We have an opportunity to buy an extra domain that is quite specific to what we do and where we do it e.g. newyorkplumber.com.   This domain will just point to our current business's website url which is our business's name : fooplumber.biz  Does this new domain have any chance of showing up on search results if someone searches for "New York plumber"?  Is it worth while to buy additional pointing / forwarding domains if they are very specific to our business i.e. does it have potential to bring us any additional traffic?
Lets say I have a domain already, for example www.automobile4u.com (not mine), with a website fully running and all.  The title of my "Website" says:    &lt;title&gt;Used cars - buy and sell your used cars here&lt;/title&gt;   Also, lets say I have fully SEO the website so when people searching for the term buy used cars, I end up on the second or first page.  Now, I want to end up higher, so I go to the google adwords page where you can check how many searches are made on specific terms.  Lets say the term "used cars" has 20 million searches each month.  Here comes the question, could I just go and buy that domain with the search terms adress, in this case www.usedcars.com and make a redirect to my original page, and this way when people search for "used cars", my newly bought domain name comes up redirecting people to my original website (www.automobile4u.com)?  The reason I believe this benefits me is because it seems search engines first of all check website adresses matching the search, so the query "used cars" would automatically bring www.usedcars.com to the first result right?  What are the downsides for this?  I already know about google spiders not liking redirects, but there are many methods of redirecting...  Is this a good idea generally?

How to kill a dragon in Skyrim? Anyone got any tips on how to beat down a Dragon solo? I've managed to get it down to 3/4 health, but keep running out of potions and getting owned.  I tend to whittle it down with bow from cover, then hit it with akimbo Lightning Strike which is awesome btw. Then poison and some sword.  I can't see a way to achieve this without having about 1000 points of stamina to run away from it when it does a swooping breath attack which seems to track you no matter what way you go.  Any advice please? This is for fighting them out in the open, "wild dragons" if you will. Graviational Lensing Data Can anyone provide me with (or point me to) real life gravitational lensing data that I can plug in to the first equation on this page (the standard lensing equation):   together with the luminous mass and distance to the galaxy(s).  I've looked for papers online and have not found any simple data that can be readily plugged in to the equation (I am not familiar with the details of how exactly the lensing is measured and have gotten lost in the mountains of data in the papers).  Thanks Are "white" and "black" ever capitalized when referring to people? Best way to extract a subvector from a vector? Suppose I have a std::vector (let's call it myVec) of size N.  What's the simplest way to construct a new vector consisting of a copy of elements X through Y, where 0 &lt;= X &lt;= Y &lt;= N-1?  For example, myVec [100000] through myVec [100999] in a vector of size 150000.  If this cannot be done efficiently with a vector, is there another STL datatype that I should use instead? Photoshop To CSS: How do you translate Fill to CSS I have a content box in photoshop with the background color #bc0018 with a 65% opacity and 50% fill.  I am able to translate the backgroundcolor and opacity part to this, but without the 50% fill the backgroundcolor looks different.  .content-box {     background-color: rgba(188, 0, 24, 0.65); }   Any suggestions on also getting the proper "fill" in CSS?  EDIT  I did just divide the opacity by half and it appears to achieve the same effect as a 50% fill. Still, I would love to hear how other people do this? I definitely don't want to create an image just for this.  .content-box {     background-color: rgba(188, 0, 24, 0.325); }   Thanks! Gravity as a gauge theory Currently, (classical) gravity (General Relativity) is NOT a gauge theory (at least in the sense of a Yang-Mills theory).   Why should "classical" gravity be some (non-trivial or "special" or extended) gauge theory? Should quantum gravity be a gauge theory?  Remark: There are some contradictory claims in the literature to this issue. To what extent gravity is "a gauge" theory?Obviously, GR is not a YM theory. So, why do some people say that gravity "IS" a gauge theory? I found this question relevant, e.g., then we handle GR in the Einstein-Cartan theory or any other theory beyond GR, like teleparallel theories or higher-derivative gravitational theories. So I think it could be useful to discuss the "gauge flavor" of gravity here. How can I generate a sin wave with power law noise? What is the optimal path between $2$ fixed points around an invisible obstructing wall? Every day you walk from point A to point B, which are $3$ miles apart. There is a $50$% chance each walk that there is an invisible wall somewhere strictly between the two points (never at A or B). The wall extends $1$ mile in each direction perpendicular to the line segment (direct path) between A and B, and its position can be at any random location between the two points. That is, it can be any distance between A and B such as $0.1$ miles away from A, $1.5$ miles away, $2.9$ miles away.... You don't know if the wall is present or where it is until you walk into it.  