How to change the snapping increment in different units? I would like to know how to change the increments used for snapping transforms.  This would be useful in a number of situations but my problem now is that when I change the units it does not scale the snapping increments to match.  So when holding down ctrl the cube snaps from here:    To here:    I would like it to snap to the 1 foot grid, or possibly any other amount I find useful.  It would also be nice to be able to change the rotation snap as well. Proof by induction on a rooted tree with even number of vertices Let $T = (V, E)$ be a rooted tree with an even number of vertices. Prove by induction that there exists a set of edges $S \subseteq E$ such that every $v \in V$ is incident with an odd number of edges in $S$.  I was wondering if my argument is sufficient to prove the statement above:  Base case: $|V|=2$, there is only 1 edge and both vertices are incident with 1 edge $-&gt;$ $S \subseteq E$.  Inductive step:  Let $|V|&gt;2$, implying that $T$ has at least 2 external vertices. Let us choose two arbitrary external vertices $w,u \in V$. Such vertices are only incident to 1 edge each, $e_w$ and $e_u$. We can say that $e_w,e_u \in S$.   By induction, there exists a set $S$ in $T'=T-\{w,u\}=(V',E')$ such that every $v \in V'$ is incident with an odd number of edges in $S$ because removing 2 vertices from a tree with an even number of vertices maintains the property $|V|=2n$. OpenLayers low resolution and/or shifts in QGIS print composer? I'm having trouble with the OpenLayers Plugin of Qgis and the map composer:  If I create an OSM-background layer and if I want to export this, the OSM-Layer looks perfectly all right in the normal qgis program window. But in the map composer and after export the layer has shifted relatively to my other shape layers (EPSG:32633 - WGS 84 / UTM zone 33N).  The second thing is that the output resolution of the exported osm-layer is very, very poor.   A really bad way of getting around this whole trouble would be to increase the screen resolution and make a screenshot of the map composition window of qgis. But I don't think this would be very professional. It also would cause a lot of pain :)   I'm using Qgis 1.8.0-Lisboa under Linux. The openlayers plugin is version 0.92. What's the simplest way to print a Java array? In Java, arrays don't override toString(), so if you try to print one directly, you get the className + '@' + the hex of the  of the array, as defined by Object.toString():  int[] intArray = new int[] {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}; System.out.println(intArray);     // prints something like '[I@3343c8b3'   But usually, we'd actually want something more like [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]. What's the simplest way of doing that? Here are some example inputs and outputs:  // Array of primitives: int[] intArray = new int[] {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}; //output: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]  // Array of object references: String[] strArray = new String[] {"John", "Mary", "Bob"}; //output: [John, Mary, Bob] When did Captain America learn what happened to Howard Stark? Near the end of Captain America: Civil War we learn that      Howard and Maria Stark were assassinated by the Winter Soldier   and Captain America admits that he already knew.  But how did he find out? I don't recall this being revealed in any of the previous movies, and I can't think of a reason why the characters who already knew would have gone out of their way to tell Steve about it. Why shouldn't we use words such as 'here' and 'this' in textlinks? Over the years of surfing on the web I have found numerous examples of people saying that you shouldn't use the word "here" in a textlink etc. Personally I like the idea of using the word, because it is so straightforward for your visitors to know where to click.  The only reason that I can truly think of is for SEO purposes. The word here doesn't have much value as a keyword as such.  I would like to know some other opinions on why we should/shouldn't use word like "this" and "here" in a textlink. How to use a decimal range() step value? Solder does not stick to tip of soldering iron? Basic question here, but it's driving me insane!  The solder does not seem to stick to the tip of my soldering iron. After the iron heats up, the tip appears black (sometimes on all sides and sometimes on one side), then either it doesn't melt the solder at all, or it I fiddle around with it for a while; it melts the solder, but the solder rolls into itself into a ball and doesn't stick to the tip.  I've seen this many times while soldering before and usually it's solved by cleaning the tip on a soldering sponge or cooling it down and scraping the tip off with a blade, but I have scraped this particular one many times and still it's the same problem: it heats up and gets black, then the solder doesn't stick to it.  It doesn't help that this soldering iron has a very fine tip and I have to use it to solder very tiny chips and wires under a microscope (I'm just starting to learn soldering under microscopes).  