How long does it take for DNS records to propagate? I am aware it is common practice to standardize the features for ridge and lasso regression, however, would it ever be more practical to normalize the features on a (0,1) scale as an alternative to z-score standardization for these regression methods? Ignore .DS_Store and Icon files in a folder with Cocoa NSFIleManager CPU time out limit was being hit while processing child records on the inline opportunity visualforce page, to handle this i wrote a remoteActionFunction on the page that invokes controller method that's taking long to process and when i get CPU LIMIT exception in the result, i am invoking javascript call back function that invokes a action function which handles the same code asynchronously(@future).  Question: by setting the timeout (Visualforce.remoting.timeout = 120000;) can't we overcome CPU TIME out limit of 10,000 ms.

Radius of convergence of a sum of power series I have  two series  $\displaystyle\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} a_n x^{n}$   $\displaystyle\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} b_n x^{n}$  with radius of convergence $2$ and $3$ respectively.  How can I find the radius of convergence for the following?     $\displaystyle\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} (a_n +b_n)x^{n}$   Can anyone help me? Can US citizens go to Cuba freely and vice versa after the recent diplomatic relation restoration? A recent full diplomatic relation restoration between the US and Cuba took place, does that mean that US citizens can go to Cuba freely and vice versa? Sum of reciprocals of numbers with certain terms omitted I know that the harmonic series $1 + \frac12 + \frac13 + \frac14 + \cdots$ diverges. I also know that the sum of the inverse of prime numbers $\frac12 + \frac13 + \frac15 + \frac17 + \frac1{11} + \cdots$ diverges too, even if really slowly since it's $O(\log \log n)$.  But I think I read that if we consider the numbers whose decimal representation does not have a certain digit (say, 7) and sum the inverse of these numbers, the sum is finite (usually between 19 and 20, it depends from the missing digit). Does anybody know the result, and some way to prove that the sum is finite? Evaluate $\lim_{y\to 0} \dfrac {(x+y)\sec (x+y) - x\sec x}{y}$ Evaluate $\lim_{y\to 0} \dfrac {(x+y)\sec (x+y) - x\sec x}{y}$.  My Attempt: $$=\lim_{y\to 0} \dfrac {(x+y) \sec (x+y) - x\sec x}{y}$$ $$=\lim_{y\to 0} \dfrac {x\sec (x+y) + y\sec (x+y) - x\sec x}{y}$$ $$=\lim_{y\to 0} \dfrac {x(\sec (x+y) - \sec x) + y\sec (x+y)}{y}$$ Show that if m/n is a good approximation of $\sqrt{2}$ then $(m+2n)/(m+n)$ is better why each left ideal of this is minimal? Form within a block I'm using drupal_get_form('event_signup_form') to embed my custom form inside a block. The form is being rendered as intended, but submitting the form triggers nothing.  The form function itself is called event_signup_form($form, &amp;$form_state) and the submit function is called event_signup_form_submit($form, &amp;$form_state) but it's not being called.  I am using  to show the form:  function event_block_view($delta = '') { $blocks = array(); if ($delta ...) { $blocks['content'] = drupal_render(drupal_get_form('event_signup_form')); } }   I managed to get this working - here is how (stub):  function hook_block_view($delta = '') { $blocks['content'] = drupal_render(drupal_get_form('event_signup_form')); }  function event_signup_form() { // Register form submit handler, same goes for validation handler $form['#submit'][] = 'event_signup_form_submit';  return $form; }  function event_signup_form_submit($form, &amp;$form_state) { // This is now triggered } Bound on the difference of two determinants Let $A$ and $B$ be two real, $n\times n$ matrices. Using Hadamard's inequality, it is not hard to show that $$ \left|\det A - \det B \right| \leq \|A-B\|_{2} \frac{\|A\|_{2}^n -\|B\|_{2}^n}{\|A\|_2 -\|B\|_2}. $$ Where $\|A\|_2=\sqrt{\sum_{i,j}a_{ij}^2}$.  From this, I can derive a sup bound, for example  $$ \left|\det A - \det B \right| \leq n^{n+1} \|A-B\|_{\infty} \max (\|A\|_{\infty}^{n-1},\|B\|_{\infty}^{n-1}). $$ Where $\|A\|_\infty=\sup_{i,j}|a_{ij}|$.   