A German friend of mine used the term "Lotterleben" to describe to me someone as a "free spirit", although the dictionary translate the term as "dissolute lifestyle" which have a string negative meaning. I want to more of the usage of this term and it's etymology if possible.

Lotterleben definitely has a negative connotation and is used for a dissolute lifestyle (as you said). Depending on the views of the user of the word, this may include promiscuity, wasting the money of others (usually one's parents), drugs, criminal activities, laziness, carelessness about one's own concerns, untidiness etc. (basically everything associated with clichéic students).
The origin should be from or the same as Lotterbett, which describes a bed that is in an rickety, untidy or otherwise low-quality state, or lotterig which is an adjective describing untidiness, bad shape etc. in general. The part lotter itself is derived from Old German lotar, meaning flabby, loose, void, frivolous (see here).
The term "Lotter" is still listed in Duden as a regionally used collquial German word for a tramp or vagabond. It is not used very often any more, but this was different as we can see from entries and quotes in the Grimm's Wörterbuch:
This indicates that there always was a negative connotation to "Lotter" which is also adherent to "Lotterleben" describing a dissipated, and somewhat disordered life style similar to that of a vagabond, or "Lotterbett" for a likewise bacchanal usage of a bed.
Note that regionally we may still find the expression "die Lotter", "die Lotterbank" for a lounge seated next to a stove used for casual hanging out.
According to Grimm the etymology of the Old High German lotar may share an common etymology with Old English loddere which became "to loiter" in modern English.

What to do in Vegas?
Meeting my sister in Las Vegas this week and I don't gamble (neither does she); I like local stuff. Any advice? This would be dining, music, activities.
I don't want to hike, it's supposed to be in the 100° range.

The pinball hall of fame http://www.pinballmuseum.org/ such a cool place to go if you like that kinda thing.
@raremonkey: I grew up in the 70s so, this is perfect!
I need to add this: we are beer enthusiasts. We don't look like it, though ;-)
I've never been but would like to someday. That is why I bookmarked this question from a few months back. It's good for future reference and might give you some ideas. Enjoy your trip!
here for all your beer needs http://beeradvocate.com/beerfly/city/35
@raremonkey: We are going to the Yard House right when she gets off the plane!
I would walk around with a boom box playing the theme from Ocean's Eleven
I realize you said you don't gamble - just keep in mind Vegas wasn't built on the backs of winners!
Bellagio fountains are always a must for me. Not a real time consuming thing to do there, but wonderful all the same. I would also look into some of the clubs if you're into that kinda thing. I thoroughly enjoy Tao and The Cosmopolitan. Great night activity and stunning artists there to enjoy as well. And yes. Beer is a great activity in itself. Not that you have to be in Vegas to enjoy that one haha. Cheers.
Not sure where you are from, but if you live (or used to live) in NYC, be sure to wander around New York New York.
My Mom is originally from the Bronx and she had a ball there. Apparently the decorations were authentic enough that she could always tell what "borough" she was in and she could use her memory of NYC to navigate around NYNY.
Hoover Dam is about 45 minutes or so away. It's very impressive. I recommend the power plant tour.
@barkwoot: You mean, go on the whole Dam tour ;)
M&M World!
@mellielou: Exactly! The tour guide won't let you forget it...
BLUE MAN GROUP! What an enjoyable show. I moved from LV about 3 years ago....I promise you will not get bored.
The light show downtown is nice if you have never seen it.
Bunny Ranch
More great answers here and here. Personally, I liked the fountain shows at the Bellagio, Fremont Street at night and Blue Man Group was an absolute blast!
Spearmint Rhino!
@mkentosh: Bunny Ranch is 7 hours away in Dayton, NV.....prostitution is not legal in Las Vegas.
@johnnys13: Really, take my sister to the Spearmint Rhino? HA! Well, that would be a unique brother/sister outing. How are they about taking pictures?
For free stuff, I'd second the Fountains at Bellagio. You will have to queue up early to get a good place to stand (at least 10 minutes, sometimes 15), but it is great to watch. They have a playlist online, but they don't say what is going to be played when, in case you want to see one particular piece.
There is a new outdoor show at Treasure Island, I haven't seen it, so I can't comment. The volcano at Mirage is worth a look, too.
you'll be shocked to learn that i am from vegas.
boy i don't miss the heat.
local? woefully uncommon. but there are a few things.
do you like sciencey stuff? try the atomic testing museum.
do you like thai food? doesn't matter. go to lotus of siam. a james beard award-winning thai restaurant? come on now.
do you like farmer's markets and artisan foody bits? there are events way up in summerlin (tivoli square).
the weekly has a good calendar of local-oriented stuff. check it.
give my regards to jose the bartender, if you see him. tell him mommy's coming home soon.
Just to keep you all updated (we've been busy), we saw this:

Immunization is one of the most cost-effective ways to save lives – preventing over 2 million child deaths each year. With the recent introduction of new vaccines, countries need to spend US$60 or more per infant to fully immunize, far more than what is traditionally spent on such programs in low-income countries. As vaccine science advances, nations must adapt their vaccine policies and mobilize more resources. The Sabin Vaccine Institute's Sustainable Immunization Financing (SIF) program highlights the efforts of national institutions and lawmakers in this area.

