We decide the appeal, filed by Arnel Zapata y Canilao (appellant), from the decision[1] and the
resolution[2] of the Court of Appeals (CA) dated November 28, 2007 and March 6, 2008, respectively, in CA-
G.R. CR-H.C. No. 02136. The CA decision affirmed in toto the October 12, 2005 decision[3] of the Regional Trial
Court (RTC), Branch 41, San Fernando City, finding the appellant guilty beyond reasonable doubt of violation
of Section 5, Article II of Republic Act (R.A.) No. 9165, otherwise known as the Comprehensive Dangerous
Drugs Act of 2002.
In its October 12, 2005 decision, the RTC found the appellant guilty of illegal sale of dangerous drugs
under Section 5, Article II of R.A. No. 9165. The RTC held that the witnesses for the prosecution were able to
prove that a buy-bust operation indeed took place; and the shabu subject of the sale was brought to, and duly
identified in, court. It found no improper motive on the part of the police officers to falsely testify against the
appellant. The lower court likewise disregarded the appellants claim of frame-up, as this defense can easily
be concocted and is a common and standard defense ploy in prosecutions for violation of dangerous drugs.
Accordingly, it ordered the appellant to suffer the penalty of life imprisonment, and to pay a P500,000.00 fine.
On appeal, the CA affirmed the RTC decision in toto. It held that the poseur-buyer positively identified
the appellant as the person who gave him two (2) transparent plastic sachets containing white crystalline
substances in exchange for P300.00. It added that the plastic sachets were submitted to the Philippine
National Police (PNP) Crime Laboratory for examination, and were found to be positive for the presence
of shabu. It likewise held that the defense failed to overcome the presumption that the police officers
regularly performed their official duties. The CA further ruled that the chain of custody over the seized items
was not shown to have been broken. It also took note of the admission of the appellants wife that the
appellant was a financier of drugs, as well as the positive result of the drug test conducted on the appellant.
Our Ruling
For a successful prosecution of offenses involving the illegal sale of drugs under Section 5, Article II of R.A. No.
9165, the following elements must be proven: (1) the identity of the buyer and the seller, the object of the
sale and the consideration; and (2) the delivery of the thing sold and the payment therefor. What is material
to the prosecution for illegal sale of dangerous drugs is the proof that the transaction or sale actually took
place, coupled with the presentation in court of the corpus delicti of evidence.[4]
The evidence for the prosecution showed the presence of all these elements. Police Officer (PO)3 John U.
Salcedo narrated in detail on how the police conducted a surveillance on the appellant for two months; and
how he and PO1 Edwin Carlos conducted the buy-bust operation. PO3 Salcedo duly and positively identified
the appellant as the person who sold to him two (2) transparent plastic sachets containing white crystalline
substances in exchange for P300.00. The white crystalline substances contained in the two plastic sachets
were later on confirmed to be methamphetamine hydrochloride or shabu, per Chemistry Report No. D-316-
2004 issued by the PNP Forensic Chemist, Police Inspector (P/Insp.) Maria Luisa David. The marked money
used in the entrapment operation was likewise positively identified by the arresting officers as the same one
provided and used in the buy-bust operation. PO1 Carlos corroborated PO3 Salcedos testimony on all material
points. Significantly, the appellant failed to produce convincing proof that the prosecution witnesses had any
improper or malicious motive when they testified.
Contrary to the appellants assertion, the chain of custody over the seized prohibited drugs was shown
not to have been broken. The evidence shows that after PO3 Salcedo received the two plastic sachets from
the appellant, PO3 Salcedo and PO1 Carlos brought the appellant and the confiscated items to the police
station. There, PO3 Salcedo immediately marked the two plastic sachets with JUS 1 and JUS
2, respectively.[5] PO3 Salcedo, thereafter, turned over the seized items to Senior Police Officer 3 Danilo
Fernandez who, in turn, made the appropriate requests for the laboratory examination of the seized items
and for the drug test on the appellant. On the same day, PO1 Ronwald Basa brought the plastic sachets and
the appellants urine sample to the PNP Crime Laboratory, where a certain SPO1 Sales received and
immediately forwarded the submitted specimens to P/Insp. David. The latter then examined the two heat-
sealed transparent plastic sachets marked as JUS 1 and JUS 2, and found them to be positive for the presence
of shabu. She likewise examined the appellants urine sample, and concluded that it tested positive for the
presence of shabu. When the prosecution presented the two plastic sachets in court, PO3 Salcedo positively
identified them to be the same items he seized from the appellant.
