When I was younger I remember watching a copied VHS that had a partial sci-fi movie on it. From what I remember a humanoid alien family somehow gets stuck on earth.   There were 2 sisters whose hair changed from white to brunette/blonde in sunlight.   They had an orange fuzzy alien like pet with maybe 3 legs, and it was apparently a young whatever and it smoked coal at some point.  I've tried looking for family oriented scifi movies from the 80s/90s and have had no luck finding this title.
I don't really remember the plot but I think the a couple of alien girls (look human) crash land on Earth and are helped by human boy (18-19 ish). They get back to their ship but the older girl, with white hair, decides to stay on Earth to be with the boy.  At the beginning of the TV movie the boy wakes up and uses a ham radio and then goes to work on a ranch/farm(?).  I think it might have been one of these old Disney Sunday night movies.
What are the most widely used C++ vector/matrix math/linear algebra libraries, and their cost and benefit tradeoffs? Divergent infinite series $n!e^n/n^n$ - simpler proof of divergence? Is there a way to transfer more than one Pokemon at a time? Is there a way to transfer more than one Pokemon at a time to the professor?  Or possibly an addon that gives me this ability?  Vendoring all the trash Pokemon for candies individually is really annoying and time consuming. WordPress site displaying 404 for any page apart from index My WordPress site is returning a 404 not found error on any page apart from the homepage and /wp-admin. I have no absolutely no idea why this is. My Permalinks are set up to use /year/month/date/post-title/ (e.g www.domain.com/2014/04/28/sample-post/). When I change the permalinks to the default (?p=123) it works fine, but not on any of the other ones.  Here is the contents of the .htaccess file:  &lt;IfModule mod_rewrite.c&gt; RewriteEngine On RewriteBase / RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L] RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule . /index.php [L] &lt;/IfModule&gt;   I have also installed the plugin 'Debug This', which provides details on the Rewrite Rules. However because it's a pretty big list and unformatted it would look quite bad, I've put it in a jsfiddle, here:   I think that's all the details I have, I've disabled all plugins and stuff like that. Thanks for any help.  EDIT: ok so I've since discovered a bit more info. I also forgot to say that the host for the site is Heroku (I'm building for a client and for some reason he's insisting I use Heroku, which is bad choice for WP I know but I can't persuade him otherwise so that's life). I recently installed , which also installed Nginx. So I'm assuming that's whats broken my Permalinks. I then found , which seems to be about the issue I'm having, which links to this page on the Nginx Documentation. Problem is I've never used Nginx before so I don't know where to put all the code it's got in the first section entitled Abridged Basic Setup. Can someone help me out? Thank you :) Are undead and creatures immune to charm excluded from the HP count of Sleep? From the spell description:     Sleep (...) Creatures within 20 feet of a point you choose within range are affected in ascending order of their current hit points (ignoring unconscious creatures). Starting with the creature that has the lowest current hit points,(...) Subtract each creature’s hit points from the total before moving on to the creature with the next lowest hit points. A creature’s hit points must be equal to or less than the remaining total for that creature   to be affected. Undead and creatures immune to being charmed aren’t affected by this spell. (PH p.276)   Now, to build the ascending order of their current hitpoints, the spell instructs to count everyone in area of effect, but only ignore unconscous creatures. Then later on it says that Undead and creatures immune to being charmed aren't affected.  Are those two latter kinds of creatures excluded from the roll of current HP by default? Following the "if they were it would say so" philosophy of Sage Advice, it doesn't seem so to me. My Mac is getting really slow, what should I do? Proof for SSS Congruence? What happens if you are refused entry between two countries? Last month, I was travelling on a backpacking trip across Russia and the Baltic states (Schengen zone). I'm an Indian by nationality. So I had to get the respective single entry visa for Russia and Schengen Europe.  At the border crossing into Estonia by road (at Ivangorod-Narva), I exited the Russian border with an exit stamp (so now I can't go back to Russia since I had a single entry visa). When I was at the immigration checkpoint of Estonia, I was heavily questioned on the intent of my travel to Europe while entering Estonia by road.   Though I finally got into Europe, It got me wondering - what happens if a foreign national is denied entry into a country not at the airport but by land between 2 countries he cannot go into ?  Generally, if you are denied entry at the airport the airline has the obligation to fly you back to your country. But what happens when you are stuck between two countries and you cant get into either ? What happens to you then ? Cubic polynomial with three (distinct) irrational roots I am looking for an equation     $$x^3+ax^2+bx+c=0, \qquad a, b, c \in \Bbb Z,$$   of degree $3$ that has $3$ different roots.  