problems using apa6e with biblatex-apa As in  I'm trying to use apa6e and biblatex-apa together and having problems.  Before I arrived at these problems, over the course of many hours of much reading, I first managed to get BibTeX working as expected in a simple input file (by modifying sample2e.tex). Then I managed to get apa6e working as expected based on the author's example in apa6e.pdf (which uses apacite). But when I try to get apa6e working with biblatex-apa, I end up with problems.  Here's my input file:  \documentclass{apa6e}  \usepackage[american]{babel} \usepackage{csquotes}  % biblatex \usepackage[style=apa]{biblatex} \bibliography{biblatex-apa-test-references}  \title{An Example Document} \shorttitle{Psychology: the end} \author{Silly Name}  \authornote{\dots} \abstract{\dots}  \begin{document}  \maketitle  This is an example input\cite{7.01:2} file.  Comparing it with the output it generates can show you\cite{7.01:3a} how to produce a simple document of your own.  \printbibliography  \end{document}   Attempting to typeset this in TeXShop by running LaTeX, then BiBTeX (which based on console messages, does seem to correctly call biblatex rather than BiBTeX), then LaTeX again, I get the following error message which I am having great difficulty (no doubt due to my lack of experience with TeX and co.) decoding.

All trials gave a similar error.  Can someone help? I'm impressed that the poster above was able to do anything with apa6e and biblatex-apa, and if I only had her problem of having the reference page title show up in bold, I'd be really happy.  If you need to know, my tools are from a fresh installation of MacTeX that I immediately updated using the TeX Live Utility. I've checked my versions for apa6e (v0.3) and biblatex-apa (v4.2), and I think these are current.
Unsung hero dilemma This is partly related to  question.  I ran some queries on odata for my work on Stack Overflow, and I have found that my statistics are the following ones:  Accepted answers: 148 Zero score accepted answers: 36 Percentage of total: 24,3%  I probably fit the idea of the Unsong hero badge, as I've mostly been active in  questions, from when it only had around 200 Questions until now.  To get the badge I could either try to get one of my accepted answers downvoted once, that would give me a 25% accept rate; I could also delete 4 of my accepted answers with 1 or more score. That would also give me the badge, but this just seems wrong: You are actually encouraging me to either try to get a down-vote on a good answer, or delete good answers.  So, should I delete good answers to receive a gold badge?  Update: It's not that I care much if I get a badge or not, it's only a badge after all and not why I spend time on Stackoverflow anyways. But it's not ideal [read: problem] that I'm encouraged to delete accepted answers or try to get downvotes to achieve a badge. Solve the functional equation $f(xy) = f(x)f(y) - f(x + y) + 1$ and $f(1) = 2$ I'm working on this problem already, the domain and co-domain are the set of Rational Numbers. we see that setting $x = 1$ and $y = n$, we obtain $f(n + 1) = f(n) + 1$  But I'm trying to prove that $f(n) = n + 1$ for all $n$, the case when $n = 1, 2$ is obviously true, how do I approach this via induction?

Can't convert string into float/double Center Gravity in Unity JavaScript: client-side vs. server-side validation Which is better to do client side or server side validation?  In our situation we are using    jQuery and MVC.   JSON data to pass between our View and Controller.     A lot of the validation I do is validating data as users enter it. For example I use the the keypress event to prevent letters in a text box, set a max number of characters and that a number is with in a range.   I guess the better question would be, Are there any benefits to doing server side validation over client side?    Awesome answers everyone. The website that we have is password protected and for a small user base(&lt;50). If they are not running JavaScript we will send ninjas. But if we were designing a site for everyone one I'd agree to do validation on both sides. In a Discord call on the desktop app and my voice cannot be heard by others. When I use Discord  through browser I can be heard. Any help appreciated. How to delete a non-empty directory in Terminal? Background: I'm making a retro style game for both fun, and an unofficial contest.   I have bought a song, song X. However, I then found notation for song X, and all the instruments. So basically, it's a program recreating song X in a sense.  I took the notation, and used another program to make it sound like a chiptune does (just for the fun of it, and it sounds good :P). However, I would like to use this in my game. It's non-commercial, but is this allowed? I would've said yes, because I'm not actually using the original, copyrighted song.  I think the main point is can I:   Use the music with no reference to the author Use the music with a reference, since it's non-profit. Not use the music at all since the melody and rhythm is copyright. Selecting features within Polygon from another layer using QGIS? I'm using QGIS 1.8 with a PostGIS database and I have three PostGIS-layers in QGIS a lines layer, a points layer and a polygon layer.  What I'm trying to do is to select a polygon in the polygon layer and mark all points within this polygon.   For me the only way to do this is to use the button "Select by Polygon" but in this way, I cannot use an existing polygon for selection. A question about how to express a fraction as ${1\over q_1}+{1\over q_2}+ \cdots+{1\over q_N}$ Let $x$ be a positive rational number, strictly between $0$ and $1$. Prove that there is a finite strictly increasing list of positive integers $2 \leq q_1&lt;q_2&lt;\cdots&lt;q_N $ such that $$x={1\over q_1}+{1\over q_2}+ \cdots+{1\over q_N}.$$  I have tried many methods, such as mathematical induction. I know it is obvious that $\frac{1}{m}$ is right for assumption, but when I begin to prove $\frac{2}{m}$, I feel it is hard to find some patterns for $\frac{2}{m}$. Thus, maybe my thoughts are wrong.  Also, I still tried to change the fraction so that the numerator will be smaller and smaller. But I still cannot find a way to lower the numerator. Can someone help me solve the question? Or, can someone give me some hints. I will appreciate you very much! Are there any advantages to stunning an alien besides being able to interrogate it?

