I'm using utf8_encode || utf8_decode ..., but I'm struggling to handle some special characters (é, è ê ... ,)  I'm using php.  Could someone help?
I'm setting up a new server and want to support UTF-8 fully in my web application. I have tried this in the past on existing servers and always seem to end up having to fall back to ISO-8859-1.  Where exactly do I need to set the encoding/charsets? I'm aware that I need to configure Apache, MySQL, and PHP to do this — is there some standard checklist I can follow, or perhaps troubleshoot where the mismatches occur?  This is for a new Linux server, running MySQL 5, PHP, 5 and Apache 2.
At least one prime between $\sqrt{n}$ and $n$? Prove that for all $n&gt;2$ there exists at least one prime $p$ such that $\sqrt{n}&lt;p&lt;n$ using elementary methods.  My try: If not, $\sum_{p&lt;\sqrt{n}} (\lfloor n/p \rfloor-\lfloor \sqrt{n}/p \rfloor) \geq n-\sqrt{n}$  then...? I have two LED lamps in my corridor, and when I switch them off, they keep emitting light (not very strong, but it's annoying at night).  What can it be? How can I fix it? How can I get a brace on the right, not the left, to group cases, using cases? (I know actual cases look better with the brace on the left, but the items I need to group are not literally cases. They are a set of steps in an algorithm which I want to consider as an item.)  The following puts the brace on the left. All I need to do is to flip it to the right.  \begin{align} \begin{cases} a&amp;=bbb\\ c&amp;=ddddddd\\ e&amp;=ffffffffff \end{cases} \end{align}   Thanks for any help with this! Understanding slice notation Review overview shows two suggested edits for a long time, but the review queue is empty When I went to the review overview on Meta on 08.01.2015, 19:16, it listed two open items in the suggested-edits queue, however when I clicked on the queue, I was told that the queue had been cleared. When I went back to the review overview, however, the edits were there again.  Since the icons for recent reviews had not moved, I suppose that these were still the same two items waiting for review, and since phenomenon lasted for half an hour now, I would rule out  or  to be the reason for this.  After a while, the phenomenon ceased, with one new reviewer popping up in the icon list of recent reviewers.  I had not performed or skipped any suggested-edit review from the queue at that point.    A similar phenomenon occurred for several hours up to 11.04.2015, 11:05: The review overview showed two suggested edits and when I went to the suggested-edits queue, it was cleared. Sometimes, edits that I could review appeared, but two phantom edits remained. Setup Apache in Amazon AWS I tried to setup apache 2.2 in amazon aws using amazon ami. i did installed httpd and php and congirue http.conf to use /var/www/html.  Then put file index.html on that folder. But when i tried to use browser to browse my domain which is ec2-122-248-255-181.ap-southeast-1.compute.amazonaws.com, nothing was loaded.  I did start httpd by running apachectl start, and i can see it listening on port 80.  Does anybody know what is wrong? Why did the Emperor remain motionless while Darth Vader threw him off the balcony? I'm wondering whether this was a movie sin but his body position seemed to stay the same? Also why didn't he stop using Force Lightning? He continued to use it even as he was falling down.   I'm also wondering whether Palpatine meant to electrocute Vader or was it just a coincidence (because he kept firing Force Lightning) .  It makes no sense as he just stood there allowing Vader to throw him. Creating Inky-looking characters in Blender I'm involved in a project to do with ink animation and experimentation. I found this incredible piece of animation:    I originally thought this was some sort of After Effects compositing (is it even possible in AE?!), but found out that this particular animation was created in 3DS Max with Krakatoa and FumeFX. I'm just wonder if a similar effect is doable with Blender's smoke simulator.  There are various YouTube videos that have pretty decent results of ink renders from Blender, but I can't seem to find anything of a similar sort of movement animation. Just blobs floating around! The closest thing I found was this animation of a         but again I can't seem to replicate this. The smoke just doesn't seem to follow my character's animation. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. How do you make a test class for custom controller? My search results involves this but trying to apply it in my test class only create too many error that I don't understand.  public static testMethod void testMyController() {     PageReference pageRef = Page.success;//Observe how we set the Page here     Test.setCurrentPage(pageRef);   . Does my test class need those line of codes when my controller class is only very simple.  public class ClientInfo_VFcontroller{     public Org_Info__c orgInfo {get; set;}     public ClientInfo_VFcontroller(){         orgInfo = new Org_Info__c();     }     public PageReference save(){         insert orgInfo;         orgInfo = null;         ScheduleRetrieve.ScheduleRetrieve();         return null;     } } Beamer Bibliography Icon I want to list my references in a beamer presentation using thebibliography environment, with the nice little    book icon (\beamertemplatebookbibitems) and  article icon (\beamertemplatearticlebibitems)   in front of each source.  Is there an icon for websites too? something like \beamertemplatewebsitebibitems? If not, is there a way to implement this easily ? How is the Schroedinger equation a wave equation? Wave equations take the form:  $$\frac{ \partial^2 f}  {\partial t^2} = c^2 \nabla ^2f$$  But the Schroedinger equation takes the form:  $$i \hbar \frac{ \partial f}  {\partial t} = - \frac{\hbar ^2}{2m}\nabla ^2f + U(x) f$$  The partials with respect to time are not the same order. How can Schroedinger's equation be regarded as a wave equation?  And why are interference patterns (e.g in the double-slit experiment) so similar for water waves and quantum wavefunctions? How can I disable the “News and Interests” Widget on the Windows 10 Taskbar?

Is AES in CBC mode secure if a known and/or fixed IV is used? How to create a generic array in Java? Due to the implementation of Java generics, you can't have code like this:   public class GenSet&lt;E&gt; {     private E a[];      public GenSet() {         a = new E[INITIAL_ARRAY_LENGTH]; // error: generic array creation     } }   How can I implement this while maintaining type safety?  I saw a solution on the Java forums that goes like this:  import java.lang.reflect.Array;  class Stack&lt;T&gt; {     public Stack(Class&lt;T&gt; clazz, int capacity) {         array = (T[])Array.newInstance(clazz, capacity);     }      private final T[] array; }   But I really don't get what's going on. What's the term in music, where the singer uses words without meaning? I've been searching for the word, which is used for describing parts of lyrics, where the singer sings for example the whole refrain only using words of syllables without any meaning.

Create file and its parent directory I know that touch command creates a file:  touch test1.txt   but how I can create a file and its full path?  for example my desktop contains nothing:  ~/Desktop/$ ls ~/Desktop/$   and I want to create 1.txt in ~/Desktop/a/b/c/d/e/f/g/h/1.txt. Can I do this with a simple command like:  $ touch ~/Desktop/a/b/c/d/e/f/g/h/1.txt   instead of create full path manually and then create the file?