For an equation of degree $2$ it is easy---for example $x^2-2=0$---but I can't find an example for degree $3$.  if there is a method for finding this kind of Equation I will be grateful. HashSet vs. List performance It's clear that a search performance of the generic HashSet&lt;T&gt; class is higher than of the generic List&lt;T&gt; class. Just compare the hash-based key with the linear approach in the List&lt;T&gt; class.  However calculating a hash key may itself take some CPU cycles, so for a small amount of items the linear search can be a real alternative to the HashSet&lt;T&gt;.  My question: where is the break-even?  To simplify the scenario (and to be fair) let's assume that the List&lt;T&gt; class uses the element's Equals() method to identify an item. Consider the closed interval $[0,1]$, there is $\frac{2}{3} \in [0,1]$ where $p=2$ and $q=3$. Similarly consider $[2,3]$, one can have $\frac{5}{2} \in [2,3]$ where $p=5$ and $q=2$. Does every interval of the form $[a,b]$, where $a,b \in \mathbb{R}$ contain a rational of this kind. If yes, how can we prove it? This morning I upgraded my system to Windows 10 2004, the upgrade went smooth and was through Windows Update. I am using Hyper-V as my virtualization program for virtual machines and to provide extra layer of protection to the system through core isolation. After the upgrade, I noticed that a new Virtual Switch was created with the name &quot;vEthernet (Ethernet)&quot; where &quot;Ethernet&quot; within the parentheses is the name of my primary network adapter. Also noticed this behavior has a specific pattern of creating new vSwitches correspond to the adapters you have, e.g. if you created a new Virtual Switch and restarted the system, a new additional switch will appear with the name &quot;vEthernet (your-new-switch-name)&quot;. Tried to remove Hyper-V and reinstall it but no luck. I am aware of a similar  on SuperUser but has no answers on it. Any clues for the root of the problem? Why is triple-DES using three different keys vulnerable to a meet-in-the-middle-attack? Among other sources,  states that triple DES using three seperate keys (k1, k2, k3) is vulnerable to meet-in-the-middle-attacks, while triple DES using only two keys (k1, k2, k1) is not.  Why is this attack possible if all the keys are different, but not if the first and the third are the same? Will I still receive OTA updates after rooting my Nexus 5? I just wanna ask that after rooting Nexus 5 will I be receiving OTA updates by Google ? Or I'll have to install a custom ROM ? How do you do load testing and capacity planning for databases? This is a  about capacity planning for databases. Related:      I'm looking to create a canonical question of tools and methods of capacity planning for databases. This is intended to be a canonical question. Obviously, the general workflow is:  Put your scenario in place Add monitoring Add traffic Evaluate results Remediate based on results Rinse, repeat until reasonably happy  Please feel free to describe different tools and techniques for different web-servers, frameworks, etc., as well as best-practices. A Google search spewed forth millions of hits on how to find tables without clustered indexed, the PK normally being the clustered index of a table. However, a table could easily have a natural key as a clustered index, and a non-clustered surrogate index, like an identity column.  How do I find all tables in a DB without a primary key defined? I have 245 tables in this DB: manual inspection is grossly inefficient. Edits on closed posts Should questions or answers on questions that are closed be edited, even if the question is closed and the edit does not change anything about the reason it's closed? Example:  was just edited, which I saw in the review queue. It certainly improves the answer, but since the answer doesn't really have to exist on SE at all (because the question is off-topic), should this edit be made? In my understanding, the only reason that the edit option for a closed question is not greyed out is so that it can be edited to make it comply with the SE rules. Is there any good reason that an empty set of round brackets (parentheses) isn't valid for calling the default constructor in C++?  MyObject  object;  // ok - default ctor MyObject  object(blah); // ok  MyObject  object();  // error   I seem to type "()" automatically everytime. Is there a good reason this isn't allowed? I have a script in file bla.sh and it is executable. When I click on it, the script is executed and the window is closed. I'd like the window to stay open.  Something like command cmd /k** command in Windows.  P.S. I don't want to use pause, but I want to able to write more commands after the script was executed. Which is the simplest way to update a Label from another Thread?   I have a Form running on thread1, and from that I'm starting another thread (thread2).  While thread2 is processing some files I would like to update a Label on the Form with the current status of thread2's work.   How could I do that?
