US sales tax refund for international tourists/visitors?
Can I get US sales taxes refunded for electronics purchased while on vacation?
"Who to follow" or "whom to follow"? has a "who to follow" button on the upper side of the screen. Shouldn't it be "whom to follow"?   suggests that whom is the correct usage in a case like this. The only good way of creating circles in ArcMap is using true arc, (compound curves) but I need to convert those to vertex (densifying) because of a compatibility problem. I need info for geodatabase and SDO_geometry (arcsde)  and yes there is a way. I use:  UPDATE layer1 a SET arctype = 'compound' WHERE has_compound_curves(a.shape) &lt;&gt; 0;   and then using ET Geotools to densify  layer by layer.  But there should be easier way of doing this straightforward in Oracle or ArcMap, and I just want to densify the features that have true arc. I don't want any unnecessary vertices on straight lines and so on.  How can I identify true arcs in ArcMap, and how can I densify them as fast and easy as possible?  Same for Oracle SQL. How can I test for a player wearing specific armor? How can I test for a player that is wearing an iron helmet named "test1" and an iron chestplate named "test2" in Minecraft Version 1.12? I am interested in finding out how confident my model (say Logistic Regression) is in predicting the label of a new data point. For example, if it is not confident, I better abstain from making a prediction.   Logistic Regression outputs probabilities, which gives you a notion that there is confidence in prediction. But in fact, it is not. $P(y|x)$ being 0.3, doesn't tell me that the model is confident in its prediction or not. All, we can say is that it believes 100% that class A is 0.3 and other class is 0.7.  Can we use confidence intervals of LR as some sort of confidence in prediction? E.g., larger the difference between upper and lower bound for a particular data point, less confident it is, and vice-versa?  If not, how can we build confidence in our prediction? Can anybody guide me to some paper or field of study? How can I reset my menus? GR. Einstein's 1911 Paper: On the Influence of Gravitation on the Propagation of Light What are the rules of parallelism? I've been reading a lot about it since yesterday and all I encounter is "They must have the same grammatical form"? What does this exactly mean?  I know how to make parallel sentences with gerunds. The things get trickier when it comes to using modifiers.  For example:     I love using the phone that you bought me and the computer.   On the left side of the conjunction there is a noun phrase that consists of an article + noun + another modifier and on the right side there is an article + noun.  They are both noun phrases but the first one has additional modifier. Is that still considered a parallel sentence?  Another example:     I like to swim and to feel good.   Here on the right side of the conjunction there is an infinitive and on the left side there is an infinitive + complement? Is that parallel? What is the best way to randomize the order of a generic list in C#? I've got a finite set of 75 numbers in a list I would like to assign a random order to, in order to draw them for a lottery type application. $\int f=0$ implies $f=0$ almost everywhere Let $f$ be nonnegative and measurable. Show that $\int f =0$ implies $f=0$ almost everywhere (except possibly on a set of measure zero).  My thoughts. Take a set E with $m(E) \neq 0$. Suppose $f \neq 0$ on E. That means $\int_E f \neq 0$. Since $f$ is nonnegative this implies $\int f &gt;0$. That contradicts the given information, so $f$ must be 0 almost everywhere. I'm travelling from Madrid to Brisbane, but I have a 9 hours layover at Dubai Airport. I do not plan to leave the airport, and the connection is with the same airline (Emirates). I'm from El Salvador.    Do I need a transit visa? Password Reset for Users on a Multisite Subsite Creating or referencing variables dynamically in Sass I am trying to find the name of a direct to TV movie, possibly a 2-3 part miniseries which I believe aired on the SciFi channel in the 90s. I don't remember who starred in it, but the movie opened with an astronaut attempting reentry whose shuttle ends up exploding. He awakes in a large bubble of air in a river and after reaching the surface and swimming to shore, meets several other people, from seemingly many different times throughout history (including one alien, who died on Earth).  Over the course of the movie, we learn the world is the afterlife, where everyone goes when they die. The major plot involves launching a steamboat (built by Mark Twain, no less) to travel up a river to the mountains, where the beings responsible for bringing everyone to this world are.  Does anyone know what the title of this movie/miniseries is? \clipbox of a \scalebox not working properly in xelatex How do I make an HTML text box show a hint when empty? I want the search box on my web page to display the word "Search" in gray italics. When the box receives focus, it should look just like an empty text box. If there is already text in it, it should display the text normally (black, non-italics). This will help me avoid clutter by removing the label.  BTW, this is an on-page  search, so it has no button. Any thoughts on a semidecadian badge for people with five years service and an average of N points per year? Given that Stack Overflow is close to its fifth birthday as a public site, has any thought been given to a 'semidecadian' badge for people who have:   been registered with the site five years (a semi-decade, hence the name), scored more than N points per year on average (where N might be 1000).   The idea behind 'average of N points per year' is to allow slow starters to gain the badge eventually, rather than ruling them out in year 1.  The details are obviously subject to tweaking.  This might be a gold badge (the platinum version would be the decadian badge, with a larger value of N required — and no-one eligible for another 5 years or so).  These would complement the current Yearling badge (which is silver). Should we avoid negative words when writing error messages?