I've found a few tools that can import an obj sequence into blender, but most are outdated and don't work. Are there any scripts or plug-ins that can do that? I'm new to linux and the terminal. As I learn how to use the terminal to navigate through directories, I like to use the gui file explorer to mirror my terminal navigation. The icons and file extension info in the gui file explorer help me figure out what everything is. However, I can't access the root folder via the gui, I can only access it via the terminal. Is there a way to enable access to the root folder outside of the terminal? If you cast Polymorph on a non beast creature then cast Awaken on their beast form how much carries over after polymorph ends?  Polymorph does not give any explicit information on what happens to your statistics when the polymorph ends:     The transformation lasts for the duration, or [drops to 0 hp]. [...] The target's game statistics, including mental ability scores, are replaced by the statistics of the chosen beast.  (Basic Rules, pg. 266)   So this leaves ambiguity when game statistics are altered during polymorph,   The charm effect of Awaken seems pretty clear from the  and reinforced by the specific wording referring to the target as a beast or plant during effects and a creature afterwards:     The awakened beast or plant is charmed by you [longer than polymorph.] When the charmed condition ends, the awakened creature chooses [...] (Basic Rules, pg. 216)   The other two effects of awakening (other than making a plant mobile) are less clear-cut:     The target gains an Intelligence of 10. The target also gains the ability to speak one language you know.  (Basic Rules, pg. 216)   I would guess the modification to intelligence would apply to the beast's stats and therefore end with polymorph.     as being independent of creature statistics and act more as the character's experience. I'd argue the experience of a stranger turning you into a mouse, then gifting you the ability - as a mouse - to speak a language you have never used before would be an experience you couldn't lose I'm not sure if the language and intelligence granted from awakening should remain linked.    These are two examples I can see this having significant impact on my campaign:   Meet an NPC I don't share a language with, Polymorph them then Awaken their beast form so they can speak my language. Can I now communicate with them when they turn back?  If their original intelligence was higher then 10 is it reduced to 10? Say I use find familiar to get an owl (classified as a fey) familiar, then polymorph it to an owl (classified as a beast) so my druid friend can cast Awaken on it, does my familiar keep an intelligence of 10 and/or the ability to speak?   So after reverting from an awoken polymorphed state would you keep the 10 intelligence and a new language, only the new language, or not keep either? I'm trying to make airsoft chronograph/chronometer (a device that measures airsoft bullet speed). The idea is to measure time in which bullet is traveling from point A to point B, and then I can calculate bullet speed. Bullet is shot into plastic pipe with diameter of 32mm. I've tried to put on one side IR LED and on the other side phototransistor (BPW 40), both at the start and end of the tube. Something like this:  Blue circles are phototransistors, red circles are IR LEDs and white circles are airsoft bullets. When bullet passes through area where bullet 2  is drawn (just in between IR LED and phototransistor), everyting works perfectly. But when the bullet passes where bullets 1 and 3 are drawn, it isn't detected. That is expected, but unwanted behavior. So my question is: how can I detect bullets regardlessly of it's position ? I've thought about putting IR LEDs and phototransistors around the pipe (not only in one place), like this:  but this solution isn't cheapest: 5 IR LEDs + 5 BPW 40 = cca $12 times 2 (because I need it on both sides of the pipe) = $24. Is there any cheaper solution ? Is BPW 40 good choice for phototransistor ? I don't know which IR LEDs I'm using (and salesman in the store also doesn't know - he told me these are generic ones for remote controllers, like TV or DVD controller). Diameter of the pipe is 32mm and it will be long about 14cm (sensors will be 10cm apart). Diameter of airsoft bullet is 6mm. EDIT: I'll go for my second idea. I just have one more question: is it better to arrange IR emitters and photo transistors this way:  or this way:  Thanks !!
