The following use of apostrophe is correct.     Gita is Sita's sister.   But suppose Sita is name of two twin sisters and Gita is their younger sister. So how should we write that?     1) Gita is Sitas' sister.   Or     2) Gita is Sita's sister.   It seems to me, that in certain cases, the apostrophe comes after the s, though I might be wrong.
In the sentence below, are the usages of apostrophes correct?     In research about parent stereotypes, the correlation between parents’ beliefs about their early elementary age children’s’ mathematics abilities and the children’s actual abilities increased as children aged.
Handling very large numbers in Python Perfect set without rationals Awk: if pattern not found add some text at the end of file Oracle: how to UPSERT (update or insert into a table?) The UPSERT operation either updates or inserts a row in a table, depending if the table already has a row that matches the data:  if table t has a row exists that has key X:     update t set mystuff... where mykey=X else     insert into t mystuff...   Since Oracle doesn't have a specific UPSERT statement, what's the best way to do this? How to assign a SSL Certificate to IIS7 Site from Command Prompt Can you advise me whether it is possible or not to assign a SSL Certificate to a website in IIS7 using the APPCMD application?  I am familiar with the command to set the HTTPS Binding  appcmd set site /site.name:"A Site" /+bindings.[protocol='https',bindingInformation='*:443:www.mysite.com']   and how to obtain current mappings   %windir%\system32\inetsrv\Appcmd   but can not seem to find any way to map a site to a certificate (say the certificates hash for example) Update help center article on search to reflect the new position of the search box The page  says:      Enter search terms in the search box that appears in the upper right corner of every page    But the box is not there. What caused the apocalypse in the Hunger Games? So the stories of the Hunger Games are set in , a post-apocalyptic society situated in North America. Is there anything to explain what caused the Apocalypse? Whether from the main books, any extra material or interviews? (No fanfic please.)  As well as the cause, is there any indication of when the apocalypse happened? And how long after the apocalypse are the events of the Hunger Games? Concatenating string with space Ubuntu 18.04: switch back to /etc/network/interfaces Starting sometime around Ubuntu 18.04, the Ubuntu devs stopped using the classic /etc/init.d/networking and /etc/network/interfaces method of configuring the network and switched to some thing called . This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move. Is it possible to remove netplan and use the correct /etc/network/interfaces method for configuring the network? What is the difference between find . and /home/user/* as an input to for command.? For example:  for var in $(find .) do echo "$var" done   or  for var in /home/user/* do echo "$var" done   In the first case for command breaks up the file with names containing spaces. While in the second case it does not. Why? A group $G$ with a subgroup $H$ of index $n$ has a normal subgroup $K\subset H$ whose index in $G$ divides $n!$ A question about special relativity theory We have two sets: set No.1 and set No.2 as in this picture:   The observer is fixed to set No.1 . He sees set No.1 motionless and observes set No. 2 approaching with velocity 100,000 m/s.   Each set has one lamp and two, so called, touchers. Each set is designed so that if both touchers are touched simultaneously the lamp is turned on otherwise it remains off.  Set No. 2 is approaching set No. 1 so that each toucher in each set will be touched twice by the touchers of the other set.  The observer on set No. 1 observes the distance between touchers in each set 10 meters. He thinks the lamps on set No. 1 will be turned on because touchers in it will be touched simultaneously.  My question: Will the lamp on set No. 2 be turned on? How if an electrical current flowing from one toucher in a set to the other proves simultaneous touching? Closure of a Ball is Contained in Closed Ball (usual metric) Let $\overline{B_d (x, r)}$ be the closure of an open ball, and let $\hat B_d (x, r)$ be a closed ball. Show that in any metric space $(X, d)$, $\overline{B_d (x, r)} \subseteq \hat B_d (x, r)$ for all $x \in X$ and $r &gt; 0$.    I used the definition of closure: $\overline{B}$ = $B \bigcup B'$. If $x \in \overline{B}$, then $x \in B$ or $x \in \overline{B}$, or both. If $x \in B$, then clearly $x \in \hat B$ since $B \subseteq \hat B$. But, if $x \in B'$, then $x$ is an accumulation point. Since $\hat B$ is closed, it contains all accumulation points of $B$. Thus, $x \in \hat B$.  Is this approach correct, or at least in the right direction? Should I be using the closure definition, or try another one? Thank you. PHP generate file for download then redirect String concatenation: concat() vs "+" operator If $f \colon [a,b] \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$, then show that there exists $c \in [a,b]$ such that $\int_a^c f = \int_c^b f$ If $f \colon [a,b]\rightarrow \mathbb{R}$, then show that there exists $c \in [a,b]$ such that $c \in [a,b]$ such that $\int_a^c f = \int_c^b f$.  I think that I have to proceed with the Mean Value Theorem of Integrals... My USB drive used to be originally 8GB when I bought it.  I'm trying to reformatted in Windows 7 by right clicking on the drive and selecting Format.... But the capacity only shows 250MB.  Is there something I can do to get the original size back? Maybe it got partitioned in a weird way?   The  flash drive is a SanDisk Cruzer Micro 8GB. I got it from Wal-Mart but this is the same drive. Can "it" be used with plural subject? Several years ago I heard of something called dummy subjects in high school. It was then stated that, for example, it is a dummy subject when it starts many instances of sentences, e.g.        It is rainy today.   It is hard to imagine how hard is to live alone.   It is not my university degree that matters here.     My question is if we can use it with plural subjects? For example in       If some think that in Mahmoud Dowlatabadi’s works it is only social themes that matter and the writer is ignoring fictional arrays and artistic techniques, at least, endings of his stories show wrongness of this idea.     My question deals with the italicized part. If this usage is OK, can we also write they are social themes that matter? I mean can they also play the role of a dummy subject? What is the difference between a class and a set? I know what a set is. I have no idea what a class is.   As best as I can make out, every set is also a class, but a class can be "larger" than any set (a so-called "proper class").  This obviously makes no sense whatsoever, since sets are of unlimited size. It's not like you get up to 25 elements and go "oh, hey, sets are limited to a maximum of 20 elements, so we'll have to call this 25-element thing something else".  Does anybody know what the actual difference between a set and a class is?  Several people have pointed out that you can write paradoxes which involve sets. I get that. But where do classes come into the picture? I am having trouble getting onto a server in Minecraft PE on iOS. When I tap on the person's server it just says invalid name:    I have tried turning off and restarting the iPad, going to home screen and logging back into the server but I have had no luck and no change. Is there a reason why this is so?
