I noticed a purple-ish outline around my photo, however, I couldn't remove it through the Lightroom Defringe option. I have tried the fringe selector and playing around with the slider, nothing seems to work.
I have just bought a Nikon 50mm f/1.8D prime lens.  I took this picture (leg of my glasses frame on a mouse, and a LED desk lamp is on top of it) : f1.8, 1/80s, ISO 200   The purple fringing is right in the middle of the picture. Does it happen very often to this lens?
derivative of a determinant of matrix Let $A,B\in M_{n\times n}(\mathbb{R})$, prove that $$(\frac{d}{dt}\det(A+tB))_{t=0} = Tr(cof(A)^{T}\cdot B), $$ where $cof(A)$ is the cofactor matrix of $A$. I tried expanding it using row expansion, but it gets messed up. Any help? How to measure supply currents ranging from 1μA to 10mA?

I've always had an interest in electrical engineering (actually all engineering in general) and I've decided that I'd like to pursue a graduate degree.  I guess I'm wondering if I should really try to do this or just keep it as a fun hobby I spend all my free time doing.  So, the question is,  how does one change fields between undergrad and grad school?  A specific example follows, but please provide answers that address a more general case, so that your answers will be helpful to other people with the same general question.  I already have a BS and MS in chemistry with a minor in applied math.I published three papers during my MS, one first author in the top journal in my specialty and two as coauthor in an average and a so-so journal.  I hope those will count for something.  I finished my BS with around 3.1 and my MS with a 3.9 gpa.  I'm sure that my MS advisor would write me a great letter.  My GRE scores are too old to count so I'd have to retake it or try and get a pass on it since I already have a graduate degree.  Since finishing school I've been working for 4 years as a chemist.  I can get great recommendations from my supervisor who is a PhD chemist.      I've been working for a while to cover some of the things I would have learned in a BSEE to try and make up for my lack of one.  I worked through some texts on analog/digital design, lots and lots of programming, built a balancing robot that got a bit of internet attention, and I'm currently working on an autonomous robotics project that's looking really good so far.  After that I have more project ideas than I have time or money for.    I want to apply for PhD programs (specifically in controls/robotics) but I'm worried that my application will get tossed right away because I don't have a BSEE.  Maybe I should just apply to MS programs? Is it possible to simulate key press events programmatically? Is it possible to simulate key press events programmatically in JavaScript? How to use Terminal to delete all .svn folders recursively? Which cyan colored line is produced in the Thomson e/m apparatus? Related:   After reading Lisa Lee’s OP on an electron deflection tube, although she had some misunderstandings on its operation, I still believe that her question is still relevant. If one looks at the Thomson e/m tube filled with helium gas (made by ), the tracer light is created by de-excited electrons, not by an electron beam interacting with a phosphor as in Lisa Lee's OP. That is, the accelerated electrons scatters off of a low pressure helium gas and emit a tracer line to follow the electrons path, as shown below.     Now if you look at the bright line spectrum of helium,     One can clearly see that there are two “cyan” color lines around 500 nm. Following in Lisa Lee’s footsteps, there is a series of question one can ask: (1) which line is emitted by the Helium gas atoms? Or are both lines emitted? (2) How can a variable accelerating voltage for the electrons always produce the same tracer line color? In theory, I assume that if I decreased the energy of the electron beam, I could produce red (around 670 nm) or yellow (around 590 nm) tracer lines, but that doesn’t happen. Somehow, it appears to me that the e/m tube is “tuned” just right so that the emitted light is always this “cyan” color. Why? Is this mold? Black? White? What's the simplest way to call Http GET url using Delphi? There's a web services I want to call in my application, I can use it with importing the WSDL or by just use "HTTP GET" with the URL and parameters, so I prefer the later because it's simple thing.  I know I can use indy idhttp.get, to do the job, but this is very simple thing and I don't want to add complex indy code to my application.  UPDATE: sorry if I was not clear, I meant by "not to add complex indy code", that I don't want add indy components for just this simple task, and prefer more lighter way for that. How do I go about evaluating the following by contour integration?  $$ \int^1_0 \frac{dx}{(x^{2} - x^{3})^{1/3}} $$  The question does not fit in the standard form of : $\int^{2\pi}_0$ or $\int^\infty_{-\infty}$  etc.  I tried substituting $ x = cos(\theta) $ but got stuck. When is it appropriate to create an entity instead of a new content type? What is the benefit to creating new entity types over just building a new content type?    It seems a bit overkill to do all of the custom coding that is required to create a new entity when you have all of the CRUD and Views functionality already built into content types.

Why is Tony Stark in the Iron Man suit unaffected by G-forces, inertia and blunt force trauma? Tony's suit is an engineering marvel, and they explain many facets of the technology to help give legitimacy to the special powers, abilities and weapons it has.  I never read the Iron Man comics, but in the movie they really don't have a technological explanation for how he miraculously seems to be unaffected by crushing G-forces of sudden acceleration, the inertia of sudden stops and hair-pin turns, and especially the blunt force trauma from getting smashed in the face with Thor's hammer.  Certainly it appears the suit takes punishment, but Tony always remains unscatched, never a collapsed lung, broken bone or even a bloody nose.  In my infantile understanding of theoretical physics, the same technology that would be used to counter G-forces and sudden blunt force trauma to the body inside would be the very same technology used for  which in my honest opinion would be a much more stunning technological achievement than his heralded Arc Reactor.  Was their ever an explanation proferred for this and if so was it indeed attributed to Anti-Gravity? Living potato clock? if $a,b,c$ are non zero positive reals prove $$\sum_{cyc}\frac{1}{a^3+b^3+abc} \le \frac{1}{abc}$$ I have used A.M  G.M  inequality as follows:  $$a^3+b^3+c^3 \ge 3abc$$ adding $abc$ both sides we get  $$a^3+b^3+abc \ge 4abc-c^3=c(4ab-c^2)$$ so  $$\frac{1}{a^3+b^3+abc} \le \frac{1}{c(4ab-c^2)}$$ But since $a,b,c$ are positive reals  $$4abc-c^3 &lt; 4abc$$ so  $$\frac{1}{4abc-c^3} \gt \frac{1}{4abc}$$  but i am unable to proceed here Can crumbled feta cheese last almost a year? talks about feta cheese in a brine or milk bath lasting up to three months.  What about crumbled feta?  I was looking through the fridge, and found a 1/2 pound open container of crumbled feta.  I have only used about an ounce of it.  There is no sign of mold on it, and it smells like feta cheese.  A small sample tasted okay.  The amazing thing is that I bought it in October or November: 8-10 months ago!  I have a recipe that calls for almost a 1/2 pound of feta, and I will be the only one eating it (so I'm not trying to impress anybody!).  I dislike wasting food, but I dislike being sick even more!
