StructureMap error when invalid controller I am using Structure map like the MVC storefront by Rob Conery does and I have an AdminController and so to get to it I just type:  website/Admin/action   however if I miss spell the controller name I get the error below:  Exception Details: System.ArgumentNullException: Value cannot be null. Parameter name: key  There error occurs on this line:  Controller controller = ObjectFactory.GetInstance(controllerType) as Controller;   Does anyone have any ideas on how I can handle this error or not allow it to happen at all and maybe just goto a 404 page??  Cheers in advance Opening Raster stored in Esri Geodatabase using QGIS Is there a way to open a raster that is stored in ESRI V10.0 Geodatabase in QGIS V2.4?    I can open the vector layer, but there does not seems to be a way to open a raster. The Public Platform team is continuing to work towards  and we’re here today to announce a new onboarding experience for the review queues. In the  (), we learned that each queues’ instructions could be easily misinterpreted and additional information was difficult to find. Without proper guidance or context, new reviewers would contribute inconsistent reviews and risk having their review privileges suspended. With this release, our goals were to 1) better highlight the review privilege and 2) provide upfront instruction and guidance for successful reviewing. New privilege announcements Community moderation is a significant aspect of Stack Overflow and the Stack Exchange sites. We want users to be aware and familiar with this newly earned privilege, but also celebrate the opportunity to contribute to the community in a unique way.  Many users were discovering the review queues by chance. Once the privilege is earned, a new review queue icon with a red alert would appear in the top-right part of the navigation. We are adding a popover to bring more attention to this easy-to-miss icon. We will also be adding notices for when users earn access to other, higher reputation queues. Additionally, new reviewers will also receive an email notification about the newly earned privilege. They will only get the email if they earn the privilege and don't perform a review within 24 hours (anyone who doesn't want to receive email notifications like this can visit their  and turn off &quot;Tips and Reminders&quot;). We are also showing a popover to users who earned access to review queues in the past, but have never done a review or haven't reviewed in the last 30 days. This popover is only appearing for the next 90 days. The goal is to engage users who may not have interacted with the queues since we made  and . Welcome banner  If a reviewer clicks “Learn more” on the on-page popover or goes to the review queue home page (/review), they’ll be greeted with an onboarding message with general information about the review queues. Informational modals  Queue-specific modals will appear upon page load as you visit each queue. They summarize and highlight important aspects and tips about reviewing in a particular queue. This information can be revisited at any time by clicking “Learn more” under the page header. Feedback As always, please leave your feedback and any bugs you may discover related to this release below this post. We will be monitoring this post for the next few weeks (May 4, 2021). After May 4th, please report any further issues as new questions. A famous exercise which one encounters while doing Complex Analysis (Residue theory) is to prove that the given integral: $$\int\limits_0^\infty \frac{\sin x} x \,\mathrm  dx = \frac \pi 2$$ Well, can anyone prove this without using Residue theory?  I actually thought of using the series representation of $\sin x$: $$\int\limits_0^\infty \frac{\sin x} x \, dx = \lim\limits_{n \to \infty} \int\limits_0^n \frac{1}{t} \left( t - \frac{t^3}{3!} + \frac{t^5}{5!} + \cdots \right) \,\mathrm  dt$$ but I don't see how $\pi$ comes here, since we need the answer to be equal to $\dfrac{\pi}{2}$. How to prevent different checksums for different typesets Editing older revision (not most recent) no longer includes older title and tags, and automatic rollback note Does non-mass-energy generate a gravitational field? At a very basic level I know that gravity isn't generated by mass but rather the  and when I wave my hands a lot it seems like that implies that energy in $E^2 = (pc)^2 + (mc^2)^2$ is the source of gravity.  If the total energy of a particle contributes to the generation of a gravitational field, that seems to imply some strange things.  For example, you could accelerate a particle like an electron to such a high velocity that it has enough momentum / kinetic energy to collapse into a black hole.  An observer traveling with the electron would see an electron and stationary observers would see an arbitrarily massive black hole flying by.  These observations seem to be contradictory.  The same would be true of an extremely high energy photon.  Another consequence is that a stationary particle could appear to have so much mass that it could attract / deflect the trajectory of a rapidly moving observer.  