each with 4 instances from each class. One should be linearly separable and the other not.
3. (10%) Train on both sets (the entire sets) with the Perceptron Rule. Try it with a couple different learning rates and discuss the effect of learning rate, including how many epochs are completed before stopping. (For these situations learning rate should have minimal effect, unlike with the Backpropagation lab). Discuss the differences in outcome with the linearly separable vs. the non-linearly separable set.
The basic stopping criteria for these models is to stop training when no longer making significant progress. For example, when you have gone a number of epochs with no significant improvement in accuracy. Describe your specific stopping criteria. Don't just stop the first epoch when no improvement occurs. Use a learning rate of .1 for experiments 4-6 below.
4. (10%) Graph the instances and decision line for the two cases above (with LR=.1) and discuss the graphs.
5. (15%) Use the perceptron rule to learn this version of the voting task. This particular task is an edited version of the standard voting set, where we have replaced all the don't know values with the most common value for the particular attribute. Randomly split the data into 70% training and 30% test set. Try it five times with different random splits. For each split report the final training and test set accuracy and the # of epochs required. Also report the average of these values from the 5 trials. You should update after every instance. Remember to shuffle the data order after each epoch. By looking at the weights, explain what the model has learned and how the individual input features effect the result. Which specific features are most critical for the voting task, and which are least critical? Do one graph of the average misclassification rate vs epochs (1st –final epoch) for the training set. Discuss your results.
6. (20%) Use the perceptron rule to learn the iris task. Randomly split the data into 70% training and 30% test set. Try it five times with different random splits. For each split report the final training and test set accuracy and the # of epochs required. Also report the average of these values from the 5 trials. By looking at the weights, explain what the model has learned and how the individual input features effect the result. Discuss your results. As a rough sanity check, typical Perceptron accuracies for these data sets are: Vote: 90%-98%, Iris: 60-95%. Note that the iris data set has 3 output classes, and the perceptron node only has two possible outputs. Two common ways to deal with this are:
a) Create 1 perceptron for each output class. Each perceptron has its own training set which considers its class positive and all other classes to be negative examples. Run all three perceptrons on novel data and set the class to the label of the perceptron which outputs high. If there is a tie, choose the perceptron with the highest net value.
b) Create 1 perceptron for each pair of output classes, where the training set only contains examples from the 2 classes. Run all perceptrons on novel data and set the class to the label with the most wins (votes) from the perceptrons. In case of a tie, use the net values to decide.
Implement one of these and discuss your results. For either of these approaches you can train up the models independently or simultaneously. For testing you just execute the novel instance on each model and combine the overall results to see which output class wins.
7. (15%) Do your own experiment with either the perceptron or delta rule. Show and discuss your results, including what you learned. Have fun and be creative! For this lab and all the future labs make sure you do something more than just try out the model on different data sets.
Note: In order to help you debug this and other projects we have included some small examples and other hints with actual learned hypotheses so that you can compare the results of your code and help ensure that your code is working properly.
1. (30%) Implement the backpropagation algorithm and integrate it with the toolkit. Attach your source code. Your implementation should include:
◦ ability to create an arbitrary network structure (# of nodes, layers, etc.)
◦ random weight initialization (small random weights with 0 mean)
◦ on-line/stochastic weight update
◦ a reasonable stopping criterion
◦ training set randomization at each epoch
◦ an option to include a momentum term
2. (10%) Use your backpropagation learner, with stochastic weight updates, for the iris classification problem. Use one layer of hidden nodes with the number of hidden nodes being twice the number of inputs. Always use bias weights to each hidden and output node. Use a random 75/25 split of the data for the training/test set and a learning rate of .1. Use a validation set (VS) for your stopping criteria for this and the remaining experiments. Note that with a VS you do not stop the first epoch that the VS does not get an improved accuracy. Rather, you keep track of the best solution so far (bssf) on the VS and consider a window of epochs (e.g. 10) and when there has been no improvement over bssf for the length of the window, then you stop. Create one graph with the MSE (mean squared error) on the training set (TS), the MSE on the VS, and the classification accuracy (% classified correctly) of the VS on the y-axis, and number of epochs on the x-axis. (Note two scales on the y-axis). The results for the different measurables should be shown with a different color, line type, etc. As a rough sanity check, typical Backpropagation accuracies for these data sets are: Iris: 80% to mid 90%, Vowel: around 60%.
