I need to blend or smooth the transition between theese materials on my charecter:   ] I need to mix the 2 materials but only where the dark blue hits the light blue I need it to smooth, blend or anything that does not make it look so bad hahaha
I have created this with cycles:  But the edge between the glowing and non glowing materials is very sharp. The material was manually applied to faces in edit mode. Is there any way I can smooth the edge between them in cycles?
Avoid large spaces between text and equations I use the options  \renewcommand{\baselinestretch}{1.25} \setlength{\parskip}{0pt} \setlength{\parindent}{0pt}    in the preamble of my document and most of the time the document looks like intended. Once in a while though, especially when I use multiline-equations, I get huge spaces right before and after the equation and the surrounding text, for example:    Is there any way I can avoid that without removing the \parskip option? Can you terminate more than one common on the furnace C terminal? I have two tables A &amp; B. Table A id | name | num  Table B id | date | roll  id in table B is a foreign key which relates to the id in table A. I want to get the contents of table B where id is given and also along with that data, I need the name whose id is given from table A.

At the end of The Time of the Doctor, it is shown that Matt Smith has received an entire new regeneration cycle and using it he regenerates into Peter Capaldi. Capaldi's first question to Clara is about how to fly the TARDIS. Does this mean there has been a memory reset for the Doctor?  If so, has he forgotten his true name?  If he has forgotten his true name, then he can't bring back the Time Lords now can he? I want to mount the device /dev/sda3 to the directory /foo/bar/baz. After mounting the directory should have the uid of user johndoe. So I did:  sudo -u johndoe mkdir /foo/bar/baz stat -c %U /foo/bar/baz johndoe   and added the following line to my /etc/fstab:  /dev/sda3 /foo/bar/baz ext4 noexec,noatime,auto,owner,nodev,nosuid,user 0 1   When I do now sudo -u johndoe mount /dev/sda3 the command stat -c %U /foo/bar/baz results in root rather than johndoe. What is the best way to mount this ext4-filesystem with uid johndoe set? Is there an (easy) way to create or personalize .bst files? When you prepare an article for a journal (in my case, Quantum Information and Computation, Rinton Press), often they ask you to use some format for your references; in my case, the following:     [1] R. Calderbank and P. Shor (1996), Good quantum error          correcting codes exist,  Phys. Rev. A, 54, pp. 1098-1106.      [2] M.A. Nielsen and J. Kempe (2001), Separable states   are  more disordered globally than locally, quant-ph/0105090.      [3] A.W. Marshall and I. Olkin (1979), Inequalities:   theory of majorization and its applications, Academic Press (New   York).   The issue is, sometimes (and this is the case) they do not provide a .bst style file for bibtex users. I (and I guess many other people) prefer not to copy all the references of a bibtex file one by one into a tex document. So here is the question I am trying to answer:     What is the easiest way to create a .bst file? (for Rinton or any other publisher)   At first sight, I thought this would be very easy to do: after all, a .bst file is just a mere script to give format to a list. Strangely to me, after a long search I have been unable to find a simple clean solution to this problem. These are the the options I have been looking at:   I have tried to adapt a previous .bst file: concretely, apsrev4-1.bst, which has a similar format. Other people have tried this solution before , . However, it is an ugly option. First, it requires going through the script of the .bst and understanding it. Second, the script format used in different .bst files differs (quite annoyingly), so it is not easy to modify them unless you do understand what's written. The above solution is quite hideous and you really lose time on it, so I was wondering: isn't there any software tool (hopefully with a GUI) that does this job? It should, after all, pretty easy to program for a .bst script expert some sort of program to generate .bst files. There are some related questions in this site asking for something similar , ; there I have seen a couple of proposed apps, but going through their manuals they seem not so easy to use. Isn't there some software tool available to generate a .bst in less than 1 hour of work?   Remarks: ideally I would like to use/personalize/create .bst styles that support eprint fields (e.g. aps4-1.bst). Real Analysis, Folland Problem 1.3.15 Measures Given a measure $\mu$ on $(X,M)$, define $\mu_0$ on $M$ by $$\mu_0(E) = \sup\{\mu(F): F\subset E \ \text{and} \ \mu(F) &lt; \infty\}$$ a.) $\mu_0$ is a semifinite measure. It is called the semifinite part of $\mu$. b.) If $\mu$ is semifinite, then $\mu = \mu_0$ (Use Exercise 14) c.) There is a measure $\nu$ on $M$ (in general, not unique) which assumes only the values of $0$ and $\infty$ such that $\mu = \mu_0 + \nu$.  The proof of Exercise 14 can be found  For a.) I believe we need to show that $\mu_0(E) = \infty$. Perhaps we can do this by proof of contradiction, similarly to what the proof in the link above does (actually it seems identical). For b.) I am not sure how we can show $\mu = \mu_0$ I think maybe we have to show by construction that $\mu \leq \mu_0$ and $\mu \geq \mu_0$ For c.) I haven't any idea for. Any suggestions is greatly appreciated. Is named indexer property possible? Why are we limited to six questions per day? Reclassifying only part of raster keeping rest unchanged? I'm trying to reclassify only a certain part of a raster...not the entire raster.  Here's the problem.  I have a LULC raster of the entire US.  