The constant $n^{n+1}$ is not the best bound possible : any reference (or proof) for a better (or the best) one? I show below that one can obtain $n^2(n-1)^{n-1}$, but that isn't much better. I just tried  $10^5$ random matrices on Maple and obtained a maximal constant (much) smaller  than one : this is not a proof, but it looks like there is room for improvement nevertheless.    Just for completeness (and in case someone sees a factor I missed), to get the first bound, writing $A=[A_1,\ldots,A_n]$ in terms of its column vectors, an expansion shows \begin{eqnarray*} \det A &amp;=&amp; \det (A_1 -B_1,A_2,\ldots,A_n) + \det (B_1,A_2,\ldots,A_n) \\   &amp;=&amp; \sum_{j=1}^n \det (B_1,\ldots, B_{j-1}, A_j -B_j,A_{j+1},\ldots,A_n) \\ &amp;&amp; + \det B,  \end{eqnarray*} Thus by Hadamard's inequality, \begin{eqnarray*} \det A -\det B &amp;\leq&amp;  \sum_{j=1}^n \prod_{i=1}^{j-1} \|B_i\|_{2}\prod_{i=j+1}^{n} \|A_i\|_{2} \|A_j-B_j\|_{2} \\ &amp;\leq&amp;  \|A-B\|_{2} \sum_{j=1}^n \|B\|^{j-1}_{2}\|A\|^{n-j}_{2} \\  &amp;=&amp; \|A-B\|_{2} \frac{\|A\|_{2}^n -\|B\|_{2}^n}{\|A\|_2 -\|B\|_2}. \end{eqnarray*}  The second bound is just that $x^n -y^n\leq n \max(|x|^{n-1},|y|^{n-1}) |x-y|$ and $\|A\|_2 \leq n\|A\|_\infty$.    Another approach is calculus, namely, to write that $\det B - \det A = f(1)-f(0)$, with $f(t)=\det(A + t(B-A))$.   By the mean value theorem $f(1)-f(0)\leq \max |f^\prime (t)|$.   We can compute that $$f^\prime(t) =  {\rm trace}\left({\rm Cofm}(A +t(B-A))(B-A)\right)$$  (if I did not mess up, using the formula for the differential of a determinant, where Cofm means the matrix of Cofactors).   Then, it should deliver something better, if there is a nice way to bound it. The simplest thing is to use Cauchy-Schwarz, namely $$ \left|{\rm trace}\left({\rm Cofm}(A +t(B-A))(B-A)\right)\right|\leq \|B-A\|_{2} \|{\rm Cofm}(A +t(B-A))\|_{2} $$ and then, by lack of a better idea,  $$ \|{\rm Cofm}(A +t(B-A))\|_{2}\leq n \max_{ij} |{\rm Cof}_{i,j}(A +t(B-A))|, $$ and brutally, $|{\rm Cof}_{i,j}(A +t(B-A))|\leq ((n-1) \max(\|A\|_\infty,\|B\|_\infty))^{n-1}$ gives a slightly better constant, namely $$ n^2(n-1)^{n-1} &lt;n^{n+1} $$ but that still seems a very rough way to bound a determinant, as it is never sharp, since to attain this bound all coefficients should be equal, and therefore the cofactor would be zero. They are of the same order in $n$, and I suspect this order is wrong. Remove application from Google Launcher What do I need for extreme macro photography? I am wanting to venture into some extreme macro photography, specifically insects, such as . After doing some research I have believe that my 1::25 macro lens will be sufficient if I am to use some extension tubes (which I have bought).  I would like to shoot the in the wild, is this possible/likely? Or is this always a catch, then release style of shooting?  Regarding the link I've posted, would this be possible with a 1:25 macro and extension tubes? I have a set of three (21mm, 31mm and 13mm). How would you go about shoot a blue bottle for example? Surely they are going to fly away? Should I use a tripod or will that cause more of a hindrance than a help? Are there any techniques/tricks I could use to get a sharp focus on my subject? How do I stop Outlook Out-Of-Office from replying to certain addresses? When I am out of the office, if I turn Out-of-Office on, it auto-replies to the automated emails I get from our Bug Tracking system, which leads to our Bug Tracking system getting full of message about my holiday.  With Outlook Out-of-Office, how do I set it to not respond to certain 'From' addresses? I see its something to do with the optional Rules in the O-o-O dialog, but its not that clear how to stop it from replying using the rules.  I'm on Outlook 2003 and Exchange 2003 but advice for any version will probably be useful to people. In this sentence:  "We would also accept an international transfer, but in that case we would ask you to pay your bank's charges at the time of the instruction to ensure that we received the full amount"  is it correct to use "received" or should it be in present tense?
