Question Asked:
This morning it sounded like I ran over some debris or something fell off. Next thing I know I'm hearing a whistle, almost like a jet engine. I took a quick look under the hood, but didn't notice anything unusual. I'll have to look up under the engine in the morning to take a closer look at the undercarriage.
Question Answered:
I was having a similiar problem, changing the fuel filter helped it to run like new.

Build a Coffee Table to Fit Over Storage Ottomans
A custom coffee table with a marble inset is made to slide over a set of cushioned ottomans.
Tools and Materials:
3/4" poplar hardwood
3/4" plywood
1/2" plywood
marble tile remnant (ours was 15-1/2" x 12-3/4")
Brad nailer and nails
tape measure
wood glue
pocket screws and wood screws
sander and sandpaper
wood putty
paint, paintbrushes and rags
table saw and miter saw
power drill with a counter sink bit
pocket jig
1. Cut the pieces to length from the poplar boards. We made ours to fit over our ottomans.
Legs: (these pieces will be sandwiched together to make thick legs)
- 12 pieces at 2-1/4" x 20"
- 12 pieces at 2-1/4" x 24 1/2"
- trim - two pieces at 1-1/2" x 28"
- slats and trim - 20 pieces at 1-1/2 x 26 1/2"
2. To make the legs, build six frames out of the poplar. These frames will be glued and nailed together to create two 20" x 24-1/2" frames.
3. Sandwich the frames together so that the pocket holes are hidden on the inside and the joints are staggered at the corners. Fasten the frames to each other with glue and brad nails.
4. Fill any nail holes with wood putty and sand any rough edges.
5. To build the tabletop, cut a 26-1/2" x 26-1/2" plywood square – this will be the sub-top that the slats will be glued to.
6. Cut a piece of1/2" plywood to the size of your inset tile, (ours was 15-1/2" x 12-3/4").
7. Cut the slats for the table top to size. Dry fit them around 1/2" plywood for the tile. The tile should sit flush with the rest of the tabletop. Secure the slats to the sub-top with glue and nails.
8. Use the two remaining slat pieces and the trim pieces to trim around the table. Secure the pieces with glue and nails.
9. Fill any gaps on the table surface with wood putty and sand the tabletop so that it is smooth.
10. Use glue, a countersink bit and screws to fasten the legs to the underside of the sub-top.
11. Paint the table. When it is dry, seal it with polyurethane.
12. Set the marble tile remnant into the inset. The weight of the marble should keep the tile in place.

