My bachelors lists my maiden name. I took a 4 year break - during which I got married and took my husband's last name - and will soon be starting my masters and eventually PhD in a STEM field. I would like to use my maiden name on my degrees and professionally. I have not published and am not yet established in my field. My married name is extremely ordinary in the US and shared with a well known celebrity. My maiden name is very unique. It may seem arbitrary, but when I do eventually publish and become established in the field, I would like to do so with distinction. I'd like to use my maiden name consistently throughout my professional life, not just in publications but on resumes, staff, in person, etc. Is this legally possible since I didn't retain my maiden name at all? Hyphenating would be way too long and sound weird. I like my middle name, but I would consider adding my maiden name as a second middle name if that is my only option. Thoughts? Comments?
I have a question about my choice of name for publication.  I recently got married and legally changed my name to my husband's surname (for example's sake: from Hunter to Jones). So, despite legally being Ms Jones now, I would quite like to use the hyphenated name Hunter-Jones in the professional context and in publications. This is so that people realise that it is still me and so that I can somewhat keep my maiden name.  Is this possible or do I have to use my legal name professionally and when publishing? Thank you for any help
This is a question thats been bothering me a while. I don't even know if it makes sense or not (like if it is a physics question or becoming a philosophical one). But here it goes. The crux of my question basically is that we all know that we can't see light (like in its photon or electromagnetic wave form) directly when it is traveling past us. However, we also know that the way we see objects is by light reflecting off them. This then means that we are "seeing" the light reflecting from the object which then sends the signal to our brain saying that we are seeing a particular object. We know that both light traveling past us and light reflected from objects are made of photons (so they are the same kind)? So then my question is that what is happening to the photon of a light after it is reflected from the objects, that causes us to see it or the object, but on the other hand we can't see light as it is directly traveling past us. Entire function $f$ such that $|f(z)| ≤ K |z|^3$ for $|z|\ge1$ and $f(z) = f(iz)$ for every $z∈C$ Let $f(z)$ be an entire function such that for some constant $K$ , $|f(z)| ≤ K$ $|z|^3&lt;$ for $|z|\ge1$ and $f(z) = f(iz)$ $∀z∈C$ , then which of the following are correct ?  (A)$ f(z) = Kz^3$ $∀ z∈\Bbb{C}$ (B) $f(z)$ is a constant function (C) $f(z)$ is quadratic function (D) No such $f$ exists   My attempt : I can deduce that since $f(z) = f(iz)$ and since $i^4=1 \implies f$ must involve only fourth powers of $z$ . Hence $f(z)=a_1z^4+b_1z^8+c_1z^{16}+ \cdots $-------(1)  Also for $|z| \ge 1 $: let C.   Then $|g(z)| = |f(z)|/|z^3| \le k$ => By the Cauchy estimate theorem we can prove that :  $f(z)/z^3$ is a constant function $= c $   $\implies f(z)=cz^3$ for $|z| &gt; 1$     ...........(2)  From (1) and (2) ; we get  there does not exist a function like this ?  My textbook answer says it's a constant function ? High CPU usage by "System" and "System interrupts" (caused by ACPI.sys) I have a laptop, which was running Windows 8.1 x64 without any problems. Now with Windows 10 x64 installed, Task Manager constantly shows unusual CPU usage by "System" and "System interrupts". To solve this, I already tried the following, without success:   Disabling and uninstalling all non-essential drivers. Installing newer drivers than the ones that were automagically installed (if available). Disabling/enabling fast boot option. Disabling all of the non-essential services. Sysprep. Resetting BIOS to defaults and various combinations of settings. Flashing BIOS to the latest available version. Clean install from the same media that I use for other PCs. Installing all of the updates offered in Windows Update to this day. Windows Performance Recorder / Analyzer.   I'm not very familiar with Windows Performance Analyzer, so I'm hoping someone here can point me in the right direction - what exactly should I look for, to figure out which device/driver is the culprit. Or, if there's any other approach to figuring out this problem?  For the brave souls, here's my  and a screenshot of the problem: Kepler problem in time: how do two gravitationally attracted particles move? Two particles with initial positions and velocities $r_1,v_1$ and $r_2,v_2$ are interacting by the inverse square law (with G=1), so that  $$ {d^2r_1\over dt^2} = - { m_2(r_1-r_2)\over |r_1-r_2|^3} $$ $$ {d^2r_2\over dt^2} = - { m_1(r_2-r_1)\over |r_1-r_2|^3} $$  (the inverse square law along the line of separation). What is the complete solution of these differential equations? What is the position of the two objects as a function of time?  After reading a lot on Wikipedia, I've come to the definition of center of mass and relative coordinates:   $$R(t) ~=~ \frac{m_1 r_1 + m_2 r_2}{m_1+m_2}$$  $$\ddot{r}(t) r(t)^2 ~=~ (m_1+m_2)G$$  Where $R$ is the center of mass, and $r$ is the displacement between the particles... Is this correct? How do I proceed to solve the differential equation? Looking for illustrator script to swap all objects with another I have a map with small circles for over 200 cities. I need to change all of the circles into map pins. Is there a way to do this? I think it's a script maybe.   I know how to select all objects of the same appearance and give them a new graphic style but that will only let me change the color, stroke, etc. not replace with a new shape. Old Budrys(?) end-of-world/alien invasion of NYC story This one, from the late 1950s or early 60s (I think), features the last girl in NYC, who drives her jeep up the stairs of the main library (with the lions). She feels bad about breaking the lock, but what's a girl to do, if she wants something to read? In summertime, she drives topless and, the author writes, her bosom dances enchantingly on the steps. She lives in the boathouse on the lake in Central Park. Mysterious insect-like aliens are eating the buildings in the City.... I didn't recognize a title in Budrys or Bester's isfdb bibliogs, so I may be wrong about the author. But not about the story details: it's a memorable one. Thanks in advance for helping ID this one!