The prosecution thus established the crucial link in the chain of custody of the seized items from the
time they were first seized until they were brought for examination and presented in court. Clearly, the
integrity and the evidentiary value of the drugs seized from the appellant were duly proven not to have been
Finally, we stress that the appellant failed to raise the buy-bust team's alleged non-compliance with
Section 21, Article II of R.A. No. 9165 during trial; this argument cannot be raised for the first time on appeal.
At any rate, whatever minor deviations there might have been is not fatal, as failure to strictly comply with
Section 21, Article II of R.A. No. 9165 will not necessarily render the items confiscated from an accused
inadmissible; what is of utmost importance is the preservation of the integrity and evidentiary value of the
seized items, as these are the evidence critical in the determination of the guilt or innocence of the
accused.[6] In the present case, we find sufficient compliance by the police with the required procedure on the
custody and control of the seized items. The succession of events established by evidence shows that the
items seized were the same items tested, and subsequently identified and testified to in court.
WHEREFORE, the decision and the resolution of the Court of Appeals dated November 28, 2007 and March 6,
2008, respectively, in CA-G.R. CR-H.C. No. 02136 are AFFIRMED.

A New Linear Discriminant Analysis Method to Address the Over-Reducing Problem
Linear discriminant analysis (LDA) is an effective and efficient linear dimensionality reduction and feature extraction method. It has been used in a broad range of pattern recognition tasks including face recognition, document recognition and image retrieval. When applied to fewer-class classification tasks (such as binary classification), however, LDA suffers from the over-reducing problem – insufficient number of features are extracted for describing the class boundaries. This is due to the fact that LDA results in a fixed number of reduced features, which is one less the number of classes. As a result, the classification performance will suffer, especially when the classification data space has high dimensionality. To cope with the problem we propose a new LDA variant, orLDA (i.e., LDA for over-reducing problem), which promotes the use of individual data instances instead of summary data alone in generating the transformation matrix. As a result orLDA will obtain a number of features that is independent of the number of classes. Extensive experiments show that orLDA has better performance than the original LDA and two LDA variants – uncorrelated LDA and orthogonal LDA.
KeywordsDimensionality reduction Binary classification Linear discriminant analysis LDA for over-reducing problem
1 Introduction
Linear discriminant analysis (LDA) is an effective and efficient method for dimensionality reduction (feature extraction). It has been successfully used in many pattern recognition problems such as face recognition [1, 2], document recognition [3] and image retrieval [4, 5]. It uses within-class scatter matrix \(S_w\) to evaluate the compactness within same class, and between-class scatter matrix \(S_b\) to evaluate the separation between different classes. The objective of LDA is to find an optimal transformation matrix W which minimizes the within-class scatter matrix \(S_w\) and simultaneously maximizes the between-class scatter matrix \(S_b\).