Pawnshops for Rich People
The Wall Street Journal published an interesting story a couple of months ago about a company serving as a pawnshop for the rich. Specifically, they allow individuals with high – end assets such as luxury cars and expensive jewelry to borrow up to millions of dollars against these assets without credit checks, like a pawnshop. Of course, this type of borrowing is more expensive than borrowing from the bank with interest rates climbing near 25 percent in some cases.
The interesting thing about this business is that it took so long to establish something like it for the wealthy. As banks have become more sophisticated about credit decision making, the days when people with expensive assets can easily acquire a line of credit at a bank are probably long gone. This difficulty in obtaining large amounts of credit is probably doubly true for the growing number of self-employed consultants and technology entrepreneurs who face considerably uncertainty over when the next check is coming: three weeks or three months from now.
Of course, there is always those people for whom this new way for people to get in debt is a bad thing. But I say this is a considerable improvement over the past options — loan sharks and such — where the high interest was typically coupled with the specter of pain or more upon default. People of all backgrounds and stripes will always need short term loans. Where there is demand, there will undoubtably be someone to supply it.
Working Vacations
After some time, I have decided to return to regular blogging. I'm in the throes of the two-sided coin that is summertime for an untenured academic: I have enormous amounts of unstructured time since I am not teaching or engaged in committee work; Unfortunately, almost all of it is spent working on research.
Hence, the blog — a useful respite from coding and writing if I am stuck in front of the computer anyway.
Stay tuned.
Public Housing Shortage?
Something odd is going on at the Chicago Housing Authority (CHA). Apparently CHA, in a rare situation for a public agency, is running a surplus– after bolstering its pension funds.
Unfortunately, this development has been met with disappointment and even anger in some circles. This anger stems from a belief that the current administration does not care that Chicago has a serious public housing shortage and the CHA neither seems to be bringing new units on the market nor the filling existing units in some areas.
Ultimately, whether this a "bad" thing or not is a, is a matter of perspective. It is well-known from public goods theory in economics that such goods, in this case high – quality public housing, will likely be underprovisioned in part because it requires a fair bit of redistribution (via taxes) to match people's preferences. Plus, the below market prices will generally induce a lot of people into the market leading to about who is entitled to it since you have taken away price as the chief rationing mechanism.
Certainly, the current situation is a bad thing if you have difficulty obtaining market-level housing as more units available means you have a higher probability of obtaining one and if there are negative externalities (more crime, disease, and so on) arise from housing shortages. Alternatively, using some of the money to bolster the pension fund and pay down debt probably contributes to the agency's long-term solvency. Given that most public agencies, especially in Chicago, have little to no reserves and are running red and that expected future funding for public projects is probably declining, it makes sense. Plus, with respect to public housing in very desirable areas, a question arises with respect to allocative efficiency. Though the welfare of citizens who would live in places like the Lathrop Homes or places like them might be improved by the the prosperous neighborhoods around it, it comes not only at the direct cost of management and maintenance but at the opportunity cost of taxes on residential and commercial real estate lost because the projects are there. These funds could potentially contribute to improving quality of life and public goods in other parts of the city.
Tom Magliozzi, 1937-2014
So many great Saturday mornings were spent listening to this man spar verbally with his brother. And I didn't own a car until I turned 27.
Originally posted on Longreads Blog:
Tom Magliozzi, the popular co-host of the public radio show Car Talk, passed away today at the age of 77. In 1999, Tom and his brother Ray gave a commencement address at MIT. Tom talked to the graduating class of engineers about a Latin mantra, non impediti ratione cogitatonis, which means "unencumbered by the thought process."
TOM: I was once trapped by the scientific, logic, left brain life. I graduated from here and I went to work as an engineer. And I will tell you about my defining moment. I was driving — I lived in Cambridge at the time — I was driving from Cambridge to my job in Foxboro, Massachusetts, and I was driving in a little MG. It weighed about 50 pounds and on Route 128 I was cut off by a semi and I almost, as they say, bought the farm. And as I…

Ex-post outrage
Ray Rice had his contract with the Baltimore Ravens terminated and was suspended indefinitely as a result of the release of video details the domestic violence incident that left his fiancee – now wife – unconscious. The video shows him striking her in the face and knocking her into the wall of the elevator — it is amazing she was not hurt more. After knocking her unconscious, in possibly the most disturbing part of the video, Rice dragged her out the elevator.
It is a harsh, though deserved punishment. A question arises, of course, as to why the NFL had to go through this twice. It doesn't take much imagination to surmise what must have happened in the elevator as reports of Mrs. Rice being knocked unconscious were well known. If they thought the act merited serious punishment, they should have done it initially, not after this video surfaced; even if the concern was the public relations, they should have meted out strong punishment at first with the option of walking it back later when things were a little less hot, so to speak.
Instead, they have made a mess of it. Their actions in response to this video make them seem less concerned for Janay Rice than for the NFL. Many of its formal and informal spokespeople are outraged — now. Rather than making a point, they reinforced the cynical opinion of them that they only care about profits and image. Probably because it's true.
Misconduct and Norms
The Chicago Tribune featured a story this morning about a Chicago police commander relieved of his duties pending indictments for aggravated battery and official misconduct. The commander, Glenn Evans, is accused of placing his gun in a suspect's mouth during an interrogation.
While certainly unwelcome news for the CPD and its constituents, the case highlights why focusing solely on the incidence of interracial police brutality and excessive force cases misses the point. Excessive force and brutality by police is not purely a "white officer" problem; changing the composition of police forces in the absence of changing the underlying policing culture is unlikely to reduce the incidence of such claims. Police brutality is a law enforcement problem. While it is true that it often occurs in racialized settings, this observation is partly driven by the composition of the police force and the spatial concentration of enforcement. Rough treatment is not reserved solely for blacks and Hispanics. Recall, for example, the "don't tase me bro" and University of California protest incidents in recent years. These incidents, ostensibly not driven by racial animus, reflect something that appears endemic among police forces: a belief that people that do not adhere perfectly to their commands should be punished severely.
In my experience, as a black male, I have been involved in as many negative situations with black policemen as I have had with white. In fact, the worst situation I have ever been in wherein a police officer forced my cousin and me to place our hands on the hot hood of his car while stood behind us with gun drawn instructing us that "if you move your hands off the f*cking car, I'll blow your head off" involved a black police officer. What prompted this little brouhaha? He felt we didn't give him "sufficient respect" when he rode by our perch on my cousin's stoop; we were apparently supposed to signal our subordination by looking away or down when he passed. It ended ok, of course; neither my cousin nor I had warrants or criminal records so we were able to continue our visit — within the house.
If not only race, what then? First, policing is a very difficult. My uncle, who happens to be a retired policemen, has also suggested that (A) the set of people for whom policing is attractive has changed in recent years and (B) their is a lot more latent fear and stress that becomes aggression in frustrating situations. The latter wouldn't be surprising to me. As the rewards and barriers to talent have changed, who actually signs for this potentially hard, dangerous, and relatively low paying job should change. We could fix this by raising pay and imposing stronger screening mechanisms. The latter, however, seems to be a bit more intractable as it is unclear what is driving these fears. On-the-job deaths and injuries among policemen have apparently dropped over the years. Violent crime, in general, has fallen as well.
What is clear, however, is that we need to figure it out before more tragedies like those seen in Ferguson, NYC, and Oakland occur.

As it turned out, Swedish laws allowed band outfits to be deducted against taxes if the costumes were so bizarre that they couldn't be considered street clothes.
Success on both counts.
"In my honest opinion, we looked like nuts in those years," said Ulvaeus. "Nobody can have been as badly dressed on stage as we were."

Michael Deal
Counselor, MA, LPC
"When working with individuals, I aim to help them through a collaborative process to understand the underlying issues that are causing them to not live up to their potential. The model which I employ assumes that many of our struggles are connected to conflicts within us of which we are not completely aware. I feel that therapy is most effective when the entire person's personality and history are considered instead of just focusing on current problematic behaviors. My work focuses on recognizing long standing relationship patterns that are troublesome as well as developing a more emotionally stable and adaptive personality.

Belmont's addition makes the Ohio Valley downright nasty
May 16, 2011, 12:15 PM EDT
The Ohio Valley just got tougher.
Murray State and Austin Peay are the conference's longtime powers. And Morehead State established itself as a NCAA tournament danger when it upset Louisville last March.
And now Belmont's joining the fun? Good luck trying to win consecutive titles in that league.
The Bruins have been to the big Dance four of the last five years and won at least 20 games in five of the last six. Last season was the best yet as they went 30-5 overall and breezed to the Atlantic Sun crown.
Expect one last A-Sun title – coach Rick Byrd has nearly every key player back – before they make the move to the OVC. The move will be official with the 2012-13 academic year.
So why leave? Money. Travel costs were killing the Nashville, Tenn., school. Now they'll be able to bus to nearly every conference game. From the AP:
Dr. Robert C. Fisher, Belmont's president, said the university will pay a $200,000 fee to leave the A-Sun, "but you don't have to get on a plane to go anywhere … and the students won't have to miss as many classes."
The school won't play OVC football, but basketball's enough. The new league is excited, and so is Byrd. (Hey, hoops fans should be too.)
"They have a long history of great teams," he said. "This is a great move."

295Rob Says:
I have been doing this for many years heroin matters how much and how often you use if first and foremost. 2nd how your liver is working. Heroin lasts in a persons system between 72 hours and 1 week maximum. The normal person will be clean by the 96th hour. A little longer for people using for a long time without stopping at all or have an active liver disease. This is factual and is correct.