3. (20%) For 3-5 you will just use the vowel data set, which is a more difficult task (what would the baseline accuracy be?). Use your backpropagation learner, with stochastic weight updates, for the vowel classification problem. Consider carefully which of the given input features you should actually use. Initially use one layer of hidden nodes with the number of hidden nodes being twice the number of inputs. Use a random 75/25 split of the data for the training/test set. Try some different learning rates (LR). For each LR find the best VS solution (in terms of VS MSE). Average the results of a few different random splits and initial weight settings for each learning rate. Create one graph with MSE for the TS, VS, and test set, and also the classification accuracy on the VS and test set, on the y-axis, and the different learning rates on the x-axis. Discuss your results and how learning rate effected backpropagation learning?
4. (10%) Using the best LR you discovered, experiment with different numbers of hidden nodes. Start with 2 hidden nodes and double them for each test until you get no more improvement. For each number of hidden nodes find the best VS solution (in terms of VS MSE). Average the results of a few different random splits and initial weight settings for each case. Create one graph with MSE for the TS, VS, and test set, the classification accuracy on the VS and test set, and the number of epochs needed to get to the best VS solution, on the y-axis (3 scales), and the different # of hidden nodes on the x-axis. Note that you can support multiple y-axis scales by simply mentioning in your explanation, about which scales goes with which lines (the lines styles should be differentiated so as to clearly distinguish on from another.) In general, whenever you are testing a parameter such as # of hidden nodes, test values until no more improvement is found. For example, if 20 hidden nodes did better than 10, you wouldn't stop at 20, but would try 40, etc., until you saw that you no longer got improvement. Discuss the effect of different numbers of hidden units on the algorithm's performance.
5. (10%) Try some different momentum terms in the learning equation using the best number of hidden nodes and LR from your earlier experiments. Graph as in step 4 but with momentum on the x-axis. How did the momentum term affect your results?
6. (5%) Using the best parameters found in 3-5, what difference in accuracy and learning do you get (for both training and test set) with vowel if you include name and gender as features vs excluding them. Discuss some possible reasons for this.
7. (15%) Do an experiment of your own regarding backpropagation learning and report your results and conclusions. Do something more interesting than just trying BP on a different task, or just a variation of the other requirements above. Analyze and discuss your results. Try to explain why things happened the way they did.
Turn in a thoughtful, well-written written report (see the guidelines above) that details your experiments and addresses the questions posed above (look carefully at everything to make sure you've covered all the parts of each).
1. (35%) Correctly implement the ID3 decision tree algorithm, including the ability to handle unknown attributes (You do not need to handle real valued attributes). Attach your source code. Use standard information gain as your basic attribute evaluation metric. (Note that normal ID3 would always augment information gain with gain ratio or some other mechanism to penalize statistically insignificant attribute splits. Otherwise, even with approaches like pruning below, the SS# type of overfit could still hurt us.) It is a good idea to use a simple data set (like the lenses data), that you can check by hand, to test your algorithm to make sure that it is working correctly. You should be able to get about 68% (61%-82%) predictive accuracy on lenses.
2. (15%) You will use your ID3 algorithm to induce decision trees for the cars data set and the voting data set. Do not use a stopping criteria, but induce the tree as far as it can go (until classes are pure or there are no more data or attributes to split on). Note that you will need to support unknown attributes in the voting data set. Use 10-fold CV on each data set to predict how well the models will do on novel data. Report the training and test classification accuracy for each fold and then average the test accuracies to get your prediction. Create a table summarizing these accuracy results, and discuss what you observed. As a rough sanity check, typical decision tree accuracies for these data sets are: Cars: .90-.95, Vote: .92-.95.
3. (10%) For each of the two problems, summarize in English what the decision tree has learned (look at the induced tree and describe what rules it has discovered to try to solve each task). If the tree is large you can just discuss a few of the more shallow rules and the most important decisions made high in the tree.
4. (10%) How did you handle unknown attributes in the voting problem? Why did you choose this approach? (Do not use the approach of just throwing out data with unknown attributes).
5. (15%) Implement reduced error pruning to help avoid overfitting. You will need to take a validation set out of your training data to do this, while still having a test set to test your final accuracy. Create a table comparing the original trees created with no overfit avoidance in item 2 above and the trees you create with pruning. This table should compare a) the # of nodes (including leaf nodes) and tree depth of the final decision trees and b) the generalization (test set) accuracy. (For the 10-fold CV models, just use their average values in the table). Summarize your findings.