In past two decades various improvements over the origianl LDA have been proposed in order to enhance its performance in different ways, resulting in different LDA variants. These LDA variants can be put into two categories. In the first category, the LDA variants attempt to tackle the singularity problem of within-class scatter matrix (\(S_w\)). In LDA, we take the leading eigenvectors of \(S_w^{ - 1}S_b\) as the columns of optimal transformation matrix W. In order to guarantee \(S_w\) nonsingular, it requires at least \(N+C\) samples [6], where N is data dimension and C is the number of classes. However, in realistic world it does not always happen and it is almost impossible in high-dimensionality space. Therefore, sigularity makes within-class scatter matrix irreversible and we can not use \(S_w^{ - 1}S_b\) to obtain transformation matrix W. In order to address the singularity problem, Li-Fen Chen et al. [1] proposed NLDA, which is short for null space linear discriminant analysis. It is based on a new Fisher's criterion function and calculates the transformation matrix in the null space of the within-class scatter matrix, which avoids the singularity problem implicitly. In [7] regularized linear discriminant analysis (RLDA) is proposed. It gets optimal constant \(\alpha \) by heuristic approach and adds \(\alpha \) to the diagonal elements of the within-class scatter matrix to overcome the singularity problem. Some new approaches are proposed to solve the singularity problem recently. For example, Alok Sharma et al. [8] proposed a new method to compute the transformation matrix W, which gave a new perspective to NLDA and presented a fast implementation of NLDA using random matrix multiplication with scatter matrices; Alok Sharma et al. [9] proposed an improvement of RLDA, which presented a recursive method to compute the optimal parameter; and Xin Shu et al. [10] proposed LDA with spectral regularization to tackle the singularity problem. Other LDA variants for solving the singularity problem can be found in [11].
In the second category, the LDA variants apply the original LDA in local data space instead of whole data space. For example, Zizhu Fan et al. [12] presented two local linear discriminant analysis (LLDA) approaches: vector-based LLDA (VLLDA) and matrix-based LLDA (MLLDA), which select a proper number of nearest neighbors of a test sample from a training set to capture the local data structure and use the selected nearest neighbors of the test sample to produce the local linear discriminant vectors or matrix. Chao Yao et al. [13] proposed a subset method for improving linear discriminant analysis, which divided the whole set into several subsets and used the original LDA in each subset. There are other LDA variants such as nonparametric discriminant analysis [14], sparse discriminant analysis [15], semi-supervised linear discriminant analysis [16], incremental LDA [17], tensor-based LDA [18], and local tensor discriminant analysis [19].
The original LDA and most of its variants have elegant mathematical properties, one of which being that the dimensionality of the data space can be reduced to at most one less the number of classes. One consequence is that if there are few classes in a data set, e.g., two classes in a binary classification problem, there will be one or only a few features left after the dimensionality reduction, probably insufficient for deciding the class boundaries. This leads to the over-reducing problem, meaning that dimensionality reduction is over done.
In this paper we propose changes to the original LDA to address the over-reducing problem. Instead of using only the means of each class and the whole data to evaluate the separation between different classes, our new LDA variant uses a new method to compute the between-class scatter matrix. As a result we get more between-class information and more features (than before) after dimensionality reduction even for binary classification.
The rest of the paper is organized as follows. Section 2 reviews the original LDA and two well known LDA variants – Uncorrelated LDA and Orthogonal LDA. Section 3 presents our orLDA, Sect. 4 presents our experimental results and Sect. 5 concludes the paper.
2 Linear Discriminnant Analysis
2.1 The Original LDA
From Eq. (2), we can see that LDA uses only the centers of classes and whole data set to compute between-class scatter matrix. This may lose much class-separating information. Because the rank of the between-class matrix is at most \(C-1\), the number of extracted features by LDA is at most \(C-1\). However, it is insufficient to separate the classes well with only \(C-1\) features, especially for binary classification in high-dimensional spaces.
2.2 Uncorrelated LDA and Orthogonal LDA
Uncorrelated LDA (ULDA) and Orthogonal LDA (OLDA) were presented in [21]. In this paper, Jieping Ye proposed a new optimization criterion to obtain the optimal transformation matrix \(W_{opt}\). \(W_{opt}\) is defined as: \(W_{opt}=X_qM\), where X is a matrix that simultaneously diagonalizes \(S_b\), \(S_w\), \(S_t\) 1, \(X_q\) is the matrix consisting of the first q columns of X, and M is an arbitrary nonsingular matrix. When M is the identity matrix, we can get Uncorrelated LDA algorithm and make features in the reduced space uncorrelated; however, if we let \(X_q\)=QR be the QR decomposition of \(X_q\) and choose M as the inverse of R, we get Orthogonal LDA algorithm and make the discriminant vectores of OLDA orthogonal to each other.