Ok so i always read up on these and never see any follow ups. I figured i would post one to help other people. I am on probation, if i fail one drug screen im to be arrested and put under a $50,000 bond. I had taken on friday, cocaine & heroin. And then Saturday on the 4th of july i took a half of a subutex. I had a drug test coming up the following Wednesday. I have been super worried. With It being only about 4 days of a time gap. I drank a lot of water the day before, and the day of. A little over a gallon altogether. And drank coffee the morning of along with the water. Today is Wednesday "the day of" i went to see my probation officer at 4pm. I just got back. And am so happy to say i was negative. After sticking the dipstick in my urine and reading the negative results, she said "clean as a wistle." So it is possible people. I am 140 lb female, about 5'6. I used the bathroom a lot starting last night around 8pm till today when i had to see her at 4pm. My pee was very clear but still had a faint yellow tint, i drank a couple bottles of vitamin water to give my body vitamin b12 to help my urine keep some tint of yellow. I hope this helps someone out. I have read so many different comments on several different pages for days. No one ever really posts the out come so i wanted to do so for others looking for some insight. Good luck everyone!
...its been a couple days since i typed this and i wanted to add i know how hard it is to kick addiction, its not even about feeling high anymore, its about not getting sick...and the sickness, the withdrawal is the WORSE thing ive ever felt.

Yes youll be clean, guaranteed.
Heroin is detectable in your body 12-72 hours, depending on the frequency and quantity used, and how much liquids you intake.
Heroin is a water soluble drug, and can be flushed out of ones system with increased fluid consumption.
Marijuana on the other hand is not water soluble, and stores in lipids (fat) and requires excercise and diet to be expelled from ones body.
Have a nice day, and make better choices. If not for yourself, then for those you love.

291InfamousElle Says:

dude - That RIDICULOUSLY long.. it should NEVER take longer than 72 hours to leave your system unless your talking about opiates with longer half lives like methadone - and taken days in a row consistently to build up in your system ... but idk I mean unless your irregularly inactive and have a system equivalent to that of the dead than you really shouldn't have to worry after 72 hours. I think if it's taking up to 9 days its because there's some other factor here not being weighed in...

What is the best way to make Heroin water than can be used as nose drops. What additional ingredients can be added to the Heroin in the water before heating it up to dissolve everything. I know that is should only be heated until you see bubbles on the bottom and all solids are dissolved, but perhaps you guys know of a better method?

This is to anyone who has questions about cleaning your system. Whether it be heroin or oxycodone etc. The best way to clean your system is water and some cranberry pills or juice. When you're not drinking water drink some more. Drink drink drink drink! I used 6 30mg pills one evening and was curious to see if I could pass a drug test. Well long story short, I drank about 16 bottles of water that night and passed the drug test. Even the next day at work i took a test and passed that too. I ran into something with a forklift and a coworker of mine gave me the heads up the night before he heard management talking about drug testing me. Well they did!! I passed and that's that. Water water water! And if you're worried your pee is going to be too clear take vitamin B pills. Your urine will have some color. Good luck to everyone!

Heroin is water soluable which means it's stored in the water in your body. You drink lots of water and urinate a lot you can clean your body out very quick. Have passed ua for probation 24 hours after use and am 6'4 260lbs. Heroins half life is 3-8 min it's metabolites is 3.6 hours heroin is detectable for 1-4 days depending on use, quality, hydration levels.

Absolutely will be in your system 15 hrs later, I'm sure you already but that depends on how they get the results (sent to a lab or a cup that shows results on it immediately) & also depends on what they are testing for as a lot of drug tests don't look for buprenorphin, court ordered tests will test for everything but most jobs & other tests won't test for subs

YORUBA ORTHOGRAPHY

Yorùbá orthography comprises roman letters

With diacritical marks to indicate tone

under dot for some phone distinction

We focus on Uppercase letter in this work

The uppercase letters of the Yoruba orthography are

À A Á B D È E É Ẹ̀ Ẹ Ẹ́ F G GB H Ì I Í J K L M N Ò O Ó ̀Ọ Ọ Ọ́ P R Ş T Ù U Ú W Y.

AGIS 2011 Ethiopia
SCOPE

The Yoruba letters considered in this work are:

À Á È É Ẹ Ẹ̀ Ẹ́ Ì Í

Ò Ó Ọ ̀Ọ Ọ́ Ş Ù Ú

Notice that they all come from just six roman letters ( termed the six Bayesian classes ):

A E I O U S

REVIEW OF LITERATURE

Pattern recognition systems, including character recognition ones, include two main modules:

a feature extraction module

classification module (Duda et. al 2000).

