I notice that my departure and return gate in the Philadelphia airport is not in the international terminal.  Where will I clear customs? Trouble with batch conversion of .png to .pdf using convert In Monopoly, Is it OK for a third party to make a trade with a player who is about to lose? I play with some serious board gamers, but we have neglected Monopoly for a number of years, so our knowledge is mostly based on high school &amp; house rules.  We played last week and enjoyed it, but there was a piece of contention. There are times where we decide that we don't like one of our friends for some reason and don't want them to win (i.e. we landed on their property a bunch, or they refused to make a deal, etc.).  So when player 1 has some property and player 2 lands on it and cannot pay the rent their assets (houses/hotels get liquidated), their property gets transferred to the other player. (Please correct me if I'm wrong.) In this case, though, player 3 "traded" the amount of money owing for a piece of property (way overpaid). In this case they did it so that player 1 would not get the properties. Player 2 had no chance of winning the game (all properties mortgaged, no cash to speak of and many of the other properties with 3+ houses/hotels on them).  To summarize: Is it OK for a third player to purchase/trade property or cash to/from a player who is about to lose? Looking for a Simple Argument for "Integral Curve Starting at A Singular Point is Constant" Let $U$ be an open subset of $\mathbf R^n$ and $V:U\to\mathbf R^n$ be a differentiable vector field on $U$. Let $\mathbf p\in U$ be a singular point of $V$, that is, $V(\mathbf p)=\mathbf 0$.     Then the only integral curve which starts at $\mathbf p$ is the constant curve.   I know that one could simply use the theorem of "uniqueness of integral curves" and in fact adapt the same proof for this particular case.  But is anybody aware of a simple argument for this? Is Cesaro convergence still weaker in measure? Named Credentials - Merge Fields not Resolving How does ownership in fractional shares work? I've been trying to find out some more information about fractional shares, and how they work. I understand conceptually, you own x% of a share rather than x "full" shares, but I'm curious about how such a system is implemented.  As I understand it, in a "traditional" purchase of shares, the role of a broker is to act as an executor on your behalf, and does not hold any assets themselves. In the case of a fractional share, is this then not the case? For example, the broker holds the complete shares, and then just ensures that they keep an internal record of each partial owner in their system? So there would be no external record of partial ownership?  Thanks! How do I run a GUI app via SSH? Explain why $E(X) = \int_0^\infty (1-F_X (t)) \, dt$ for every nonnegative random variable $X$ Is it safe to use the command apt-get autoremove in this particular scenario? Are there any coding style guidelines for LaTeX? I need to calculate the following determinant in order to prove the following equality:  $$\det\begin{pmatrix} a &amp; b &amp; c &amp; d \\ -b &amp; a &amp; -d &amp; c \\ -c &amp; d &amp; a &amp; -b \\ -d &amp; -c &amp; b &amp; a \end{pmatrix} = (a^2+b^2+c^2+d^2)^2.$$  I tried using Gauss-algorithm to get an easier matrix, but I'm not sure if I did it correctly.  Calling the $4$ lines $I$, $II$, $III$ and $IV$, I did:  (1) $II \cdot a$  (2) $III \cdot a$  (3) $IV \cdot a$  After this I did:  (4) $II' + I \cdot b$  (5) $III' + I \cdot c$  (6) $IV' + I \cdot d$  So finally I got the following matrix:  $$\begin{pmatrix} a &amp; b &amp; c &amp; d \\ 0 &amp; a^2+b^2 &amp; bc-ad &amp; ac+bd \\ 0 &amp; ad+bc &amp; a^2+c^2 &amp; cd-ab \\ 0 &amp; bd-ac &amp; ab-cd &amp; a^2+d^2 \end{pmatrix}.$$  I thought this would make the determinant a bit easier, unfortunately I must have done something wrong. Is multiplication with single lines allowed as I have done it?  Thank you very much. Im not familiar with Ubuntu or Linux in general but have succesfully installed dual-boot windows7/Ubuntu on a single harddisk on my private PC. I used the "Install Ubuntu alongside them"-option.   On my work PC I have an existing windows 7 64-bit installation that boots from BIOS firmware on a SSD drive (C:), and have my working data (documents etc) on a partition on a separate disk (D:). I now want to install Ubuntu (v 14.04.3) on the remaining unformatted space on D:\ using with the option of choosing system using GRUB. There are of cause fine descriptions around (e.g.  and ). My question is how to setup the partitions in the "something else"- option during the Ubuntu installation.   In  tutorial they assume that all partitions on the D-drive can be deleted; however I only obviously want to keep the working data on the existing D-partition, and place Ubuntu on the residual space (or part of it) on the D:-drive.  A) How is this ensured ? B) how many partitions should I make (boot, root, home, swap ?)  C) and should boot be made primary, and the others logical ? D) Should I set Device for boot loader installation as/dev/sdb - will this not erase the existing D-partion ? How can I protect my save data from casual hacking? What options are there for saving game data in a secure manner? I'm interested in solutions specifically tailored for C++.   I'm looking for something that is fast and easy to use. I'm only concerned about storing simple information such as   Which levels are and are not unlocked The user's score for each level   I'm curious again to know what's out there to use, any good libraries to use that give me nice, secure game data files that the average player can't mess with.   I just found  here which looks very nice, but it would be great to get some opinions on potential other libraries/options out there. How to delete a non-empty directory in Terminal? There has been some recent behavior change on SE (around July 2015).  I have two accounts I use, one Google openId based for one set of sites (call it Account-A) and another SE login based for a different set of sites (Account-B).  Used to be that I could be logged into one set of sites with the first user and a different set with the other users.    But now I am logged in with the Account-A on Site-1.  When I go to one of the sites I use the other account for and click "log in" under the SE menu, I go to a page where I only have an option to confirm creation of an account based on my Google login.  It does not present a way to log in with an SE account.    How can I log in with my other account here?  (and before you flag this as a duplicate, please ensure the other question is recent enough and that the answer is relevant.  This behavior has definitely morphed over the years... and I am having trouble finding something that is relevant.  For instance this question  simply points out how to merge the accounts which is NOT what I want  .  This question  talks about presenting different user info on each site but that's not what I want -- I want totally separate accounts). Uncertainty principle and multiple observers My understanding is that an observer can measure the precise location of a particle so long as the corresponding uncertainty in momentum measurement is not an issue and vice-versa.    Say there is such an observer, interested in the precise position of a particular particle.  Now, consider a second, independent observer, unbeknownst to the first, who is trying to measure the exact momentum of the same particle without caring about the position.  As a thought experiment, we assume that the two observers are somehow able to access the same particle at the same time in some way without being aware of each other.  Can both observers get their desired results? How do the review limits work? I got the brand new Custodian badge today for reviewing posts. Inspired by that, I reviewed some more suggested edits. Now I ran into a limit:     You have no more suggested edit votes today; come back in x hours.   How is that limit calculated? I made 61 reviews today which seems to be some calculated limit.  I searched for an answer on meta but found nothing helpful. How do I complete "Find the Bitizen"?