6. (15%) Do an experiment of your own regarding decision trees and report your results and conclusions. You can be as creative as you would like on this. Experiments could include modifying the algorithm, modifying the measure of best attribute, comparing information gain and gain ratio, comparing different stopping criteria and/or pruning approaches, etc. Analyze and discuss your results. Try to explain why things happened the way they did.
Turn in a thoughtful, well-written written report (see the guidelines above) that addresses each question posed above (look carefully at everything to make sure you've covered all the parts of each).
1. (40%) Implement the k nearest neighbor algorithm and the k nearest neighbor regression algorithm, including optional distance weighting for both algorithms. Attach your source code.
2. (10%) Use the k nearest neighbor algorithm for the magic telescope problem using this training set and this test set. Try it with k=3 with normalization (input features normalized between 0 and 1) and without normalization and discuss the accuracy results on the test set. For the rest of the experiments use only normalized data. With just the normalized training set as your data, graph classification accuracy on the test set with odd values of k from 1 to 15. Which value of k is the best in terms of classification accuracy? As a rough sanity check, typical k-nn accuracies for the magic telescope data set are 75-85%.
3. (10%) Use the regression variation of your algorithm for the housing price prediction problem using this training set and this test set. Report Mean Square Error on the test set as your accuracy metric for this case. Experiment using odd values of k from 1 to 15. Which value of k is the best?
4. (10%) Repeat your experiments for magic telescope and housing using distance-weighted (inverse of distance squared) voting. Discuss how distance weighting affects the algorithm performance.
5. (10%) For the best value of k for each dataset, implement a reduction algorithm that removes data points in some rational way such that performance does not drop too drastically on the test set given the reduced training set. Compare your performance on the test set for the reduced and non-reduced versions and give the number (and percentage) of training examples removed from the original training set. (Note that performance for magic telescope is classification accuracy and for housing it is sum squared error). How well does your reduction algorithm work? Magic Telescope has about 12,000 instances and if you use a leave one out style of testing for your data set reduction, then your algorithm will run slow since that is n2 at each step. If you wish, you may use a random subset of 2,000 of the magic telescope instances. More information on reduction techniques can be found here.
6. (10%) Use the k nearest neighbor algorithm to solve the credit-approval (credit-a) data set. Note that this set has both continuous and nominal attributes, together with don't know values. Implement and justify a distance metric which supports continuous, nominal, and don't know attribute values. Use your own choice for k, training/test split, etc. and discuss your results. More information on distance metrics can be found here. As a rough sanity check, typical k-nn accuracies for the credit data set are 70-80%.
7. (10%) Do an experiment of your own regarding the k nearest neighbor paradigm and report your results and conclusions. Analyze and discuss your results. Try to explain why things happened the way they did.
Turn in a thoughtful, well-written written report (see the guidelines above) that details your experiments and addresses the questions posed above (look carefully at everything to make sure you've covered all the parts of each).
1. (40%) Implement the k-means clustering algorithm and the HAC (Hierarchical Agglomerative Clustering) algorithm. Attach your source code. Use Euclidean distance for continuous attributes and (0,1) distances for nominal and unknown attributes (e.g. matching nominals have distance 0 else 1, unknown attributes have distance 1). HAC should support both single link and complete link options. For k-means you will pass in a specific k value for the number of clusters that should be in the resulting clustering. Since HAC automatically generates groupings for all values of k, you will pass in a range or set of k values for which actual output will be generated. The output for both algorithms should include for each clustering: a) the number of clusters, b) the centroid values of each cluster, c) the number of instances tied to that centroid, d) the SSE of each cluster, and e) the total SSE of the full clustering. The sum squared error (SSE) of a single cluster is the sum of the squared distances to the cluster centroid. Run k-means, HAC-single link, and HAC-complete link on this exact set of the sponge data set (use all columns and do not shuffle or normalize) and report your exact results for each algorithm with k=4 clusters. For k-means use the first 4 elements of the data set as initial centroids. This will allow us to check the accuracy of your implementation.
