I have a 7 day Schengen Validity Visa and currently visiting one of the Schengen countries. Is it possible to have a few days extension in the visa? or can i stay up to my Visa Validity Date?  Also, is it ok to apply for another Schengen Validity Visa after i leave the Schengen zone.
My daughter applied at the Italian Consulate in Philadelphia, and they gave her two entries for 20 days (we thought it was for 20 days each entry). She was in Italy 12 days, then went to England for 1 week and flew to Venice to take a 10-day cruise. She couldn't make it because they said she has only 8 remaining days, but she still has a land tour already paid this week.  What can she do? Can she extend the Schengen visa for 12 more days? Right now, she is in Madrid, but next week she has to fly from Barcelona to Paris to start with the tour. What would happen if she decides to take the tour with the expired visa? She is a US permanent resident.
Lately, I've seen many search results in the form of https://stackoverflow.com/q/&lt;id&gt; and /a/&lt;id&gt; on Google. Why do I see these slug-less permalinks instead of the full URL?  For instance, a search for  gives  instead of :        For the record, it seems that Google has indexed  and . Why shouldn't the denominator of the covariance estimator be n-2 rather than n-1? I'm not particularly fond of apps cluttering my $HOME directory with their own files or directories. It's rarely a problem, because most apps have the courtesy to hide their data by prefixing it with a dot or conforming to the ~/.config standard. But not snap.  Q1: Have I misunderstood this directory?  Is ~/snap really a directory which I'm supposed to enter and access on a daily basis on a par with ~/downloads, ~/pictures, ~/work, etc?  Q2: In any case: Can I move it e.g. ~/.snap?  I can't find anything like /etc/snap, /etc/default/snap, or ~/.config/snap to tweak things. I tried export SNAP_USER_DATA=$HOME/.snap but it didn't work. How can I switch back to Nvidia card from Intel with Nvidia-prime So I updated to Ubuntu 14.04 and found that the primusrun command no longer works, so ditched bumblebee in favour of nvidia-prime. This lets you switch video card from nvidia-settings rather than running through the command line (I prefer the old method, but want the primus performance).  The problem is that after switching to Intel from nvidia-settings, I can no longer open it up again to switch back to the nvidia card. When I open nvidia-settings I get a segmentation fault (according to the terminal).  Is there any way to open nvidia-settings switch back? I would like the ability to be able to switch between the two since having the nvidia card on all the time kills my battery and heats up the laptop a lot. I'm having a hard time understanding how changing space means changing time. In books I've read people are saying "space and time" or "" but never explain what the difference is between the two concepts or how they are related.  How are the concepts of space, time, and space-time related? Hyphenation of words containing slash How can I tell LaTeX to automatically split up the german word  Kontrast/Rausch-Verhältnis    into   Kontrast/Rausch-|Ver|hält|nis   LaTeX complains that "/" is not a letter. Does visiting Canada from USA under ESTA reset the visa waiver? Asking users to accept answer when they comment that it answers their question This started to happen immediately after I had rebooted the first time after doing a system upgrade. It first starts with a dialogue that says "System program problem detected". Then when I try to hit 'report problem' not much happens. I am led through a dialogue that always ends up the problem cannot be solved.  I am aware this is not a lot of information, however I'm not sure which information I need to publish and how should I obtain it to debug this problem.  Here's a screenshot! Can someone please elucidate the difference between "many" and "many a"? In what context of usage should we add an extra "a" beside the word "many"?  For example:         Many times, I had seen that . . . .   Many a times, I had seen that . . . .      I do not know if the example is accurate enough to support my question, but I would like to know the difference between how they are used. Commas with "so" I am confused with the usage of so.  Consider some examples from Oxford and Meriam-webster        It was still painful so I went to see a doctor (Oxford).   We were bored with the movie, so we left (MW).   There are no more chairs available, so you'll have to stand (MW).      So is a conjunction in all the above sentences. But I don't understand when to place a comma before it. So is one of FANBOYS. Thus, we have use a comma when it connects two independent clauses, which I think contradict the first sentence.  Is the placement of comma before so depends on a style guide? For example, Americans prefer a comma while the British doesn't. Equation numbering problems in AMSMath environments with \pause Why doesn't `sudo cd /var/named` work? What are "schlieren" in English? The German word for these patterns is "Schliere, pl. Schlieren", and apparently this word has entered the English language as a loanword (cf. article  in Wikipedia or entry  in OED). But the German loanword is probably not something most native speakers of English understand without the help of a dictionary, so what would you call, or how would you describe, the following patterns?  Concrete:    Air:    Oil on water:    Coffee and milk:    Paint:    Smoke:    Rock:    Marbled paper:    And so on.    "Waves" is not applicable, because waves are vertical undulations of the surface, while these are a pattern on, or inside, the surface level, with no amplitude.  "Striæ" does not really fit either, because those refer more to the parallel layers, than to the curly forms. I don't know how to disconnect a face from the rest of the mesh in edit mode.  This isn't like pressing P to separate the selection into a completely different object. I just want to select a face and disconnect/rip it away from the rest of the mesh but keep it as a part of the original object.  One way to do it would be to duplicate the face with ShiftD and then delete the original face. But I suspect there is a "native" command for disconnecting selected faces and I would like to learn it. Is it correct to say e.g. "I like your way of wearing" or "the way you wear looks perfect"?  Is it politely? Is it in use or not? May I use "the way you wear" referring to whole wearings including dress, scarf, hat, bracelet. jewellery, etc?  Thank you for your suggestions in advance. Contraction mapping in the context of $f(x_n)=x_{n+1}$. I'm interested in convergence of $f(x_n)=x_{n+1}$ and often hear this term referenced.  What does it mean to be a contraction mapping in the context of the sequence of real numbers given by $f(x_n)=x_{n+1}$? And what does it tell us about such sequence?  A search online gives the answer given by Wikipedia, that it is a function $f$ defined on a metric space $(M,d)$ from $M$ to itself with the property that for some real number $k \in [0,1)$,  $$d(f(x),f(y)) \leq k d(x,y)$$  This definition is quite unhelpful because I barely know what a metric space is. I feel like this definition is to generalized, and I'm interested in in the specific case of recursively defined real sequences $f(x_n)=x_{n+1}$ that there should be a more specific answer to my question. Latex create a second keywordstyle using listing doesn't work Selected references without hyperlink When using the hyperref package, is it possible to tell LaTeX not to create a link for some references?  In my case the page number is displayed in the footer in  \fancyhf[FC]{\thepage\ of \pageref{pg:end}}   which is what I want. Unfortunately every single page in the document then has a link to the final page, which is a bit silly.  Any ideas on how to fix that? I recently upgraded a c# windows service to run as a 64 bit .net process. Normally, this would be trivial, but the system makes use of a 32-bit DLL written in C++. It is not an option to convert this DLL to 64 bit, so I wrapped the DLL in a separate 32 bit .net process and exposed a .net interface via remoting.  This is quite a reliable solution, but I would prefer to run the system as a single process. Is there any way I can load my 32 bit DLL into a 64 bit process and access it directly (perhaps through some sort of thunking layer)?
