In A New Hope Luke is told by the bartender at Mos Eisley that C3P0's kind were not served there    In Attack of the Clones while Anakin is taking Padme into hiding, they go into a bar and this time a droid bartender tells R2D2 (I think) to get out of the bar    Why is there such racism against droids in Star Wars bars?
When —the bartender at the Cantina at Mos Eisley spaceport in the first Star Wars—says:     “We don’t serve their kind here.”   In reference to C-3PO and R2-D2 entering the bar, it’s certainly a bit prejudicial, but are these commonly held views in this universe? We don’t see it happen anywhere else in the films but is it implied elsewhere?
I know this question is asked a lot, but the solutions I saw didn't work for me.  I only have one virtual host enabled, and I'm trying to enable access to a folder that's not under the document root  ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost DocumentRoot /var/www/html  Alias /movies /home/username/Videos/Movies  &lt;Directory /home/username/Videos/Movies/&gt;     Options Indexes FollowSymLinks     AllowOverride None     Require all granted &lt;/Directory&gt;   I set /etc/apache2/envvars as follows  export APACHE_RUN_USER=www-data export APACHE_RUN_GROUP=public   I made sure that /home/username/Videos/ and its sub folders are owned by username:public, set the permissions to 777 (after 775 didn't work) and made sure that user www-data belongs to group public.  Now, when I browse to http://localhost/movies I get  [Mon Apr 21 11:28:14.971844 2014] [core:error] [pid 1385:tid 140067725104896] (13)Permission denied: [client 127.0.0.1:46603] AH00035: access to /movies/ denied (filesystem path '/home/username/Videos') because search permissions are missing on a component of the path   But when I set /etc/apache2/envvars to run Apache under username (my own username) everything works fine. The problem is permission related, but I don't see how in my case; especially when I set the permissions to 777. Any ideas?  P.S. Ubuntu version is 14.04, Apache is 2.4.7 and I didn't edit other configuration files. What causes the tension in the strap between Dr. Ryan and Matt? In the scene where Dr. Ryan Stone's (Sandra Bullock) leg is entangled in Soyuz's parachute cords and she is tethered with Matt Kowalski (George Clooney) through a strap, there is tension in the strap, suggesting act of some external force. Where is this force coming form that is causing tension in the strap and pushing both Dr. Ryan and Matt outwards?  I'm guessing that the tension might be coming from centrifugal force, but immediate events before this scene, as well as other parts of ISS in same scene do not suggest presence of such force (or presence of any kind of rotation). How can I use BibTeX to cite a web page? I'm looking to cite a number of web pages using bibtex and I was wondering if there was a specific template of the form @&lt;template name here&gt; for doing that. If you could use the following website as an example that would be great I can't get grub menu to show up during boot After trying (and failing) to install better ATI drivers in 11.10, I've somehow lost my grub menu at boot time.  The screen does change to the familiar purple colour, but instead of a list of boot options it's just blank solid colour, and then disappears quickly and boots into the default entry normally.    How can I get the bootloader back?  I've tried sudo update-grub and also various different combinations of resolutions and colour depths in startupmanager application with no success (640x480, 1024x768, 1600x1200, 16 bits, 8 bits, 10 second delay, 7 second delay, 2 second delay...)   edit:   I have already tried holding down Shift during bootup and it does not seem to change the behaviour.  I get the message "GRUB Loading" in the terminal, but then the place where the grub menu normally appears I get a solid blank magenta screen for a while.  Here are the contents of /etc/default/grub  # If you change this file, run 'update-grub' afterwards to update # /boot/grub/grub.cfg. # For full documentation of the options in this file, see: #   info -f grub -n 'Simple configuration'  GRUB_DEFAULT=0 GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0 GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT_QUIET=true GRUB_TIMEOUT=10 GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR=`lsb_release -i -s 2&gt; /dev/null || echo Debian` GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash" GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=" vga=798 splash"  # Uncomment to enable BadRAM filtering, modify to suit your needs # This works with Linux (no patch required) and with any kernel that obtains # the memory map information from GRUB (GNU Mach, kernel of FreeBSD ...) #GRUB_BADRAM="0x01234567,0xfefefefe,0x89abcdef,0xefefefef"  # Uncomment to disable graphical terminal (grub-pc only) #GRUB_TERMINAL=console  # The resolution used on graphical terminal # note that you can use only modes which your graphic card supports via VBE # you can see them in real GRUB with the command `vbeinfo' #GRUB_GFXMODE=640x480  # Uncomment if you don't want GRUB to pass "root=UUID=xxx" parameter to Linux #GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_UUID=true  # Uncomment to disable generation of recovery mode menu entries #GRUB_DISABLE_RECOVERY="true"  # Uncomment to get a beep at grub start #GRUB_INIT_TUNE="480 440 1" I tried:   Launching Ubuntu Software Centre I typed in "air" and found "adobe air" It says "available from the 'maverick-partner' source. and has a button "use this source" I clicked "use this source", I saw a "in progress (1)" icon come up in the side bar, and disappear, but nothing happened/changed.

