I have an Iranian passport and my round trip flight from San Francisco (SFO) to Istanbul (IST) has a stop in Amsterdam, The Netherlands for eight hours.   Do I need a transit visa?  How is the application process and how long it generally takes to get a transit visa?  Do I need to get a separate transit visa for the return flight?
I found many related questions on this site but I am still not sure about the rules. How can I decide if I need a visa to transit?

$M + N$ and $M \cap N$ are finitely generated $A$-modules implies $M$ and $N$ finitely generated using exact sequences Let $0 \to M_1 \to M \to M_2 \to 0$ be an exact sequence of $A$-modules.  i) Prove: If $M_1$ and $M_2$ are finitely generated, then $M$ is too.  ii) Let $M$ and $N$ be sub-modules of an $A$-module $L$. Assume that $M+N$ and $M\cap N$  are finitely generated $A$-modules. Prove that $M$ and $N$ are finitely generated $A$-modules.  If have proved the first part, but i don't see how to do the second part. I tried to use the first part, so to find an exact sequence with $M$ in the middle and finitely generated modules in place of $M_1$ and $M_2$, but I can't find a surjective map $M \to P$ (for some f.g. $A$-module) in the sequence:  $$0 \to M\cap N \to M \to P \to 0$$  any hints/help would be appreciated.

Why do cars gain lift while going at a high speed? I've been researching the physics involved with spoilers and I've just been turning up the same information about spoilers giving the back wheels of a car more traction by acting as an up side down airfoil.   So my question is, what exactly causes the car to apparently gain lift while moving quickly, so as to merit the use of a spoiler, and is this entirely due to the aerodynamics of the vehicle in question?   Edit: Clarity of question. Upgrade to version newer than repositories I have  about how to upgrade ghostscript to a version that is available on 15.04 but not on 14.04LTS (which I have). On this site there are numerous almost identical question regarding different packages, a few examples include:         So I thought it would be very useful in general to know: is there  a general, automated way to upgrade a package, including all its dependencies, to a version that is newer than Ubuntu's repos? Is this more easily done if the newer version exists in more recent Ubuntu releases? Significance of the second focus in elliptical orbits 1.In classical mechanics, using Newton's laws, the ellipticity of orbits is derived. It is also said that the center of mass is at one of the foci.   2.Each body will orbit the center of the mass of the system.  My question is : Are the assumptions in 1 and 2 correct?   Follow up question : Assuming the distance from the centre of the mass to each body remains the same, do we have two bodies orbiting the centre of the mass of the system in an elliptical or circular orbit?   Finally : With elliptical orbits, if the heavier mass is supposed to be in one of the foci, if there is any significance to second focus, what is it? Is it a Lagrange point by any chance or does it have some other mathematical property? Cannot sort on numeric field with SOQL in Custom Metadata Cannot sort on a soql-request in a custom meta data type. When i perform SELECT .. FROM x__mdt WHERE ... ORDER BY x.