WACO (October 11, 2012)--The Heart of Texas CROP Hunger Walk Sunday hopes to raise $5,000 to help end hunger and poverty.
More than $4,000 was raised in last year's walk.
The event will take place at Bledsoe-Miller Park on Martin Luther King Blvd at 3 p.m.
Registration is scheduled for 2 p.m.
The 3.2-mile route will go up the Brazos River Walk to the Herring Avenue Bridge and across, down through the Pecan bottoms of Cameron Park, to the Washington Street Bridge and back to Bledsoe-Miller Park.
A shorter "Golden Mile" route will also be available to take.
CROP Hunger Walks are held in more than 2,000 cities across the nation.
The action of walking empathizes with those who walk long distances to find food and water.
Proceeds will go to Church World Service and Caritas of Waco.

A Colorado student space research consortium led by the University of Colorado Boulder teamed up with a Virginia space consortium led by the University of Virginia this week to help aspiring rocket scientists from around the country learn how to design, build and fly payloads.
The program allowed more than 120 students and educators from around the country to delve into the world of rocket science June 15-21 during Rocket Week at NASA's Wallops Flight Facility on Virginia's Eastern Shore. All participants -- including 10 CU-Boulder students -- were present for a sounding rocket launch carrying various experiments developed by students that successfully lifted off June 20 at 5:30 a.m. EDT.
Activities during the week included a "RockOn!" workshop for 50 university and community college-level participants led by Chris Koehler, director of the Colorado Space Grant Consortium, or COSGC. RockOn! introduces participants to building small experiments that can be launched on suborbital sounding rockets and supports a national program known as STEM that uses classes in science, technology, engineering and mathematics to improve the nation's competitiveness in technology.
"Working with NASA, we have developed a step approach to expand the skills needed for students to enter careers in STEM," said Koehler of CU-Boulder's aerospace engineering sciences department. "RockOn! is the first step, followed by RockSat-C and then RockSat-X. Each step is technically more challenging than the previous one, allowing the students to expand the skills needed to support the aerospace industry."
The RockOn! participants built standardized experiments that were launched Thursday on a NASA Terrier-Improved Orion suborbital sounding rocket. The 35-foot-tall rocket flew to an altitude of about 75 miles. After launch and payload recovery, the participants began conducting preliminary data analysis and discussing their results.

I want the meaning of the business jargon that says "big hitter".
Sign up
- Anybody can ask a question

A "Big Hitter" is a very experienced or talented person, this is metaphor drawn from baseball.
I guess "big hitter" is "a best selling product or service".
This is what the Urban Dictionary says:
Big Hitter (1): one who carries a lot of weight and influence in the work that he/she does. A big hitter is noted for his respect among clients and the industry that he serves. This term is often used in investment banking and sales when referring to a top money-maker or deal-closer.
Eg: When the year-end numbers came in at Goldman, it was obvious that the big hitters in the healthcare M&A group would be well compensated.
Big Hitter (2): The man, one who is a straight up "playa- playa". One who cannot be touched. One who laughs inside at those who are unequal in the intellectual thought process. One who has a fat knot of cash in his pocket, or a fat accounts receivable with an extremely low day sales outstanding. One who can snap his fingers and have the world at his feet. One who can wine, dine, and 69. One who makes music that sounds like money. One who always have a big ole' stash of the best headies.
Eg: Damn, Adam is really a big hitter.

NIMBYs enter fray over safety
The "national conversation" Americans demanded after the Dec. 14 Sandy Hook Elementary School massacre is fast turning into a diatribe hinged — in some instances unhinged — on government "doing something," no matter how meaningless or expensive.
Increasingly, proponents of stricter gun laws and "mental-health reform" claim their demands are rooted in "common sense," a strategy that attempts to pre-empt reasoned debate that surely would unmask them as counterproductive, unaffordable, unenforceable or useless. When the cost of their proposals is challenged, the do-something crowd quickly deploys its "if-it-saves-one-life" excuse and demonizes its critics as enablers of future mass shootings.

OK, I want to preface this article by saying that it is more or less an angry rant at the match engine and anyone who thinks that it is without flaws and wants to lambast me for being tactically inept should probably stop reading now, as I'm a sensitive young man.
I have been playing football management simulations for many years, dating back to Premier Manager 98. I am 20 years old, I watch a lot of football, and read a lot on football tactics, especially concerning this game which has been the bane of my existence for years now. OK thats a bit strong, I still love the game and am hopelessly addicted to it, but never have I played a more frustrating game in my life. I began playing the FM series when 06 came out and have bought every one since. In the time I have been playing, I have meticulously studied everything I can get my hands on that tries to explain the match engine and tactical system used in FM and frankly, it needs some SERIOUS work. I know people will dismiss my concerns as incorrect tactics and I'm sure that has a part to play in some of the frustrating losses and draws I suffer, but that is not the end of the story.
I am a Man Utd fan and as such, usually choose them to manage. Because they are an excellent football team, I have no trouble in attracting some fantastic players to come and play for me, pretty much anyone good on the game has played for me at some point. And yet, I always come across teams who can eek out a result against me by essentially violating the laws of the game. The number of games where I have succumbed to defeat because a mediocre side puts away its only shot on goal whereas my world class players spoon effort after effort harmlessly over the bar, or have been beaten by a 35 yard banana shot by a full back with a long shot stat of 9, or have been foiled by a distinctly average goalkeeper violating the laws of physics 6 or 7 times in a game (damn you gomes, scott carson, robert green etc!) must be well into the thousands. I am not claiming that these things do not happen in real football, but simply that they should happen less often, especially when the players missing one on ones for you are of the standard of Cristiano Ronaldo, David Villa or Lionel Messi. There are games where, no matter what I try tactically, I will be denied a win despite a vastly superior shots on target and possession ratio. People argue against the existence of AI advantages, but I know I am not alone in having defensive howlers cost me a game or talentless hacks score the goal of the season.
I find that the frustrating matches are pretty cyclical, with a rough patch of form coming every season around november, and then again in february. I browsed forums and websites for the game ceaselessly, trying to find out where I was going wrong, and why I couldnt cut these kind of games down to a bare minimum, but after years of this I am forced to accept that the game is simply biased towards the AI. This may sound childish but whatever, I dont care, Im angry and I dont think that the match engine should have so many people championing it when it is clearly flawed. I understand that it is no easy task to create a perfect working simulation of a football match and that in technical terms, the match engine is an absolute revelation, but I am just so fed up of watching my team waste chances and lose games that any other team would win easily. Tactics are an important part of football management obviously, but often the game seems to be a little TOO demanding on the accuracy of your tactics. Put one slider too far to the side and crap teams will tear through you like Barcelona. Its unreasonable. Heroic comebacks, super keepers and incredible long shots are commonplace for the AI, but a lot rarer for the human player to achieve. Im not saying to cut them out of the game, but please, for the love of god SI, for the sake of my sanity, please scale them back.

