What is the English word for husband of the daughter of my brother? What is the appropriate word for husband of the daughter of my brother?  That is, son-in-law of one's brother.
Paucity of words for relationships Please refer the following questions asked elsewhere on this site:       I am a native Hindi speaker; Hindi has a plethora of terms referring to relationships. To take a trivial example, the term uncle may refer to father's elder brother, father's younger brother, mother's brothers, father's sister's husband, mother's sister's husband, all of which have specific addresses in Hindi.  I discussed the same with one of my teachers. She had the opinion that the development of language mirrors the cultural moorings of the society that uses the language. Now, since all of the above relationships have distinct status and reverence in the Hindi speaking society, that calls for different addresses. That may well not be the case in English speaking societies.  Is that correct? What other linguistic reasons may account for such a dearth of vocabulary in English in this area?
Equidistant points across Bezier curves Ch.3 #7. Prove that the convergence of $\sum a_n$ implies the convergence of $$\sum \frac{\sqrt{a_n}}{n},$$ if $a_n \geq 0$.      My attempt. If $\sum a_n$ is convergent, then by the root test, $\lim_{n \rightarrow \infty} sup \sqrt[n]{|a_n|} &lt; 1$. This means $|a_n|^{1/n} &lt; 1$. Because $a_n \geq 0$, this means $a_n ^{1/n} &lt; 1$. Now apply the root test to $\sum \frac{\sqrt{a_n}}{n}$ by considering $$\lim_{n \to \infty} sup \sqrt[n]{|\frac{\sqrt{a_n}}{n}|}.$$ $$\sqrt[n]{|\frac{\sqrt{a_n}}{n}|} = \frac{\sqrt{{a_n}^{\frac{1}{n}}}}{\sqrt[n]n}.$$ Because  $a_n ^{1/n} &lt; 1$, certainly the numerator on the left-hand side of the equation above is $&lt;1$. And because $n$ tends to $\infty$, and $n &gt; 1 \rightarrow \sqrt[n]n &gt; 1,$ the denominator is $&gt;1$. Therefore the limit is $&lt;1$ and the root test implies that $\sum \frac{\sqrt{a_n}}{n}$ converges.     If there are any errors in my proof, I think they come from 1) my assumption of the converse of the root test theorem and 2) my misunderstanding of $\lim_{n\to\infty} sup$. Thanks in advance for your help. Even though I have the latest Adobe Flash player 11.2 for Linux in Firefox -   - a particular online flash game still requests that I update to the latest flash player.  I've tried this online game on my laptop (Windows 8 with Flash Player 11.8) and it has no problems.  Is there a way to trick Ubuntu or this game into thinking Flash Player 11.8 is "installed"? We know that the maximum level a dweller can train to on any SPECIAL skill is 10, however this does not consider bonuses given from their outfit.    Is there any additional benefit for going over 10? For example, a dweller with an Intelligence skill of 10 wearing a lab coat that boosts Intelligence by 3?   If it is a hard cap, would it be more useful to use outfits that raise a secondary characteristic instead? How exactly is Arda supposed to be an ancient Earth? As most Tolkien fans know, Arda (Tolkien's world) is supposed to be Earth in its past, and all its stories are supposed to have happened long ago on this very same planet. Of course, this is fiction, so this is not supposed to be actually true.  But, if one wanted to roll with it... how could it possibly make sense from a geographical standpoint? All maps of Middle Earth (before or after the destruction of Beleriand and Numenor) just don't match anything on Earth, even when considering continental drift.  Of course, one could simply say "the Valar reshaped it (again)", but not only this is a bit unsatisfactory, it also doesn't make much sense in context, as Valar are well known for not wanting to meddle with Arda unless absolutely needed, and even then, as little as possible.    Update:  Hey, please calm down, guys. Mine was not a rant at all. And I know perfectly well this is fiction (and I've stated it plainly). The sense of my question was: "If one wanted to follow this line of thought and assume Arda should be related to Earth as Tolkien said, then how could this relationship be explained?". Considering this code, can I be absolutely sure that the finally block always executes, no matter what something() is?  try {       something();       return success;   }   catch (Exception e) {        return failure;   }   finally {       System.out.println("I don't know if this will get printed out"); } Let $ D = 2^\mathbb{N} $, i.e., D is the set of all sets of natural numbers.   