There are some issues with the raster that I want to fix, namely some cells that should be water are classified as wetlands.  These are mainly off the coast, not inland.  However, some cells that are classified as wetlands should really be wetlands (mainly inland) and I don't want these to change.  I plan on using a ZIP Code boundary file to determine which cells are considered "off the coast" and which ones are not.  I have access to ArcGIS 10.1 and R with the appropriate raster packages I need so a solution in either software would be fine.  Can anyone help me figure this out? "Thought you'd never ask" is "I thought you'd never ask" with "I" omitted. "Hope this helps" is "I hope this helps" with "I" omitted.   In English grammar, normally every sentence should have a subject, right?   My first thought is that these two examples are so often used that they are like set phrases. But these are not really set phrases. You can alter the words after "thought" and "hope".  Another possible explanation is the tendency to drop the subject if it is the first person pronoun. It seems that in many languages, such as Spanish, Italian and Japanese, the first person subject is usually omitted. Maybe English is going the same way? (Not exactly the same, since in Italian, verb forms change according to the person, so the subject is not necessary to understand who one's referring to.)  And, apparently, such omission is more common in spoken English than in written English.  Are there more examples of such first person subject omission? How frequent is it? Why would Mystique's DNA allow for Sentinels that can duplicate mutant powers? One of the assumptions I make as GM is that the players should always be in the spotlight.  Sometimes the players find themselves in a situation where they watch NPCs speak to each other.  I don't like using this kind of situation, because it forces the players to watch me talk to myself and that turns them from active participants into an audience.  Usually I handle it by avoiding the situation.  I try not to write scenes that the players watch.  Instead the players speak to the NPCs one at a time.  When I do come across an exchange between NPCs I opt to summarize the conversation instead of acting it out.    I don't like this limitation though.  It gets a little contrived when all conversations in the game feature 5 PCs and 1 NPC.  Any suggestions? Either how to avoid doing it, or how to effectively role play a conversation between two (or more) NPCs that the characters may or may not be interacting with?   How do you keep clear which character is speaking? How do you make sure that the conversation feels like a real one and not like one person playing both roles? I want to communicate between several computers on my network (static Ethernet), through SSH. In order to do that I need to run ssh-add every time I log in on a specific machine, how can I do it so that it's set up once and it doesn't ask me for the passphrase every time I log in or reboot my machine?  I know that there is a way that you should add some lines to the bash_profile file, but I still need to type the password every time I reboot/log in to a specific machine.  if [ -z "$SSH_AUTH_SOCK" ] ; then     eval `ssh-agent -s`     ssh-add fi The full prophecy by Trelawney, the part my question is about in bold:     "The one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord approaches ... born to those who  have thrice defied him, born as the seventh month dies ... and the Dark Lord will mark him as his equal, but he will have power the Dark Lord knows not ... and either must die at the hand of the other for neither can live while the other survives ... the one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord will be born as the seventh month dies ..."    – Sybill Trelawney (to Dumbledore)    I am interpreting      for neither can live while the other survives   as: Harry can't live while Voldemort survives and vice versa. But why? It clearly worked until the end of book 7. One could argue with Dumbledore's thery of the self-fulfilling prophecy. But clearly Voldemort was smart enough to see that there was no mechanism that would kill him just because Harry stayed alive.    and either must die at the hand of the other    Again: Why? If somebody else destroyed all Horcruxes and then killed Harry, Voldemort would be just as vulnerable and could be killed by anyone. On the other hand, Harry could have been killed by anyone - his mum's protection transferred to Voldemort by Harry's blood was only helping against Voldemort.  I guess that I am interpreting this part of the prophecy in the wrong way or maybe there is an alternate, less obvious and more tricky one. So my question is: What exactly does the highlighted part of Trelawney's prophecy state? How do I choose an element from a non-empty set? Suppose I have a non-empty set $A$.     How do I choose an element $x\in A$?   More precisely, I believe I would like to find a formula $P(x,y)$ of ZF such that for every non-empty set $y$ there is exactly one $x\in y$ such that $P(x,y)$ is true.  I have thought about this for a while without success and I am beginning to doubt such a formula is even possible. But in mathematical proofs it is quite common to "choose a fixed element" from a non-empty set. So how exactly do we achieve such a thing? Am I missing something?  Thank you in advance. I have a pretty simple table that needs to span multiple pages. This seems like a job for either the / package or the  package.   The voting on the answers to this  suggest that longtable is the preferred package, yet xtab is much newer and has been revised since that question was asked.  What are the differences between xtab and longtable and when is one preferable to the other?
