The Lord Of The Rings appears to be the "One Ring" not Sauron! Sauron himself can't control any ring without one ring. Sauron appears to have no power over the elven rings! If anyone who has enough power to use the One Ring he can control all the other rings and become the lord of the rings. There are many many examples that proves this. I am not sure why people think Sauron is the Lord of the Rings. It appears to me it's the ring of power itself and not Sauron that is the Lord of the Rings. So is it Sauron or the Ring itself that is Lord of the Rings?
Who is the Lord, as referred to in the title? Frodo? Sauron? Someone else? Or is it more of an abstract title, not referring to a single person, like "He who wields the One Ring"?
How can I check for an empty/undefined/null string in JavaScript? Bibliography style elsarticle-num-names with DOI and hyperlinks but no explicit url I prepared my article with elsarticle, using \citep &amp; \citet throughout. I originally used apalike bibliographystyle but now need to change it to elsarticle-num-names for citation formatting requirements (see point #2 below).  Now, I am attempting to make 2 changes:     add DOIs to the bibliography change reference style to [1] for \citep and Author et al. [1] for \citet.   I want to keep hyperref and do not want explicit URLs (only DOIs) but cannot make this work!  Thank you for any help you might have!

It is true that $0.999\cdots=1$ but how does one justifies the integer part of $0.999\cdots$ being 1 , where it is not, or alternatively without using $0.999\cdots=1$ how can we show that  $\lfloor0.999\cdots\rfloor = \lfloor 1 \rfloor$ ? Suppose we have a set  $S=\{a,b\}.$ Obviously, the total number of binary operations on $S$ is the number of all the pairs such that $$*(a,b)=a \, \text{or}  \, b,$$ which gives  $ 2 \cdot 2 \cdot 2 \cdot 2=2^4$ possible ones. Is there a way to find which of these $16$ binary operations are associative without writing all the operation matrices and checking it by hand? Bring all planes in mesh to same level I have added a plane in top view. I have then extruded the plane according to a floorplan in topview.  I don't know what happened, but when I switched my view, I could see that some parts of it are for some reason high up in the air.  I would like to ask how I can bring everything back down onto the grid / floor.  And if somebody could tell me how this might have happened, I would also be glad. A mysterious app named &quot;10102&quot; shows up in my data usage. It bears only the standard Android app icon (the Bugdroid logo with a cube on its torso). From what the graph tells me, it has used 36 megabytes of data in the background and zero on the foreground. I think I haven't uninstalled anything for months. Is it malware? I haven't sideloaded anything and only authorized my laptop as a USB debugger. If it's malware, how do I remove it? I have no idea how to find its package name and 10102 isn't in the list of downloaded apps in settings. I'm running stock &amp; never-been-rooted Android 4.4.4 on Nexus 4. According to the , you can harden a MySQL server by adding passwords, or removing the anonymous accounts.      If you want to prevent clients from connecting as anonymous users   without a password, you should either assign a password to each   anonymous account or else remove the accounts.   Before hardening, my users table looked like this.   mysql&gt; select user,host,password from mysql.user; +------------------+-----------+-------------------------------------------+ | user             | host      | password                                  | +------------------+-----------+-------------------------------------------+ | root             | localhost | *F3A2A51A9B0F2BE246XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX | | root             | gitlab    |                                           | | root             | 127.0.0.1 |                                           | | root             | ::1       |                                           | |                  | localhost |                                           | |                  | gitlab    |                                           | | debian-sys-maint | localhost | *95C1BF709B26A5BAXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX | | myuser           | localhost | *6C8989366EAF75BB6XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX | +------------------+-----------+-------------------------------------------+   I've remove all anonymous accounts, so that the user table now looks like this.

Update2: I found  which has some good information, but does not solve the issue.

I have also manually flushed privileges and also tried restarting mysql.   Update4: I've also tried changing the mysql root password and flushed privileges. No luck, I can still log in as any user without a password. How to give an image or video a TV screen effect? The Sharpshooter feat includes an interesting feature: you can choose to take -5 penalty to hit with a ranged weapon attack to increase its damage by 10. Normally, I'd dismiss the trade-off as too situational, but I've only just thought of combining it with the Archery fighting style (+2 to hit with ranged weapon attacks).  After building a sample character using these features, the end result looks quite effective. My questions are: Is this build valid? Have I interpreted the rules correctly? If so, how well does it compare against other damage-focused builds?  5th level variant Human Fighter:   Ability Scores (via point buy): Str 10, Dex 16, Con 16, Int 9, Wis 12, Cha 10 HP: 47, AC: 17 (or 18 with disadvantage on Stealth) Weapons: Hand Crossbow x 2 Fighting Style: Archery Martial Archetype: Battle Master (with the Precision Attack maneuver) Feat (variant Human): Crossbow Expert Feat (4th level ability score improvement): Sharpshooter   The end result is a fighter capable of hitting targets 120' away, behind 1/2 or 3/4 cover, or engaged in melee with him, all without penalty. Normally, he can make 3 such attacks per round (Attack action + Extra Attack + Crossbow Expert's bonus attack). Once per short rest he can make 5 attacks per round via Action Surge (Attack action 1 + Extra Attack, Attack action 2 + Extra Attack, Crossbow Expert's bonus attack).  His normal attack bonus is +8 (3 proficiency, 3 Dexterity, 2 Archery fighting style), and normal damage is 1d6+3. Not amazing damage, but nice accuracy and flexibility (attacks can be focused on one target, or spread around; works equally well in melee and ranged combat).  The real winner is his ability to take -5 on any of these attack rolls to increase the damage by 10, to an average of 16.5 per shot (excluding crits). If he lands his usual 3 attacks, that's ~47 damage; 5 attacks is ~83. While the -5 to hit seems imposing, he's still got superiority dice: he can increase his attack roll by 1d8 after seeing the result, up to 4 times per short rest. And even without the superiority dice, his attack bonus is still an acceptable +3; ok for hitting low AC targets, or those granting advantage on attack rolls (e.g. surprised or prone + adjacent).  With a decent AC, a Fighter's HP, and the Second Wind feature, he can also take a decent amount of damage. He'll also have decent Strength, Dexterity, and Constitution saving throws.  This build seems almost too well rounded. Unlike a blaster, he only requires short rests to recover his big hitters. Unlike a brawler, he can target just about anything on the field at a moment's notice. Have I missed any rules, or overlooked any drawbacks?

I've found a few tools that can import an obj sequence into blender, but most are outdated and don't work. Are there any scripts or plug-ins that can do that? Asked again to review a paper, when the authors don't wish to modify it I have received a manuscript to review for a journal. The interesting thing is, I had already reviewed this article (exact same title, abstract and author list, almost exact same content) for another journal a few weeks ago where I recommended that it be published, but only after major revisions of both form and content. When I first reviewed it, I wrote a two-page review, listing some questions and several “actionable” comments, ranging from some concerns about exactness of the text (some conclusions didn't seem fully backed by the results) all the way down to trivial stuff (grammar, a few typos, graphic issues with the figures, etc.).  Now, the manuscript has come to me for review again, but it is almost unchanged from the first version. None of the serious stuff has been addressed, and even most of the trivial stuff was not fixed (there's at least one remaining typo, and the figures still aren't fully legible). However, I think this behavior from the authors is clearly a bad signal, which should be somehow conveyed to the editor: they're not willing to amend their work, and would rather do some journal-shopping.  What would you suggest me to do? Should I just re-send my earlier review? Add a note to the editor about my knowledge of the “history” of the paper? Or maybe even include it in my review, so the authors are aware that people know of their behavior, and maybe feel bad enough to change their ways?    PS: I wrote it in the present tense, but it's actually a story from my past. I'm not sure I did the right thing at the time, and I think it's better to actually formulate it as an open question… How do I remotely control another Ubuntu desktop from Ubuntu?