This divides our literature review into two: a review of features, and a review of classifier techniques.

LITERATURE REVIEW OF FEATURES

Hu (1962) derived seven invariant geometric features (called Hu moment invariants) in terms of a number of normalized central moments.

But they contain redundant information and that are not invariant under affine transformations such as slants.

Teague (1980) addressed the problem of information redundancy by proposing the use of Zernike moments (ZM)

The problem of affine transformations was addressed by Flusser and Suk (1994) who derived a class of moments called Affine Moment Invariants (AMI) .

LITERATURE REVIEW OF FEATURES (CONTD)

AMIs were shown to be superior to Hu moments in experiments that involved the recognition of slanted characters. (Flusser and Suk; 1994)!

But AMIs are also not free from the information redundancy problem.

Although ZMs save on information redundancy, they are not very robust to noise.

Kan and Srinath (2002) compared ZMs with a class of moments known as Orthogonal Fourier-Mellin moments (OFMM).

LITERATURE REVIEW OF FEATURES (CONTD)

We concluded that OFMM leads to lower noise to signal ratio.

BUT, it is computationally too involved.

We adopted the Frey and Slate (1991) approach which involves less computations.

This approach has been used successfully, e.g Schwenk and Bengio (1997), Breuel (2003), and Husnain and Naweed (2009).

LITERATURE REVIEW OF FEATURES (CONTD)

This approach is to essentially augment low order geometric moments with intuitively defined features.

This is the direction we favor in this work.

THE PROPOSED SYSTEM

The system we have developed comprises six stages:

a pre-processing stage;

a segmentation stage;

a feature extraction stage;

a Bayesian classification stage;

a decision tree;

A stage for combining the results of the previous two stages into a single class label

ILLUSTRATION OF THE SYSTEM Output class label roman letter diacritical marks Pre-processing stage Input Yoruba character Segmentation stage Feature extraction stage Decision tree stage Results fusion stage Bayesian classification stage
DATA PREPARATION AND THE PRE-PROCESSING STAGE

The Bayesian Stage of our system is data-driven.

The Bayesian classifier serves to distinguish amongst the six Bayesian classes:

 A E I O U S

For each of the six Bayesian classes, we collected 48 handwritten samples from volunteer writers.

DATA PREPARATION AND THE PRE-PROCESSING STAGE (CONTD)

Our volunteer writers were male and female students of the Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, Osun state Nigeria whose ages lied essentially between sixteen and thirty five years.

Volunteers wrote on plain white A4 sheets.

Each volunteer provided a single sample of each of the seventeen characters

DATA PREPARATION AND THE PRE-PROCESSING STAGE (CONTD)

The A4 sheets were scanned, and with the aid of Paint graphics program, we cropped 40 samples of each of the Bayesian classes.

Of these, we used 40 samples per Bayesian class to train the Bayesian classifier.

We reserved eight samples from each of the seventeen classes for system evaluation.

DATA PREPARATION AND THE PRE-PROCESSING STAGE (CONTD)

In the Matlab environment, we pre-processed each of the samples that were used to train the Bayesian classifier using the following simple steps:

conversion of color character image to binary form; removal of "salt and pepper" noise; computation of bounding box; and normalization of resulting image to fit a grid.

CHARACTER DATA PROCESSING Cropped character Character after Binarisation Character after Noise removal Character and its bounding
THE SEGMENTATION STAGE

The segmentation stage attempts to isolate the roman letter from the diacritical marks.

It is able to handle both connected-at-core characters and broken-at-core characters.

The roman letter of connected-at-core Yoruba characters do not contain breakages; the roman letter of broken-at-core Yoruba characters do.

