In my country, when someone is sick, they might say they are keeping the bed from running away. That would mean, they feel so sick, they literally stay in the bed most of the day.   Is there an equivalent in English that depicts the humorous nature of this one?
Some conditions require that a person lie in bed all the time until recovered. Is there a name for such conditions or people experiencing them at the moment?   For example,      I am currently &lt;bed sick&gt; and can't help you with your homework.   I tried looking for bed sick but hit a dead end.

Thanks in advance. I am trying to calculate the last two digits of $3^{400}$, but working $\bmod {100}$ is proving intractable. I did the last digit case pretty handily, and now I'm stuck at last two. Does the Black Panther suit give extra speed? So in Civil War, the Black Panther suit seems to give the suit holder some extra speed, because the guy was running as fast as Bucky and Captain America.  So does it give extra speed? If so, how does that work? When reviewing an answer in the low quality queue the question doesn't believe that I have enough reputation to comment.        I can't remember if commenting on the post not actually being reviewed was ever allowed? The probability of two dice summing to k is simple enough, make a diagram of the throws,  $$ \begin{array}{c}  &amp;|&amp;1&amp;2&amp;3&amp;4&amp;5&amp;6\\\hline 1&amp;|&amp;2&amp;3&amp;4&amp;5&amp;6&amp;7\\ 2&amp;|&amp;3&amp;4&amp;5&amp;6&amp;7&amp;8\\ 3&amp;|&amp;4&amp;5&amp;6&amp;7&amp;8&amp;9\\ 4&amp;|&amp;5&amp;6&amp;7&amp;8&amp;9&amp;\color{green}{10}\\ 5&amp;|&amp;6&amp;7&amp;8&amp;9&amp;\color{green}{10}&amp;11\\ 6&amp;|&amp;7&amp;8&amp;9&amp;\color{green}{10}&amp;11&amp;12\\ \end{array} $$  and the probability of a sum is just the length of the corresponding diagonal divided by $36$. For instance, $\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{sum} = 10) = \frac{3}{36} = \frac{1}{12}$. However, it's not as easy to draw a diagram for three dice or more, so how would a general formula look? If $g \circ f$ is surjective, show that $f$ does not have to be surjective? Suppose $f: A \to B$ and $g: C \to D$ are functions, and that $B ⊆ C$.  I need to come up with an example where $g \circ f$ is surjective but $f$ is not. I'm confused on how exactly to do that, but I understand that to show something is surjective you have to have the range of the function equal to the codomain of the function. Here's my attempt:  So if $g(x) = x^2$ with a codomain of $ℝ$, and $f(x) = \sqrt{x}$ with a codomain of $ℝ$, then $g(f(x)) = (\sqrt{x})^2 = x$. Since the range of this function and codomain are the same, this is surjective.  But, since $f(x) = \sqrt{x}$, its range is only $[0, ∞)$, which is smaller than its codomain of $ℝ$, meaning $f$ is not surjective. SHM with acceleration at mean position Suppose we have an equation of  motion as $$\frac{d^2x}{dt^2} = -kx + c,$$ then can it be called a SHM? Since acceleration is still proportional to displacement. But then, how will we define the mean position? I want to create a standalone python script using QGIS python API (PYQGIS) for education. First I create a model and export that model to python script.  original python script from the export :  ##=name ##raster=raster ##stat=output html outputs_QGISRASTERLAYERSTATISTICS_1=processing.runalg('qgis:rasterlayerstatistics', raster,stat)   Next I read this  and I tried to follow this tutorial to create my script.  Final script :  import sys from qgis.core import QgsApplication from PyQt4.QtGui import QApplication app = QApplication([]) QgsApplication.setPrefixPath("/usr", True) QgsApplication.initQgis()  # Prepare processing framework  sys.path.append('/home/username/.qgis2/python') from processing.core.Processing import Processing dem='aster.tif' slope='slope.tif' aspect='aspect.tif' outputs_SAGASLOPEASPECTCURVATURE_1=processing.runalg('saga:slopeaspectcurvature', dem,6,1,1,slope,aspect,None,None,None,None,None,None,None,None,None,None) Processing.initialize()  # Exit applications QgsApplication.exitQgis() QApplication.exit()   If I run this script it works fine without error but I don't take some export like aspect and slope (these can't be found?). Any idea why I can't take exports ?  I use Ubuntu and python 2.7 and QGIS 2.18.1.    i try to this script :  import sys from qgis.core import QgsApplication sys.path.append('/usr/share/qgis/python/plugins') import processing a=processing.alglist() print a processing.alghelp("saga:slopeaspectcurvature")   and i take that print any idea why ?  Algorithm not found   but if i use this module in QGIS work fine. What happens if a Rainbow Servant takes levels in Mystic Theurge? Aligning multiple points to line in QGIS? I would like to align multiple points to a line, or lines within a layer, using a specified tolerance or buffer around the line objects. Please refer to the sample sketch attached.  