It seems odd that at low velocities you wouldn't even notice a stationary electron as you pass it by but at high velocities the gravitational field you observe could be significant enough to alter your path.  Am I correct that non-mass-energy generates a gravitational field?  If it does, how are these strange observations like a particle looking like a black hole in one reference frame but not another reconciled? Elsevier has started circulating  as a consequence of the  to the editors of their journals:     Subject: US editors and reviewers can no longer handle submissions by   authors employed by the Government of Iran            Dear Dr Bruno Granier,      The Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) of the US Department of   the Treasury administers and enforces economic and trade sanctions. As   a result of OFAC sanctions we have been made aware that US editors, US   Elsevier staff and US reviewers are now unable to handle scientific   manuscripts where any of the authors are employed by the Government of   Iran. This includes the research departments of the various oil and   gas companies which are deemed to be entities of the Government of   Iran. We realize that this OFAC regulation will cause some   inconvenience in your role as an editor but Elsevier is legally   obliged to ensure that all reasonable efforts are made to avoid   submissions from Iranian government agencies and companies being   handled by US editors, US Elsevier staff and US reviewers. Please be   aware that editors, Elsevier staff and reviewers from outside the US   may still handle these manuscripts and that this OFAC regulation does   not pertain to manuscripts where the authors are based at Iranian   academic and research institutes. Manuscripts originating from a   clinical setting that are not government run, for example, a hospital   or clinical practice are also exempt from this regulation.      To view the official OFAC regulation, please click here. In practice   the result of these sanctions will mean that:      • Submissions where any author is based in Iran, and is not at an   academic and research institution, cannot be handled by US-based   editors, US Elsevier staff, US reviewers, or any US citizens based   outside of the US.      • If an Iranian author has dual affiliations (eg. university and   government), their submission cannot be handled by US-based editors,   US Elsevier staff, US reviewers, or any US citizens based outside of   the US.      • Affiliations of Iranian authors should therefore be checked, and any   manuscripts which fall under this OFAC regulation delegated to a   non-US editor, before handling.      • When assigning reviewers, affiliations of Iranian authors should   also be checked, and any papers which fall under this OFAC regulation   should only be sent to non-US reviewers. (As an editor you should do   what is reasonable to determine the nationality of a reviewer e.g.   check their email address. This check does not extend to emailing   reviewers directly to confirm their nationality or location). Unless   there is specific knowledge that a non-US-based reviewer is a US   citizen, editors can send such submissions to reviewers based outside   the US.      • If your journal workflow involves all submissions being handled by   US-based Elsevier staff, they will reject these manuscripts outright   before they reach you.      • Should there be no suitably qualified editor or reviewer, please   reject the manuscript outright.      When rejecting manuscripts which fall under this OFAC regulation   please use the new EES Decision Term "Reject - OFAC Sanctions" and the   following text:      "As a result of OFAC sanctions all editorial staff who are US-based/US   nationals are unable to handle scientific manuscripts which are   authored by Iranian scientists, employed by the Government of Iran.   Based on this OFAC regulation we are unfortunately unable to handle   your manuscript. We wish you success with your submission to another   Journal."       We apologize for the inconvenience this may cause. If you do have any   questions please contact your Publisher.       Sent on behalf of Dan Lovegrove      Cretaceous Research   Has there been any public response, by US editors or reviewers, stating whether they will obey (or not) the instruction? Also, does this letter conflict with the  of the  (all Elsevier journals are members of COPE as of January 2008)? Need a comma before an adverb as last word in sentence? Label legend interval with number of elements in ArcMap? I have made a series of  in ArcMap 10. When I classify the interval the bottom of the dialogue tells how many elements are in the class.  Is it possible to have this number automatically places beside my class labels? I am a first year Ph. D student, and I have been working on a new topic of research.  I worked day and night to prove something new and verified it. I began my Ph. D while my supervisor was on travel, but he returned before I had been here for long.  When he returned, he told me we have to stop and not continue without any reasonable reasons.  