When to Use Closing Quotes I have noticed that BBC will frequently not use closing quotes when quoting long paragraphs of text, as an example it occurs twice in this article:   Here:     "One application we are working on is indoor navigation which means we   have sensors within the shoe that measure the acceleration of the   foot, the angular velocity - whether you're turning the foot or not -   and the magnetic field.   and here:     "Generated power scales with size, but if you want to be able to   reasonably integrate such a device within a shoe sole, you have to   work with strict constraints, like a small height and limited length   of the device.   Is this correct? This is not just an editor's oversight, they do it frequently.  Why do they omit the closing quote, is it because the end of the paragraph implies the end of the quote?
How should I use quotation marks in sections of multiline dialogue? If I want to introduce a “pause” between lines of dialogue from the same person by inserting a spacing line, how should I use the quotation marks correctly to indicate continued dialogue? I really don’t want to write it in a gossipy “he said, she said” way!  I have noticed that closing quotations aren’t always placed on the end of a line.  What are the rules?
Showing that the orthogonal projection in a Hilbert space is compact iff the subspace is finite dimensional Suppose that we have a Hilbert Space $H$ and $M$ is a closed subspace of $H$. Let $T\colon H\rightarrow M$ be the orthogonal projection onto $M$.   I have to show that $T$ is compact iff $M$ is finite dimensional.  So if we assume that $M$ is finite dimensional then $\overline{T(B(0,1))}$ is a closed bounded set in a finite dim vector normed space and so it is compact. Which gives that $T$ is compact.  But I am unsure how to prove that if $T$ is compact then $M$ is finite dimensional?  Thanks for any help regexp in ksh for extensions tgz, tar.tgz I'm trying to get a regexp (in ksh) to identify files with only the following extensions: tgz, tar.gz, TGZ and TAR.GZ. I tried several but can't get them to work. I'm using this regexp to select only files files with those extensions to do some work with them:  if [ -f $myregexp ]; then    .....  fi python multiprocessing on windows, if __name__ == "__main__" I have a script that updates my desktop background every day with the NASA APOD. Since upgrading to 11.10, that script stopped working, presumably because I'm using gconftool-2 to actually update the desktop background. Is there a new way to do this under Unity? I want to achieve the exact same title page layout as the paper shown . For those that do not want to download the paper, the image of the title page is shown below:    The super-scripts indicating the authors doesn't have to be as shown in the example title page (e.g, a, b and c), other symbols are fine.  I am using the authblk package and know the general syntax such as:  \title{title of paper} \author[1]{author 1\thanks{details that goes into the footnote}} \author[1]{author 2\thanks{details that goes into the footnote}} \author[2]{author 3\thanks{details that goes into the footnote}} \affil[1]{university 1} \affil[2]{university 2} \renewcommand\Authands{ and } \maketitle  \begin{abstract} abstract goes here \end{abstract}   But I am not sure how to achieve the example title page shown. Any help would be appreciated! I flashed new firmware and before doing so backed up apps and data with Titanium Backup. How do I restore? I have the folder on my PC which contains two .gz files and a properties file. Complex differential equation How do I solve $$x'=e^{it}\overline{x}?$$  This is a complex differential equation, but I don't see how to solve it.  Edit: the original ODE is given by $$(x', y')=\begin{pmatrix}\cos t&amp; \sin t\\ \sin t&amp;-\cos t\end{pmatrix}(x,y)$$ I want to show that solutions of this ODE do not remain bounded for all $t$, and the idea was to solve the complex equation. Questions on "All Horse are the Same Color" Proof by Complete Induction I'm bugged by the following that's summarized on p. 109 of .     False theorem: All horses are the same color.      Proof by induction:      $\fbox{$P(n)$ is the statement: In every set of horses of size $n$, all $n$ horses are the same color.}$   $\fbox{Base Case or $P(1)$:}$ One horse is the same color as itself. This is true by inspection.   $\fbox{Induction Step:}$ Assume $P(k)$ for some $k \geq 1$.   $\fbox{Proof of $P(k + 1) :$}$   Since $\{H_1, H_2, ... , H_n\}$ is a set of $n$ horses, the induction hypothesis applies to this set. Thus, all the horses in this set are the same color.   Since $\{H_2, H_3, ... , H_{n+1}\}$ is also a set of $n$ horses, the induction step likewise holds for this set. Thus, all the horses in this set are the same color too.         Therefore, all $n +1$ horses in $\{H_1, H_2, H_3, ... , H_n , H_{n+1}\}$ are the same color. QED.   The issue the instructor was trying to point out is clearly valid. For the case $n = 1$, there is only ${H_1}$. So this case says nothing about possible overlapping elements of each set of $(n + 1)$, for instance $H_2$ in the above proof.    But it was proposed in the class discussion that this was the only problem. Had you been able to prove $P(2)$ true, then a proof of the above format would have been fine.    My interpretation is that yes, you could prove all horses are the same color, if you can prove that any set of two horses will be the same color. But this format would not work.  Why not? The problem I see is that the above proof is for the existence of at least one particular pair of sets of horses of sizes $n$ and $n + 1$, such that in each set, all horses are the same color.  Particularly when the set of size $n$ is a subset of the set of size $n + 1$.  In order to prove the induction step, don't you need to prove that sets of sizes $n$ and $n + 1$, do not necessarily contain the same, overlapping elements?  You could prove that any horse can be added to a set of 2 horses.  Take the last two, and they must be the same color, and so on.  Wwhatever color the first two happen to be, all other horses must thus be the same color.    Am I misinterpreting the example, or am I making a logical error? Thanks in advance. Why does Worf want O'Brien to go to Minsk? I've just watched the last 20 minutes of an episode of Deep Space 9, and towards the end Worf is very insistent that O'Brien and his wife move to Minsk.