I want to know what aspects in VPS hosting packages are related to performance for the website which will make it faster in loading for the end useres. And does RAM really matter?

There are either too many possible answers, or good answers would be too long for this format. Please add details to narrow the answer set or to isolate an issue that can be answered in a few paragraphs.If this question can be reworded to fit the rules in the help center, please edit the question.
Here are the main ones in order of best improvement for time spent. Some of these will be more of a bottleneck depending on what data you're dealing with.
Front End: There are easy wins on the front end. Cut down the number of requests with image sprites and aggregating css/js files. Make sure gzip and cache headers are being used.
Hardware: Hardware can be cheap compared to your time. Throw more ram at the problem. Perhaps put your database on another server to cut down disk io.
Static Files:
Put static files on another domain and don't use cookies. You could use static.mydomain.com. It helps to serve these with a light weight server like nginx, this will cut RAM usage a lot.
Server side caching: Setup a reverse proxy, it's much more efficient to have Nginx serving pages to slow mobile connections than have a heavy apache process waiting idle for the response to finish.
Memcached is an easy way of caching things in memory for fast retrieval.
Database Tuning: Keep track of what queries are running slow. Add indexes on the columns you are using. Cut down the number of joins by denormalising where appropriate. You'll need to put the database on a second server at one stage. A lot of RAM can help as the indexes can then be kept entirely in RAM.
If you're interested in clustered hosting I would look at some of the presentations from facebook and youtube, wikipedia engineers on how they've done it.
edit some videos: Youtube scaling: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-6304964351441328559# Django/General Scaling workshop: http://python.mirocommunity.org/video/1689/pycon-2010-django-deployment-w
Also one thing I may have forgot was if you have search a dedicated search engine like Solr/Sphinx can help.
In my experience RAM makes more difference with databases/datastores than with webservers.
Unless you have a complex web application, go for processing power since that would impact performance more than memory!
Edit> I base my experience working with seperate web- and database servers. The web server hardly used any memory while the database server had to be configured so that the RAM basically was a RAM-disk.
With processing power I mean what CPU you are using; processing speed, number of cores. If you have a database on the same VPS then you can consider to add more RAM since that would impact it's performance.
If you're starting out, it really doesn't matter anyway because you need the traffic first anyway. Only when the site is becoming slow and unresponsive is when you should worry about optimization.
That varies hugely depending on what you are going to run on the server.
For a web server you only need a reasonable amount of RAM, it doesn't make a big difference to use more. For a database server more RAM is better, there is really no upper limit until you have room in memory for caching all data in the databases and all common results.
The factors that makes a site load faster are generally:
The factors that makes a site seem to load faster are more complex, some important are:
RAM matters hugely.
The usual suspects apply: how many cores are on the machine, the speed of the cores, the number of VPS sessions, the number of concurrent website users, etc.
I would guess that more RAM is probably the most significant first thing you can do to increase performance. RAM affects your ability to cache, your ability to serve pages; RAM affects everything.
RAM is most important but you also look at things like using a CDN for scripts on your site such as jQuery to remove the load from your server serving them and make sure everything (css/javascript/images) is compressed as much as possible.
There are hardware and software aspects:
Hardware: A starting point is going to be a single server with capable hardware - lots of RAM, multi-CPU system, high performance disks, multiple disks (separate OS, swap and data disks), multiple network cards (lots of incoming connections). Once you're beyond one large machine, you're going to be looking at multiple machines and load balancing solutions. Splitting out the database to a separate server with tons of RAM will help to a degree, but you'll soon need to add additional web servers.
Where to invest depends on your web application and its' usage profile - measure the performance, response, utilisation, etc, and scale accordingly.
After this, you're going to be looking to spread servers around the globe, perhaps leveraging Content Distribution Networks to capitalise on their setup first.
Software: Proper server caching settings for the pages you serve will make a massive difference to your users and your bandwidth costs. Modern web browsers can cache all the JS and images that your site has. If you can structure your site to be as cache-able as possible, with the least number of dynamically-built pages, the better.
Use the Developer Tools in your browser to explore a popular site and see how they achieve great response.
you can also use a tool like https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights

The 7 Most Idiotic Corporate Temper Tantrums
If you run a company, it's inevitable you're going to get criticized. But you don't care, you've got your successful business, power and millions of dollars. You can just let those angry words roll right off you. Right?
Well, you could do that, or you could throw a tantrum like an angry toddler. For instance...
#7. Circuit City Shreds Criticism. Literally.
The Incident:
Cracked's inferior, still-printed-on-dead-trees competitor MAD Magazine ran a parody of a Circuit City circular back in August 2008. Circuit City happened to be circling the drain at the time, so they were kind of touchy.
Realizing immediately how many consumers make their purchasing decisions based purely on MAD's advice, Circuit City recognized the situation as a corporate emergency.
The Freak-Out:
Corporate ordered every Circuit City that carried MAD (about 40 of them, out of 700 stores) to destroy every copy of the magazine they had in stock, which we like to think included ripping issues from the hands of crying children in the checkout line.
The Fallout:
Fairly quickly after the story hit the Internet, somebody at Circuit City realized that their bizarre Stalin-esque censorship campaign was about to bring the company more negative attention than MAD's parody ever could. Not such a good thing when the entire company is teetering on the brink of utter collapse.
They apologized almost immediately and offered the magazine's editor a peace offering of a $20 gift card, which would ironically be rendered worthless mere months later.
#6. Burger King VP Uses Daughter as Sockpuppet
The Incident:
An organization representing tomato pickers woke up and noticed something: They were getting paid the same amount for a 32-pound bushel of tomatoes that they were getting paid in 1978. So, they wanted a raise. Specifically, they wanted a penny more per pound.
This made Stephen Grover, a Burger King VP who was in charge of supply chain, a very, very angry man. After all, that'd be sucking away a penny out of every, oh, 500 or so burgers they sell.
So he did what everybody does these days: flamed them on the Internet. Using his daughter's email address.
The Freak-Out:
"The CIW is an attack organization lining the leaders pockets ... They make up issues and collect money from dupes that believe their story. To (sic) bad the people protesting don't have a clue regarding the facts. A bunch of fools!" -- surfaholicx36
The Fallout:
His daughter pretty much threw him under the bus the minute reporters called and asked, and Burger King wound up paying the workers their pennies. As for Grover, who was caught hiding behind his daughter, Burger King did the only reasonable, intelligent thing they could do with such a coward: They promoted him.
#5. Ryanair Vs. Blogger
The Incident:
You only need to know two things about Jason Roe: he hates credit card fees and he likes flying to and from Ireland. While he was poking around the website for European airline Ryanair, trying to figure out a way to dodge the fees, he found a bug that locked all the prices at $0.00. Finding this hilarious, as only website developers can, he reported the glitch on his website. That's when he discovered Ryanair apparently recruits almost exclusively from /b/.
The Freak-Out:
The following comments showed up:
"You are an idiot and a liar!" -- "Ryanair Staff #1"
"You changed some numbers on your own screen tricking yourself into thinking that you could get a free flight, without actually succeeding." -- "Ryanair Staff #2"
"If you would work in your pathetic life on a such big project in a such busy environment with so little resources, you would know that the most important is to have usual user behavior scenarios working rather than spending time on improbable and harmless things." -- "Ryanair Staff #3"
So, the whole "Ryanair Staff" thing, that was probably a joke by some kid, right? After all, if Ryanair employees were going to sneak in and wage a comment war, they wouldn't actually name themselves as Ryanair staff. Right?
The Fallout:
Wrong. After at least three employees called Jason a pathetic delusional retard, Ryanair (which is run after all by highly intelligent people) issued a public apology and fired the losers.
Oh, wait, actually Stephen McNamara from Ryanair said:
"Ryanair can confirm that a Ryanair staff member did engage in a blog discussion. . . It is Ryanair policy not to waste time and energy corresponding with idiot bloggers and Ryanair can confirm that it won't be happening again. . .Lunatic bloggers can have the blog sphere all to themselves as our people are far too busy driving down the cost of air travel."
"Oh, also we make pretty hot calendars."
Well, OK then! We totally feel bad for thinking you were the bad guys there. Oh, and as further proof that Ryanair's PR policy seems to be run by very drunken, angry men, their next corporate announcement was that they'd be charging you a Euro to take a dump on their airplanes.
#4. Ed Felten Wins RIAA's Break Our Code Contest; RIAA Tries to Break Ed Felten
The Incident:
Back in 2001, the RIAA was so, so confident in its SDMI encryption, which implanted a watermark into a music file, that they invited the entire Internet to try and hack it, complete with cash prize. Hey, no way this can come out with them looking stupid, right?
Sure enough, Ed Felten, a computer science professor at Princeton and a computer security expert, took a crack at it and handily stripped out the watermark in three weeks. His prize was a lot of lawsuits.
The Freak-Out:
First, RIAA pretended that Felten's efforts didn't count because it compromised the quality of the audio file, which they hadn't bothered to mention in the contest rules. Felten wasn't too bothered, as he didn't qualify because he hadn't signed the confidentiality agreements. So he went to present a paper on how he'd defeated SDMI, which is kind of his job, and the RIAA nailed him with plenty of lawsuits, a strategy which they'd use to great effect later on vicious criminals like Jammie Thomas.
The Fallout:
Felten counter-sued and ultimately won, presenting his paper while nerds had a laugh about how stupid the RIAA was. The RIAA went off and created a new encryption scheme that was defeated by an obscure method where you draw a circle on the CD with a marker.