Let A and B be sets. Show that A is a subset of B if and only if for any set C, one has A union C is a subset of B union C. Can you verify my proof if it is right?  Let $A$ and $B$ be sets.  (a) Show that $A$ is a subset of $B$ if and only if for any set $C$, one has $A$ union $C$ is a subset of $B$ union $C$. (b) Show that $A$ is a subset of $B$ if and only if for any set $C$, one has $A$ intersect $C$ is a subset of $B$ intersect $C$.  Edited Solution :  (a)  (=>) Given A is a subset of B, this implies A U B = B. Given a set C, A U B U C = B U C. Since A is a subset of B, this implies A U C is a subset of B U C.      Solution 1 :(&lt;=) Given A U C is a subset of B U C , For A U C , x is a member of A U C . For B U C, x is a member of B U C. Suppose x is a member of A but not a member of B, meaning A is not a subset of B. Therefore , A U C is not a subset of B U C. Hence, A must be a subset of B.      Solution 2 :(&lt;=) Given A U C is a subset of B U C, For A U C, x is a member of A U C and for B U C, x is a member of B U C. Suppose C is a disjoint set. Since A U C is a subset of B U C, it follows that A is a subset of B.  (b) (=>) Since A is a subset of B , it follows that A U B = B. [A intersect C] is a subset of A and  [B intersect C ] is a subset of B by definition of intersection. Let x be member of A and member of C. Since [ A intersect C ] is a subset of A, x must be in A. Let x be a member of B and member of C. Since [ B intersect C ] is a subset of B, x must be in B. Therefore, A intersect C is a subset of B intersect C.  (&lt;=) Since A intersect C is a subset of B intersect C, suppose we let Set C be a subset of B and a subset of A as well. C is a subset of A implies A intersect C is equals to C. C is a subset of B implies B intersect C is equals to C as well. Since A intersect C is equals to B intersect C, A is a subset of B. Could someone please tell me what the symbol ringed in red represents?     I know it has ON Switch pointing to it, but the symbol has other lables in different parts of the document. Financial proof to get a Schengen visa to France I am planning to apply for a Schengen visa to visit France. I have an attestation d'acceuil, but the visa requires I submit bank statement for the past 3 months. I can get this statement, but the problem is that my company has been paying my salary in cash for the past months, and I place the money into the account by myself.  Can I submit the following?   my accounting book (current account)  letter from the bank stating that I have money in it payslips for the past 3 months   Will that satisfy the financial requirements for the visa? Show that $x_{n+1}-\dfrac{x_n}{2}$ converges to zero implies that $(x_n)_n$ also converges to zero. Let $(x_n)_n$ be a sequence of real numbers such that $$\lim\limits_{n\rightarrow \infty}\left( x_{n+1} - \dfrac{x_n}{2}\right)=0.$$ Show that $(x_n)_n$ must also converge to zero.     $\textbf{My Attempt:}$   My original idea was to use the triangle inequality and the fact that $$\lim\limits_{n\rightarrow \infty}\left( x_{n+1} - \dfrac{x_n}{2}\right)=0$$   to show that the sequence $(x_n)_n$ is Cauchy and hence converges to some real number $a$, which would give me $$\lim\limits_{n\rightarrow \infty}x_n=a=\lim\limits_{n\rightarrow \infty}x_{n+1}\implies a-\dfrac a 2= \lim\limits_{n\rightarrow \infty}\left( x_{n+1} - \dfrac{x_n}{2}\right)=0\implies a=0.$$ However, I'm having trouble showing that $(x_n)_n$ is Cauchy.   Any suggestions/hints would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hierarchical clustering with mixed type data - what distance/similarity to use? In my dataset we have both continuous and naturally discrete variables.