You must walk around the wall if present as there is no other way to circumvent it.  Assume the wall is negligible thickness (like a force field), all ground is perfectly flat, and the y coordinates at both A and B are $0$ (although I don't think the optimal path will change much if they weren't).  What strategy minimizes the average expected walk distance between A and B?  How do we know for certain this strategy yields the shortest average walking distance?  To get the $100$ bounty points, I would like a convincing argument from you as to why you feel your solution is optimal and cannot be beaten.  For those of you using computer simulation, anything reasonably close to optimal is a candidate for the bounty.   Can anyone beat the optimal solutions submitted so far?  There are still a few days to try.  Even a slight beat (if not due to roundoff error or some other error) would help prove previous solutions are non-optimal.  You can just use the table of $31$ points (x-y coordinates) and compute that path length and then if you can find better then I will accept that answer.  I think by Sunday night I may have to award the bounty otherwise it may get auto-awarded. Unable to Change Apple ID and password I have tried repeatedly to change my Apple ID and password without success. I have followed all of the directions trying both my emails and asked for new passwords----no luck whatsoever. Better understanding of Drupal behaviors I read about Drupal behaviors today, and I tried writing the following code.  (function ($) {    Drupal.behaviors.mymodule = {     attach: function (context, settings) {       $('#mymodule_id', context).change(function () {         alert('Handler for .change() called.');       });     }   };  }(jQuery));    Is Drupal.behaviors.mymodule the namespace? What are the context and settings parameters passed to the Drupal behavior? Is this the equivalent of document.ready()?   Can I attach any number of functions?  Can I define JavaScript functions which will be called somewhere? ${!FOO} performs a double substitution in bash, meaning it takes the (string) value of FOO and uses it as a variable name. zsh doesn’t support this feature.  Is there a way to make this work the same in bash and zsh?  Background:  I’ve got a list of environment variables, like  PATH MAIL EDITOR   and want to first print the variable names and afterwards their values.  This works in bash but not zsh:    for VAR in LIST do         echo $VAR         echo ${!VAR} done   It should be somehow possible “the old way” with eval, but I can’t get it to work:  for VAR in LIST do         echo $VAR         echo `eval \$$VAR` done   I’m never going to understand why I can’t simply do arbitrary deep substitutions like ${${VAR}} or even ${${${VAR}}} if need be, so an explanation for that would be nice, too. number of ways to make $2.00 How many different ways can you make $2.00 using only 1 cent, 5 cent, 10 cent, and 25 cent pieces, and 1 and 2 dollar bills (there are 100 cents in a dollar)? I have worked out an equation:  $$p + 5n + 10d + 25q + 100l + 200t = 200$$  Where all variables are non-negative integers. But I don't know what to do from here to figure out how many different sets of non-negative integers there are that satisfy this equation. What do I do next? nameref (hyperref) evaluating counter instead of section name What's the proper way to reference a section with a counter in the title?

I have an app that's been out for a couple of weeks. Its not exactly selling like hot cakes yet, but I'm pretty sure I've gotten a rating or a review by now. But nothing shows when viewing either in iTunes or directly on the AppStore on the iPhone.  Is there a standard delay as to when ratings/reviews show up, that Apple imposes, especially for new apps? Or do you think there is some problem with Apple's system? Cancellation of Direct Products No secondary button (right click) on touchpad I'm experiencing a serious problem with the new Ubuntu 18.04:  System Dell XPS 13 with a freshly installed Ubuntu 18.04 LTS.  Problem description The touchpad provides only primary button (single click and double click), but no secondary button. In particular, when using the "test Your Settings" option in Settings -> Devices -> Mouse &amp; Touchpad, any click on the touchpad is signaled as primary button, no matter where I click (left or right side of the touchpad). This remains the case even after I change the Primary Button from Left to Right (in Settings -> Devices -> Mouse &amp; Touchpad -> General).  In comparison, an external mouse connected to my laptop (via usb) works fine: it provides both primary and secondary buttons with sides corresponding to the choice of Primary Button (in Settings -> Devices -> Mouse &amp; Touchpad -> General).  This may be related to   Any ideas?  Update: Meanwhile, I found out that in addition to the solution proposed by EntropyWins, one can also control this touchpad behavior via the Tweaks tool (a.k.a. gnome-tweaks) under Keyboard &amp; Mouse -> Touchpad -> Mouse Click Emulation. In any case, as EntropyWins explains in his answer, this is not a bug. Installing Broadcom Wireless Drivers I'm having serious problems installing the Broadcom drivers for Ubuntu. It worked perfectly on my previous version, but now, it is impossible.   What are the steps to install Broadcom wireless drivers for a BCM43xx card?
