Beamer, Prosper, or Other Bibliography with BibLaTeX: Do not abbreviate first given (first) name and abbreviate all further given names The first given name of an author or editor in my bibliography should be written out, but all further first names should be abbreviated (initials with a period -- and space if there are multiple first names/initials, see below). I am using style=authoryear with BibLaTeX (v. 2.7) and Biber (v. 1.7).  My bibliography looks like this:     Doe, John Arthur Kyle (2013). The secret life of John Doe.   It should look like this:     Doe, John A. K. (2013). The secret life of John Doe.

I could not find a solution in biblatex.def and firstinits=true abbreviates all first names, including the first one.

Cycles Normal Bake does'nt bake indents that are not tapered I can bake high poly normal maps with a lot of success, however if I try to bake a very simple indentation on a cube with no tapering I get a flat baked normal map, please see the below image to clarify what I mean.

How to add a dot after the section number? I wonder is there any way to change the format of section numbering from 1.1 to 1.1. ? I know this is trivial, but I really need to add one more dot after the section number. Does anybody know how to do that?  Thanks a lot Given that $a$~$\mathcal{N}(\mu, \Sigma)$ and $\mu$~$\mathcal{N}(0, \sigma^2 I)$, Is $p(a|\Sigma, \sigma)=\int p(a|\mu, \Sigma)p(\mu|\sigma)d\mu$ again a Normal distribution? And how to estimate the mean and variance respectively? Thanks a lot! "File Open" dialog is missing sidebar items I'm having the strangest issue since updating to OS X El Capitan. My "Open File" dialogs show the sidebar but all my main (and useful) locations are missing. Take a look at this screenshot.

A couple years ago, it was easy to root any device: Install KingRoot, KingoRoot, or a similar app, hit the large ROOT button, and let it do the rest. After 5 minutes or so, a green "Root Succeeded!" prompt will pop up, and we can choose to keep the root app, or uninstall it and install a clean root manager app like SuperSU/Superuser.  How do they work? Why aren't they working anymore? And if they work, should I use them or not? Sending & Receiving SMS via WiFi Is there a way to send and receive SMS when a cellular signal is not available, but WiFi is?

Evaluate $$ 1 + \frac{1}{3}\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{5}\frac{1}{4^2}+\frac{1}{7}\frac{1}{4^3}+\dots$$  All i could do was to see that $$\frac{1}{3}=\frac{1}{2.1+1},\frac{1}{5}=\frac{1}{2.2+1},\frac{1}{7}=\frac{1}{2.3+1},\dots$$  SO, we should be able to write   $$ 1 + \frac{1}{3}\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{5}\frac{1}{4^2}+\frac{1}{7}\frac{1}{4^3}+\dots=1+\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{1}{2n+1}.\frac{1}{4^n}$$  This is what i could simplify the given question to...   But, this is doing me no good.. I could not go any further..  I would be thankful if some one can help me to clear this.  I would request users who are trying to help me to just give necessary hints but not post it as answer.  Thank You.