To help debug your implementations, you may run them on this data set (don't shuffle or normalize it). Note that this is just the labor data set with an instance id column added for showing results. (Do NOT use the id column or the output class column as feature data). The results for 5-means, using the first 5 elements of the data set as initial centroids should be this. In HAC we just do the one closest merge per iteration. The results for HAC-single link up to 5 clusters should be this and complete link up to 5 clusters should be this.
For the sample files, we ignore missing values when calculating centroids and assign them a distance of 1 when determining total sum squared error. Suppose you had the following instances in a cluster:
?, 1.0, Round
?, 2.0, Square
?, 3.0, Round
Red, ?, ?
Red, ?, Square
The centroid value for the first attribute would be "Red" and SSE would be 3. The centroid value for the second attribute would be 2, and SSE would be 4. In case of a tie as with the third attribute, we choose the nominal value which appeared first in the meta data list. So if the attribute were declared as @attribute Shape{"Round", "Square"}, then the centroid value for the third attribute would be Round and the SSE would be 3. For other types of ties (node or cluster with the same distance to another cluster, which should be rare), just go with the earliest cluster in your list. If all the attributes in a cluster have don't know for one of the attributes, then use don't know in the centroid for that attribute.
2. (20%) Run all three variations (k-means, HAC-single link, and HAC-complete link) on the full iris data set where you do not include the output label as part of the data set. For k-means you should always choose k random points in the data set as initial centroids. If you ever end up with any empty clusters in k-means, re-run with different initial centroids. Run it for k = 2-7. State whether you normalize or not (your choice). Graph the total SSE for each k and discuss your results (i.e. what kind of clusters are being made). Now do it again where you include the output class as one of the input features and discuss your results and any differences. For this final data set, run k-means 10 times with k=4, each time with different initial random centroids and discuss any variations in the results.
3. (15%) Run all three variations (k-means, HAC-single link, and HAC-complete link) on the following smaller (500 instance) abalone data set where you include all attributes including the normal output attribute "rings". Treat "rings" as a continuous variable, rather than nominal. Why would I suggest that? Run it for k = 2-7. Graph and discuss your results without normalization. Then run it again with normalization and discuss any differences.
4. (10%) For your normalized abalone experiments, calculate and graph a performance metric for the clusterings for k = 2-7. You may use the Davies-Bouldin Index or some other metric including one of your own making. If not using Davies-Bouldin, justify your metric. Discuss how effective the metric you used might be in these cases for selecting which number of clusters is best.
5. (15%) Do an experiment of your own regarding clustering and report your results and conclusions. Analyze and discuss your results. Try to explain why things happened the way they did.
Come up with one carefully proposed idea for a possible group machine learning project, that could be done this semester. This proposal should not be more than one page long. It should include a thoughtful first draft proposal of a) description of the project, b) what features the data set would include and c) how and from where would the data set be gathered and labeled. Give at least one fully specified example of a data set instance based on your proposed features, including a reasonable representation (continuous, nominal, etc.) and value for each feature. The actual values may be fictional at this time. This effort will cause you to consider how plausible the future data gathering and representation might actually be. Note: Don't choose a task where the data set is already worked through and collected, and pretty much ready to use for training. I want you to learn by having to work through, at least to some degree, these important issues.
Also specify whether this is a project you would really like to be part of or if you just did it because it was assigned. I will use this in helping decide which subset of the proposals I will send to the class. Please e-mail me this proposal by the due date. I will then consider which ones are most reasonable (about 12-15) and e-mail them out to the class. I will then have each of you e-mail me a ranked list of the top 4 projects you would like to be part of. I will then do my best to place you in a team of 3 on a project you are interested in. Note that you may not all get your first choice, but I will guarantee that if you are the one who proposes the project, and that project is chosen and you want to be on it, that you will get to be on that project.
You may work together on the proposal (up to 2 people) and send in one proposal if it is one that you both specify as wanting to work on.
The grade on this will not be based on whether your proposal is chosen or not. It will be based on whether it appears that you put in a reasonable effort to propose a plausible project and if the proposal is appropriate based on what we have learned in class.
Your goal in the group project is to get the highest possible generalization accuracy on a real world application. A large part of the project will be gathering, deriving, and representing input features. After you have come up with basic data and features, you will choose a machine learning model(s), and format the data to fit the model(s). Expect that initial results may not be as good as you would like. You will then begin the iterative process of a) trying adjusted/improved data/features, and b) adjusted/different machine learning models in order to get the best possible results. You may use your own implementations of models or a resource such as WEKA (http://www.cs.waikato.ac.nz/ml/weka/) for doing simulations on multiple models. Your written report and oral presentation (formats below) should contain at least the following.
a) Motivation and discussion of your chosen task
b) The features used to solve the problem and details on how you gathered and represented the features, including critical decisions/choices made along the way
c) Your initial results with your initial model
d) The iterative steps you took to get better results (improved features and/or learning models)
e) Clear reporting and explanation of your final results including your training/testing approach
f) Conclusions, insights, and future directions you would take if time permitted
1. Prepare and submit a polished paper describing your work. Submit one hard copy at the beginning of class on the day of the oral presentation. You should use these Latex style files if you are writing in Latex (which is a great way to write nice looking papers) or this Word template. Read one of these links (especially the early paragraphs) because they contain more information on the contents of your paper (#pages, order, etc.). I will not be getting out a ruler to make sure you match format exactly, but it is a good experience to put together a professional looking paper. Your paper should look like a conference paper, including Title, Author Affiliations, Abstract, Introduction, Methods, Results and Conclusion (Bibliographical references are optional for this, but do include them if you have any). Here are some examples of a well written write-ups from a previous semesters.
2. Prepare a polished oral presentation, including slides, that communicates your work. Your presentation should take 12 minutes and allow 3 minutes for questions (a rough guide for slide preparations is about 1 slide per 1-2 minutes). Practice in advance to insure a quality appropriately timed presentation.
3. Email me a thoughtful and honest evaluation of the contributions of your group members (including yourself). For each, include a score from 0 to 10 indicating your evaluation of their work (10 meaning they were a valuable member of the team that made significant contributions to the project and were good to work with, 0 meaning they contributed nothing). If you would like, you may also include any clarifying comments, etc.

Of this bedding? Our LO's crib is an oak color?? Do you think it will look ok? I am not wanting a theme this time just colors and these are the exact colors I want but wanted your thoughts!!
Any any ideas on where I can find the letters for the wall to put our LO's name that would match this set? I plan on getting the little monkey wall art too.
LOVE the bedding. i just ordered wall letters off of etsy from this shop:
i'm super excited!! she was great to deal with - very fast communication, totally reasonable prices, and she lets you pick whatever font (she has 600!!) and colors (she just sends you the paint catalog) you want. the letters are $7.50 a piece - and the cheapest letters i did find ($5) did not come painted or with hangers/ribbons to go right on the wall. i figured for the extra $2.50 a letter, it was more than worth it to me to have someone else do the painting and mounting! hth!
PinkyPie105:Awesome Thanks so much I will def order from her!!! I cant decide on the paint or font for a boy? She sends me all that she offers correct?
Yup! Tell her you're not sure about the colors and ask her to send you the catalog - it's literally the "Folk Art Paint" catalog, and she'll order any color you choose. I chose a purple and a green, alternating by the letter. Also, she has a few font examples on her site, but the notes below also say that she has over 600 fonts, so you just have to ask. For me, it was totally worth having someone else do the painting and mounting, so I can just get them and hang them on the wall. I'm getting so tired, and while I wanted to make these myself, I can't handle another project!! Plus, she has cuter fonts than I could find in any store.

Riddick Tops Weak Weekend Box Office
Not a lot of new films means not a lot of money.
Skip to content, or skip to search.
Skip to content, or skip to search.
Not a lot of new films means not a lot of money.
This weekend's box office numbers were generally bad.
Hansel & Gretel didn't do too well, either.
Cloud Atlas was sort of a flop.
Meanwhile, last week's Taken 2 is still at the top of the box office.
Has Tim Burton lost his touch?
Meanwhile, Clint Eastwood's baseball movie did alright.
Prohibition-era Lawless came in second.
2016 Obama's America.
ParaNorman comes in third.
But it's not doing as well as Ice Ages 1, 2, or 3.
Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Slayer, meanwhile, proved the concept was bad to begin with.
Despite considerable star power.
Just $70 million for four-day holiday weekend.
Who did the sinking?: The Avengers.
Wrath of Titans, Mirror Mirror both fall flat.
Consolation prize: It was Russia's biggest-ever opener.
New movies, same disappointing results.
Guess all those fancy name actors don't guarantee a hit.

