The jury (takes / take) their seats in the courtroom.  I understand that 'the jury' refers to a singular group but does this apply when it is referred to as a plural in 'their'? Thanks.
Possible Duplicate:             What is correct? The jury was divided or The jury were divided? I am told that the latter is accurate because all of the jury do not have the same opinion in the particular case. Then, how does the subject verb agreement fit in 'The jury is still out' ? I mean, 'The jury is out' would allude to a situation were the opinion on a matter is (are?) still divided.
Effect of each parameter on a Monte Carlo Simulation I was wondering what is the best way to determine the effect of each random parameter on the result obtained from a Monte Carlo Simulation.  I realise I have asked a similar question , but this time I am making this question in a more general manner as I didn't get any answers previously.   Background: I'm essentially running a Monte Carlo Simulation where I sample randomly from 65 Normal Distributions and 2 Uniform Distributions. Then, i then input these values to a linear equation and run this for 500.000 iterations. I just wanted to determine the best way to establish the relative effect of each of these 67 (in total) random variables on the final outcome from my Monte Carlo Simulation. Following , this is how we correctly make the r sound:   Let the throat vibrate since it is voiced. Round the lip a little. Raise the tip of the tongue towards the hard bump behind the upper front teeth,  but do not let the tip of tongue touch the bump. This also makes the center of the tongue go down. The back part of the tongue is raised because you pull it into a tight ball Fold and raise the sides of the tongue so they touch the upper side-teeth.   If we follow the above requirement, our tongue should have an s shape when we pronounce the r sound as depicted in the following sketch:    Is it possible to raise the tip while raising the back and lowering the center of the tongue when making an r sound?   How do native speakers make an r?  P.S. My tongue is very short anyway! Why would I use manual camera controls instead of the automatic modes? I'm very new to digital photography, so I still haven't gotten the hang of all this exposure and ISO stuff, etc. I have a Canon EOS T3.   My question is how big of a difference does it make using manual settings rather than auto settings for everything? I've taken some pretty nice photos with all auto settings, and I'm not sure if it could have turned out any better using manual settings. I know that there are some people who have been in the game for years upon years, and to them they can notice the difference between photos taken with manual vs auto settings, but for my situation, do you think it really makes a difference? Is my camera smart enough to determine the best settings for me?  Also, lets say manual settings are better (which I'm sure they are, since they give you greater control). How often are you supposed to adjust your settings? Between every shot, considering they are unique shots? Or does it not matter about the object, but rather the lighting environment? So if I'm in a forest at 2:00 PM on a sunny bright day and I take photos for one hour, should I be constantly adjusting my settings between every unique shot to get the best out of it? Or do I usually just find one setting that works for the environment I'm in? I have a friend who has got a computer that is not connected to the Internet. Is there any way to install software offline easily? I just bought a used  and it comes with regular rim brakes. I'm perfectly happy with them so far, but have been wondering if disc brakes would come handy when it rains.  What is involved in converting a bike from rim brakes to disc brakes (mechanical or hydraulic)?   Is this something that is feasible, or am I better off buying another bike that already has disc brakes? Can an Indian travel to India with 50 days before passport expires? Complex differential equation How do I solve $$x'=e^{it}\overline{x}?$$  This is a complex differential equation, but I don't see how to solve it.  Edit: the original ODE is given by $$(x', y')=\begin{pmatrix}\cos t&amp; \sin t\\ \sin t&amp;-\cos t\end{pmatrix}(x,y)$$ I want to show that solutions of this ODE do not remain bounded for all $t$, and the idea was to solve the complex equation. Note: this post is different to , which just cites part from somewhere else, without any further analysis and thinking. Furthermore, none of the answers to that post answers my question - the situations where &quot;will (going to) be doing&quot; is more appropriate.   I will be participating in IELTS test next Tuesday afternoon.  In an online class, the teacher says the following at the beginning of the lesson.  I will be using NotePod (pointed out by red rectangle) to write relevant points we talk about today.   I guess &quot;will be using&quot; is more appropriate than &quot;will use&quot; there, right?  A  explains  This &quot;tense&quot; is used for reporting a scheduled activity with special focus on its timing— as if one is standing in the future and experiencing the flow of the time. The focus is on the temporary, ongoing, or repetitive nature of the activity.   I understand the grammar rules of those verb tenses and the difference between this group  I am going to drive home tomorrow.   I am going to be driving home tomorrow.  The former is just convey my activity in the near future while the latter probably makes an implication that &quot;don't disturb me as I am driving in that time&quot; However, in the following situations, I don't see the difference between 2 verb tenses.  Welcome back to this class.

