Period before or after quotation mark? If there is a quote at the end of a sentence, does the period of the quote go before or after the end quotation mark? And if the quote is ended by a question mark does it replace the period that would be at the end of the main sentence?
When should end punctuation go inside quotes? I have been/am being taught that end punctuation should always go inside quotes. For example, you are supposed to write:     Marvin thought it was "awful."   The problem is I do not see how does this make sense. Intuitively, I always wrote:     Marvin thought it was "awful".   as that makes more logical sense — you want a quote to be an exact replication of what somebody else said, so why should you add punctuation inside?  I always thought it made more sense to not touch the quote and add anything after or before if it must be added.  So, why should I put end punctuation inside quotes?
Rendering an animation the way 3D view looks How to install h.264 decoder? I tried playing videos in movie player but only the audio could be heard. I tried playing the video with dragon player but here also only the audio could be heard.  A message box appeared showing the following message:     Python (v2.7) requires to install plugins to play media files of the following type: H.264 decoder   I tried installing the plugin but it couldn't be installed. It isn't available in the software center too. How can I get this plugin? How can one show there is no holomorphic function $f$ on the open unit disc $\mathbb{D}$ such that it extends continuously to $\frac{1}{z}$ on $\partial\mathbb{D}$? I mean $f$ takes value $\frac{1}{z}$ when $|z|=1$ and continuous here.  Thank you. Determining a matrix from its characteristic polynomial Possible Duplicate:             Well, I remembered this after having Algebra II a year ago, is it possible that this is a valid proof that $1 = -1$?  $$ 1 = \sqrt{1} = \sqrt{-1\cdot-1} = \sqrt{-1} \cdot \sqrt{-1} = i \cdot i = i^2 = -1 $$  $$ \therefore 1 = -1 $$  So is this actually fully valid? Or can it be disproved? I often run into this issue. I'm creating a file in Photoshop with masked layers etc. I want to make the final output available for some mock-ups in Illustrator, so I rasterize the layers and marquee select the entire area, copy and move to Illustrator.  Pasting the area in Illustrator flattens all transparencies, which is quite annoying. I'm left with my object and a flat white background.  Is there a reason for this? What is the command to truncate a SQL Server log file? I need to empty an LDF file before sending to a colleague.  How do I force SQL Server to truncate the log? Why can I only change my Stack Overflow name once every 30 days? I have a  on Stack Overflow. I recently decided to change the name on my profile. I did this, but I made a spelling mistake! I wrote "Kryton" instead of "Kryten"! When I tried to fix this, a message came back saying that I can only change my profile name every 30 days. Why? Is there any way I can fix my profile name? Prove that Gauss map on M is surjective Complete residue system proof I was given a proof of this in class, but it does not make sense to me, can someone provide a better proof, or explain the one I have provided, thanks.  Suppose $\gcd(a,n) = 1$, where $a$ and $n$ are natural numbers. Prove that $0$, $a$, $2a$, $3a,\ldots, (n-1)a$, is complete residue system modulo $n$.  Proof given in class:  \begin{align*} ka &amp;\equiv ra \pmod{n}\\ &amp;\Rightarrow  k \equiv r \pmod{n}\\ &amp;\Rightarrow  \text{$k-r$ divides $n$}\\ &amp;\Rightarrow \text{$k=r$ because $0\leq k\lt n$, $0\leq r\lt n$} \end{align*} Is it possible to do a SELECT statement with a predetermined order, ie. selecting IDs 7,2,5,9 and 8 and returning them in that order, based on nothing more than the ID field?  Both these statements return them in the same order:   SELECT id FROM table WHERE id in (7,2,5,9,8)    SELECT id FROM table WHERE id in (8,2,5,9,7) How to check if $\sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac 1{n!}$ is converging or diverging by direct comparison test? $$\sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac 1{n!}$$   I think we may compare it with $\frac{1}{n^n}$, and say that $\frac{1}{n!}&gt;\frac{1}{n^n}$. But I am not sure of the convergence or divergence of $\frac{1}{n^n}$ itself, so this turns out to be useless.  What other way is there?

How do I recover my password in Pokemon Go? iCloud Disassociation for a Mac Computer I had a Mid-2012 MacBook Pro that recently stopped booting. I narrowed this down based on troubleshooting of the boot device to likely the SATA/hard drive connector/cable no longer working for whatever reason.  I have decided to sell the system. I'd like to know if I remove the hard drive (or in this case, an after-market SSD I've installed) from the system, will there be any other data (i.e. iCloud data) stored on the system on any other chip that I can reset in any way? I plan to reset the SMC/NVRAM before I sell the system off of to someone else.  Additionally, if I remove the hard drive, is the system still associated to iCloud (specifically Find My Mac) or any other service? If so, how do I disassociate it? The system will no longer boot even if I put in my boot device.  Thanks! If $\sin(a)\sin(b)\sin(c)+\cos(a)\cos(b)=1$ then find the value of $\sin(c)$ Chrome phishing warning on main RX 590 IN Blender and Cycles Render I don't know why, but I cant render anything in CUDA and OptiX but OpenCL work fine. I cant use Cycles render because it's very laggy. I have newest  version of Blender and an RX 590 Red Dragon 8gb. Why does that happen?  How can I turn on my gpu? "log in to" or "log into" or "login to" When writing an instruction about connecting to a computer using ssh, telnet, etc., I'm not sure what spacing to use in this familiar spoken phrase:   "Log in to host.com" "Log into host.com" "Login to host.com"   Maybe this is entirely subjective or the realm of industry jargon, but I couldn't think of anywhere else to ask.  Any insight?