Do local flows of left-invariant vector fields satisfy $\Phi_X^t\circ L_x=L_x\circ \Phi_X^t$? Given $G$ a lie group and $X$ a left-invariant vector field. Let $\Phi_X^t$ be the local flow of $X$. Why can we conclude that $\Phi_X^t \circ L_x=L_x \circ \Phi_X^t$? Thanks! How does a wheelie work? So I've been trying to create a mathematical model for an electric motorcycle and began to wonder about the maximum possible torque that could be supplied to the rear driven wheel without having the bike begin to lift up on one wheel.  I found ways to calculate this value online; however, the basic concept as to how the bike actually lifts escapes me.    My problem started when I began to think about what axis the bike will rotate about when it is doing the wheelie.  My first intuition was that the frame and front wheel, together, rotate about the rear axle.  But when I drew a free body diagram of the frame/front wheel system just at liftoff (see below) I made note that the only forces acting about the rear axle, point O, is the force of weight.  This means that an increase in applied torque and subsequently, the applied force Fa, should not effect the rotation about the rear axle.  I know that the applied force on the back wheel is indeed correlated with the propensity for a bike to wheelie, so I considered that the axis of rotation I was choosing was wrong.  If we take the free body diagram above and sum the moments about the center of mass, we would find that an increased applied force would in fact cause the solid body to rotate.  The problem with this understanding is that during rotation, the center of mass of the drawn system should actually rises relative to the surface the bike is moving across.  If the bike were to be truly rotating about its center of mass, then the back wheel would begin to dip below the surface of the road like you might see in a glitchy video game.    So I suspect that the bike is in fact rotating about the back axle, but I don't understand why, please help!  edit: I added the external torque from the back wheel to the frame, which would allow the bike to rotate about the back axle  edit 2:  I suppose that the torque acting on the frame via the engine should not effect the rotation as the movement of a motorcycle can be perfectly replicated by applying a force at the back axle.  A third possible axis of rotation might be the lowest point of the back wheel. How to make a bib entry appear also in the main document I'm looking for the noun form of "person with intermediate skill". For example, in the context of a particular activity, "person with no skill" might be designated a novice, and "person with much skill" might be designated an expert. However I know of no such word in between these two extremes.   My only thought is amateur, which has a distinct meaning from describing level of skill, although skill level can often be inferred. I'm looking for a better solution.  EDIT: due to the attention this question has received, I'll try to offer some clarification in order to reduce repeat questions.   "Journeyman" would certainly not work. I am a software developer by profession. However the word I'm looking for should hopefully be profession-agnostic. I am trying to designate the skill level of the person that some learning material might be appropriate for. The word that I'm looking for follows the preposition "for".   For Beginners  For [word for intermediate-skilled person] For Experts  Sorry, but even after all the great answers, I'm still learning towards "amateur" even though it is technically incorrect. Also, the word should not be so esoteric that only people with English degrees know what it means. Keep the ideas coming! My images are blurry! Why isn't WPF's SnapsToDevicePixels working? I'm using some Images in my WPF applcation.  XAML:  &lt;Image Name="ImageOrderedList"        Source="images/OrderedList.png"        ToolTip="Ordered List"        Margin="0,0,5,5"        Width="20"        Height="20"        SnapsToDevicePixels="True"        MouseUp="Image_MouseUp"        MouseEnter="Image_MouseEnter"        MouseLeave="Image_MouseLeave" /&gt;   But, they appear fuzzy.  Why doesn't that SnapsToDevicePixels="True" line prevent this problem? I would like to install Ubuntu alongside Windows 7 on a HP G62 Notebook. Although I have installed  Ubuntu in a dual-boot many times before, I found out that this model has already four partitions.    Partitions:   SYSTEM (NTFS, 199MB, used 66.59MB) Partition without any tag: NTFS (579GM, used 129GB)  RECOVERY (NTFS 16.74 GB, used 2.42GB)  HP_TOOLS (FAT32, 103.34 MB, used 13.23MB)   Since I am not an expert with partitions I would like to get advice on how to do this.  My first idea is this one:   Free some space from /dev/sda2 (I don't know if could also free some other space) delete the HP_Tools partition (I have already created a backup) create an extended partition with the free space in #1 containing three parititions: swap (1gb); / (EXT4, 30GB);  /home (EXT4, 120GB)   Another option is to use wubi instead.  What do you think? Is there any other way to achieve this?  PS: I really think this HP policy of using 4 partitions is not a coincidence  PS: I tried using gparted from the live CD and I got a warning message saying that if I freed some space from /dev/sda2 I could create serious issues in the system Which English dialects have 2nd person plural? "Y'all" is the famous southern US form of the 2nd person plural.  The Brooklyn / Italian-American "youse" might be another.  While the existence and usage of "y'all" has been addressed somewhat thoroughly here:  , I've found nothing else on EL&amp;U regarding 2nd person plural forms in other English dialects.  I know there was a dual form in Old English () does that survive in any of the dialects in the Danelaw?  Do Scots / Gaelic / Welsh / Australian / other dialects retain any type of 2nd person plural / dual in modern usage?