text:
Let $C$ be a category with finite limits; that is, for any finite category $D$ and functor $F:D\to C$ the category $\mathrm{Cone} F$ of cones over $F$ is inhabited and has terminal objects (we could turn the morphisms around and call the limit an initial obect, but never mind).
That is, define $$ (A,\phi): \mathrm{Cone} F \iff \phi:Nat(\Delta_A, F) $$ where $\Delta_A(d) = A$ and $\Delta_A(\delta:d\to d')= 1_A$; and for $(A,\phi),(B,\psi):\mathrm{Cone} F$ define $$ \mathrm{Cone}F((A,\phi),(B,\psi)) = \{ f:A\to B \mid \phi_d = \psi_d\circ f\} .$$ A limit for $F$ is a terminal object $(H,\eta)$ in $\mathrm{Cone}F$.
Now there is an obvious forgetful functor $F^\perp: \mathrm{Cone} F \to C$ with $F^\perp(A,\phi)=A$. More: for any limit $(H,\eta)$ there is a co-cone $(H,\chi)$ with $\chi_\phi:F^\perp(\phi)\to H$, the unique one showing that $(H,\eta)$ IS a limit. For any co-cone $(A,c)$ under $F^\perp$, there is by hypothesis a morphism $c_\eta:H\to A$, again by hypothesis making everything commute that should; thus $\chi$ ( $\eta$ (or $H$)) is versal for cocones under $F^\perp$.
I'd like to eventually conclude that $H$ is universal --- that $c_\eta$ is the only thing making everything commute where it should, so that $\chi$ makes $H$ a colimit for $F^\perp$, but from the diagrams, I'm afraid it probably doesn't.
Are there supplementary assumptions that'll make everything work out nicely? Does it work out nicely and I just don't see it?
Or maybe I'm wrong about something!? That'd be OK, too.

I have a very simple question. Can we know about the topology of the underlying space-time manifolds from Quantum mechanics calculations? If the Space-time is not simply connected, how can one measure the effects of this from calculating transition amplitudes in the path integral formalism?
Here is an experimentalist's answer:
One is continually checking calculations, using the full Quantum Mechanical toolkit, with the the data, looking for deviations as hints for new physics beyond the Standard Model. The g-2 of the muon , for example, starts showing some difference between data and theory, not yet statistically significant.
The standard theoretical toolkit assumes simple connections for space time. Thus, any deviations from "classical" calculations are open to interpretation by new theories, which could include not simply connected space time. These new models would have to incorporate all the present agreements and justify the putative new deviations from the SM.
Here I am answering your " Can we know " question. If we see deviations from the classical calculation we can know that something has to give. If it is connectivity of space time somebody has to calculate its effect.
Let us for simplicity consider non-relativistic quantum mechanics of a particle on a spatial, $3$-dimensional, connected (possibly curved, possibly non-simply connected) manifold $M$ in the path integral formalism. Then the Feynman propagator
$$\tag{1} K({\bf q}_f, t_f; {\bf q}_i, t_i)~\sim ~ \int_{{\bf q}(t_i)={\bf q}_i}^{{\bf q}(t_f)={\bf q}_f} \!{\cal D}{\bf q}~ e^{\frac{i}{\hbar}S[q]} $$
in principle carries detailed information about the full manifold $M$, since we should sum over all histories in the path integral (1). For instance, if the manifold $M$ is not simply connected, then the overlap (1) will depend on path-histories that are not homotopic.
How the information about the manifold $M$ can be extracted from only knowing the Feynman propagator $K({\bf q}_f, t_f; {\bf q}_i, t_i)$ is an example of an inverse scattering problem.$^1$
$^1$ Note that these hearing-the-shape-of-a-drum-type problems may not always have unique solutions for the manifold $M$.

I have recently added theme support for post_thumbnails with three new sizes, I wanted to resize all the old images uploaded previously. I have written my own script as follows:
function resizeImages()
require ( ABSPATH . 'wp-admin/includes/image.php' );
global $wpdb;
$images = $wpdb->get_results( "SELECT ID FROM $wpdb->posts WHERE post_type = 'attachment' AND post_mime_type LIKE 'image/%' ORDER BY ID DESC");
foreach ($images as $image)
$fullsizepath = get_attached_file( $image->ID );
$metadata = wp_generate_attachment_metadata( $image->ID, $fullsizepath );
// If this fails, then it just means that nothing was changed (old value == new value)
if (wp_update_attachment_metadata( $image->ID, $metadata ))
echo $fullsizepath . " resized" . "<br/>";
The images that have been uploaded through wordpress work fine, but I have added some of my images by php. The images in question were picked up from our old site with a crawler and added to the database as children of the correct ID. I can retrieve all the images using get_children on the index.php page and on single.php, but for some reason they are not being resized. Can anyone help here?

- Given the set of functions defined on a subset in $\mathbb{R}$ and taking values in $\mathbb{R}$, I was wondering if $O$ as in $f \in O(g)$ is a total partial order? By total, I would like to know if every two functions can be compared by $O$? Is it acting like $\geq$ on $\mathbb{R}$?
- How about $\Omega$, $\Theta$, $o$, $\omega$ and $\sim$? Are they acting like $\leq$, $==$, $>$, $<$ and $==$ respectively?
For definitions, see Wikipedia. Thanks and regards!

The problem:
I want to provide a facebook application as canvas page to user A ('the owner'). If user A is seeing the app via in its profile, the app should exhibit behavior Ba.
If there is a user B ('the visitor') which is visiting the owners profile and clicking to see the app's canvas page in the owner's profile, the app should exhibit behavior Bb according to the visitor's profile. The visitor (user B) does not have the application in its profile.
An analogy would be that an application like bandpage in a band's profile (http://www.facebook.com/hmbmusic?sk=app_178091127385) would have different behavior according to each person visiting the profile.
I've been one day researching stuff fb_sig_user and fb_sig_canvas_user and can not come to a conclusion over if it this possible to do something like this or not.
Is it possible? Any tips?