January 13, 2009
Later this week the House is set to vote on legislation reauthorizing the State Children's Health Insurance Program (SCHIP). The bill (HR 2) is nearly identical to separate bills that were vetoed by President Bush in 2007 and 2008. The plan is for the House to pass the bill this week and for the Senate to follow as early as next week. The bill will be delivered to President-Elect Obama after he is inaugurated on January 20.
Click here to contact Congress, and tell them to vote in favor of renewal of the SCHIP program. The bill would renew the program for 4.5 years and add an additional 4 million low-income children to the program.
Remind your members of Congress that the bill is nearly identical to previous version of SCHIP legislation from the 110th Congress. The bill would also allow states to add legal immigrant children to their SCHIP programs. Finally, the bill contains a provision ensuring that all private sector SCHIP plans comply with the Paul Wellstone & Pete Domenici Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act of 2008 – the new federal parity law.
You can also reach Congress by calling 1-800-828-0498.

What's in the box: Computer, Compass, Quick Disconnect, HP Hose, USB Cable & Digital Online Class
Suunto Cobra combines several technological innovations into one product. It is the only air-integrated dive computer with air, Nitrox, and gauge modes complete with profile memory on the market. In addition to the extensive information provided by the Vyper, the Cobra displays cylinder pressure and estimated remaining air time. The air-consumption of a dive is stored as a used-pressure value in the logbook memory for future reference.
Cobra offers the new Suunto Reduced Gradient Bubble Model (RGBM), which is a unique algorithm for predicting both dissolved and free gas in the blood and tissues of divers. This development combines the latest knowledge in diving technology with the classic Haldane model. The advantage of the RGBM is its ability to adapt to a wide variety of diving situations. For added safety, the Cobra features the original Suunto innovation: separate three-step personal and altitude adjustments.
The SK-7 has set a new standard for dive compasses. The superior SK-7 features an exceptional tilt potential of +/- 30 degrees, which is 2-3 times larger than in conventional diving compasses, easy-to-read numerals on a phosphorescent compass card and a large side-reading window. The firm-grip bezel with a ratchetat every fifth degree is especially designed to prevent sand and dirt contamination, thus allowing smooth turning in all conditions.
With Suunto's Quick Disconnect you can connect the Cobra Computer Console to theregulator pressure port with only one quick and easy move. Disconnecting is justas simple. The Quick Release is installed between the Computer and the hose or between the hose and regulator first stage. This allows you to store the dive instruments in a safe place, independently from the cylinder and download the dive information easily in-between several dives. It is fast and reliable.
The Suunto Cobra Air Integrated Computer with Compass QD & USB is commonly used for Recreation, Warm Water, Cold Water, Extreme Depths, Professional and more. The Suunto Cobra Air Integrated Computer with Compass QD & USB is most used by customers who consider themselves to be a Advanced Diver, Recreational Diver, Divemaster, Advanced among others. The Suunto Cobra Air Integrated Computer with Compass QD & USB is popular because customers like the following qualities of the Suunto Cobra Air Integrated Computer with Compass QD & USB: Lots Of Functions, Easy To Read, Easy To Operate, Reliable.

Longtime gay rights advocate Thomas Duane is retiring from the State Senate.
The 57-year-old is the only openly gay and HIV-positive member of the State Senate.
He has represented the 29th District, which covers parts of Chelsea, Greenwich Village, and the East Side, since 1998.
"I worked hard to represent people that lived in my district in Manhattan and I've done it for 14 years. But you know, 14 years is a long time and I just decided that it's time for a new chapter in my life," said Duane.
Before heading to Albany, Duane spent seven years in the City Council.
Duane was instrumental in passing New York's Marriage Equality Act.
He said he will continue to advocate for gay rights after his retirement.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -- The city of Nashville has passed an anti-discrimination ordinance that would protect gays and lesbians who work for companies that contract with the city.
The Tennessean reports that the vote passed by the thinnest of margins Tuesday, as opponents were arguing that city contractors shouldn't be forced to compromise their moral and religious values.
A number of prominent religious leaders, including Richard Land of the Southern Baptist Convention, voiced opposition to the measure early on, asking the council, in a letter, to vote against it.
The law requires that firms doing business with the city not discriminate against employees because of sexual orientation or gender identity. Religious institutions are exempt from it.
