How much of the Game of Thrones show dialogue is taken directly from the books? I'm currently re-watching the series (never read the books). Whenever there's a scene with Tyrion I always find myself impressed by the writing/his witty comebacks. Are these all the work of George, or did the show writers help out.
How much creative independence are the Show runners accorded in Game of Thrones? Since Season 3, we have been observing that the show was taking a different direction than the books. Many important characters never made it into the show, others who are still alive were killed off.   As we know the show is supposed to be based on the books, not to be direct adaption of the books from print to television media, there's bound to be a certain degree of creative independence accorded to them by the author of the series, George R.R. Martin.   The question is, how much independence do they have? Do they still have to take GRRM on board with whatever changes they might intend to make? By "they" I mean D&amp;D and the whole writers crew for the show. Given the number of significant changes they have made, I reckon the answer would be a lot. Has GRRM or HBO ever commented on that?
When I call Response.Redirect(someUrl) I get the following HttpException:     Cannot redirect after HTTP headers have been sent.   Why do I get this? And how can I fix this issue? Proving the measure of an increasing sequence of measurable sets is the limit of the measures Show that if $A_1\subseteq A_2\subseteq A_3\subseteq\cdots$ is an increasing sequence of measurable sets (so $A_j\subseteq A_{j+1}$ for every positive integer $j$), then we have $$m\left(\bigcup_{j=1}^\infty A_j\right)=\lim_{j\to\infty}m(A_j)$$  Here is my proof: According to the $\sigma$-algebra property, $\bigcup_{j=1}^{\infty}A_j$ is a measurable set, so it makes sense to talk about $m(\bigcup_{j=1}^{\infty}A_j)$. Firstly, I prove that $\lim_{j\to\infty}m(A_j)\leq m(\bigcup_{j=1}^{\infty}A_j)$. This is because for any given positive integer $N$, $A_N\subseteq \bigcup_{j=1}^{\infty}A_i$, according to monotonicity, we have $m(A_N)\leq m(\bigcup_{j=1}^{\infty}A_i)$. Take the limit,we will have $\lim_{j\to\infty}m(A_j)\leq m(\bigcup_{j=1}^{\infty}A_j)$. Secondly, I prove that $m(\bigcup_{j=1}^{\infty}A_j)\leq \lim_{j\to\infty}m(A_j)$. For any given positive integer $N$, $\bigcup_{j=1}^N A_j = A_N$. According to monotonicity,we have $m\left(\bigcup_{j=1}^N A_j\right)=m(A_N)\leq \lim_{j\to\infty}m(A_j)$. Take the limit, we will have $m\left(\bigcup_{j=1}^\infty A_j\right) \leq \lim_{j\to\infty} m(A_j)$. Combine the above two arguments, we will see that $$m\left(\bigcup_{j=1}^\infty A_j\right)=\lim_{j\to\infty} m(A_j)$$$\Box$  The above is my proof, unlike many books, my proof does not use the property of countable additivity. So I doubt my proof is correct. Who can point out where are my mistakes? What's a good word for a person, or a state, when a person is constantly waiting for life to get good, but does nothing to actually make it happen I've written a song about people who constantly wait for something good to happen to them and am looking for a word to describe this state/paradox/condition.   The song is about people who expect life to get better for no reason, talk about moving to a bigger city or a different place as if that would magically make them rich, famous and happy, and keep talking about how they are going to do this or that, but never do it. I was under the impression that there's a psychological term for this state, but can't google it up, so I probably made it up.  This is essentially a song about myself, I keep talking about how I love to make music, or shoot videos, but I never actually produce anything, yet it's the only thing I can think of. When it comes to the moment to take action – I just stay at home watching tv shows.  I know it's a broad question and list of topics, but I guess I'm looking for a word that describes this state – of doing NOTHING. Navigate folder structure in Open/Save File Dialog with keyboard? Question about the order of the product of two elements in an abelian group My reference for learning abstract algebra says that in an abelian group $G$ the product of two elements (say $a$ with order $n$ and $b$ with order $m$) has order $mn$ if $gcd(n,m) = 1$.   What I don't understand is where the $gcd(m,n)=1$ comes into use in proving this fact? For example, $ a^{mn} = (a^n)^m = (e)^m = e$ (identity element). A similar argument for $b^{mn}$ together with the fact that $G$ is abelian is enough to show that $(ab)^{mn} = e$. From here, how do I conclude for an integer $r &lt; mn$ that $(ab)^r \neq e$  Also, are there any other conclusion that can be drawn if $gcd(n,m) \neq 1$ ?  Thanks for any feedback in advance ! Forgot to submit consumption tax (GST) declaration form upon exiting Tokyo How can the backtick character ` be included in code? I tried before to post a shell script that contained a ` character as an answer on Stack Overflow. The parser insisted on treating the backtick as formatting instead of part of code.  How can I include it? How to diagnose a search engine ranking drop? There has been a significant drop (90%) in traffic from Google to one of my well-established sites (6+ years) in the last week. Searches show that the top 3 wide keywords all dropped 4 spots. Searches for other keywords do not show ANY results in the first 10 to 25 pages of results, while previously one 1st or 2nd page at most.  Since there are , the question really is:  What steps are necessary to figure out what caused such a drop?  There have been no major changes during this period or the last month on the site and certainly not in the homepage which has dropped in rank. Over all the years of running this site and plenty of others, I have never experienced this. There are is duplicate content on my site and I have rigorously used canonical links for the last few years to ensure it is not misinterpreted as such. How to remove trailing whitespaces with sed? How do get my sitelinks to appear on Google search results? The Lorentz force on a charged particle is perpendicular to the particle's velocity and the magnetic field it's moving through. This is obvious from the equation:  $$ \mathbf{F} = q\mathbf{v} \times \mathbf{B} $$  Is there an intuitive explanation for this behavior? Every explanation I've seen simply points at the equation and leaves it at that.  I can accept mathematically why $\mathbf{F}$ will be perpendicular to $\mathbf{v}$ and $\mathbf{B}$ (assuming the equation is correct, which it is of course). But that doesn't help me picture what's fundamentally going on.  Trying to create an analogy with common experiences seems useless; if I were running north through a west-flowing "field" of some sort, I wouldn't expect to suddenly go flying into the sky.  I'm hoping there's a way to visualize the reason for this behavior without a deep understanding of advanced theory. Unfortunately, my searching for an explanation makes it seem like something one just has to accept as bizarre until several more years of study. Trigger to check for duplicate contacts on lead conversion I'd like to write a Lead trigger, to check for duplicate Contacts before inserting the lead, or converting it.   Contacts fields I'd like to check:   Firstname - should not be the same as the leads name Lastname - should not be the same as the leads name Email - should not be the same as the leads phone   After checking these fields &amp; failing to find a duplicate, only then should the lead be converted. How do I convert the coordinates of a click to a tilemap position? How do you turn a tilemap (produced by TileD) for cocos2d where I can click on individual items and get a callback?  Is it just a case of converting captured touch and finding out where it is on the tilemap and then converting that to pixels  -- but that doesn't say what item was clicked on.  I have a tilemap of a city with buildings on it, and I'd like to be able to click or press on a specific building, get a callback.  What would be the best way to accomplish this? Show that if $a$ and $b$ are positive integers with $(a,b)=1$ then $(a^n, b^n) = 1$ for all positive integers n  Hi everyone, for the proof to the above question,  Can I assume that since $(a, b) = 1$, then in the prime-power factorization of a and b, they have no prime factor in common, when they are taken to the $nth$ power, they will still have no prime factors in common, and so $(a^n, b^n) = 1$ for all positive integers n.  I think I'm jumping to conclusions here again, if so, leave some tips on how to do the proof properly, thanks :)  And also, I do not know how to approach the reverse problem where if $(a^n, b^n) = 1 then (a, b) = 1$, any guidance will be much appreciated! How do I prevent a line from appearing by itself:  Orphan: at the bottom of the page, or Widow: at the top of the page? What are the rules for calling the base class constructor?

Movie where a guy is sent to a sandy planet where time moves really fast but slow to the outside observer All I remember is the guy was sent to a planet to test something or he did something illegal, and time moved really fast on the planet but slow to the outside world. He had to fix something to leave the planet I think. His dad was also dying and he checked how many days he had left every day, but in the end his dad didn't actually die as time was fast. It took place on a sandy planet. Create a table with LaTeX I need to copy a table from a pdf file to my LaTeX document. I know I have to do it by hand but still don't understand how to create a table with LaTeX. modular arithmetic, solving $ax + b \equiv c \pmod d$? For example $151x - 294\equiv 44\pmod 7 $. How would I go about solving that?  The answer says to simplify it into the $ax\equiv b\pmod c $ form first, but I have no clue on how to get rid of the $294$... help?