There was a very, very, very pointless news story last week regarding Olympic gymnast Gabby Douglas' hair. A handful of idiots took to Twitter to complain that her hair looked unkempt. Now any reasonable person reacts to this "story" by not reacting at all, because what an athlete's hair looks like is about as important as what shoes a surgeon wears. In this case, a high and tight bun is standard operating procedure for gymnasts, so I really don't know where the conversation came from in the first place.

Sometimes when I crack eggs, I end up with a bit of shell in the egg. How can I easily get the shell out, as it always seems to evade my fingers?
Use part of the shell you just cracked to scoop it up; it will attract the broken bit.
Also, if you frequently end up with bits of shell in your eggs, you should revise your cracking technique. Eggs should be cracked on a flat surface (countertop or plate) not a sharper surface like the edge of a bowl.
If the egg is going to get mixed up anyway, go ahead and mix it with the shell in there. Then, pour it through a colander (with a bowl underneath, of course).
Also, sometimes just pouring the egg from one bowl to another leaves the bit of shell behind.
I tend to just stab right down with my finger and trap the shell on the bottom of the bowl, then slide out.
But yeah.. refine your cracking technique and you'll find this happening less and less. On average I crack 65 eggs every few days (all at once) when making creme brulee and a couple other things at work. Sheer blinding repetition will make your cracking skills much, much better, trust me.

I'm considering using Google App Engine for an online matchmaking (and possibly ranking, not sure) of users in a (currently hypothetical) RTS game. However, I just read this bad review, which has made me nervous. Which problems have they solved (or are planning to solve), which might be an issue for me, and are there any alternatives?

As it currently stands, this question is not a good fit for our Q&A format. We expect answers to be supported by facts, references, or expertise, but this question will likely solicit debate, arguments, polling, or extended discussion. If you feel that this question can be improved and possibly reopened, visit the help center for guidance.If this question can be reworded to fit the rules in the help center, please edit the question.
Google App Engine uses a NO-SQL data store---you should read up on that concept, and decide if it sounds like a good fit for your needs. From that review, it sounds like that is the main issue the reviewer had with GAE.
There is a certain amount of vendor-lock-in with GAE. You end up writing code to target a specific environment. You could certainly migrate off of GAE in the future, but it would likely require at least some code change.
You should also plan to code import/export features so that you can get your data out of GAE, and into a new system.
Once you understand how GAE differs from a standard environment that you might set up if you were to get a stock linux server or VM, you will be able to decide if it fits your needs. There are some definite advantages to GAE, especially in the cost arenas (you don't need to pay for hardware or infrastructure management until your site get popular, when hopefully it will be able to pay for those costs). Just be sure you do the due diligence and research before jumping in.
I love Google App Engine and its wonderful API *.
Before starting to develop a serious business on GAE, study its documentation and hidden limitations and then decide if your requirements would fit in a platform that, for scaling purpose, imposes several constraints.
My biggest concerns about Google App Engine are:
The Premium service* seems to resolve both of them with:
* I have developed StackPrinter on GAE
The only issue I have with GAE is the Data Store. The vendor lock-in of GAE is also a problem but you can get around it by using Django-nonrel (if you're using Python and Django). Aside from that, GAE is viable because it's fast, can serve a lot of users without fail, and is cost-efficient. It's perfect for startups since they don't risk having to buy their own hardware early on.
It all depends, if you don't want to do lot of coding for base services like caching, emails and all that then you are better off with Google app engine, else you should go with Amazon EC2 or Rackspace.
And yes, not to forget, Amazon EC2 has a micro plan which is free for 1 year starting Nov-1
Check this out : http://www.buzzingup.com/2010/10/amazon-announces-free-cloud-services-for-new-developers/
That review is spot on. I use GAE a lot and it's fantastic for a lot of things. If any of those issues are a deal-breaker then you'll need to move on. If you can deal with those issues then you will have a very scalable application on your hands. I think it may be a good match for your domain, though. If you have any specific questions feel free to ask, just don't try to make bigtable behave like a relational database.
The problem with GAE is that most people don't understand the how scalability on a Google scale works. Google handles this for the developer but this comes at the cost of limiting the tools you can use to build your webapp.
The only way to use GAE is the way Google intended it to. Don't use third party frameworks like Grails or Django as these were never designed to run on GAE. You will end up having problems like the blog post. Just use the GAE frameworks provided by Google and understand the concepts of key-value stores.
Most websites don't have to scale to such a size that limiting your dev-tools and framework choices is effective. Just use a dedicate server or EC2.
There's been a couple of cogent responses from the community to this post - see this one and this one. If you have specific concerns, I'm more than happy to respond to them.