The measure is an extension of Nashville's law that protects city workers from discrimination.

Hey tiger007, how much for something like this? made by you?
Last edited by NotJustAnyRob; 10-09-2012 at 09:57 PM Reason: No reasons
there isn't enough room inside the ps3 without replacing the stock fan and possibly the cooler but some people have done that and mounted a pc cooler and fan to each chip - looks weird but it works.Sponsored Links
Sorry mate but I dont have much time at the moment. If you planning to make one, it's fun, I can tell you Like Anger007 said, there isn't enough room inside the ps3 if you planning to do internal.
Here is a short video of the cooler with my PS3 FAT (dex 4.21 test console). I had reflowed this one after a YLOD and still running strong after hours of testing /playing.
I really like that coolingpad, looks really great by the way but maybe i end up doing a water cooling kit instead. Thanks for the video.
very nice idea mr i am from holland. i am going to make one. but i am going to have to add my own personal san diego touch. thanks for the idea dog.

Junior Becca Johnson leads the Tigers bars lineup into Saturday's SEC Championships
March 21, 2014
BIRMINGHAM, Al. - After posting their season high score in last year's conference tournament, the Missouri gymnastics team looks to do the same this Saturday in the 2014 SEC Championships in Birmingham, Al.
All eight SEC teams will compete this Saturday, Mar. 22 inside the BJCC Arena. Missouri will be a part of the first session which begins at 2:00 p.m. CT, while the second and final session begins at approximately 6:00 p.m. CT.
The 2014 SEC Gymnastics Championships will feature six of the nation's top-15 teams, including four teams among the top-six nationally. Session number two will slate No. 1 Florida, No. 2 LSU, No. 4 Alabama, and No. 6 Georgia. Missouri will join No. 12 Auburn, No. 15 Arkansas and Kentucky in the afternoon's first session.
Fans can follow the action on www.SECDigitalNetwork.com. Saturday's SEC Championships will be aired Mar. 27 at 4:30 p.m. CT on ESPNU and again on Mar. 29 at 10:00 a.m. CT on ESPN2.
Missouri Tigers Gymnastics Quick Facts
The Tigers finished the regular season with a 6-7 (.462) record under first-year head coach Shannon Welker. It marked a drastic improvement over the 2013 Tigers, as that year's squad only tallied a 4-17 (.182) overall record.
While Missouri improved their mark this season and took advantage of some non-conference wins, the Tigers are still in search of their first all-time SEC victory. With an 0-13 (.000) record the past two years, Missouri looks to turn things around next year during the 2015 season.
Missouri's lone regular and postseason victory in SEC gymnastics came at last year's SEC Championships, as they finished seventh out of eighth in the final team results, defeating the Kentucky Wildcats.
Missouri At The 2013 SEC Championships
(Mar. 23, 2013) Showing steady improvement all season long, the 2013 Missouri Gymnastics team recorded their season high score of 195.525 at last year's conference tournament. The Tigers also earned a season high 49.250 score on the balance beam at the event.
Missouri's team total ranked them seventh out of eighth overall, as the Florida Gators took home first place with their 198.000 team score.
The Tigers began the day's first session on floor and finished with a solid 48.975 team total on the event. An array of Missouri gymnasts put up strong scores, led by senior Tori Howard's 9.850 score and Cathryn Aliceaacosta and Sandra Ostad's marks of 9.800 apiece.
Missouri closed out the competition on beam, as Laura Kappler matched her then personal best score of 9.800. Howard and Mackenzie McGill each posted team best scores of 9.900 in the middle, and were followed by a big 9.875 score from Rachel Updike.
Additional Missouri Gymnastics Tidbits
The Tigers' top event all year has been on bars, as their 48.960 event score ranks T-26th in the nation. Junior Rebecca Johnson's RQS bars score of 9.850 leads the way for Missouri, which ranks T-65th in the country.
Updike has turned in the most successful individual RQS score of 2014 so far, as the junior's 9.900 score on vault is tied for the 21st best mark in the country.

It's bigger than the dancing nudes near Music Row, more expensive than the curving red sculpture next to LP Field, but no one yet knows when it will be built and installed.
The $750,000 piece of art is slated for the large new roundabout behind the Music City Center, where 8th Avenue crosses Korean Veteran's Boulevard. Los Angeles artist Christian Moeller's winning design calls for filling the large, circular space with 35 cedar rods, each twice as tall as a telephone pole.