3 Linear Discriminnant Analysis that Avoids Over-Reducing
In this section we present the proposed changes to the original LDA in order to address the over-reducing problem, which are related to how to compute the between-class matrix.
It is clear that computing the between-class scatter matrix in this way will capture more between-class information than the original LDA hence we can expect better classification performance. Besides, by Eq. (5), we can get more than 1 feature in binary classification. According to linear algebra and Eqs. (4) and (5), we can obtain \(rank(S_b)=min(n,N-2)\) and \(rank(S_w)=min(n,N-2)\), where n is the dimensionality of data space and N is the total number of samples. Then we can find that the ranks of \(S_b\) and \(S_w\) depend only on n and N. Therefore, \(rank(S_w^{ - 1}S_b)=min(rank(S_w^{ - 1}), rank(S_b))\) is not limited by 1 extracted feature. Our optimal transformation matrix \(W_{opt}\) maximizes \( J(W)=\frac{W^T\widetilde{S_b}W}{W^T\widetilde{S_w}W}\) and we get the eigenvectors corresponding to the top eigenvalues of the eigenequation \( \widetilde{S_w}^{ - 1}\widetilde{S_b} \) as columns of \(W_{opt}\).
4 Experiments
In this section we take K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN, K=1) as the classifier and use ten-fold cross-validation to evaluate our method on three face datasets – ORL face database2, Labeled Faces in the Wild (LFW) [22], and Extended Cohn-Kanade [23]; and one DNA microarray gene expression datasets from Kent Ridge Bio-medical Dataset (KRBD)3.
The ORL face database consists of a total of 400 images of 40 distinct people. Each people has ten different images and the size of each image is 92*112 pixels, with 256 grey levels per pixel. All the images were taken against a dark homogeneous background with the subjects in an upright, frontal position.
LFW face dataset consists of 13,233 images of 5,749 people, which are organized into 2 views – a development set of 3,200 pairs for building models and choosing features; and a ten-fold cross-validation set of 6,000 pairs for evaluation. The size of each image is 250*250 pixels. All the images are collected from the Internet with large intra-personal variations. There are three versions of the LFW: original, funneled and aligned. In our experiment, we use the aligned version [24].
For the above two face datasets, we do face verification experiment, which is a binary classification problem. The goal of face verification is to decide if two given face images match or not. We use subset of view2 of LFW. We randomly choose 200 matched face pairs and 200 mismatched face pairs from view2 and crop each image to an image of 80 * 150 pixels as in [25]. However, for ORL face dataset, through randomly matching face images, we obtain 80 matched face pairs and 391 mismatched face pairs for face verification. Therefore, we have 400 samples of LFW and 471 samples of ORL. The dimensionality of each sample in LFW and ORL are 24,000 and 20,608, respectively.
Extended Cohn-Kanade dataset (CK+) is a complete dataset for action unit and emotion-specified expression. In this paper, we focus on emotion-specified expressions. There are 593 sequences from 123 subjects which are FACS coded at the peak frame, but only 327 of the 593 sequences have emotion sequences and use the last frame of each sequence to do expression classification. There are seven kinds of emotion expression, including: neutral, anger, contempt, disgust, fear, happy, sadness and surprise. Here, we do positive and negative expression classification experiment and take happy as positive expression and the rest of emotion as negative expression. Therefore, we have 69 positive expression samples and 258 negative expression samples and the dimensionality of each sample is 10,000.
Acute Leukemia dataset [26] consists of DNA microarray gene expression data of human acute leukemia data for cancer classification. There are two types of acute leukemia: 47 acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and 25 acute myeloid leukemia (AML), over 7129 probes from 6817 human genes.
We compare our orLDA with three discriminant dimension reduction methods, which are the original LDA, Uncorrelated LDA (ULDA) and Orthogonal LDA (OLDA) [21]. To guarantee that \( S_w \) does not become singular, we use two-stage PCA+LDA [27] – we reduce the data dimensionality by PCA, retaining principal components which explain \(95\,\%\) of variance, before original LDA and orLDA methods are used.

