I made excuses to not go to school.  I made excuses not to go to school.    Are both of them correct?
This is one thing that keeps bugging me, and maybe there's a direct answer. Grammatically, which one is more correct of these two?  Does it make a difference?  I tried not to do that. I tried to not do that.
How can I develop my Android game for different phone resolutions? Rounded caps on a Bezier Curve pipe This may be a simple question.  Essentially I am procedurally generating random 3D figures using a bezier curve and bezier circle bevel object, however, one of the only things I can't figure out how to do is how to round the end caps of the object.   I have tried using a taper object like suggested  but have had only limited success.  This is about as close as I've gotten:   I should note that all of this is done through Python and I'm not modeling any of this by hand. So any suggestions for how I can make the rounded caps programmatically would be greatly appreciated. How to count the number of set bits in a 32-bit integer? 8 bits representing the number 7 look like this:  00000111   Three bits are set.     What are algorithms to determine the number of set bits in a 32-bit integer? How to view the output of a running process in another bash session? I have left a script running on a remote machine from when I was locally working at it. I can connect over SSH to the machine as the same user and see the script running in ps.   $ ps aux | grep ipcheck myuser  18386  0.0  0.0  18460  3476 pts/0    S+   Dec14   1:11 /bin/bash ./ipchecker.sh   It is simply outputting to stdout on a local session (I ran ./ipchecker.sh form a local terminal window, no redirection, no use of screen etc).  Is there anyway from an SSH session I can view the output of this running command (without stopping it)?  So far the best I have found is to use strace -p 18386 but I get hordes of text flying up the screen, its far too detailed. I can stop strace and then sift through the output and find the text bring printed to stdout but its very long and confusing, and obviously whilst it's stopped I might miss something. I would like to find a way to see the script output live as if I was working locally.  Can anyone improve on this? The obvious answer is to restart the script with redirection or in a screen session etc, this isn't a mission critical script so I could do that. Rather though, I see this as a fun learning exercise. Extruding Vector Files in Blender I am sure this has been discussed quite a few times, but I found a tutorial recently doing the exact same thing as I did, but in my case my logo is messing up!  Here is the link to the workflow:   This is what it looks like after adding the solidify modifier:   I already recalced the normals of my spline, but besides that it messes up my spline shape, it had no effect.  Any suggestions on how to fix it? Or operand with int in if statement What is a single word for a person who, as a habit, exaggerates a lot when relating information?   So for example, they relate something that happened but exaggerate so much that they are including clear falsehood and they are well known for doing that. How to clone/copy all file/directory attributes onto different file/directory? I want to copy the attributes (ownership, group, ACL, extended attributes, etc.) of one directory to another but not the directory contents itself.  This does not work:  cp -v --attributes-only A B cp: omitting directory `A'              Note: It does not have to be cp. How can I make my microSD card writable? Appropriate data transformation Installing PHP 5.6 on Xenial (16.04) I need to use php5 (5.6) because I'm working on a Drupal 7 project which doesn't support php7. The problem is I recently updated to ubuntu 16.04 Xenial which seems to .   I tried to install it from , however when It try to install it with apt I always get similar errors.  $ sudo apt-get install php5-cli Cependant les paquets suivants le remplacent :   php7.0-cli:i386 php7.0-cli`   Which means it's obsolete. How can I install PHP 5.6 on Xenial? I'm having a problem setting up a vhost on Apache 2.4, using CentOS 6.3.  This question seems to have been answered several times on this forum, but none of the solutions work for me.  Basically, I set up a vhost with a particular document root. When I attempt to access the site, I get a permissions error. But I have no problem if I use a different root.  More specifically, if I set the root to be /volume1/web/xxx, I get a 503 because of a permission problem on index.html.  But if I set it to be /volume1/web, the index.html comes up without a problem.  The details:   I set the persmissions on volume1, web, and xxx to 755. I set the permissions on the index.html files to 777. I copy the index.html file to both /volume1/web and /volume1/web/xxx, so that they have identical index files with identical permissions.   In httpd.conf, I set the VirtualHost options so that I can easily switch the document root by changing 2 comment marks  I have the following lines in the conf file:  NameVirtualHost *:80  &lt;VirtualHost *:80&gt;     ServerName localhost     #DocumentRoot /volume1/web     DocumentRoot /volume1/web/xxx      #&lt;Directory /volume1/web&gt;     &lt;Directory /volume1/web/xxx&gt;       Options Indexes FollowSymLinks Includes ExecCGI       AllowOverride All       Order Allow,Deny       Allow from all     &lt;/Directory&gt;      ErrorLog logs/localhost-error_log     CustomLog logs/localhost-access_log common &lt;/VirtualHost&gt;   These lines contain all the suggestions that worked for other people with the same problem.  What I get when I enter localhost in my browser depends on the document root.   If the root is /volume1/web, the index.html page comes up. if the root is /volume1/web/xxx, then I get a 503 error, and the apache error log has this line:  [Thu Jul 19 17:17:52 2012] [error] [client ::1] (13)Permission denied: access to /index.html denied   I also tried adding an index.php file to the directory. I then got permission denied messages for both the php file and the html file.  I also tried setting the user : group to apache : apache on the directories and files. That didn't help.  I've done everything I can think of to fix the permissions, to no avail.  Does anyone have an idea about what's happening here?  Thanks. mongodb $exists always returning 0 Update Eclipse with Android development tools v. 23 Should you choose the MONEY or DECIMAL(x,y) datatypes in SQL Server? I'm curious as to whether or not there is a real difference between the money datatype and something like decimal(19,4) (which is what money uses internally, I believe).  I'm aware that money is specific to SQL Server. I want to know if there is a compelling reason to choose one over the other; most SQL Server samples (e.g. the AdventureWorks database) use money and not decimal for things like price information.    Should I just continue to use the money datatype, or is there a benefit to using decimal instead? Money is fewer characters to type, but that's not a valid reason :) Print xml with php How to remove \n from a list element?

It is about a ship, travelling through the universe, looking for habitable planets. Why, I can't remember. People are held in Cryo Stasis and I think they are wearing nothing in the chamber but some kind of mesh. Every time the ship gets close to a planet it wakes one or two of the people (one woman, one man?) to check it out but they never find anything good. I think in the end they wake up and discover, that they have arrived back at Earth. Other details are very vague but I seem to recall there was lots of stuff about a (blue?) light, dreaming/dreams and something about the cold, or cold blue lights or similar. Does that ring a bell for anyone? The problem from Burton: show that the equation $n^2 + (n+1)^2 = m^3$ has no solution in the positive integers.  So far, I can see that gcd($n$,$n+1$)$=1$ and $m \equiv_4 1$ and $m=a^2 + b^2$ for some integers a,b. I'm guessing I need to reach a contradiction.  At this point, I am stuck. Any hints?