A Connected-at-core Yoruba character. An under dot (tail) in the lower region of a Yoruba character. The lower region ( LR ) of a Yoruba character A grave mark in the upper Region of a Yoruba character. (Goes to the decision tree). Yoruba character. The upper region ( UR ) of a Yoruba character . The middle region ( MR )of a Yoruba character character. The roman letter of a Yoruba character.
A BROKEN-AT-CORE YORUBA CHARACTER A tail in the LR of a Yoruba character. The largest object in a Yoruba character. The character's RCLO The character's LR. ( This LR corresponds to the RBLO) The RBLO of a Yoruba character. ( This RBLO corresponds to the LR) A diacritical mark in the UR of a Yoruba character. A pseudo- diacritic in the RALO character. A breakage in the roman letter of a Yoruba character The RALO of a Yoruba character .( This RALO does not correspond to the UR) The UR of a Yoruba character .
SOME TREMINOLOGIES USED IN FIGURE

UR: Upper Region

MR: Middle Region

LR: Lower Region

RALO: Region Above Largest Object

RCLO: Region Containing Largest Object.

RBLO: Region Below Largest Object.

THE SEGMENTATION ALGORITHM

Identify the largest object in the image by finding the object with the maximum area.

2) Do a tentative segmentation of the image into regions: the region above the largest object (RALO); the region containing the largest object (RCLO); and the region below the largest object (RBLO).

3) If RALO contains two objects, release the lower one into RCLO.

4) If RALO contains a single object, calculate the absolute value of

the object's slope.

THE SEGMENTATION ALGORITHM (CONTD)

If the slope in step 4 above is less than 0.35,

release this single object into RCLO .

If RBLO contains two objects, release the upper one

into RCLO.

If RBLO contains a single object, calculate the

absolute value of the object's slope.

If the slope in step 7 above is less than 2.0, release

this single object into RCLO .

THE DECISION TREE STAGE

The segmentation stage isolates the roman letter from the diacritical marks.

The decision tree takes the diacritical marks and tries to recognize them.

CHARACTER DECISION TREE GWT Grave With Tail; AWT Acute With Tail GDT Grave Devoid of Tail; ADT Acute Devoid of Tail; MWT Macron With Tail MDT for macron devoid of tail. Number of Elements up 0 GDT Slope up MDT Slope up 0 Number of elements down 1 Number of elements down GWT ADT MWT +ve -ve 0 1 -ve +ve AWT
TERMINOLOGIES IN THE DECISION TREE

GWT: Grave With Tail

AWT: Acute With Tail

GDT: Grave Devoid of Tail

ADT: Acute Devoid of Tail

MWT: Macron With Tail

MDT: Macron Devoid of tail

THE FEATURE EXTRACTION STAGE

The segmentation isolates the roman letter of the Yoruba character from the diacritical marks.

The roman letter goes to a Bayesian classifier via a feature extraction stage.

The feature extraction stage extracts eight geometric features.

THE EIGHT GEOMETRIC FEATURES WE EMPLOYED

Mean of character widths

Mean of character heights

Correlation of character heights with horizontal position.

Second order normalized central moment

THE EIGHT GEOMETRIC FEATURES WE EMPLOYED

BAYESIAN DECISION THEORY (BDT) AND THE BAYESIAN CLASSIFIER STAGE.

Bayesian Decision Theory is a fundamental tool in pattern recognition.

It has been applied with success in the character recognition domain (Husnain and Naweed; 2009).

Roughly speaking, a Bayesian classifier puts an object in the class it has the highest probability of belonging to.

BDT AND THE BAYESIAN CLASSIFIER STAGE (CONTD).

Here is Baye's formula :

c is the number of Bayesian classes (six)

is the posterior probability

BDT AND THE BAYESIAN CLASSIFIER STAGE (CONTD).

is the class-conditional probability. We take it to be a Gaussian for handwritings (Duda et. al 2000).

is the prior probability

is called the evidence: it is the same across all classes.

BDT AND THE BAYESIAN CLASSIFIER STAGE (CONTD).

We can view Baye's formula as a decision rule formula with a zero-one cost function (Duda et. al 2000).

Using the facts that decision rules are not affected by: addition of constants; multiplication by positive constants; and the effect of strictly increasing functions, such as the natural logarithm function, we can ultimately obtain a decision rule formula equivalent to Baye's rule (Duda et. al 2000):

BDT AND THE BAYESIAN CLASSIFIER STAGE (CONTD).

