I recently noticed that I have ground wires attached to metal water pipes in my home, as shown in the following image.    The area marked A is where the water service enters the home with that blue handled valve being the main shut off.  The area marked B shows two exposed wires (assumed grounds) that are secured to the pipe which is the water heater's outgoing pipe.   Am I incorrect in thinking that the grounds should be secured to the other pipe, the one that brings water service into the home?
indicates that the water pipes should bonded to the electrical ground even if a grounding rod is used. How would one normally tell if that is the case? Is that bonding required to be accessible, or can it be hidden behind walls or buried? Where in the water system would it normally be bonded (e.g., before the main water shutoff, after, at the hot water tank)?  I recently had my electrical panel relocated and replaced, and don't recall seeing anything running from the panel to a water pipe - in the old panel or new. The electrician put in an intersystem bonding bridge, so the new ground rod, ground from the panel, and ground from the cable service are connected to it. I suppose that's where the bond from the water pipe would go?
Transit Visas for South Africa Undesirable-Overstay Tourists I received an undesirable status for overstaying a SA visa while hospitalized for injuries sustained in Lesotho. I had to cross into SA from Lesotho. Now I am banned entry into SA until Feb 2016 and though I have submitted a waiver request to remove the undesirable status, I hear from some the waiver request may take 4-5 months or even take longer than the time of banishment.  I have a pre-paid safari planned in October in which I need to fly through Johannesburg to get to Botswana. The Jburg border control requires tourists to pass through SA immigration even when simply changing planes.  1) Will SA grant me "transit" access if I don't leave the airport?  2) Will SA allow me to spend a night in the airport as the layover is 12 hours>  Thanks for passing on any info. doGet and doPost in Servlets What does the register keyword do in C language?

Is there a way to install a newer version than in the repository?  Ubuntu installs vagrant 1.4.3 at the moment, but I need at least 1.5 How to list files that were changed in a certain range of time?

Saving Photoshop multilayer file to PDF without layers size difference Why is it that when I save a file that has many, many layers to a PDF without layers as a copy that the file size is larger than flattening the layers and then saving the file as a copy to PDF? 19Mb vs. 5Mb?? Wouldn't saving a file without layers be the same as flattening the layers and then saving the file?? Can anyone explain this? Suppose $\mu(X)&lt;\infty$. Show that if $\ f\in\ L^q(X,\mu)$ for some $1\le q&lt;\infty$ then $\ f\in\ L^r(X,\mu)$ for $1\le r&lt;q$   In the solution the assistant wrote this:  If $1\le r&lt;q$ then $q/r\ge 1$. Let p be the dual exponent to $q/r$ (i.e. $\frac{1}{q/r}+\frac{1}{p}=1)$  then by Hölder Inequality  $\int_{X}|f|^rd\mu\le\underbrace{(\int_{X}|f|^qd\mu)^{r/q}}_{??????}(\int_X1^pd\mu)^{1/p}&lt;\infty$  for me the middle part doesn't make sense (it is not the hölder inequality) can somebody show it ?  instead of this can't we say (only in this case) that   $\int_{X}|f|^rd\mu\le (\int_{X}|f|d\mu)^r$ then  $(\int_{X}|f|d\mu)^r\le ((\int_{X}|f|^qd\mu)^{1/q}(\int_X1^pd\mu)^{1/p})^r&lt;\infty$  ? what is a thyristor As part of my 2330 lv3 am required to know about thyristors. I just want to confirm my understanding is correct. A thyristor is basically similar to a transistor, only it stays switched on when it's trigged for as long as there isn't a break in the circuit it's switching. Am I correct? How to create a progress bar? How do I install pepper-flash on Chromium? I have Chromium web browser on my Lubuntu 13.04 (pre-installed).  I use LX Terminal (pre-installed) to write commands. I am trying to download flash player on Chromium using instructions on this :  sudo add-apt-repository ppa:skunk/pepper-flash   After typing in my password, this worked. Now   sudo apt-get update   I didn't need to type in my password, as I continued on the same terminal, but got W:/ and E:/ fetch file errors  sudo apt-get install pepflashplugin-installer   I continued on the same terminal despite the fetch file errors... and they said pepflashplugin-installer could not be found.  Is the last error because of fetch file errors, or because I need to download pepflash-plugin-installer somewhere? Or is it because of something else?  I cannot download the Chrome browser, and not looking to use flash player on my Firefox web browser (installed using lubuntu software center). In almost all proofs I've seen of the Lorentz transformations one starts on the assumption that the required transformations are linear. I'm wondering if there is a way to prove the linearity:  Prove that any spacetime transformation $\left(y^0,y^1,y^2,y^3\right)\leftrightarrow \left(x^0,x^1,x^2,x^3\right)$ that preserves intervals, that is, such that  $$\left(dy^0\right)^2-\left(dy^1\right)^2-\left(dy^2\right)^2-\left(dy^3\right)^2=\left(dx^0\right)^2-\left(dx^1\right)^2-\left(dx^2\right)^2-\left(dx^3\right)^2$$  is linear (assuming that the origins of both coordinates coincide). That is, show that $\frac{\partial y^i}{\partial x^j}=L_j^i$ is constant throughout spacetime (that is, show that $\frac{\partial L_j^i}{\partial x^k}=0$).  Thus far all I've been able to prove is that $g_{ij}L_p^iL_q^j=g_{pq}$ (where $g_{ij}$ is the metric tensor of special relativity) and that $\frac{\partial L_j^i}{\partial x^k}=\frac{\partial L_k^i}{\partial x^j}$. Any further ideas? Single word describing something "outside of oneself" How can I find and replace specific words in a text file using command line? Could someone help me prove that given a finite measure space $(X, \mathcal{M}, \sigma)$ and a measurable function $f:X\to\mathbb{R}$ in $L^\infty$ and some $L^q$, $\displaystyle\lim_{p\to\infty}\|f\|_p=\|f\|_\infty$?    I don't know where to start. Are humans the only animal that requires "clean water"? I have a computer with a video card that has no Linux support.  I discovered this issue while trying to use a persistent usb to boot from.   I found that I can boot like that if I change options and edit so as to add nomodeset there (see ).  Also, editing the syslinux.cfg file from my live persistent USB and adding nomodeset in a line there made this setting automatic for booting from the persistent USB.  Can I make a similar edit for proper install from the same live USB?  Is it possible to edit something on the live USB in order to install the SO from it,  -- that is: having automatically the nomodeset setting already there when the installation starts?  My problem is that in order to install I think I already have to have added nomodeset or I'll see nothing on my display. I need a way to be sure that nomodeset it's permanent from the start. It is asked to solve the PDE  $$u_x + u_y + u = e^{x+2y}$$  My attempt: We have that $$\frac{dx}{1}=\frac{dy}{1}=\frac{du}{e^{x+2y}-u} $$  $\Rightarrow \frac{dy}{dx}=1 \Rightarrow y=x+C_1 \iff C_1=y-x$  $\Rightarrow \frac{du}{dx}= e^{x+2y}-u \iff \dot{u}+u=e^{x+2y} \iff \\ \frac{d}{dx}(e^x u) = e^{2x+2y} \iff u = e^{-x} ( \frac{1}{2}e^{2x+2y} + C_2)$  As $u$ is constant along its characteristics:  $$u(x,y)=\frac{e^{-x}}{2}(e^{2x+2y} + 2C_2(y-x))$$  where $C_2$ is any function of one variable. But wolfram gave the following answer  $$u(x,y)=\frac{e^{-x}}{4}(e^{2x+2y} + 4C_2(y-x))$$  as you can check   What am I doing wrong?
