I am pretty sure I saw this already on travel SE, but can't find it now. What are my navigation options with Android phone in an area without data connection? (I am in Northumberland)  EDIT: To clarify, I am looking for a turn-by-turn navigation system (mainly for driving). The suggested question is mainly about actual maps without this feature.
I don't need a recommendation or a list but my knowledge of GPS and "navi"s and the differences between them is an utter mystery to me.  But often I'm lost in backstreets in random countries where access to something like a live Google Maps would be awesome. I absolutely cannot afford a smartphone with worldwide roaming though.  Can GPS's do what I want or am I barking up the wrong tree? If they can is it only high end ones than can?
$_POST empty on utf-8 characters Let's say I'm trying to answer a lot of questions just to up my reputation (even if I generally don't know what I'm talking about).  Then, whenever I get downvoted, I just delete my answer so that nobody sees that I've posted stupid answers, and so I don't lose reputation points.   Is this frowned upon? Do I lose reputation points on downvoted answers if I delete them? Non in front of hyphenated adjective If one wishes to add "non" in front of a hyphenated adjective, should one add a hyphen after "non?"

Why am I getting black photos when I use the Manual feature on my DSLR? I noticed that Synonymizer is only a bronze badge. Yet in order to obtain this badge you need to have 2500 reputation or more to even create tag synonyms. Then, on top of that you also need to be able to find a tag synonym.  Only 514 of these have been awarded... This makes the BRONZE badge Synonymizer rarer to have than most the gold medal badges. So my question is, why is this a bronze badge? A term for words that change pronunciation with part of speech I have used the package nomencl. In my code I have incorporated the \nomenclature as well. But when I compile, it is not showing me any results.

Can someone help me with this? How are pronouns resolved? Are pronouns in English resolved syntactically or semantically? Do they always refer to the closest matching noun?  A  has these examples:        We gave the bananas to the monkeys because they were hungry.   We gave the bananas to the monkeys because they were ripe.   We gave the bananas to the monkeys because they were here.       My understanding was that pronouns are resolved syntactically, and so sentence 2 is semantically incorrect (unless the author really meant that the monkeys were ripe) and sentence 3 is not ambiguous. Is this wrong?  Citations and references are most welcome. Given 4 integers, $a, b, c, d > 0$, does $\frac{a}{b} < \frac{c}{d}$ imply $\frac{a}{b} < \frac{a+c}{b+d} < \frac{c}{d}$? Why is it sensical for a proposition with a false antecedent to validate to true? In propositional logic, the statement "If pigs can fly, then elephants can lay eggs." validates to true because the antecedent validates to false.  In other words, given $a \rightarrow b$, if a is false, the entire statement is true. Why?  Just because the antecendent is false doesn't mean that another fact depends on it, right? DNS settings on managed switches in LAN We have a Windows 2008 server that is connected to a managed switch with about 15 Cat5e connections and three fiber branches that go to different parts of campus. At each of these parts there is another managed switch that branches out to the LAN. Our cable Internet comes into one of these locations, goes through the supplied modem and into a Sonicwall.  Question: Under DNS settings on all the switches, should I list the LAN Server IP and/or just the Gateway IP (Sonicwall)? How to change the forgotten root password? I forgot my root password...actually I think I know what it is because it is the same password I have for pretty much everything but in the Terminal in tell me "Sorry, try again." Is there a way to reset the password? If so how?

I'm not so concerned with browser security issues. etc. as the implementation would be for . But is it possible? I'm trying to make airsoft chronograph/chronometer (a device that measures airsoft bullet speed). The idea is to measure time in which bullet is traveling from point A to point B, and then I can calculate bullet speed. Bullet is shot into plastic pipe with diameter of 32mm. I've tried to put on one side IR LED and on the other side phototransistor (BPW 40), both at the start and end of the tube. Something like this:  Blue circles are phototransistors, red circles are IR LEDs and white circles are airsoft bullets. When bullet passes through area where bullet 2  is drawn (just in between IR LED and phototransistor), everyting works perfectly. But when the bullet passes where bullets 1 and 3 are drawn, it isn't detected. That is expected, but unwanted behavior. So my question is: how can I detect bullets regardlessly of it's position ? I've thought about putting IR LEDs and phototransistors around the pipe (not only in one place), like this:  but this solution isn't cheapest: 5 IR LEDs + 5 BPW 40 = cca $12 times 2 (because I need it on both sides of the pipe) = $24. Is there any cheaper solution ? Is BPW 40 good choice for phototransistor ? I don't know which IR LEDs I'm using (and salesman in the store also doesn't know - he told me these are generic ones for remote controllers, like TV or DVD controller). Diameter of the pipe is 32mm and it will be long about 14cm (sensors will be 10cm apart). Diameter of airsoft bullet is 6mm. EDIT: I'll go for my second idea. I just have one more question: is it better to arrange IR emitters and photo transistors this way:  or this way:  Thanks !! showing that a group of order 45 is abelian