Any ideas on what I can do?    PS: Is scraping the tip a bad idea? I have been doing it with my other bigger soldering irons and it seemed to work (at least in most cases) but I am not sure whether it is a good solution or not. What is the explanation of the non-existence of magnetic monopoles? I'm wondering whether I should use the present tense for a descriptive statement but in a past context. For example:     (1) I went to the zoo and saw a giraffe last week.       (2) A giraffe is a mammal with long neck.       (3) It is the first time I see that animal with my own eyes.   Statement (2) is a description of a giraffe in general, not the specific one in the zoo, so is it correct to use is?  Statement (3) is an event that is still true now, so should I use is and see?  I'm not native speaker so forgive me if the question is very obvious to others. I'm trying to install Linux alongside my 64-bit Windows 8 and went into my partition manager to find this structure.    In order to create partitions for my Linux install I need to free up some space. I see that the last partition is an empty recovery partition, as you can see highlighted, it's 100% free.  I was wondering is it okay to just remove this partition seeing as it doesn't appear I'll be losing anything?  Not sure if this helps but this is on a Fujitsu AH532 running Windows 8 64-bit with UEFI. Ellipse formula from points Question: Best way to derive an ellipse formula when given bunch of points (say 60 points which when connected draws an ellipse)?  Background: Using R Momocs library function  which returns confidence ellipse coordinates. Would be nice to abstract those points into a formula.  You can see my ellipse points in the image below;    Any suggestions much appreciated, Thanks How can I disable the "Welcome, Name!" banner notification for Game Center? "put X down to" vs. "put down X to": subjects of verbs with two particles I expect I would have to put down many coats to do the job. ()   One factor to distinguish phrasal verbs from prepositional verbs is particle movement. Phrasal verbs can place the particle before or after direct object, whereas the preposition in prepositional verbs must precede the noun. (Biber et al. 1999)    So, I'm confused when analyzing the fragment "put down many coats to" because I'm not able to distinguish whether "put ... " is a phrasal verb or a prepositional verb. The confusion arises when I read in the Oxford Dictionary of English, under 'put' &rarr; 'phrasal verb', the form "put something down to" is correct.  So, the above sentence would be rewritten as follows :     I expect I would have to put many coats down to do the job.   Am I right? If not, how do I correctly distinguish phrasal verbs from prepositional verbs in the cases, like this one, where there are two particles (in this case 'down' and 'to')? How to dynamically change a web page's title? How to make the taskbar blink my application like Messenger does when a new message arrive? Is there an API call in .NET or a native DLL that I can use to create similar behaviour as Windows Live Messenger when a response comes from someone I chat with? Change paper size in mid-document My document should be letterpaper and my attachments should be a4paper. I had high hopes for the \newgeometry command from the geometry package, but the documentation says      \newgeometry is almost similar to   \geometry except that \newgeometry   disables all the options specified in   the preamble and skips the   papersize-related options: landscape,   portrait and paper size options (such   as papersize, paper=a4paper and so   forth).   Any help is appreciated! Proofs using theorems instead of axioms I'm not sure how to prove these basic theorems in propositional calculus. Instead of using the standard axioms, we're supposed to use:   Deduction Theorem (if $\Phi, \alpha \vdash \beta$ then $\Phi \vdash \alpha \to \beta$),  Reductio (if $\Phi, \alpha \vdash \, $, then $\Phi \vdash \lnot \alpha$), Cut Rule (if $\Phi \vdash \alpha$ and $\Psi, \alpha \vdash \beta$ then $\Phi \cup \Psi \vdash \beta$),  Inconsistency Effect (if $\Phi \vdash \, $, then $\Phi \vdash \beta$ for every formula $\beta$), and  the Principle of Indirect Proof (if $\Phi, \lnot \alpha \vdash \, $, then $\Phi \vdash \alpha$),    as all the axioms can be deduced using these theorems.  I don't really know how to start the proofs without using the axioms:  i) prove that $\lnot(\alpha \to \beta) ⊢ \alpha$  ii) prove that $\lnot\alpha \vdash \alpha \to \beta$  Any suggestions on how to start these proofs or any insight at all would be greatly appreciated!

In BibTeX, I need to cite another entry as a note/comment of a first one, something like:  @article{Paper1, author = {Author A.}, journal = {The Journal of XX}, number = {1}, pages = {4252}, year = {2000}, note = {see updated results in \cite{Paper2}    } }  @article{Paper2, author = {Author B.}, journal = {The Journal of YY}, number = {2}, pages = {1}, year = {2001} }   Could you give a suggestion in doing this?  I think my need is not really fitting to what proposed here:
