Ming the Minotaur Gladiator took it really bad during the "undead night fight" event at the Westgate arena.  He got some negative levels while fighting some vampires. Eeek.  Now 24h later, he made all his saves, except one. He is ....  Can he lose one of his monster HD (instead of a level of fighter, for example)?
What happens when one is affected by something such as energy drain, and permanently loses levels when one only has racial HD? Does the victim of the spell die? Or do they permanently lose racial HD?
What's the purpose (if any) of "javascript:" in event handler tags? I've been making a concerted effort to improve my javascript skills lately by reading as much javascript code as I can. In doing this I've sometimes seen the javascript: prefix appended to the front of event handler attributes in HTML element tags. What's the purpose of this prefix? Basically, is there any appreciable difference between:  onchange="javascript: myFunction(this)"   and  onchange="myFunction(this)"   ? Understand PAM and NSS In the last days I have set up some Linux system with LDAP authentication and everything works fine, but there's still something I can't really understand regarding NSS and PAM, also after a lot of research. Citing:  NSS allows administrators to specify a list of sources where authentication files, host names and other information will be stored and searched for  and  PAM is a set of libraries that provide a configurable authentication platform for applications and the underlying operating system  What I don't understand is how PAM and NSS work and interact together. In  the architecture is explained pretty well: I configure PAM to use pam_ldap for LDAP accounts and pam_unix for local accounts, then I configure nsswitch.conf to fetch information from local files and LDAP. If I have understood correctly LDAP is used twice: first by pam_ldap and then by NSS which is itself called from pam_unix. Is that right? Is LDAP really used twice? But why do I need to configure both NSS and PAM? My explanation is that PAM performs different tasks than NSS and it is used by other programs. But, then, it should be possible to use only NSS or only PAM, as I have read in . So I experimented a bit and I have first tried to delete LDAP from the nsswitch.conf (and the authentication stopped to work as if only pam_ldap is not enough to do the job). Then I re-enabled LDAP in NSS and I deleted it from the PAM configuration (this time everything worked fine, as if pam_ldap is useless and NSS is enough to authenticate a user). Is there anyone who can help me to clarify this? Many thanks in advance. UPDATE I've just tried something now. I removed again all the pam_ldap entries in all pam configuration fields and I have also removed shadow: ldap from nsswitch.conf. As now in all the system there are only the lines: passwd: ldap files and group: ldap files in nsswitch.conf. Well... the login with LDAP users works perfectly, those two lines (plus /etc/ldap.conf) are enough to configure LDAP auth. From my knowledge PAM in independent from NSS, but my tests showed it's not. So I ask myself is it possible to completely disable NSS and use only PAM? Suppose that $a_1,a_2, \cdots, a_n$ are $n$ different integers. Then $[(x-a_1)(x-a_2) \cdots (x-a_n)]^2 +1$ is irreducible over $\mathbb Q$.   I've no idea why it is true. Thanks very much. Book about almost extinct warrior race with three castes: sen, kaa, ker The aliens in this book are an humanoid alien mercenary race, fighting for some other aliens, against humans?.   The Ker are the fighters, the sen are the wise ones, and the kaa the family/non-fighters.  Their clan gets almost wiped out because both their employers and humanity fear them, and the last survivors head towards their race' home planet, together with a human captive, who learns about their ways.  The other aliens are some blob-like aliens with little genetic variety.  Ring any bells? "There Is"/"There are" depends on plurality of the first list element or not? I am currently in need of using apt-get on a chroot directory. The setup is the following.  I have a chroot setup with schroot. This chroot environment needs to be stripped down as much as possible. Therefore I am planning to remove apt-get and commin from the chroot environment.  I know that Gentoo has the possibility to use portage on a different root directory. Is this possible to set a different root directory for apt.get to install software into my chroot directory?  Thanks in advance 80s-90s anime (movie or series) in which an armored girl exchanges age with a dying man on a beach This problem is from Discrete Mathematics and its Applications  My question is on 9b. I know that the sign represents an element is a member of. (from book)  I know that the O with a slash across it is the empty set which &quot;is a special set that has no elements&quot;. From , I got that the empty set is a subset of all sets, meaning that every member of the empty set(nothing) is also a member of any other set. Based on all of this, for 9b, would {0} contain the empty set because it fundamentally has the elements that consist of the empty set(nothing) or does it physically have to have the empty set? Add a UIButton as a subview to a UITabBar How do I block unwanted callers without jailbreaking? For years I've been trying to find this movie I saw on TV once.  I only saw the end.  It featured a teenage boy (about 18 years old) and his family hiding out in a cabin.  The kid is making molotov cocktails and preparing for something.  Sure enough two bad guys show up and I think one of them had a golden pistol.  They start fighting and one of the guys turns into a werewolf type creature.  The kid wounds it and tracks it through the woods to finish it off with his lever action rifle.  Anyone know the name of this movie?  I saw this probably mid to late 90s.  I'm guessing it was an 80's American film. It was live action. Rotate group of objects over an edge What is behind the definitions of work and energy? Why do I need 50 reputation to comment?

My grandparents will drive only on roads recommended in printed travel guides; they'll ask the rental car company if Waipio Valley Road and the road to the top of Mauna Kea are sanctioned.       A rented 4WD vehicle is allowed by law to travel ANY public roadway in Hawaii. AND there are some places that require a 4WD vehicle.      [...]      If you travel down into  or to the top of , you are legally allowed to do so, but your rental company will expect you to pay for any damage incurred whether you selected the insurance or not, as the insurance is null and void when you violate the contract.        I do not believe a 4x4 rental is necessary for 99% of visitors. For the other 1%, "necessary" is too strong a word!      But, being in that "1%" category, there ARE worthy places to go on the BI that require 4x4 (the kind you can rent from a normal rental outlet, not the kind locals may drive). I won't publicize those places because I don't want such places to become overused. [I bolded.] Just don't believe it when you read here that there is absolutely no place at all worth visiting that would require 4x4.    I doubt the Tripadvisor comments overhead, as none of them discussed potholes:          Please see the bolded phrase. Where on the BI requires an SUV? Selecting features that do NOT intersect in ArcGIS Desktop? How many arguments does a function require, and how to use that in `Manipulate` Joining two rigged models I currently trying to join two rigged (and animated) models, which both has separate meshes, separate bones and separate animations. The first mesh is the horse while the second mesh is human:   So I am interested to join human model onto horse model to make a rider:   I think the best way would be to make horse as a parent and human as a child during the join process. In that case I would like that all horse animations (there are 3 of them - idle, walk and run) would remain as they are, while I can lose human animations, as I will need different ones for it. I was also thinking to make human root bone as a child of one horse back bones, that when horse moves up and down it would move entire human mesh together. It would be also good to keep the same weights that human bones would not start deforming horse mesh and vice versa.  I tried to use Ctrl+J by selecting various combinations between bones and meshes in object mode, however, I noticed that it messes up scaling and rotation of the child object. So I was wondering how it would be possible to properly join these models to create a rider?

When I switch to Layout View I want to be able to show the map in a data frame element and the table in another element (something that one could do with "Add Table To Layout" from Table Options, but I want to do this in one step without having to go to Table Options).   Is there a way to do this using ArcPy?   I couldn't find any function in the ArcPy library that would create a new Layout Element ... and then I also don't know how to add the contents of the table to the Layout Element.
