I have a Ibanez SR300 bass and a hard case for it. I will be travelling from Bangalore, India to Washington DC in a couple of months and I am wondering how to take my guitar along. Can I check it in? Would it be safe? Do I have any alternatives?  I will be flying Etihad Airlines from Bangalore -> Abu Dhabi -> Washington DC.
During my upcoming holiday to the USA I'm thinking about buying a new guitar as the exchange rate is extremely favorable. Excuse my naivety but I have never flown with a guitar before. What is a recommended way to go about this? Could I take it as carry on luggage or would it have to be checked? If checked luggage what kind of precautions should I take to keep it safe? Are there any problems with flying US budget carriers? If I do buy the guitar I'm expecting to have to make two flights with it, one domestic flight with Virgin America and an international flight with Air NZ.
If I have a Xaml Window, how does one open it as a child window, and then have the parent window wait for the child to close before the parent window continues executing? How to completely delete the head of a function expression How do I get the form id of my form? I've just begun to make my modules and I'm at a standstill. I got this code from someone else and am trying to customize it:  function hook_form_alter(&amp;$form, &amp;$form_state, $form_id) {   if ($form_id == 'the form id for the node form') {     $form['#submit'][] = 'my_custom_submit_handler';   } } What would be the Slater's determinant representation for an excited state? Setup  Introducing this spinorbital notation:  \begin{align} \Psi_1=\chi_{(r1)}\alpha_{(\omega1)}  = 1 \\ \Psi_1=\chi_{(r1)}\beta_{(\omega1)}  = \bar{1} \end{align}  and the Slater's determinant, for a system of two electrons, is:  \begin{align} |\Psi\rangle = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} \Big|  \begin{array}{cc} 1 &amp; \bar{1}  \\ 2 &amp; \bar{2}  \\ \end{array}  \Big| = \frac{|1\bar{2}\rangle-|\bar{1}2\rangle}{\sqrt2} \end{align}  Question  Based on the example, what would be the Slater's determinant representation for an excited state like $\Psi_a^r$ (i.e. with parallel spins like: $|\bar{1}\bar{2}\rangle$) and $\Psi_{ab}^{rs}$ (feel free to use any number) ? How are "Suggested Tags" chosen? After you've typed in a question, you get suggested tags that appear that look like this:        It appears that you need a minimum amount of characters ():     you must have entered a title (any length) and a minimum body length of 220 characters.   But other than that, how are the tags chosen? Is it:   A match of the title/body with other questions (taking the tags from those questions) A match of the title/body with tag excerpts (taking tags with overlap) A match of the title/body with tag wikis (taking tags with overlap) All of the Above None of the Above Other (please explain)   Some additional info from :  The suggested tags seem to only pop up on meta.so (they do not work on regular Stack Overflow, or on other SE sites).  While we're on the topic, why isn't this feature implemented network-wide? How do I get a slanted \sum symbol? I want to use a slanted \sum symbol denoting a different meaning from summation.

One would assume it to be about 2 square meters, but this is obviously not the case. In fact, I'm reading Illium by Dan Simmons. A quote follows:     Much like the room they had faxed into, this space was windowless and about twenty feet square. But unlike the other room, this one was warm, lighted, and free of snow or ice. And unlike the other room, this one was almost filled with an oval metal machine about fifteen feet long.   By this description, "twenty feet square" seems to mean 20x20 feet aka 400 square feet or 40 square meters. Given that Dan Simmons is a renowned American writer, it's not likely that he just can't speak English correctly. So, who's right and who's wrong here?

I have used SSL for another website https://www.domain_2.com/ on the same server.  Due to some technical limitations (single IP), if you try https://www.domain_1.com, browser will show the same domain_2 website. But this is not a concern for me.  Question: will this scnario impact SEO of domain_1 (non-HTTPS) site? Following discussion , what constitutes a weapon damage die?  Is it any damage die dealt by the weapon? For example, consider a  longsword.     While the sword is ablaze, it deals an extra 2d6 fire damage to any target it hits.   What are the weapon damage dice? Just the 1d8 from the longsword? Or do the 2d6 Fire damage also count? Prove that for any finite sequence of decimal digits, there exists an $n$ such that the decimal expansion of $2^n$ begins with these digits. If $\gcd(a,b)=1$, then there exists integers $x$ and $y$ such that $xa + yb = 1$ If $a$ and $b$ are two roots of $x^4 + x^3 - 1 = 0$ prove that $ab$ is a root of $x^6 + x^4 + x^3 - x^2 - 1$. When does $\lim_{n\rightarrow \infty} a_n = 0$ imply $\sum_{n = 0}^{\infty} a_n$ converges? This is just a general question. I know the opposite statement is always true. I'm just asking when the converse holds. I know that the converse is not true in some cases, such as for harmonic series. What additional restrictions are needed to make this statement true? I'm trying to fill out the skills section on my first character, but when I look at the character sheets in the Starter Set as examples of how to make a character, the skills that are circled have higher modifiers than their Dexterity or Strength or whatever should make them.  I've filled out all skills but those. What do I add to the ability modifier to get those numbers?   My abilities are Strength 13, Dexterity 14, Constitution 11, Intelligence 15, Wisdom 8, and Charisma 8. Proficiencies are Arcana, Athletics, History, Investigation and Stealth. My saving throws are Strength and Dexterity.   I just started D&amp;D and have the Player's Handbook, DM's Guide, Monster Manual, and the Starter Set.
