I have ubuntu 12.04 (original) installed on a server.  How do I upgrade this to 12.04.03? Of all the people we know, in the books, who were sent to Azkaban, the majority are Death Eaters (Dolohov, Lucius, Crouch Jr, Bellatrix and so on) or suspected to be involved with them (Sirius, Stan, et cetera). They were imprisoned for using the Unforgivable Curses, as well as for being accomplices of a seriously dark wizard. What other crimes are Azkaban-worthy, in normal circumstances? I'm looking for anything that's been stated in the books, or on Pottermore (basically, anything 'canon'), or anything one can conclude from information in the books. I think smaller crimes are punished by imposing a fine, but what about bigger ones? Surely murder and torture (i.e. crimes against humanity) aren't the only ones punishable by imprisonment? That certainly isn't the case in contemporary Muggle society. My thoughts Off the top of my head, I can name these crimes:  Being an unregistered Animagus1 That was what Hermione threatened Skeeter with.  Trespass and robbery2 That's how Sturgis Podmore was imprisoned.   Notes  Several of the arrests in the Half-Blood Prince and the Deathly Hallows were made by an authoritarian (if that's the right word on this case) government, in the time of war. They do not count as normal.  I don't mean that there should be an answer to this question, I was wondering if it was ever addressed in the books. I certainly don't expect a list of all people sent to Azkaban, and the reasons for doing so!     1 &quot;Well, yes,&quot; said Hermione calmly, taking a sip of her drink. &quot;Otherwise, as you very well know, I will inform the authorities that you are an unregistered Animagus. Of course, the Prophet might give you rather a lot for an insider's account of life in Azkaban.&quot;  The Beetle at Bay, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix     2 Sturgis Podmore, 38, of number two, ... charged with trespass and robbery ... sentenced to six months in Azkaban.

I'm looking for a C# parser that can be used in C# and give me access to line and file informations about each artefact of the analysed code. Does $E = mc^2$ apply to photons? Select first occurring element after another element I wrote a Table Valued Function in Microsoft SQL Server 2008 to take a comma delimited column in a database to spit out separate rows for each value.  Ex: "one,two,three,four" would return a new table with only one column containing the following values:  one two three four   Does this code look error prone to you guys? When I test it with   SELECT * FROM utvf_Split('one,two,three,four',',')    it just runs forever and never returns anything. This is getting really disheartening especially since there are no built in split functions on MSSQL server (WHY WHY WHY?!) and all the similar functions I've found on the web are absolute trash or simply irrelevant to what I'm trying to do.  Here is the function:  USE *myDBname* GO SET ANSI_NULLS ON GO SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON GO ALTER FUNCTION [dbo].[utvf_SPlit] (@String VARCHAR(MAX), @delimiter CHAR)  RETURNS @SplitValues TABLE (     Asset_ID VARCHAR(MAX) NOT NULL )  AS BEGIN             DECLARE @FoundIndex INT             DECLARE @ReturnValue VARCHAR(MAX)              SET @FoundIndex = CHARINDEX(@delimiter, @String)              WHILE (@FoundIndex &lt;&gt; 0)             BEGIN                   DECLARE @NextFoundIndex INT                   SET @NextFoundIndex = CHARINDEX(@delimiter, @String, @FoundIndex+1)                   SET @ReturnValue = SUBSTRING(@String, @FoundIndex,@NextFoundIndex-@FoundIndex)                   SET @FoundIndex = CHARINDEX(@delimiter, @String)                   INSERT @SplitValues (Asset_ID) VALUES (@ReturnValue)             END              RETURN END Solving a Second Order Constant Matrix Differential Equation Given that $A$ is a constant coefficient matrix, how would one find a non-zero solution to the following equation: $$ x''+2Ax'+A^2x=0 $$ I am thinking this could incorporate systems of linear equations, but I am not sure how to use $x'=Ax$ or $x'=P(t)x +g(t)$ in this situation.   Any hints or suggestions are appreciated. "Compared with" vs "Compared to"—which is used when? Is only one of them correct? Are they used in different situations? Or are they interchangeable? I have created this with cycles:  But the edge between the glowing and non glowing materials is very sharp. The material was manually applied to faces in edit mode. Is there any way I can smooth the edge between them in cycles? How do you change from icon to list view in 20.4 Changing Login Logo After modifying the code in my functions.php file to display a different logo on my login page, I'm getting a blank square instead.  