In the film and book series, Year 4 (Goblet of Fire), how is it Mad-Eye Moody/Barty Crouch could see Harry through his Magical Eye even when he was under the Invisibility Cloak?  As the cloak is a True Invisibility cloak, immune to charms and spells, and according to legend invisible to even Death, how did Mad-Eye detect Harry Potter under the cloak? How Nagini and Mrs. Norris were able to sense Harry were through other senses, such as smell and warmth, but not visually.  I'm referring to the scene/chapter where Snape follows Harry at night. Harry hides under the Invisibility Cloak but his foot is stuck at the broken staircase. Eventually Mad-Eye arrives, sees Harry through his Magical Eye, and talks Snape away. Is there a way to programmatically determine if a font file has a specific Unicode Glyph? I'm working on a project that generates PDFs that can contain fairly complex math and science formulas.  The text is rendered in Times New Roman, which has pretty good Unicode coverage, but not complete. We have a system in place to swap in a more Unicode complete font for code points that don't have a glyph in TNR (like most of the "stranger" math symbols,) but I can't seem to find a way to query the *.ttf file to see if a given glyph is present.  So far, I've just hard-coded a lookup table of which code points are present, but I'd much prefer an automatic solution.  I'm using VB.Net in a web system under ASP.net, but solutions in any programming language/environment would be appreciated.  Edit: The win32 solution looks excellent, but the specific case I'm trying to solve is in an ASP.Net web system.  Is there a way to do this without including the windows API DLLs into my web site? This is a repost with additional info of an older question that was never answered. I have stumbled upon this old question while also trying to find the name of the book series myself, as I dearly wish to read it again but for the life of me, I can't remember the name of it.      This is a long shot but I'm really in need of help for this because      it was an amazing book. It was either a kid's or YA book. A guess      from what year it was published would be 90s-mid 2000s, as I read it      around 2008-2011.         The book cover was in first person view, with the main character   holding a weapon, and was a 3D rendered image inside a dungeon or   cave (that was very reminiscent of early 90s CGI animation), though   there may be variants.    It would have been set around when computer   games were mainstream (maybe around the same time as when it might've   been published) It's about a teenage boy who is bored at home, so he   looks through an old family computer to play a game and finds one   that he has never seen before. When he plays it he gets transported   into the game which is a fantasy-medieval setting.    All that I can   remember about the game and story is that the main character is on a   quest, he rides horses a lot, (to the point where he can ride horses   perfectly in real life), at one point he eats food at an ingame   tavern/restaurant? and he tosses the ingame coin currency at the   server because he's in a hurry, (don't know why I remember that bit   specifically haha), and he meets a gnome/dwarf character who is   helping him on his journey, who has a home in an ingame mountain, and   that time goes faster in the game. (For example, if he spent 5   minutes in the real world, 3 in-game days would have passed)   Sometimes as he's playing something stops him from being able the   play the game for a few weeks, maybe a concerned parent because he's   playing too much or there's a family vacation. I remember during the   time when he's not playing the game he's on a farm and knew how to   ride the horses there.    There was a character in the real world who   was the main character's sibling, relative or friend. They were like   a rival and was also very whiny (to some extent). They were on the   farm as well with him and questioned how the main character knew how   to ride a horse when he had never done it in real life.   This is all I can remember but if you need more specific information I can try and answer. It is definitely not Space Demons or Demons Don't Dream. If anyone knows anything remotely similar please mention it, I would really appreciate it. Thank you!!            Additional info:    It is not an online game or virtual reality game. It was a normal PC game, and all other characters are (I think), just NPCs.  He woke up for the first time in a field/farm and was super confused about what happened and where he was, as he had never played the game before. He is asked a super serious question before starting the game up for the first time, like "are you sure you wish to play ___?", and then he is transported into the game.  He frequently exited the game, to continue his IRL life. And sometimes, he would lose access to the family desktop PC for a couple of days at a time, and when he went back everyone in the game (NPCs), thought he had disappeared because he was gone for ages. I think once, his family when on holidays and he couldn't take the PC, for example.  It was a book series, not a single book. In later books he would play the game again months later in the real world, and years and years would have passed in the game world.  The plot involved 2 main warring sides/factions/countries of humans, but there were fantasy/magical races and characters involved. I vaguely remember something about each side having official colours, one red and one blue. I think the main character was on the blue side.   The original question was never correctly answered, so I'm posting again to see if anyone can remember.   Books that were ruled out in original post: Eden's Gate &amp; Heir Apparent. I'm using the gnome flashback session with metacity window manager, but I can't change to any metacity theme in any of the tweaking tools, as they're not even appearing in the lists. Is there anything I can do? In this case what is correct?        Keep Tom and I updated.      or         Keep Tom and me updated.      I understand that me is an object pronoun. And therefore I feel the second option is correct.  Especially, because I would say "Keep him updated" and also "Keep me updated". Instead of "Keep he updated" or "Keep I updated". But something about saying "Keep him and me updated" feels wrong.  However I am not sure, because several people have told me that in this case I is the correct option because it is being used in conjunction with a name (Tom) and not a pronoun. Is that correct?