The above equation is the form we employed in our Bayesian classifier.

is the extracted feature; it is 8-dimensional.

is the covariance of the i-th class,

being its determinant and its inverse.

BDT AND THE BAYESIAN CLASSIFIER STAGE (CONTD).

is the mean feature vector of the i-th class.

The rule is to compute for all from 1 to and pick the class corresponding to the maximum.

The obtained result is fused with the result of the decision tree in a result fusion stage.

THE RESULT FUSION STAGE

Result fusion is handled in our system by the following equation:

is the final class label produced by the system. It can take integer values between 1 and 17

THE RESULT FUSION STAGE (CONTD)

is the label from the Bayesian classifier. This is an integer value between 1 and 6.

tracks tonal marks. = 0 indicates macrons, = 1 indicates grave marks.

= 2 indicates acute marks.

tracks under dots = 0 indicates absence of under dot = 3 indicates

presence of under dot.

THE RESULT FUSION STAGE (CONTD)

is a function of that "pads the equation up" to achieve the neat one-to-one correspondence:

characters À Á È É Ẹ Ẹ̀ Ẹ́ Ì Í Ò Ó Ọ ̀Ọ Ọ́ Ş Ù Ú final_label 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17
THE RESULT FUSION STAGE (CONTD)

is defined in the table below:

bdt_label f(bdt_label) 1 -1 2 0 3 4 4 5 5 9 6 9
RESULTS

We tested the system in two folds.

In the first fold, with eight independent samples from each of the seventeen classes.

A recognition rate of 91.18% was obtained.

RESULTS (CONTD)

In the second fold, we tested the system with 3 non-independent samples from each of the six Bayesian classes.

A recognition rate of 94.44% was obtained.

CONCLUSION AND FUTURE WORK

In summary, we have developed a technique for the classification of diacritically marked uppercase Yorùbá handwritten charaters in offline mode.

Our system involves six stages:

Pre-processing

Segmentation

Decision tree

Feature extraction

Bayesian classification

Result fusion

Conclusion cont…

We built the Bayesian stage using forty samples per Bayesian class.

We tested the system on independent and non-independent samples.

On independent samples, a recognition rate of 91.18% was obtained.

On non-independent samples, a recognition rate of 94.44 % was recorded.

ONGOING WORK

We plan to extend this work in two directions:

We wish to extend the system to cover the entire Yorùbá orthography, including the lower case letters and cursive scripts.

Instagram has been accused of fattism after it censored a plump, underwear-clad bottom while continuing to allow countless skinnier, skimpier clothed bodies to remain.
The owner of the banned round rear, Meghan Tonjes, has taken her bottom's rejection to another social medium, YouTube, to argue that Instagram had double standards and appeared to find fat bottoms pornographic, yet allowed skinnier women, wearing much less, to continue to post pictures.
Ms Tonjes, a Californian musician and video blogger, said she posted pictures of her body on Instagram as part of her story of her weight loss.
"I have pride for my curves - my still very fat body, I like a lot,'' Ms Tonjes said.
She posted her ''belfie'' in black underwear, but on May 18 Instagram told her the picture breached community guidelines, including its nudity and ''mature content'' clause.
In her YouTube address (see below), Ms Tonjes said she was not nude, leaving only ''mature content'' as the reason for the ban.
But she said many other photographs of skinny women wearing lingerie and g-string bikinis continued to be posted on Instagram with impunity. She said by taking her picture down it was continuing a bias against fatter women.
''I want you to think of how many big girls you see on the internet, on television, in magazines, wearing bathing suits, lingerie, shorts, dresses, tight-fitting clothing, who aren't openly mocked, who aren't torn apart as being disgusting,'' she said.
''We call mature content things that we are uncomfortable with - that's why people have an issue with women breastfeeding in public, because we are taught that breasts are inherently sexual. That a body that is exposed is inherently sexual,'' she said.
Instagram told the Huffington Post: ''Instagram's community guidelines do not allow nudity and other mature content".
''We do this because some audiences within our global community are particularly sensitive to this type of content.
''When we receive reports of posts that violate our policies, we reach out to the person with a warning and the content is removed.
''It is important to understand that the posts we act upon are almost exclusively brought to our attention by other people who complain about their presence on the platform.''
Ms Tonjes said she did not blame Instagram for other people's fattist bias but said without an obvious means of appeal, it was perpetuating the problem.
She said an appeal process was needed to stop a vindictive person from targeting others' accounts and having them shut down.
Ms Tonjes always sent pictures she was posting of her behind to her mother before posting them on Instagram.
She has previously been censored by Tumblr for posting ''pornographic'' material after posting a picture of herself in a sports bra and underwear: ''Completely covered, but fat. Therefore - pornographic''.
Ms Tonjes said she planned to start a video channel on plus-size beauty: ''(We) Need more plus-size bitches in the beauty world, yeah,'' she said.
By 9am, 141,692 had viewed the video on YouTube.

