Points from point and slope?
How do I find a point a given distance from another point along a line?
Changing plurality in parentheses If a set of parentheses lies between a subject and its verb, and the parentheses contain an substitutive subject whose singularity/plurality disagrees with the original subject, whose singularity/plurality should be chosen for the verb?  In other words, in the following example, should "questions" (and its verb "are") be singular, or should they remain plural as shown?     Many (if not every) questions on this StackExchange are answered.   My intuition tells me that the two words in question should remain in plural forms, since the text in parentheses only interrupts the sentence (and the sentence would be grammatically incorrect if everything in parentheses were removed and the words were in singular form).  On the other hand, when read aloud (assuming one reads the text in parentheses), this has an uncomfortable sound to it, and I've seen others write in what would be the above example's singular-form case, so I'm curious to find out which is correct.  And, thinking about it, I suppose the same question would apply when commas are used in place of parentheses.

How to Disable new terms (free tagging) with Taxonomies? I have a "term reference" field, in a form that uses an auto-complete widget. I want to limit user input to terms in the vocabulary only, and output a message when a user tries to enter a non existing term.  I found the  module. However this does not work with forms that contain a field collection or a field group.  There is also a contributed patch . But I was wondering whether there was a simpler/cleaner solution like a module or maybe I missed an already existing way of doing it with latest drupal and taxonomy versions. Complex polynomial of degree $n$ Should I use the datetime or timestamp data type in MySQL? Would you recommend using a  or a  field, and why (using MySQL)?   I'm working with PHP on the server side. I have rigged up a notch filter from . See below: -     Its the first circuit. Now I am trying to calculate its transfer function. I have calculated two equations, but I need the third one:   (Vin-V2)/(1/SC1) = V2/R3 (Vin-V1)/R1 = (V1-Vo)/(R2+(1/SC2))   V1 and V2 are the potentials at the input of the op-Amp. Is there a good equivalent implementation of strptime() available for Windows?  Unfortunately, this POSIX function does not appear to be available.   - summary: it converts a text string such as "MM-DD-YYYY HH:MM:SS" into a tm struct, the opposite of strftime(). I'm told by smart people that $$0.999999999\ldots=1$$ and I believe them, but is there a proof that explains why this is? Other than portability, are there any other advantages (or disadvantages) to storing apps on external storage? What is charge? I know this isn't the right place for asking this question, but in other places the answers are so awfull.. I'm studying eletricity, so, I start seeing things like "charges", "electrons has negative charges",etc. But I didn't quite understand what charge is. I search a little bit on the internet and found it related to electromagnetic fields, then I thought "negative and positive may be associeted with the behaviour of the particle in the field, great!", but the articles about e.m. fields already presuppose "negative" and "positive" charges. In other places, I see answers relating charges to the amount of electrons/protons in an atom, but if that's right, the "negative" electron is an atom without any protons? What about the neutron? So, my questions are (1) What are charges; and (2) How a particle can "be" electrically charged. What does that really mean? Thanks for your time. I am moving from Malaysia to the US, and planning to bring my desktop computer with me. I plan to pack it in my checked-in luggage. Will the computer risk being damaged? Any precaution should I take to reduce this risk? Will there be any trouble with the airline or immigration about bringing computer? Cartoon: 4 kids transform into video game characters to save the world from a hacker and an evil program There are 4 friends: 2 girls and 2 boys who play video games. A virus program escapes and, with the help of a programmer boy, transforms the world into a video game. But a good program in a white robe turns the four of them into video game characters to save the world.  The evil virus mostly looked like The Tick from the cartoon "The Tick". Big strong guy with muscles but in red spandex. Little head with antenas, BIG chin and evil mustache.  One hero is the typical blonde girl who can scream loudly with a microphone or headphones. The other chick was shorter, more a grumpy type and with her big metal boots she was able to rock / shake the ground. There was also a funny white boy with red hair, he was a cyber archer. And their black-skinned friend, a typical tech guy with maybe one laser eye.  The transformed world has always had a theme: a swamp, a volcano,  space, a cyber city, a sewer, once a pinball machine, and so on. For some game points they were able to summon different vehicles, weapons and reinforcements/buffs.  The story is made up of the usual repetitive events: every day the hacker guy transforms the world or just the city with a wicked program. Summoning new monsters and obstacles for stopping the good guys to defeat him.  But our heroes always win and the evil program comments what a loser he is and the guy get frustrated.  (In the end, they convince the hacker guy that it just using him and he chose the good side then they wiped out the evil program forever.) - NOPE XD  Not Code Lyoko, ReBoot, Linkers, Cyberchasers. There is no 3D; it was fully hand drawn. I think it was American, but was definitely not Japanese and there was no anime-like stuff. I was young when I saw it, i'm live in a foreign country Hungary. So i dont know when was it released, but maybe before 2005. The main group maybe has something "force" in their name. Calculating optimal number of bins in a histogram I'm interested in finding as optimal of a method as I can for determining how many bins I should use in a histogram. My data should range from 30 to 350 objects at most, and in particular I'm trying to apply thresholding (like Otsu's method) where "good" objects, which I should have fewer of and should be more spread out, are separated from "bad" objects, which should be more dense in value. A concrete value would have a score of 1-10 for each object. I'd had 5-10 objects with scores 6-10, and 20-25 objects with scores 1-4. I'd like to find a histogram binning pattern that generally allows something like Otsu's method to threshold off the low scoring objects. However, in the implementation of Otsu's I've seen, the bin size was 256, and often I have many fewer data points that 256, which to me suggests that 256 is not a good bin number. With so few data, what approaches should I take to calculating the number of bins to use? How to tell M2Eclipse to install jar file as a maven dependency If Newton's third law is true, why can we sink in sand? Newton's third law of motion states that every action has an equal and opposite reaction. That is the reason we do not sink into the earth, because when our weight exerts a force on the earth it also exerts an equal and opposite force on us.  But when we stand on quicksand or on fluids we can sink in. How is this possible? Does it not exert an equal and opposite force on us? Or are Newton's laws different in the case of fluids and substances of low densities? NOTE: I would appreciate it if you provided a hint and not the whole solution.  BdMO 2014 Nationals:     In acute angled triangle ABC, considering a portion of side BC as diameter a    circle is drawn whose radius is 18 units and it touches AB and AC side. Similarly,    considering a portion of sides AC and AB as diameters, two other circles are    drawn whose radii are 6 and 9 units respectively. What is the radius of the incircle    of ∆ABC?   The main problem with this  problem is that the figure is incredibly messy.So I drew one circle,and tried getting information from it.I noticed that if $O$ is a centre of one of the above (semi)circles,and if $O$ is located on $AB$, then $CO$ is an angle bisector.Therefore,if we connect all the vertices with the centres,their intersection would be the incentre.Then we need to drop a perpendicular from this point to get the inradius.But that hardly helps us.I have found some similar triangles in the figure.But that does not help me at all.  I have also tried backtracking.I tried to put myself in the problem-maker's shoes and tried to imagine what I would do if I had to create a problem like this.Unfortunately,I couldn't do it..
