I know there is a popular question already answered -  - but I am still unclear on some of the rules applying to my specific case, due to the fact that the UK is a 'sort of in the Schengen area but not so' and also some other exceptions arising from the US visa.  I am a Thai passport holder with a Work Permit (Tier 2) in the UK and a B1/B2 visa to the US. I'm flying to the US via Dublin outgoing, then via Zurich and Dublin return. The aforementioned question implies that I'll need a visa for the intra-Schengen transfer on my return, but could I cut the ZUR-DUB leg of the journey and book a ZUR-LHR flight in the Zurich transfer area, or would this be outside the passport check area?   Would I need to carry on all luggage due to the baggage carousel being outside the border control stations?
My parents are Indian Citizens. They hold a valid B2 Tourist Visa to USA. I'm planning to book a flight with Hyderabad (India) - Abu Dhabi (UAE) - Dublin (Ireland) - USA. The leg from Hyderabad to Dublin is operated by Etihad and I know there is no problem hopping at Abu Dhabi. The leg from Dublin to US is operated by Aer Lingus. I called Aer Lingus customer care agent told me a transit visa is required to land in Dublin. She did not care to ask for the citizenship of traveller or about the USA visa. I went through Irish immigration website - (), India is not in list of countries that require transit visa. I'm now confused. Can some one confirm if they traveled with the same itinerary recently  Update: I called Aer Lingus again. Another agent told as long as I don't exit the airport, a transit visa is not required. I think these people don't really understand trouble we go through when boarding is denied. I put this question because I read a person was denied boarding earlier - . His case mentions about denied because of different day. But I see his transit time is 12 hours only.
How to replace all occurrences of a string in JavaScript? Design Review: 3.3V Logic to 12V Logic (Uni-directional and Bi-directional) What would you see if you have 2 huge mirrors (you cant look over it or next to it)  You place them with the reflecting side to each other and you look in the mirror from behind one mirror (one way mirror = 1 side glass 1 side mirror, like in a movie when cops are questioning a suspect.)  The mirror would reflect each other endless.  The example could be preformed with a see trough mirror (1 side mirror other side glass) but I don't have one, also I don't have huge mirrors.    Would it make a diffrence if you place a light source and if you dont have a light source?  My guess is that you would always see black because there is nothing to mirror.  Edit important:   There is nothing in the room to reflect on, so it only reflects the mirror, thats what i ment.

Find which date is missing in the results Custom toolbar location XP A few years ago Umber Ferrule wrote that the toolbars in the taskbar are defined in   HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Streams.   This looks very plausible but cannot be the entire story.  Deleting this key will in no way affect the taskbar and on rebooting the system the key magically reappears.  Why do I want to know?  Simple.  I would like to export the key to a reg. file as a convenient backup. Access POST values in Symfony2 request object Say I had a Core i7 Laptop with 16GB of RAM and a 750gb drive.  Is there a mechanism where I can partition the HD into a Linux, Windows, OS X, Shared Data, Hypervisor setup where I boot a small hypervisor. I can start/stop a linux, Windows and OS X virtual machine and interact with them all from the hypervisor?   Code, Test, etc?  is this a type 1 Hypervisor?  I suppose I could run a small linux install and VmWare but could VmWare read the virtual machines from a physical hard disk partition versus a file based setup (.vmdk files)? What is the value of $p^2q + q^2r + r^2p$ for the given cubic equation? If p,q,r are the real roots of the equation $x^3-6x^2+3x+1=0$ then find the value of $p^2q + q^2r + r^2p$?  My Attempt: I tried $(p+q+r)(pq+qr+rp)$ but couldn't really figure out what to do with the extra terms. The roots are also not trivial to find. Any help would be appreciated. Photons have no mass but they can push things, as evidenced by .   Can photons push the source which is emitting them? If yes, will a more intense flashlight accelerate me more? Does the wavelength of the light matter? Is this practical for space propulsion? Doesn't it defy the law of momentum conservation?  Note: As John Rennie mentioned, all in all the wavelength doesn't matter, but for a more accurate answer regarding that, see the comments in  .  Related Wikipedia articles: , K-Means clustering for mixed numeric and categorical data My data set contains a number of numeric attributes and one categorical. Say, NumericAttr1, NumericAttr2, ..., NumericAttrN, CategoricalAttr, where CategoricalAttr takes one of three possible values: CategoricalAttrValue1, CategoricalAttrValue2 or CategoricalAttrValue3. I'm using default . It works with numeric data only. So my question: is it correct to split the categorical attribute CategoricalAttr into three numeric (binary) variables, like IsCategoricalAttrValue1, IsCategoricalAttrValue2, IsCategoricalAttrValue3 ?