After a few months he began treating me poorly---always belittling and underestimating---although I got two grants from a top conference, made videos and podcasts, and constantly received praise for my good work and personality.    It seems that I have been treated as a competitor, not a collaborator.  Although agreeing with my approaches in private, my supervisor said false words to the committee to take the decision and stop my Ph. D work!  It is not surprising, as there was another former senior Ph. D student who I met on campus, who was not allowed to defend his Ph. D: this same supervisor claimed he was not able to finish his dissertation although he had published in a peer reviewed journal and having citation as well, it was scary and not familiar.  In front of committee, he lied, and said something without proving. I asked if he can make a detailed constructive criticism, but he could not.  All I can say that they are a gang literally, and he said words that show that he is jealous and doesn't want to see me having self confidence in my self. I know no one will believe me, but this is the truth.  Honestly, I am distressed and I'm losing sleep.  I had this dream where there were many people who saw me fail.  All things considered, I don't know whether what happened is good or bad, and I definitely don't know what I should do next!  I would be grateful for your advice and whether there is someone has encountered any similar situation. Placing items before \documentclass When looking in books or at sample code, I always see \documentclass appearing first. Is that absolutely necessary?  I have created some test code which seems to compile fine:  \def\SetClass{article} \documentclass{\SetClass} \begin{document}     This is some text. \end{document}   Is there any problem with placing other items, such as \input, \usepackage, or such details before the \documentclass? What's the deepest reason why QCD bound states have integer charge? This is similar to , except it's a bug report, not a feature request.  Currently, the nominee's comments on his/her own post are not highlights, unless you click "add / show more comments"  When the page is loaded it looks like:    AfterI click "add / show more comments", it becomes:    Could we have the blue highlighting on the post owner's comments there all the time? It becomes difficult to see the nominees responses to questions, especially on nominations where there aren't enough comments to enable the "add / show more comments" features, like Matt's. How to output a counter with leading zeros? I can output the value of a counter in a LaTeX document via:  \setcounter{mycounter}{1} \arabic{mycounter}   Which inserts a 1. But how do I format the output by, for example, adding a leading zero if mycounter is less than 10 in a way similar to what  lets you do by specifying %02d as your format string? I am on Ubuntu and I have forgotten the password for my Gnome Keyring (yes, stupid me, I know). Any way I can get it back?

What is the term for the double consecutive use of a word with stress on one of the words to alter its severity? What is the term when a word is used consecutively twice, with intentional stress placed on the first word, as a means to alter the severity of the word's meaning?  I am not referring to a  (had had) or a  (that that), but to the slightly sarcastic use as demonstrated in shows like Seinfeld. Sample sentences, with emphasis:  I know we're going out to eat, but I am only going to pick at an appetizer because I'm not hungry hungry. Don't wear something so formal to the party; I don't think you need to be dressed dressed.  Of personal note, some of my relatives decided a few years ago to nick-name the term a &quot;Celaine&quot; (a combination of their names) due to their own frequent use of it. Note: This question explicitly requests the term of art used by linguists and English scholars when discussing this phenomenon. This question is different from a  which requests a historical explanation for the phenomenon described by this term. None of the answers to the suggested duplicate provide the term.  The author of the similar question requests the term for the pattern in a comment, but does not receive an acceptable answer. The only mention of an acceptable term is in a comment made by the author of this question, in response to the author of the similar question, directing back to this very question. How do users navigate to Meta? Global keyboard capture in C# application I want to capture a keyboard shortcut in my application and trigger a dialog to appear if the user presses a keyboard combo even outside of the app. Similar to Google Desktop Search's Ctrl, Ctrl to bring up the search dialog.  I have tried using some keyboard hook modules out there that basically use Win32 interop to get this effect but each implementation I've tried ties down the keyboard to some extent to where you start getting weird behaviors when the application is doing something intensive. Such as loading a large amount of data, this would cause the keyboard and mouse to lockup.  I'm looking for a lightweight solution that would allow this to be done without tying down the keyboard and mouse. What will happen if a plane trys to take off whilst on a treadmill?