For the sake of this example, the points closest to the line in the BEFORE picture are within 5 map units of the line, while the outermost points are over 10 map units away. I would like to snap the closest points onto the nearest line, using a tolerance of 5 map units to achieve the result in the AFTER picture. Reprojecting vector layer in QGIS? I have a series of layers of lines (shapefiles) in My Project. The CRS of some are different and to merge them they all must have same CRS.  When I use Processing/Toolbox/Qgis_algorithims/Reproject_layer the reprojection only works if it is allowed to save to temporary file somewhere (it will not change the CRS when I reproject if I try to save and replace it in My Project directory);   I must remove the original from the layer list and reproject the temp file (without changing the CRS) to get it into my project and name it appropriately.  Is there a better way to reproject a layer in Qgis? If $X$ is distributed $N(\mu_X, \sigma^2_X)$, $Y$ is distributed $N(\mu_Y, \sigma^2_Y)$ and $Z = X + Y$, I know that $Z$ is distributed $N(\mu_X + \mu_Y, \sigma^2_X + \sigma^2_Y)$ if X and Y are independent.  But what would happen if X and Y were not independent, i.e. $(X, Y) \approx N\big( (\begin{smallmatrix} \mu_X\\\mu_Y \end{smallmatrix}) , (\begin{smallmatrix} \sigma^2_X &amp;&amp; \sigma_{X,Y}\\ \sigma_{X,Y} &amp;&amp; \sigma^2_Y \end{smallmatrix}) \big) $  Would this affect how the sum $Z$ is distributed? During the latest gaming session our level 3 Rogue was Two-Weapon fighting with a Rapier in the main-hand and a scimitar in the off-hand.  At the completion of our gaming session I contested the application of the Two-Weapon fighting rules as it seemed unbalanced.  Once I got home I reviewed the PHB and various RPGStack and Reddit but couldn't find a concrete answer.  My interpretation of the PHB Reference rules below is that although any class/character can technically wield a weapon in their off-hand, only those who have been granted a Bonus Action for which no explicit bonus action have been defined would be allowed to actually attack.  So in the case of a Rogue the Bonus Actions granted under Cunning Action allow for specific actions (none of which are attack).  The alternate interpretation would be the rules under Two-Weapon Fighting, perhaps it should be written      you receive a bonus action to attack with a different light melee weapon that you’re holding in the other hand.   This would, in my opinion, explicitly grant the Bonus Action to any character/class who is Two-Weapon Fighting.  After thorough review does it boil down to application of the rules-as-written and determining a house-rule to apply in our campaign?    References  Page 189 of PHB : Bonus Actions  Various class features, spells, and other abilities let you take an additional action on your turn called a bonus action. The Cunning Action feature, for example, allows a rogue to take a bonus action.      You can take a bonus action only when a special ability, spell, or other feature of the game states that you can do something as a bonus   action. You otherwise don’t have a bonus action to take.   You can take only one bonus action on your turn, so you must choose which bonus action to use when you have more than one available. You choose when to take a bonus action during your turn, unless the bonus action’s timing is specified, and anything that deprives you of your ability to take actions also prevents you from taking a bonus action.  Page 96 of PHB  A Rogue receives cunning action at level 2, You can take a bonus action on each of your turns in combat.      This action can be used only to take the Dash, Disengage, or Hide action.   Page 195 of PHB  Two-Weapon Fighting (Combat Rules)  When you take the Attack action and attack with a light melee weapon that you’re holding in one hand, you can use a bonus action to attack with a different light melee weapon that you’re holding in the other hand. You don’t add your ability modifier to the damage of the bonus attack, unless that modifier is negative. If either weapon has the thrown property, you can throw the weapon, instead of making a melee attack with it.  Page 165 of PHB  Dual Wielder  (Feat)  You master fighting with two weapons, gaining the following benefits:   You gain a +1 bonus to AC while you are wielding a separate melee weapon in each hand. You can use two-weapon fighting even when the one-handed melee weapons you are wielding aren't light. You can draw or stow two one-handed weapons when you would normally be able to draw or stow only one.