Invest Now; Change Lives Forever
by Jennifer A. Cline, writer/editor-One College Avenue. Photos by Larry D. Kauffman.
Odd jobs – like sharpening drill bits and waiting tables – helped to fuel the Fall 2012 semester for computer aided product design student Benjamin M. Schappell, providing the cash to put food in his stomach and gas in his vehicle for the 40-minute daily drive to campus.
The 20-year-old's schedule – six classes, campus involvement and part-time jobs that have also included landscaping and working in a bucket truck to replace TV lines going to the town of Morris – is not much different from many Pennsylvania College of Technology students working their way toward a degree.
"If college could be paid for in sleepless nights of studying and long hours in the library, I'd have it paid 10 times over."
Emily Carella, '12
Like the near century's worth of students who have come before, today's Penn College students exhibit a rare work ethic. They demonstrate passion for their fields. They invest significant time in study, in hands-on projects that they will soon be touting to employers, and in seizing the opportunities a Penn College education offers.
And all for good reason:
"I truly expect, come graduation, I will be prepared and confident to enter the workforce and quickly settle into a well-paying, secure career," Schappell said.
His assurance lies in the reputation built by those who came before. Since 1914, Penn College and its predecessors have been changing futures. When local adults took courses in the newly opened Williamsport High School building's industrial arts shop – the first of its kind in the state – they learned skills that would help them land jobs with local manufacturers.
As society and its needs have changed, the institution's mission has evolved, from job skills training to a comprehensive college offering baccalaureate and associate degrees.
But some things remain: An investment in an education at Penn College holds tremendous promise. The college's overall graduate-placement rate over the past five years is 95 percent. That means that – even amid a serious recession – 95 percent of Penn College students had a job or were continuing their education within a year of their graduation.
It's no secret that success takes commitment.
"If college could be paid for in sleepless nights of studying and long hours in the library, I'd have it paid 10 times over," 2012 graduate Emily Carella, who was honored several times for her work as a resident assistant, told a group of donors. "Unfortunately, the price of an education is much higher than that."
The estimated cost of tuition, fees, housing, meals and books for a Pennsylvania resident to attend Penn College in 2012-13 was $24,830, plus personal expenses.
The lack of financial resources is a significant challenge for many students. Approximately 78 percent of Penn College students receive some type of financial aid. Yet the average unmet need for a Penn College student is $9,200 per academic year, and the average level of education-related debt for a Penn College graduate is more than $31,900.
In response, as the institution counts down to its centennial celebration, the Penn College Foundation has launched a $3.75 million campaign to raise funds that will be used directly for student scholarships.
"We never want finances to be the reason a student does not receive a Penn College education," said Robb C. Dietrich, executive director of the Penn College Foundation.
What does a scholarship mean?
Watch videoFor Schappell, notification that he has been selected for a Penn College scholarship brings relief and comfort. He has received both the Glenwood Cheslock Industrial Design Scholarship and the Dwight E. Stoltzfus Memorial Trade Scholarship multiple times. He calls them a blessing.
"Let me tell you, 4.0 (GPAs) don't come that easily," Schappell told a group of donors during a recognition event in December. He thanked the group for the boost – both material and motivational – that their financial support provides.
On a more practical level, it means fewer odd jobs and smaller loans to pay back after he graduates.
"When I get the notification that I am a (scholarship) recipient each year, it means I have that much less of a loan to take out, and that's all money I would have to pay back with interest. It adds up!" he said. It was sharpening drill bits and waiting tables that helped to fill the financial gap when he missed a scholarship deadline. "Scholarship money has enabled me to work a lot less outside of class and focus on schoolwork."
He's also used that time to give back to both the campus and the community.
"My education is extremely important to me, and Penn College has provided amazing opportunities for growth," Schappell said.
As a sophomore, he served as the college's first commuter assistant, and as a junior, he served as a peer mentor/tutor in the engineering design/CAD technologies majors, helping fellow students with anything from basic drafting challenges to higher-level calculus. Off-campus, he volunteered his CAD knowledge to develop a mock-up model of the then-proposed Lifland Skatepark to be presented to Williamsport City Council. Council approved the plans, and the park opened near Original Little League Field, not far from campus, in September.
Schappell is not alone among Penn College students pursuing higher challenges and making an impact. School of Hospitality students were sought to prepare food in Churchill Downs' newest, most exclusive dining venue during the 2013 Kentucky Derby. Manufacturing engineering technology students finished in the top six among colleges from eight countries in a four-hour "endurance race" that tested the mini Baja vehicle they designed and manufactured. Likewise, students in graphic design, information technology and construction majors compete nationally and bring home high honors.
Students are building their futures on the foundation laid by their predecessors: alumni who likewise answered challenges and today are leaders in their industries and their communities, spreading the institution's reputation; faculty whose real-world expertise has formed academic programs; and industry liaisons whose knowledge helps to keep academic programs relevant.
By giving to the Penn College Scholarship Campaign, donors make opportunities available to students that may not otherwise be possible. They make a critical difference in the lives of many students and their families.
How to support the campaign
To support the Penn College Scholarship Campaign, you may establish a new, named scholarship, or you may contribute to an existing scholarship fund. Call toll-free 1-866-GIVE-2-PC or give online.
More than 200 scholarship funds are administered by the Penn College Foundation. These funds support various majors, and many are in honor or memory of Penn College alumni, students, faculty and friends.
Your gift to an existing scholarship fund will be a tribute to the individual, family or business that originally established the scholarship. In addition, your gift will help that scholarship fund grow and ensure that it will continue to help students pursue "degrees that work."