Billing Information Required for App Updates I'm trying to update 3 apps on my iPad and 3 things happen that never usually happen.   It asks me to sign in. It asks for my billing information. My card gets denied.   Now I know my card still works fine so that isn't the problem. The same thing happens when I try to install previously downloaded apps (that cloud button) or install new free apps.  I have no outstanding payments (is it even possible to have outstanding payments with Apple?) so why is this happening?  In case it's needed, I'm using an iPad Air running the latest version. 16GB Harddrive and Wi-Fi only.  I should also make it clear that "None" isn't an option for payment. ASP.NET MVC controller actions that return JSON or partial html mkdir error: no such file or directory on a linux machine running CENTOS v 7.8.2003 I am in a directory Neutrinos I now do  mkdir /pionloop/ this works. I then go to into this new directory pionloop and do mkdir /E_0.3 and this works as well. I thus have as a result a directory Neutrinos/pionloop/E_0.3.  Now, starting in Neutrinos I want to do this in one command and therefore do mkdir /pionloop/E_0.3 and get: `mkdir: cannot create directory ‘/pionloop/E_3.0’: No such file or directory  What is going wrong here?? Suppose you have an object with zero for the value of all the derivatives of position. In order to get the object moving you would need to increase the value of the velocity from zero to some finite value. A change is velocity is acceleration, so the value of the acceleration would have to increase from zero to some value. You would also need to increase the jerk from zero to some value to have a change in acceleration.  Is there an infinite series of higher derivatives of position for this to work? Or am I missing something? What can an app do with the "USE ACCOUNTS ON THE DEVICE" permission? Can such an app freely read my emails/calendar/message/docs/etc.?  The "USE ACCOUNTS ON THE DEVICE" permission is also known for developers as .  Example of such apps: , . My local hackerspace has a CNC machine.  I can give them my Gerbers and they can print out the PCB.  The machine does not plate VIAs.  I need to do this after the CNC machine is finished.  What is the best process and materials to use? Why the CMB has not been dispersed so far? Imagine you have a box of black body radiation. What happens if you open the box for a long time? It becomes dispersed and no radiation remains in the box.   Now, apply this example to the Cosmic Microwave Background radiation. The CMB has been produced about 380,000 years after the Big Bang. Giving that the space is flat as many observations suggest, that radiation has been produced in a universe with no boundaries.   Now, my question is this: in these conditions, why that radiation has not been dispersed completely so far? It is true that the radiation has been produced everywhere in the space but giving that the space is infinite, why has not it been dispersed do far?   Calculations in the standard textbooks are done in such a way as if the CMB has been within a physical box, however expanding with the universal expansion. But, this is not the actual situation. The CMB has not been and is not enclosed by walls of a box, so it must have completely dispersed so far. What has prevented this to happen?

The current version of iOS on the phone is 8.1.3 and yesterday I wanted to update to iOS 8.2.  The download went through without any problem but while installing, it gave the error:     Unable to Install Update   An error occurred installing iOS 8.2   Tried installing after switching Off and ON and also tried Hard Reset (Holding Home button and On/off switch).  Same error displays every time.  Also the Touch ID has stopped working and I find that the Settings - Touch ID &amp; Passcode - iPhone Unlock is OFF.  When I try to switch it ON, the system displays the error     Failed   Unable to complete Touch ID setup. Please go back and try again.   Is anyone facing this problem?  I live in India.