What's the meaning of this definition? Intuitively, I would suggest that $ D = \{1,2,4,...\} $ but the explanation "set of all sets" leads me to the guess that this is wrong. Prove that if 51 positive integers between 1 and 100 are chosen, then one of them must divide another. Given $51$ integers $a_1, a_2, \ldots, a_{51}$ satisfying $1 \leq a_i \leq 100$. Prove that there exist $i$ and $j$ such that $a_i \mid a_j$.   I'm a little unsure how to approach this problem. Thanks for any help. I have just updated MiKTeX and have found that pstricks now appears to cause a problem. The error message I'm getting is     ("C:\Program Files\MiKTeX 2.9\tex\generic\pstricks\pstricks.tex"      ! Undefined control sequence.      l.31 \if@check@engine   Not sure what's happening here. If I stop pstricks from being loaded things work ok.  Is there a known problem with the latest pstricks? A finite sum involving the binomial coefficients and the harmonic numbers Wikipedia has a proof of the identity $$ H_{n} =\sum_{k=1}^{n} (-1)^{k-1} \binom{n}{k} \frac{1}{k}$$    Curiously, there is also the identity  $$ \frac{1}{n} = \sum_{k=1}^{n} (-1)^{k-1} \binom{n}{k} H_{k} $$  Can the second identity be derived from the first one? Taking Seats on a Plane I'm looking for a quick start or template, or something, to get a web site's basic layout done quickly and looking fairly professional, and then let me do the coding.  I don't want a CMS, as this is for a highly customised reporting application, but I need something like frame header and two columns and frame footer.  I can design the pretty reports for the wide right hand column myself, as the left hand column menu. For primes $p≡3\pmod 4$, prove that $[(p−1)/2]!≡±1\pmod p$. I know to use Wilson's Theorem and that each element in the second half is congruent to the negative of the first half, but I'm not sure how to construct a proof for it. How we differentiate between flash memory and SD card memory? OSX (Yosemite) Make 2 sided printing the default for *all* applications I'd like to make double-sided printing the default for all applications.  This  tells how to set it for one application, but by experimentation it only affects that application, not others.  I Googled, looked in the system prefs, looked on this site - no luck.  Is there a setting somewhere? Right place to ask a "discussion" question (I'm setting up a blog, what should....) Can I see why a package is installed? For a specific package, can I find out why it is installed?  So, can I see or it's manually installed, or that it is installed as a dependency of another package? Or that it is installed as part of the distro? I have problem with CRS Bosnia and Herzegovina?  MGI 1901 / Balkans zone 6  EPSG:3908 MGI 31276 / Balkans zone 6  EPSG:31276  Which of these two is OK? When I open google sattelite image with openlayers plugin, MGI 1901 match an image, when I change to MGI 31276 vector layer mismatch about 300m. When I import my layers to Global Mapper, datum of vector is "MGI Austria"   I need this projection: Plot points:   I think the man was one-armed or had one damaged/withered arm. He is an artist when we meet him. He's picked up by aliens to represent earth in a galactic armada. Put in a ship with other aliens only there so a representative of their species can be said to be present - but not expected to actually contribute much to the coming fight. Fight is to protect against invaders from another galaxy. Somehow or other, their ship and crew become integral to winning the war. In Pokémon Sun and Moon, when you've finished the game you can switch day and night by going though the wormhole at the altar where you've caught the box legendary. Are there any more differences when going through the wormhole, excluding the day or night difference? For example, the altar of the sunne and altar of the moone switch when going through the portal.