I have seen in American Sniper, Dead-7 and Carrie that when someone is killed, they are laying on the ground with blood leaking out of their back or somewhere else on the body.  The puddle continuously grows with few signs of slowing down. This is obviously not CGI because it is a real liquid (may not be real blood as that would spark an emergency in real life).   I have seen in American Sniper that when the protagonist kills yet another enemy, they are filmed hitting the ground and blood starts pooling around their body.  In Carrie: In the dance room where Carrie sets her powers loose and kills a lot of teenagers in the process, there are a few that hit the ground with blood pooling under their bodies. Sometimes they would be on their side with blood coming out.  In Dead 7: Kimono and the other six killed lots of zombies. Some of the six were killed in the process as well before they came to Apocalypta to kill her. They were filmed hitting the ground dead with blood pooling around them.  I am not sure how they film this as they are wearing thin shirts for these scenes, and not only that, but the characters also have blood (obviously fake) only just dripping out of the side of their mouths (an indicator they have a ruptured and wounded stomach or lung (in this case the blood would be pink and frothy).  What is the film technique that allows this to happen? How can I verify a Google authentication access token?  I need to somehow query Google and ask: Is [given access token] valid for the [example@example.com] Google account?  Short version: It's clear how an access token supplied through the  can be used to then request data from a range of Google services. It is not clear how to check if a given access token is valid for a given Google account. I'd like to know how.  Long version: I'm developing an API that uses token-based authentication. A token will be returned upon provision of a valid username+password or upon provision of a third-party token from any one of N verifiable services.  One of the third-party services will be Google, allowing a user to authenticate against my service using their Google account. This will later be extended to include Yahoo accounts, trusted OpenID providers and so on.  Schematic example of Google-based access:    The 'API' entity is under my full control. The 'public interface' entity is any web- or desktop-based app. Some public interfaces are under my control, others will not be and others still I may never even know about.  Therefore I cannot trust the token supplied to the API in step 3. This will be supplied along with the corresponding Google account email address.  I need to somehow query Google and ask: Is this access token valid for example@example.com?  In this case, example@example.com is the Google account unique identifier - the email address someone uses to log in to their Google account. This cannot be assumed to be a Gmail address - someone can have a Google account without having a Gmail account.  The Google documentation clearly states how, with an access token, data can be retrieved from a number of Google services. Nothing seems to state how you can check if a given access token is valid in the first place.  Update The token is valid for N Google services. I can't try a token against a Google service as means of verifying it as I won't know which subset of all Google's services a given user actually uses.  Furthermore, I'll never be using the Google authentication access token to access any Google services, merely as a means of verifying a supposed Google user actually is who they say they are. If there is another way of doing this I'm happy to try. LED light needs replacing every few weeks I have two GU5.3 bulbs in my bathroom - one of them went off a month or so ago so I bought the following 3 pack:   I've gone through 2 of the new bulbs in the space of weeks. I have never seen the bulbs fade out while being on, it's only when we turn the light switch on that they don't come back on (like this morning, I was first in the bathroom and the bulb was off again). No fuses blown or any indication of tripping.  How should I approach this? Is there an GUI Designer for python? How do I replace multiple spaces with a single space in C#? How can I replace multiple spaces in a string with only one space in C#?

I have installed MacTex 2012 distribution, Mac OS X 10.7.5 Theorem style with name as argument Is there some way to get a theorem type which will make a theorem with the name passed as a parameter? In other words, is there a way to define "named" such that   \begin{named}[NAME] text \end{named}   will print   "NAME: text"?  I tried using the definition \newtheorem*{named}{}, but that results in   "(NAME): text", which is quite different from what I am trying to do.  I know that I could also create a new instance of \newtheorem for each named theorem I want to use, but that is clunky and inconvenient. Is there a better way?