5 Conclusion
In this paper, we propose a new LDA, orLDA, to address the over-reducing problem associated with LDA. orLDA uses a new method to compute between-class scatter matrix, which contains more between-class information and allows extracting more features. Experiments have shown that orLDA outperformed the original LDA, ULDA and OLDA significantly on two face datasets, outperformed ULDA and OLDA on the gene expression dataset. orLDA achieved the same performance as the original LDA on the emotion expression dataset and the gene expression dataset, and underperformed ULDA and OLDA slightly on the emotion expression dataset. It is then reasonable to conclude that the new LDA variant is an improvement over the state of the art.

Kickstarter has taken the world of venture funding and turned it upside down. Kickstarter is a website where inventors and artists take an idea for something they could make, and create a page showing what they want to invent. Then, those who would buy the product if it were available, buy the product and as soon as the inventor has the item finished, mails it to the person who bought it. Many inventors, artists, and entrepreneurs have sold millions of dollars of products before even making the first production run of a prototype.
This may be a method that is unusual. Drive traffic to your lens the same as you would your blog. Link to your lens on social media platforms, like Twitter. The more people that know about the lens, the more that are apt to visit and purchase. The lens can also be used to promote products on e-bay or CafePress. Write a short description of the product and its unique uses and sell away.
Sugardaddie is also exactly what the name suggests. The site focuses on millionaires, sugar daddies and the women that would want to date them. There is a strong emphasis on relationships that benefit both parties. The site offers few specifics but the implication is that they pair attractive women with rich men. How well this works in practice isn't clear but the site (and the underlying concept) seems to be popular.
Understand that search engines are the key to most online marketing. Businesses are looking for ways to make sure their site and product are listed on the first page of a Google, Yahoo or Bing search. The main ways of doing this are SEO, meta tags, press releases, social media content, videos and paying for an ad to be placed at the top or side of the search page.
With around 50,000 courses available on topics such as video filming, production and editing from beginner to advanced levels, website design using various content management systems (Wordpress, Joomla, Drupal, etc) technical web development, graphic design, photography, 3D and animation, much of the content is marketing-focused even when it doesn't fall into the Marketing category.

People these days more than ever are taking their health into their own hands. They don't automatically trust what the government or their doctor tells them about their health or what they should do to be healthy. You've seen products in this niche everywhere: gluten-free, herbal remedies, supplements, detoxing… healing arts and products of all types. Anything that will promote a healthy lifestyle that helps avoid disease and makes you live longer.
When it comes to niches that are driven purely by emotion, very few are able to compete with the survivalist and prepper industries. Both are driven primarily by fear, which makes it incredibly easy to make money if you're able to deliver on the promises you make and provide high quality solutions to the problems that people in the market are having.
Twitch's affiliate program offers individuals the ability to earn revenue, while streaming. The platform focuses on standard video game streaming first, but includes coverage of the rapidly growing competitive eSports industry as well. Becoming a Twitch Affiliate enables streamers to earn as long as they stream on a frequent basis, with the option to accumulate revenue from the sale of games and their in-game items. They may also earn via 'Bits': virtual goods that viewers can offer, resulting in a share of the revenue for the streamer.
Thanks for the great article…although I have to point out many of the items listed are not passive but active, such as selling bodily fluids, writing blogs or resumes, and collecting bottles and cans. To be truly passive, the income source must require no effort on your part (after initial setup). Real estate, dividends, P2P lending…these are truly passive income sources.
The T-shaped marketer needs many skills, which once would not have been needed for marketers but are now key to being able to perform their roles effectively. For example, knowing the basics of HTML is essential to my role, and I'd be useless without it. I'm no expert, and if you told me to code a website it would look like a dog's dinner (there are probably nine-year-olds that know more about CSS than me) but the point is that although it is not an area I specialize in, I know enough to have a basic comprehension and make tweaks when they are needed. Similarly, I'm no Photoshop wiz, nor am I a master of InDesign, but being able to use these design tools is essential to my role and so, I need to know how to use them.
