I am very confused by getting different results from st_expand (srid 4326). I want to do a search within a bounding box, therefore I pass a point and I'd like to provide distance in meters in order to see if I will get a macht.  So this  query is returning a result:  select "geo_name_cities".* FROM "geo_name_cities" WHERE (name like '%Ischgl%' AND      ST_Expand(ST_GeomFromText('POINT (10.3298112 46.9809071)', 4326),5000) &amp;&amp; lonlat)  my assumption here. Make a bounding box of 5000 meters around the point.  Now I increase to 6000m   select "geo_name_cities".* FROM "geo_name_cities" WHERE (name like '%Ischgl%' AND ST_Expand(ST_GeomFromText('POINT (10.3298112 46.9809071)', 4326),6000) &amp;&amp; lonlat)   No result. Ok, I might assume that the place is not within this box, fine. BUT when I use 60000m I get a  result again ?????  select "geo_name_cities".* FROM "geo_name_cities" WHERE (name like '%Ischgl%' AND    ST_Expand(ST_GeomFromText('POINT (10.3298112 46.9809071)', 4326),60000) &amp;&amp; lonlat)  So I increased the distance steadily but the results are different, how does this come?
I used osm2pgsql to import data into my PostgreSQL database and it put gave me the following 4 tables, planet_osm_point, planet_osm_line, planet_osm_polygon and planet_osm_roads.   I have looked at the schema for osm2pgsql and inside the planet_osm_point table there is a column 'way' of type point. I tried to query it as an array like it says in the documentation here ():     It is possible to access the two component numbers of a point as   though the point were an array with indexes 0 and 1. For example, if   t.p is a point column then SELECT p[0] FROM t retrieves the X   coordinate and UPDATE t SET p[1] = ... changes the Y coordinate. In   the same way, a value of type box or lseg can be treated as an array   of two point values.   Anyone know the correct query the planet_osm tables from osm2pgsql based on long/lat? For example if I wanted to retrieve the information for Big Ben (London) I would query along the lines of:      SELECT * FROM planet_osm_point      WHERE ST_Y(ST_Transform(way, 4326)) = '-0.12'        AND ST_X(ST_Transform(way, 4326)) = '51.5';   There is no error message, it comes out with the table names, but no data is output either. (Its an empty table). What am I doing wrong here?  Perhaps it is too precise, i.e. there are no coordinates that match it exactly? Perhaps I need to try being more general, say 51 &lt; long &lt; 52 and -0.5 &lt; lat &lt; 0. Although this would throw back multiple results so would not be quite as accurate.

Some scenarios describing the fate of the matter vs  tug of war on the universe involve the acceleration of the universe increasing to the point that it ends up ripping apart even atoms. This is called the .  This makes no sense to me. It looks like all of these   (GR) models of the universe assume it has a uniform isotropic distribution of matter and energy. This works great at long scales, but it is also clearly wrong even at the length scale of the separation of galaxies.  The density of atomic nuclei remains the same even though the universe is expanding even as we speak. I don't think the "scale" in the  can be interpreted so literally. Or maybe said better, it's got to break down when the cosmological horizon distance gets to the scale where the isotropic assumption breaks down, right?  How can scientists be claiming that runaway expansion will rip apart atoms?

How do I change JPanel inside a JFrame on the fly? To put it simple, there's a simple java swing app that consists of JFrame with some components in it. One of the components is a JPanel that is meant to be replaced by another JPanel on user action.  So, what's the correct way of doing such a thing? I've tried  panel = new CustomJPanelWithComponentsOnIt(); parentFrameJPanelBelongsTo.pack();   but this won't work. What would you suggest?