Why is it that when searching on Google for 'iPhone development stackoverflow' the fourth result is ? states that the isomorphism type of a finite simple group is determined by its order, except that:   $L_4(2)$ and $L_3(4)$ both have order $20160$ $O_{2n+1}(q)$ and $S_{2n}(q)$ have the same order for $q$ odd, $n &gt; 2$   I think this means that for each integer $g$, there are $0$, $1$ or $2$ simple groups of order $g$.  Do we need the full strength of the  to prove this, or is there a simpler way of proving it? Is there a list of the names used for Sauron in Lord of the Rings?

I figure it would be nice to do some simple programming on the way. I'm not picky on which language to code on. I usually have an internet connection on the train.  I've been looking through the android market but haven't found any apps that offer a "development environment" or an editor with a compiler. Is any development ON the Android possible? Does an app for this exist? Is it possible to set up and watch a game between just computer AI opponents? No human players, just AI and have the ability to scroll around and see what the AIs are doing with the turn management being also automated, so the AIs just end turn when they are done. Oh, and all of this hopefully without any sort of fog of war.  This way, I can see how the AI manages resources and units and maybe learn a thing or two as a civ newb. No SA password.

Group member cannot write even with write permission Show that $d_2$ defined by $d_2(x,y)=\frac{|x-y|}{1+|x-y|}$ is a metric I am pretty sure that this is such a stupid, stupid question, but how do you prove that $d_2(x,y)={|x-y|\over {1+|x-y|}}$ satisfying the third condition to be a metric, which is the triangle inequality.   I know that I should really be able to do this, but I just can't, I keep seeing a contradiction. Please help me. What is the different between an Normal and Admin account?

How can I prove that the additive group of rationals is not isomorphic to a direct product of two nontrivial groups? I am working through Paolo Aluffi's new GSM text on my own (self-study). On page 63, he asks the reader to     Prove that $\Bbb{Q}$ is not the direct product of two nontrivial groups.   For some context, this is an exercise following a section entitled "The category Grp".  I am assuming that he means "is not isomorphic to the direct product of two nontrivial groups", and I can see two possible ways to proceed with this proof, but have been unsuccessful with either approach.    Approach 1:  Show that the additive group of rationals has a property that is preserved by isomorphism that the direct product of two nontrivial groups does not have or vice-versa.  This seems challenging unless I can significantly narrow down the properties that a direct product of two nontrivial groups that was isomorphic to $\Bbb{Q}$ would necessarily have.  Approach 2:  Considering the section in which this question occurs, show that if $G$ and $H$ are nontrivial groups and $\Bbb{Q} \cong G \times H$, then there are homomorphisms $\varphi_{G}:\Bbb{Q} \rightarrow G$ and $\varphi_{H}:\Bbb{Q} \rightarrow H$ which do not factor or do not factor uniquely through the product $G \times H$.  This would be a contradiction, as $G \times H$ is a final object in the category Grp.  I would greatly appreciate suggestions on how to proceed further with either of these approaches or with alternate approaches. What is the purpose of the EBP frame pointer register? I'm a beginner in assembly language and have noticed that the x86 code emitted by compilers usually keeps the frame pointer around even in release/optimized mode when it could use the EBP register for something else.  I understand why the frame pointer might make code easier to debug, and might be necessary if alloca() is called within a function.  However, x86 has very few registers and using two of them to hold the location of the stack frame when one would suffice just doesn't make sense to me.  Why is omitting the frame pointer considered a bad idea even in optimized/release builds? Do I need an ESTA to enter the US with the Victoria Clipper ferry? I am thinking of visiting Victoria, BC in Canada and then going to Seattle, WA in the US, with the .  I am a national of a country under the Visa Waiver Program. I think that if I enter by air, I need to fill an ESTA form. If I enter by car, I don't need one, I can fill a form when crossing the border.  With the ferry, what is the procedure? Should I necessarily have an ESTA?