What is the best way to iterate over a dictionary? Crossbow Expert Feat... for Spells? I was thinking about creating a wizard character. Reviewing the spellcasting rules, I saw this:  Most spells that require attack rolls involve ranged attacks. Remember that you have disadvantage on a ranged attack roll if you are within 5 feet of a hostile creature that can see you and that isn't incapacitated (see chapter 9).  There are a lot of occasions that might arise that would make this a problem, or at least a bit of a hindrance. So as a D&amp;D player normally would when they wanted to break a rule without actually cheating, I went to a list of feats and found Crossbow Expert:  Thanks to extensive practice with the crossbow, you gain the following benefits: You ignore the loading quality of crossbows with which you are proficient. Being within 5 feet of a hostile creature doesn't impose disadvantage on your ranged attack rolls. When you use the Attack action and attack with a one handed weapon, you can use a bonus action to attack with a hand crossbow you are holding.  I may be (am) overthinking things, but does this apply to magic attacks, such as cantrips like Eldritch Blast or Fire Bolt? The literal meaning of the feat says that I can, but it could also imply by the title and also the effects of the feat that this only applies to crossbows, or any other ranged weapon, excluding magic. The strongest evidence that it might not affect ability with ranged magic attacks is:  Thanks to extensive practice with the crossbow  With a crossbow, not with magic. What is the reasoning that leads one to postulate this second form for the relativistic particle action? The action for the free relativistic particle with worldline $\gamma : I\subset \mathbb{R}\to M$ is  $$S[\gamma]=-m\int d\lambda\sqrt{-\dot{\gamma}^a(\lambda)\dot{\gamma}_a(\lambda)}\tag{1} $$  Now, one may postulate a second action  $$S'[\gamma,\eta]=\frac{1}{2}\int d\lambda \bigg(\eta(\lambda)^{-1}\dot{\gamma}^a(\lambda)\dot{\gamma}_a(\lambda)-\eta(\lambda)m^2\bigg).\tag{2}$$  These are classically equivalent actions.  My question is: usually what we have is (1) and we have a problem both with the square root and with the massless limit. Given this, how could we think about postulating (2)? In other words, how can we reach (2)?  Usually some people answer this by saying: "it doesn't matter, actions are postulated, you postulate it, compute the equations, prove it works and its over".  Now I beg to differ. I want to know how could someone reason exactly in order to know what to postulate.   I am perfectly comfortable with computing the equations of motion. I want to know is how given (1) we would have the idea to postulate (2).  Is it some special case of some general procedure that deals with constraints? I recently got my Blacksmithing skill to 100. Now in the skills menu I can press space to make it Legendary, which will put it back to a skill level of 15 and reset my perks.  I am wondering: What benefit is there from making a skill Legendary apart from being able to level up the skill more thus having infinite levels? Defer SP.RequestExecutor.executeAsync I'm working on a SharePoint app where I need to run SP.RequestExecutor.executeAsync() in order to grab some information from one of the Host Web's lists. Depending on what method is calling the oData call I want to do something different.   Unfortuntely, executor.executeAsync() isn't playing as nice as $.ajax() does in terms of using $.when().done() and executing code after an async call is made.

Earlier I asked a question about  and got the answer that while it is only necessary for anonymous types, that it is used nonetheless to make writing code 'quicker'/easier and 'just because'.  Following  I saw that var gets compiled down to the correct type in the IL (you will see it about midway down article).  My question is how much more, if any, IL code does using the var keyword take, and would it be even close to having a measurable level on the performance of the code if it was used everywhere? Resize Move Partitions on Dual Boot System Introductory biology text for an outsider I'm a maths major and I have an interest in learning biology.

Ubuntu 16.10 Wifi Trouble - RT2561/RT61 Will I be able to play my Destiny Characters if I buy Legendary Edition (PS3) Can the "Sacrifice (this card):" activated ability be placed back on the stack? This is a broad question so for simplicity I will use  and .  Scenario 1: Common exchange- creating a baseline.   Player A uses Naturalize on Seal of Fire  Player B Sacrifices SoF in response. SoF is highest on the stack and goes off first.  This leaves Naturalize without a valid target.   Scenario 2: Complicated exchange- Is this legal?   Player B Sacrifices SoF. In response Player A targets it with Naturalize. SoF is on the stack and it's ability has not resolved. Player B (as above) sacrifices SoF in response to the Naturalize.    Can Seal of Fire be placed back on the stack by re-activating its ability, potentially with a new target? HDMI/Displayport audio control for OS X
