Using the Atlas plugin for qGIS how do I set the coverage so that it will only highlight the feature(s) I want but still show the surrounding features as grayed out areas?  This would have been easy if I don't need to work with several thousand features.  I am not asking just how to mask neighboring features. I am asking how to to make Atlas dynamically mask neighboring features of the POI.  The idea is similar to this map .
I have an area which is divided into several zones the borders of which I have defined as separate layers.  The layers are defined by sql queries on a postgis table of line segments joined with a table that says which segments are part of which zone boundaries.  What I want to do is produce a set of maps where each map is a zoom to layer extent for each zone and which has standard header, legend and scale (which will preferably vary with the zone but could be fixed across all maps).  My first attempt was to get a new composer for each map -- that worked but was rather tedious.  Next I tried producing one map and printing it and then deleting the map frame and going into qgis to zoom to the next layer extent and make the boundary visible then hopping back into the composer to load it in.  This worked more or less.  Map was fine, legend was OK because it was the same for all the maps and the zone name was easy to edit but the scale needed to be deleted and set up again for each map.  Next I looked at Atlas Generation.  The manual seems to assume that you know how it works and all you need is a reminder about the details (like so many software manuals ;)  It seems to assume that you have something that you are iterating over but I can't see how to make it work -- there is nothing to iterate over to get the layers.  Any suggestions welcome!!  :)  Russell
convergence to infinity of$ (2^n + 3^n)^{\frac{1}{n}}$ (as $n \to \infty$) Just checking. $2^n$ ($n \to \infty$) tends to $\infty$. + $3^n$ also ($n \to \infty$) tends to $\infty$  so the sum gets me $\infty$.  Now $(\infty)^{1/\infty}$ : $(\infty)^0 = 1$  I see no other way.  Theorem: $n^{\frac{1}{n}} = 1$ as $n \to \infty$.  Analogous:  $(2^n - 3^n)^\frac{1}{n}$ = $(\infty  - \infty)^0$ = 1 ???  Is it ok to suppose infinity on any integer $k^n$ as $n$ goes to infinity ? In my question  I asked about the definition and usage of the word "model", for which I was told the following definition:     A formula of propositional logic is true under an interpretation iff   the interpretation assigns the truth value T to that formula. If a   formula is true under an interpretation, then that interpretation is   called a model of that formula.   An interpetation satisfies a formula φ iff it is a model of the formula. Same for a set $\Gamma$ of formulas, if an interpretation satisfies all the formulas in $\Gamma$ then it is a model of $\Gamma$. Then if we say $\Gamma \vDash \varphi$ then $\varphi$ is a semantic consequence of $\Gamma$ / is satisfied in all "models" of $\Gamma$ (true whenever everything in $\Gamma$ is true).  This also matches the definitions for model as seen on the Wiki for  and .  All good so far. But when I get really confused when I see posts like  where they use "models" as a word meaning "satisfies all the axioms in a theory."  From Asaf's answer:     Models are structures, and structures are models. But when we say   "model" we mean that there is a particular theory which holds in the   structure, and when we say "structure" we are mainly interested in an   arbitrary interpretation of the language.   From Metin's answer:     A structure is a set with some interpretable symbols(constants,   relations and functions) within a fixed language. You do not ask for   more from a structure.      However...      A model (of a theory) is a structure which satisfies the axioms of the   theory. It makes more "structural sense"...   And then from one of Asaf's comments:     When I say "a model of 𝖹𝖥𝖢" they also know, immediately, that I am   talking about a model which satisfies all the axioms of 𝖹𝖥𝖢.   So I am unclear on which definition is correct or if this is the same word being used in two different ways or if this is "logical model" versus "semantic model" or something else entirely.  On the one hand we seem to have "model" meaning "any interpretation that satisfies a formula or set of formulas." On the other hand we have "model" meaning "Interpretation that satisfies all the axioms of a theory".  From the Wiki article on  we see also:     For a given theory in model theory, a structure is called a model, if   it satisfies the defining axioms of that theory.   So which is it exactly? Does "model" have a different meaning in propositional logic compared to model theory or first-order logic or set theory etc? "Available jobs to/for them" First of all, English is not my first language. I have a question, maybe a basic one, about this phrase:     The situation highlights the mismatch between some areas of training and available jobs to/for them.   Should it be "available jobs to them" or "available jobs for them"?  Sorry if the question is really basic. If $f(0)=0$ and $f'$ is increasing, then $\frac{f(x)}{x}$ is increasing. Given two ciphertexts $c_1 = enc(p_1)$ and $c_2= enc(p_2)$ using any additive homomorphic encryption scheme (or specifically Paillier).

