It is written everywhere that gravity is curvature of spacetime caused by the mass of the objects or something to the same effect. This raises a question with me: why isn't spacetime curved due to other forces or aspects of bodies?  Why isn't it that there are curvatures related to the charge of a body or the spin of particles or any other characteristics? Why are my textures pink? Basically, I applied my textures by taking each individual object, unwrapping it in the uv editor, then opening up an image in the uv editor and it would apply the texture in the 3D editor. However, when I render my project none of the textures appear and everything looks odd. I don't know how to set up the images properly with the bee.  For example, here's the uv layout image for the bee's Cube.001:     How do I get that applied properly to the Cube.001 in my project?  Here is   Everything appears purple if the images aren't there and I don't know how to fix that either. Which "mean" to use and when? So we have arithmetic mean (AM), geometric mean (GM) and harmonic mean (HM). Their mathematical formulation is also well known along with their associated stereotypical examples (e.g., Harmonic mean and it's application to 'speed' related problems).  However, a question that has always intrigued me is "how do I decide which mean is the most appropriate to use in a given context?" There must be at least some rule of thumb to help understand the applicability and yet the most common answer I've come across is: "It depends" (but on what?).  This may seem to be a rather trivial question but even high-school texts failed to explain this -- they only provide mathematical definitions!  I prefer an English explanation over a mathematical one -- simple test would be "would your mom/child understand it?" If I change the password for the root user is that going to automatically change the password for the user account?   I found this link for root:    How do I change the user account password? What are the scope restrictions for setting shopt extglob. and other options? My non-interactive bash shell has extglob off. I would like to turn it on in the statement immediately before a command, but I have noticed that when shopt -s extglob is within an if .. then .. else block, it somehow does not register.   The following extglob-dependant command is not valid: syntax error near unexpected token '('.     Where can extglob be set, and why is there a restriction, at all? Does this apply to other options?  ... GNU bash 4.1.5     This works:    shopt -s extglob if true ;then     touch a.bcd; ls a.@(bcd) fi   This fails:    if true ;then     shopt -s extglob     touch a.bcd; ls a.@(bcd) fi ... line 17: syntax error near unexpected token `(' ... line 17: `touch a.bcd; ls a.@(bcd)' I'd like to do something like this to tick a checkbox using jQuery:  $(".myCheckBox").checked(true);   or  $(".myCheckBox").selected(true);   Does such a thing exist? Notation question: $\ll$ How does the Commander interact with Banishing Light or Oblivion Ring? What happens if a commander is sent to the command zone via  and then enchantment is destroyed? Can the commander return to the battlefield from the command zone?.  I think that  would not allow that to happen. Limit $\lim_{n\to\infty}\left(1-\frac{1}{3}\right)^2\left(1-\frac{1}{6}\right)^2\cdots\left(1-\frac{1}{\frac{n(n+1)}{2}}\right)^2$ How can I find the following limit :$$\lim_{n\to\infty}\left(1-\frac{1}{3}\right)^2\left(1-\frac{1}{6}\right)^2\left(1-\frac{1}{10}\right)^2\cdots\left(1-\frac{1}{\frac{n(n+1)}{2}}\right)^2$$There are four options $(a)\frac1{3}(b)\frac1{9}(c)\frac1{81}(d)0$ Thanks! Comparing areas in scanned historical land use maps using QGIS? Using Illustrator CS6 to create shape out of multiple paths Analogous results to Euler's theorem Fermat's little theorem and its generalization, Euler's theorem holds for pair of relatively prime integers. Are there any analogous results for not relatively prime integers ? Thanks in advance. I'm thinking about buying the new MacBook Pro with 4 USB-C ports.  I want to attach two screens, mouse and keyboard and ethernet to the MacBook Pro while using the fewest number of USB-C ports possible.  So what I need is an adaptor with:   two DP or HDMI ports (or one DP port with daisy chaining support) two or more USB ports an ethernet port   Best case would be a hub to which all devices are connected with a single connection to the MacBook Pro, including power supply. Worst case if attaching the MacBook Pro to the devices would require me to use all four of USB-C ports.  Given the answers up to far, I can tell that:   Daisy chaining might or might not work with the MacBook Pro (since it requires DP1.2 which is supported by the graphics chipset, but it's uncertain if it's supported by the MacBook Pro itself) I can attach the monitors with two cables as a last resort, leaving me with two ports for the remaining peripherals.   What I still don't know:   Would daisy chaining work with a hub or does it require the first monitor to be directly attached to the MacBook Pro? Does some kind of hub exist supporting attachment of all listed devices with a single upstream connection to the MacBook Pro? How to find the number of automorphisms on $\mathbb Z_2\times \mathbb Z_4$ Well, I was trying find out the number of group homomorphisms from $U(20)$ onto $U(15)$ which I reduce to the problem of finding the number of automorphisms for $\mathbb Z_2\times \mathbb Z_4$. But don't know how shall I proceed.   Any help will be appreciated. How to split algorithm2e over two pages What new capabilities do user-defined literals add to C++? introduces  which will allow the introduction of new literal syntax based on existing literals (int, hex, string, float) so that any type will be able to have a literal presentation.  Examples:  // imaginary numbers std::complex&lt;long double&gt; operator "" _i(long double d) // cooked form {      return std::complex&lt;long double&gt;(0, d);  } auto val = 3.14_i; // val = complex&lt;long double&gt;(0, 3.14)  // binary values int operator "" _B(const char*); // raw form int answer = 101010_B; // answer = 42  // std::string std::string operator "" _s(const char* str, size_t /*length*/)  {      return std::string(str);  }  auto hi = "hello"_s + " world"; // + works, "hello"_s is a string not a pointer  // units assert(1_kg == 2.2_lb); // give or take 0.00462262 pounds   At first glance this looks very cool but I'm wondering how applicable it really is, when I tried to think of having the suffixes _AD and _BC create dates I found that it's problematic due to operator order. 1974/01/06_AD would first evaluate 1974/01 (as plain ints) and only later the 06_AD (to say nothing of August and September having to be written without the 0 for octal reasons). This can be worked around by having the syntax be 1974-1/6_AD so that the operator evaluation order works but it's clunky.   So what my question boils down to is this, do you feel this feature will justify itself? What other literals would you like to define that will make your C++ code more readable?    Updated syntax to fit the final draft on June 2011 I am trying to draw the below given figure. Please help me to plot it in Tikz. I am only able to plot concentric circles. . I would like to have different colors in between different circles. Also, the text should be along the curve. The arrow in between the two concentric circles does not have to overlap with the circle on the right hand side.  I would be grateful if you could help me in plotting this in Tikz. Please let me know if you need more information.