With downtown growing in the direction of that intersection, Arts Commission director Jen Cole says the art needs to be on a scale to balance any future construction-and it has to be interesting from all angles, including overhead.
"That area is zoned for 30 story buildings. Somebody's going to look out of their office, and we want them to see something exciting."
But the land underneath the roundabout still belongs to the state, not Metro. There are legal issues to work out before installation can be scheduled. Cole isn't willing to even guess at a timeline.

Beckham, De Aza in for White Sox; Humber, Johnson appear out
BY DARYL VAN SCHOUWEN email@example.com November 29, 2012 7:25PM
Chicago White Sox Vs Cleveland Indians. 3rd-inning White Sox No.15 Gordon Beckham with solo Homerun. I Scott Stewart~Sun-Times
Article Extras
Updated: January 1, 2013 6:36AM
The White Sox will tender contracts to second baseman Gordon Beckham and outfielder Alejandro De Aza before Friday's 11 p.m. deadline. There's a good chance they won't for Philip Humber and Dan Johnson, who had two of the team's greatest individual game performances of 2012.
Humber pitched a perfect game against the Mariners in Seattle on April 21, and Johnson hit three homers against the Indians in the season finale in Cleveland. Humber (5-5, 6.14 ERA) faded after throwing the perfecto, however, and Johnson's flair for the dramatic simmered for most of the season at Class AAA Charlotte.
With depth in the starting rotation and at first base, the Sox will be content to let Humber, 31, and Johnson, 33, become free agents rather than pay the $1 million or more they'd command through the arbitration process. Taking them off the full-to-capacity 40-man roster also would afford general manager Rick Hahn wiggle room for trades or free agents before the winter meetings, which begin Monday in Nashville, Tenn.
"I prefer not to announce any tender decisions until we've had those conversations with individual players,'' Hahn said Thursday. "We've talked to agents this week about what we're thinking and where these things are likely headed, so it's not going to come as a shock should we decide not to tender anybody.''
With 10 players under contract for $90 million next year, and Beckham, De Aza and left fielder Dayan Viciedo — who are under Sox control — probably set to earn another $8 million combined, the Sox are close to the $100 million ballpark expectation for their payroll.
Hahn said that moving Beckham to third base, where he played as a rookie, has been discussed, but it isn't likely.
"We'd be foolish not to explore it, but we'd be reluctant to shift him yet again,'' Hahn said.
Third base is Hahn's top offseason priority heading to Nashville, but he said there's no urgency to re-sign free agent Kevin Youkilis or trade for a third baseman — which would likely be made from the Sox' supply of pitching depth.
"You don't get added points getting deals done in winter meetings,'' Hahn said. "Our goal is to improve the roster by Opening Day, so it doesn't matter if that happens in November or January.''
Hahn talked with Youkilis' agent, Joe Bick, on Wednesday.
"It's still coming together,'' Hahn said. "There's no certainty to exactly what the economic package for Kevin ultimately will be.''
Hahn admitted the Sox will lack left-handed hitting if catcher A.J. Pierzynski signs elsewhere, leaving only Adam Dunn and De Aza. Hahn was neither optimistic nor pessimistic about Pierzynski returning.
"That's a market that once there is movement at the top end, A.J. will get clarity on what his market is like,'' Hahn said. "We've had ongoing conversations with his agent and have a sense where this is headed, but there is no finality in terms of economically how it's going to wind up.''

Hi Dr Lam,
I am male and previously had a liposuction to my trunk area. Fat was removed from around my abdomen and "lovehandles".
I now wish to have fat grafting to enhance my cheekbones.
However, I have heard that as a general rule liposuctioned areas cannot be used as a donor site. Not because of lack of fat (there is still some fat there), but rather because there is a lot of scar tissue in the fat. Is this correct? If so does that mean that fat grafting is pretty much out of the question for me?

Review: Devourment – Conceived in Sewage
On their fourth full-length and Relapse Records debut, Dallas regurgitators Devourment do entirely what you expect them to, pumping out nine tracks of "slam," the chuggy, breakdown-choked death-metal subgenre they've helped spearhead. While spirited in their performance, this brutal quartet lack the dynamism and versatility of label-mates Dying Fetus, resulting in a relatively entertaining record […]