How do I upgrade to a newer version of Ubuntu? What are the different ways I can use to upgrade Ubuntu from one release to another? cat file : prints prior to "user :/" prompt I am writing a client-side Swing application (graphical font designer) on Java 5. Recently, I am running into java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space error because I am not being conservative on memory usage. The user can open unlimited number of files, and the program keeps the opened objects in the memory. After a quick research I found  and others saying on Windows machine the JVM defaults max heap size as 64MB.  Given this situation, how should I deal with this constraint?  I could increase the max heap size using command line option to java, but that would require figuring out available RAM and writing some launching program or script. Besides, increasing to some finite max does not ultimately get rid of the issue.  I could rewrite some of my code to persist objects to file system frequently (using database is the same thing) to free up the memory. It could work, but it's probably a lot work too.  If you could point me to details of above ideas or some alternatives like automatic virtual memory, extending heap size dynamically, that will be great. I need a shapefile for India which is up-to-date to display the regional borders. By up-to-date (in 2014), I mean that it includes Telangana as a state. Many shapefiles that I downloaded do not have Telangana as a state as it was partitioned a month ago, it is displayed as part of Andhrapradesh.  So I need the latest shapefile. Let $n \in ℕ$. Show that the ring $ℤ/nℤ$ is a field if and only if $n$   is prime.   Let $n$ prime. I need to show that if $\bar{a} \neq 0$ then $∃\bar b: \bar{a} \cdot \bar{b} = \bar{1}$. Any hints for this ?  Suppose $ℤ/nℤ$ is a field. Therefore: for every $\bar{a} \neq 0$ $∃\bar b: \bar{a}\cdot \bar{b}=1$. How can I show that $n$ must be prime ? How to access phpMyAdmin after installation?

To what extent are child actors exposed to the violent aspects of the movie they perform in? Some movies feature child characters put in violent situations. This can range from crude language to extreme horror (e.g. torture, gore, etc.). As an example,  and its sequel has plenty of those scenes. It looks like a paradox that children can be actors in movies that are definitely not for children.  Do the directors usually try and avoid exposing the very young actors to the violence of such scenes, e.g. by clever dubbing and editing? Are there laws that require them to do so, just like there are ratings that prevent children from seeing some movies? List or IList Symbolic links error while creating Ubuntu UEFI bootable USB I have tried to create UEFI bootable USB drive within Ubuntu 14.10 (Startup disk creator didn't help nor I am interested in using it.). I have formated USB with FAT32 and GPT. So the only thing left to do would be just to copy all files from ISO to USB. That method worked when it comes to Linux Mint 17.1 and Clonezilla live CD, but when I tried to create bootable USB for Ubuntu 14.04 or Kubuntu 15.04 beta 1 there was an error copying files. Actually, on several occasions (4 or 5) pop-up window appeared.   After ignoring this errors, both Ubuntu and Kubuntu USB boot-up just fine, with no apparent problems in Live mode.   Can someone please elaborate what this symbolic links presents? Will this cause some problem when OS is installed? Can a new save withdraw from the pokemon bank? I've been considering restarting my save and replaying the story with access to the entire National Pokedex (Minus a few Event-only Pokemon I'm missing) from the start. But I would first like to confirm: Can I withdraw my stored Pokemon from the bank if my game is reset? It seems that the only contributing factor is that I end up signed in with the same Nintendo Network ID, so as long as my network ID remains the same, I can withdraw stored Pokemon regardless of what save-game or cartridge is in my system, correct?  While I'm reasonably confident it works the way I think it does, past experience (My Pokemon Ranch being tied to specific trainer IDs, and something about the dream world being tied to the game's wireless settings) has made me just cautious enough to ask before attempting.