1978-1987 Chevrolet C10 Interior Install - An Inside Job: Part Two Curtain Call On The '73-'87 C10 Interior InstallWritten by on April 6, 2011
We left off last month with our hands smack-dab in the middle of the cookie jar installing a ground up LMC Truck interior in a '73-'87 C10. In the previous story, the foundation of the interior was installed, which included the sound and heat barriers, carpet, seat cover and door panels. In this month's installment, the interior will be wrapped up by installing the upper half of the cab. Included in this install is a new dashpad with all the trimmings, a billet steering wheel, and a new headliner with accessories.
When it comes to old trucks that have battled Father Time, you always find common ground among the headliners and dash. For starters, thumbtacks. When it comes to looking up at the headliner, the most common accent one sees is a multitude of rainbow-colored thumbtacks holding inverted rolling hills of headliner in place. Atop the dashpad is usually some sort of carpet liner, hula girl, or even a bobbing head Chihuahua covering up the sun cracks that run rampant. All in all, the sight of an aging cab is one that should be forgotten.
LMC Truck offers an option to the weathered components festering inside. Better news is even though the task of replacing the dash and headliner may look daunting and intimidating, the fact of the matter is things are installed and handled with a matter of screws and clips that would fit in the hand of a second grader! Along with just replacing worn-out interior pieces, LMC also offers several pieces of ornamentation to breathe some youth and vibrancy back into the aging hauler. Things like billet trim, Colorbond, and a billet steering wheel will add a touch of class to the cab.
As the last pieces of the interior are installed you'll notice that nothing outside of the ordinary garage's toolbox is being used to handle the install. Reason being is that everything is prefabbed and installs with simple screws and clips. Beyond the simplicity of the install is that all of the ensuing steps can be performed in a day, largely because the components are manufactured to be direct replacement components. Follow along as we wrap up this installment of a backyard upholstery job. CCT

The dashpad mainly mounts via retainer clips. To insert the clips, lay them perpendicular to the slots in the dashpad and place the small finger (note arrow) of the clip in the front insert. Then, using a counter-clockwise twisting motion, insert the rear flange of the clip into the rear slot.Running along the top side of the dash are square-inch holes (note arrow). These holes are where the retainer clips will anchor. The flipped flange at the front of the clip will slide under the forward edge of the square hole.Place the LMC Truck dashpad in position and line up the retainer clips. Once aligned, push the dash in at a slight angle so the clips can catch the underside of the square holes and then push the dash down and forward into place.The top solely anchors with the clips, however, along the lower edge of the pad there are several recessions. Using the provided self-tapping screws, insert the screws into the recessions, and then tighten the screws into the plastic anchors in the dash.The billet dash trim installs in the insert using the provided screws. Again, the screws will self tap.To install the dash bezel, begin by fastening the bezel to the dash and dashpad by tightening the provided screws. Run all the screws into position before installing the far left screws. Once tightened down, pull the dashpad down into position and then install the far left screws. The dash bezel will hold the dashpad down in its proper place.The billet instrument cover mounts on the face of the bezel. The billet trim shares the upper middle holes of the dash bezel; therefore, begin by inserting the upper middle screws. Next, using a 1/8-inch bit, drill the remaining mounting holes of the trim into the dash bezel and fasten the trim with the screws provided.A quick way to enhance the look of your interior is an LMC Truck polished billet steering wheel with a fashionable black leather wrap and billet steering wheel base kit. Before getting started, be sure the front wheels are turned dead straight.
Next, slide the LMC billet base onto the splined column shaft and reinstall the column shaft nut to secure the base.Set the LMC wheel at the 12 o'clock position and secure the wheel to the base by installing the provided Allen screwsThe LMC truck horn button is compatible with the GM column. Install the horn hot wire to the plug-n-play terminal on the button. Then, insert the hot wire into the column. Provided in the kit is a ground wire. Install the ground wire to the horn button (note arrow) and steering wheel base.With the horn wires hooked up to their appropriate ends, the horn button is installed into the steering wheel by pressing the button in place.The headliner comes preassembled and upholstered. On the backside of the plastic molding are several cutouts (note arrows), such as the dome light, triangular visor mounts and the retaining rail screw hole cutouts. These will need to be cut out with a razor blade.When it comes time to install the headliner, use either an adjustable pole jack, or grab some helping hands to hold the headliner in place. To secure the headliner, install the four retaining rails (each side of the headliner has a matching retaining rail) to the underside of the inner skin.In cases where OEM products are in good shape, but just a little faded, LMC Truck offers Colorbond. Colorbond is a spray-on refinisher that works on plastic, leather, vinyl, and metal for a quick, easy fix. It comes in multiple colors, and it is thin enough to let the natural grain of a subject shine through! In a nutshell it's a quick spray time with a 15 minute drying period that results in a showroom finish. The best part is Colorbond won't crack or peel like spray paint.The A and B-pillar covers were first hit with some Colorbond, and then installed. To install the pillar covers slide the ends of the pillars under the edge of the retaining rails. The indentations in the pillar covers will line up with the mounting holes on the retaining rails for a one screw install.
Next, mount the visors by sliding the triangular mounting pad into the headliner cutout. From there, install the three screws and that's that.The rear dome light base installs via two screws up into the cab. Before installing the base, remove the terminals from the original dome light and relocate them in the new base. Lastly, snap the dome light cover in place.

This is not my field, a friend needs the answer for the following question. Suppose we have a decreasing probability function, $p: N \rightarrow [0,1]$ such that $sum_n p(n) = \infty$. Take the graph where we connect two integers at distance d with probability $p(d)$. Will this graph be connected with probability one?
I see that if the sum is convergent, then we almost surely have an isolated vertex (unless $p(1)=1$), so this would be "sharp". One possible approach would be to take the path that starts from the origin and if it is at n after some steps, then next goes to the smallest number that is bigger than $n$ and is connected to $n$ and to show that this path has a positive density with probability one. Is this second statement true?
I am sure that these are easy questions for anyone who knows about this.
