I recently had to built a Monostable 555 cct. as per this site :    The cct. is used in a motor vehicle. When the remote control is pushed to open the doors, it sends positive 12V to this Monostable cct. to initiate it and a 3 Amp Power Transistor pulses the siren momentarily to indicatse "unlocking" by audible means.   The issue I have is that Rt and Ct used to time the output pulse is not short enough. I replaced these components to the smallest values I could get, but the output is still "too long". Teh siren makes a "chooow" sound instead of "chow". Sounmds too unprofessional or after-market.  Any ideas to get a short pulse (nearly a few micro seconds) out of this old 555 cct. ? Finding $\tan t$ if $t=\sum\tan^{-1}(1/2t^2)$ I am solving this problem. If $$\sum\limits_{i=1}^{\infty} \tan^{-1}\biggl(\frac{1}{2i^{2}}\biggr)= t$$ then find the value of $\tan{t}$.   My solution is like the following: I can rewrite: \begin{align*} \tan^{-1}\biggl(\frac{1}{2i^{2}}\biggr) &amp; = \tan^{-1}\biggl[\frac{(2i+1) - (2i-1)}{1+(2i+1)\cdot (2i-1)}\biggr] \\\ &amp;= \tan^{-1}(2i+1) - \tan^{-1}(2i-1) \end{align*}  and when I take the summation the only term which remains is $-\tan^{-1}(1)$, from which I get the value of $\tan{t}$ as $-1$. But the answer appears to be $1$. Can anyone help me on this. Show $1/(1+ x^2)$ is uniformly continuous on $\Bbb R$. How to count the number of set bits in a 32-bit integer? 8 bits representing the number 7 look like this:  00000111   Three bits are set.

In the United States, federal law prohibits professors from releasing any student's grades to any party other than the student and any party whom the student authorizes to receive the grades.  One of my professors appears to be violating this law by uploading each student's lab grades in one file, which is accessible to anyone who is enrolled in the class.  Here is my proposed plan of action:   Ask the professor - in private - to post the grades using the online management system the professor already uses for other things.  If the professor doesn't fix this privacy violation, inform the professor that the method by which he/she post grades is a violation of federal law. As a last resort, contact the department dean. I get the following error:     Strict warning: Only variables should be passed by reference in include() (line 18 of /home/sites/dev/theparce/sites/all/themes/parce/block--block--3.tpl.php).   This is the block code which is causing that error.  if ($user_gallery) {   print render(node_show($user_gallery));  // Line 18   print drupal_render ($user_gallery_edit);  } else {   print drupal_render($user_gallery_new); }   Why do I get that error, even if I get all printed as expected?

What harm can be done with a copy of one's passport? In one of the questions on this site, it was suggested the use of  to save a backup copy of your passport, in case you need to proof who you are if your original document is lost.   I like the idea, but what if someone gets access to your Dropbox folders and is able to acquire the copy of your passport.  The same goes for when you leave a copy of your passport at a hotel receptions desk. Once someone has the info printed on that copy, would that make it easier to steal your identity? How many Marvel Earths (Universes) are there? I know that there are at least 3 Marvel Universes:  Marvel Cinematic Universe -    Has all of the main ongoing Marvel movies    (1, 2)  (1, 2, 3)  (1, Age of Ultron) etc    Marvel's Ultimate Universe -    Has the other Marvel movies    (1, 2, 3, Origins: Wolverine, First Class, The Wolverine, Days of Future Past)  (1, 2)  etc       Main comic book continuity This is the big one, it contains         etc     Then there are apparently off-shoot Earths, continuities which deviate from the main continuity (Earth 616).

Further Reading: How to trick a command into thinking its output is going to a terminal Given a command that changes its behaviour when its output is going to a terminal (e.g. produce coloured output), how can that output be redirected in a pipeline while preserving the changed behaviour?  There must be a utility for that, which I am not aware of.  Some commands, like grep --color=always, have option flags to force the behaviour, but the question is how to work around programs that rely solely on testing their output file descriptor.  If it matters, my shell is bash on Linux. Prove that $\mathbb{Z}[\omega]$ is an integral domain How to share worlds between platforms with Minecraft Better Together I have read that with the new "Better Together Update" (BTU) it is now possible to .  However, I am having trouble finding details of how this is supposed to work to determine if it would do what I am hoping it would and therefore whether it is worth my time/money.  I have some saved worlds on Minecraft for XBox One, all done in creative mode.  I am able to import them into what is now just called "Minecraft" which as of the BTU is what is being used to mean the cross-platform version.   Can I now play this same world on my Windows 10 PC?   If I go to the Minecraft web site it offers to sell me the "Java Edition" with the addendum "includes edition for Windows 10".   But from what I have read, anything that has the word "edition" in it isn't the cross platform version.   It's very unclear to me what I would actually be buying here.  If it is possible to open the same world on different platforms, exactly how would I go about doing this?  On the XBox I have to sign in with an outlook.com e-mail address to access my worlds, or my kids' sign-ins to access their worlds, is it the same from the PC? And where would my world be saved?   I have read that XBox saves will be in the cloud, but PC saves will be local, so how can I get a cloud save onto my PC?  And then how can I get it back to the cloud when I am done so I can play it on the console again?  Will there be two copies floating around, making it possible for me to make a backup on my PC?  How will this interact with world editors?  At some point will I be able to start a game on XBox, transfer it to the PC, open it in a world editor, make some changes, and then transfer it back to the XBox?

IF(ISPICKVAL( Examiner_Type__c ="Pending Examiner Status","1","",)) Inner automorphisms form a normal subgroup of $\operatorname{Aut}(G)$ For an arbitrary group $(G,\cdot)$ let $\operatorname{Aut}(G) = \{f: G \to G \mid f \text{ is an isomorphism}\}$ be the set of all automorphisms of the group $G$.

How do you measure pedal axle/spindle size?  Replacement pedals and accessories specify a size like 9/16" or 1/2".  How do I measure my current pedal to see what I need?  Is it just a matter of putting the pedal threads in a caliper and measuring the outer diameter of the threads across the axle/spindle?  Or do you need to measure the solid part, excluding the threads? Common lines between two files