1. When gauging competition in terms of reviews you want to be looking at the top 10 sellers that come up organically, which you can quickly see using the JS Chrome Extension. The sponsored products are different, because any seller can bid on a search term and appear as a sponsored product in the Amazon search results (even products that just launched and have no reviews or sales yet).
Google also gives access to a large number of sites to put your ad on; these ads are not keyword based but intent and interest based. For example, you can place an ad for your furniture shop on a blog which writes about ideas on home making and interior decor. Here, you need to learn about ad placements, choosing websites, bidding, writing correct and engaging copies for your ads, designing good ads and designing landing pages.
Create and monetize an app. Mobile applications are a large and still-growing market that can provide you with a large amount of income if you know how to capitalize on it. The first and most challenging step, however, is creating an app that people actually want to use. Try to assess the need for an app by thinking of useful apps you would want or problems that can be solved by an app. Then, look for current apps that met these needs. If they aren't any, or if they aren't any quality ones, consider creating your own app.
If you have started looking for affiliate programs for the first time, you are ready to make a profit out of your website. Such programs are among the most simple and efficient ways to make a living online. To ensure that we are on the same page about affiliate programs, let's clarify what they are. Affiliate programs allow you to earn a profit by posting links or placing other affiliate tools that lead to other online merchants (such as Jetradar.com) and encouraging users to act in a certain way. For instance, to buy something, such as a flight ticket, or to complete a task — subscribe, create an account and so on.

Plan for Pointe Coupee Central High to be reworked
NEW ROADS - The Pointe Coupee School Board has asked Superintendent Linda D'Amico to rework plans for Pointe Coupee Central High.
The superintendent's plan to transform the school into a college readiness and career academy met criticism Monday from school board members and several residents who all had varying ideas about the campus' future.
Several board members said D'Amico's plan lacked the extracurricular amenities traditionally found in high school settings while others expressed doubts the idea would attract a diverse population of students to the campus.
The future of Central High has been a controversial issue since its forced shutdown by U.S. District Judge James J. Brady.
Brady also asked the board to develop a plan for Central High to be approved by the court.

OAKLAND, Calif. -- Three years ago, as the Cleveland Cavaliers celebrated the franchise's first NBA championship on the Golden State Warriors' home court, Draymond Green sat at his locker and sent a text message to Kevin Durant.

In an era dominated by superteams, a team built around a single star on an expiring contract overthrew the league's most dominant force (albeit a hobbled version) in a truly chaotic NBA Finals The thing to remember, I think, is that the Toronto Raptors were broken.
The free agency chase has become as important as the games themselves. Here's how the events of the NBA Finals may affect the forthcoming decisions for Kawhi Leonard, Kevin Durant, and Klay Thompson.
For the past decade, many of Smith's reports and predictions have failed to come to fruition. But what would basketball look like if sports media's most prominent talking head were always right? Being proved wrong isn't fun.
The Finals MVP used to only go to LeBron and the player who guarded him. Now the best player on a title team is the one who plays LeBron's role. There was never a question about who the NBA Finals MVP would be if the Raptors won.
Is a title enough to keep Kawhi Leonard in Toronto? And if not, are the Raptors headed for a long-awaited rebuild? Here are the major challenges facing Masai Ujiri this offseason.
Of course, euphoria had spread throughout the country by then. The longest 0.9 seconds in NBA Finals history was all that separated Toronto and the kind of certainty the city had been devoid of for more than a quarter-century. But around the world, closure had already come.

Five Sherpas surrounded the frozen corpse. They swung axes at the body's edges, trying to pry it from its icy tomb. They knocked chunks of snow from the body, and the shattered pieces skittered down the mountain.
Slopeside shenanigans, gallons of sprayed Champagne, celebrities behaving badly, and… ski gangs? It's all in a day's work at Aspen. In the late 1800s, as gold miners moved through the Colorado Rockies, they came upon the would-be ski resort of Aspen, with Mount Sopris as its crown jewel.