Out Da Box TV - Jay Electronica In Deep Thought - Interview18:10
After a short break in the month of August, Out Da Box TV is proud to be back in effect! Our time a way, however was due to one of the greatest joys a person could ever experience. Yes, yours truly, became a father with the birth of my son in the month of August. So on return, it's only right we come back with an extra special episode, featuring one of the most talked about and talented emcee's in the game. Just in time for his birthday this Sunday (Sept.19) we are proud to bring you an in-depth conversation with the acclaimed New Orleans emcee "Jay Electronica". In this piece, Jay touches on a number of topics that provide an intimate understanding of who he is and what has shaped him to be the person we see. He talks about his ability to stay humble and grounded among all of the success that has come his way, and goes on to express relations with his family and how his grandmother has shaped him to be who he is today. Among other influences is that of his recent mate Erykah Badu, and what he has learned from relating with her. He assures his fans who are eagerly waiting for a full length project, that no matter what they can always expect quality music from him. The Brother is definitely working! and we are eager to see what he comes with next. In the meantime, take a moment to check out this in-depth interview with the man himself, we hope this keeps you hype, until Jay finally releases his long awaited Act II mixtape, (which I hear is actually coming really soon). Thanks to all of my Out Da Box TV supporters and stay tuned for more great features as we move through the rest of the year. We'd like to give a special Happy Birthday shout out to Jay Electronica as he celebrates his birthday this Sunday (We need Act II!). Enjoy!+ More details

Hooping on Hosea with ATL mural02:06
Warning: profane lyrics. She says "shit", ya'll. But this is song is arguably the quintessence of 1990s Atlanta music, certainly the most brilliant song from an Atlanta-connected artist about calling someone on the phone. It's Erykah Badu's song "Tyrone" from her live album. Get it and the whole album on itunes. Hoopers vlog: This is some silliness. It's me playing while talking on the phone with my dear friend Becca who now lives far away. I hope it makes her smile to see what I was doing while we discussed our toddlers' antics. Even though she's in Kentucky, we're still hooping together :) The mural is by email@example.com.+ More details

Writing a Business Plan mentor Rhonda Abrams responds:
If you're looking for money for your business, one of the key things investors want to see is that you're serving a big enough market. But what does that mean?
First, let me commiserate with you. You may have a great idea for a new service or have invented a wonderful new product, and you think that should be good enough to raise money. It's not. Sorry, but unless you need only a small amount of money, investors need more than a great idea; they want a great market, too.
If you are seeking a substantial sum of money from venture capital firms, you're going to need to show that you have a very large market. After all, these investors want to know that your business can grow big enough to build a company that can go public and return their investment many times over.And because venture capitalists often invest millions of dollars in a company, they're apt to look for markets with a total size of at least hundreds of millions of dollars.
Realistically, venture capitalists look for companies serving markets in excess of $1 billion. In fact, the size of your market will be a key factor in deciding whether a venture capital firm will seriously review your business plan. If you don't have a huge market, venture capital is probably not for you.
But other funding sources (such as private angel investors or friends and family) don't need such stratospherically sized markets. They just want to see that your market is large enough and competitive enough for you to be able to gain a foothold and build a profitable company. In fact, if your company is new or small, trying to reach a big market may be ill advised. After all, it's expensive to advertise and promote your company in a large market. Instead, choosing to serve an underserved niche market may be a better approach. But investors still want numbers. So find the data to support your claims as to the size of the market.