I've added a custom .png image (326x67) to my (child) theme's image folder, and the code I've added to functions.php is as follows:  function custom_loginlogo() {     echo '&lt;style type="text/css"&gt;     h1 a {background-image: url('.get_bloginfo('template_directory').'/images/login_logo.png) !important; }     &lt;/style&gt;'; } add_action('login_head', 'custom_loginlogo');   Could it be a permissions problem (like an .htaccess file blocking the image)? hello everyone I have a little problem, how do I bring up the menu in the circle? when I select another object the menu becomes non-existent Is there a word for people who always act too friendly in order to curry favor with their acquaintances? Is there a single noun or adjective for a person who is always flattering friends and acquaintances, not only to be liked and accepted but, at other times, to curry favor with them as well ?  I'm not looking for regionalisms but a word that will be understood in any English speaking country. When do you use the "this" keyword? I was curious about how other people use the this keyword. I tend to use it in constructors, but I may also use it throughout the class in other methods. Some examples:  In a constructor:  public Light(Vector v) {     this.dir = new Vector(v); }   Elsewhere  public void SomeMethod() {     Vector vec = new Vector();     double d = (vec * vec) - (this.radius * this.radius); } Converting LAS 1.4 to 1.2 LIDAR files were released for major part of Slovenia few months back in zlas format. Decompressed LAS format is 1.4 version. I have tried many options how to generate DEMs and had some success in programs and tools but unfortunately they were all trial versions of license pay versions.  Problem is that I can't open and generate DEMs of LAS version 1.4 in many open and free tools (such as MCC-Lidar).   Can you help me converting LAS from 1.4 to 1.2 in some free tool? Or if it is any other way for LAS 1.4. Prove that $T$ has an orbit of period 3 Git for beginners: The definitive practical guide Ok, after seeing , I have decided to skip to the end and go with .  So what I need is a beginner's practical guide to Git.  "Beginner" being defined as someone who knows how to handle their compiler, understands to some level what a  is, and has touched source control without understanding it very well.  "Practical" being defined as this person doesn't want to get into great detail regarding what Git is doing in the background, and doesn't even care (or know) that it's distributed.  Your answers might hint at the possibilities, but try to aim for the beginner that wants to keep a 'main' repository on a 'server' which is backed up and secure, and treat their local repository as merely a 'client' resource.  So:  Installation/Setup    How do you set up Git?  Try to cover Linux, Windows, Mac, think 'client/server' mindset.         Working with the code          How do you handle binary files (visio docs, for instance, or compiler environments)? How do you merge files changed at the "same time"?    Tagging, branching, releases, baselines    How do you pull a particular 'release'?   How do you resolve conflicts and complete the merge? How do you merge parts of one branch into another branch?        Other   Describe and link to a good GUI, IDE plugin, etc. that makes Git a non-command line resource, but please list its limitations as well as its good.    - Cross platform, included with Git  - Cross platform history viewer, included with Git  - Mac OS X  - Mac OS X history viewer  - Cross platform, commercial, beta  - console GUI for Linux  - GUI for Windows, Linux  - package for Windows, includes friendly GUI  Any other common tasks a beginner should know?     How do I work effectively with a subversion repository set as my source control source?   Other Git beginner's references                 Delving into Git     (and )    I will go through the entries from time to time and 'tidy' them up so they have a consistent look/feel and it's easy to scan the list - feel free to follow a simple "header - brief explanation - list of instructions - gotchas and extra info" template.  I'll also link to the entries from the bullet list above so it's easy to find them later. How can I remove the BOM from XmlTextWriter using C#? Get the index of the nth occurrence of a string?
