How can I make a macOS Mojave bootable USB installer in Windows 10? Material setings in properties window is missing How to convert milliseconds into human readable form? I need to convert an arbitrary amount of milliseconds into Days, Hours, Minutes Second.  For example: 10 Days, 5 hours, 13 minutes, 1 second. Suppose I have a paper with the following text:     Roses are red, violets are blue, sugar is sweet, and so are you [3],[4].   As one can see, the author got the information from two other references. If I want to add this information in my thesis, do I also have to reference [3] and [4] or can I just reference this particular paper, I got the information from? Show $||Tx||_2 \leq ||(v_n)||_2 \cdot ||x||_{\infty}$ Let $(v_n)_{n \geq 1} \in \ell ^2$ be a fixed bounded sequence of real numbers. Define a mapping $T$ on $\ell ^{\infty}$ using the formula $$T(a_1, a_2,...)=(v_1a_1,v_2a_2,...), \, \, \, \, \, x=(a_1,a_2,...) \in \ell^{\infty}$$  We can use the fact that, $Tx \in \ell^2 $ for every $x \in \ell^{\infty}$ and $T: (\ell^{\infty},||\cdot ||_{\infty}) \rightarrow (\ell^{2},||\cdot ||_{2})$ is a linear operator.  Show $||Tx||_2 \leq ||(v_n)||_2 \cdot ||x||_{\infty}$ for all $x \in \ell^{\infty}$    Here is what I tried:  $||Tx||_2 = \bigg( \sum v_k^2 a_k^2 \bigg)^{1/2} \leq (||x||_{\infty}^2 \sum v_k^2 )^{1/2}= (||x||_{\infty}^2 ||(v_k)||_2^2 )^{1/2} = ||(v_k)||_2 \cdot ||x||_{\infty}$  Is this OK?

Sometime in the 1970s (I think) I saw a really awful film set in a small town by a lake. The film opened with some people camping out in the woods. One of them was zipped up in a sleeping bag. Something (as yet unidentified) moved in between the sleeping camper and the camera, and we heard a "crunch." When the creature moved off, we saw that it had bitten the head off the camper, causing a fountain of blood to spout of of the neck. Far from being shocking or gory, it was so badly done as to be laughable.  The main story was that these huge and nasty mutated creatures were coming out of the lake and eating people. A local industrial company was under suspicion for poisoning the lake, but repeated water tests showed it to be clean.  In the end, someone had the idea of testing the water at the bottom of the lake, which revealed it to be heavily poisoned with mercury. As mercury is much heavier than water, it had sunk, so the previous tests (done from a small row boat) had missed it as they only sampled the water at the surface.  They got it all sorted out eventually, and the bad guys ended up in prison.  After the credits had rolled, and you thought it was all over, another monster reared up in front of the camera and roared. I think we were supposed to go "Oh no, it's not all over!" However, the few people stupid enough not to have left by now laughed at the ridiculous sight and left, shaking their heads wondering why they had bothered!  I have a morbid fascination to see it again. Anyone have any idea what it was called? How does Mage Armor interact with Unarmored Defense? Install Ubuntu, you can not continue As we all know that Kurama's chakra is of the healing nature type. This is known from many mentions about it in the wiki page of .  My question is, what is the nature type of the chakra of the other Tailed beasts?  Note: This is my thinking why there should have been a nature type to each of the tailed beasts.   As we all know that when Rikudō Sennin was about to die, he split his powers among his two sons (the older son inherited his powerful chakra and spiritual energy, and the younger son inherited his powerful life force and physical energy). Similarly, when creating the nine tailed beasts from the Shinju, he must have split the chakra based on their nature so that each tailed beast had a unique natured chakra.  Any insight on this would be very much welcomed. This is my follow up question. My previous question is here:   Problem:  If I add the image in my table, I get the following output as shown in the image below. Why is the Co-Supervisor going below?   I am using this code:  \begin{tabular}{|l|c|r|} \hline \bf Author: &amp; \hspace{5pt} &amp; \bf Research Supervisor:\\ \hline Mr. X &amp;  \hspace{5pt} &amp; Prof. Dr. Z\\ \hline \includegraphics[width=0.40\textwidth,height=10mm]{Figures/images} &amp;  \hspace{5pt} &amp; \bf Co-Supervisor:\\ \hline &amp;  \hspace{5pt} &amp; Prof. Dr. Y\\ \hline \end{tabular}   What I want is shown below:   PS: Please ignore the table borders, they are for demo only, I won't be using them in my final code.  The final product: that I desire is: When speaking with my mother a couple of days ago, I read to her a message I was sending to my cousin on her behalf ending with: "... the birthday of your youngest." [implying her child]  She immediately leapt on this and said that as my cousin only had two children, the use of the superlative was not permitted and the comparative must be used instead: "... the birthday of your younger child."  She was adamant that this was a solid grammatical rule that she was taught throughout her education.  As a younger Briton, I have relatively little formal grammatical education to older people who were better taught in this regard, so I usually defer to her on grammatical rule knowledge.  Is she right?  Are superlatives not permitted when the domain of the object is only two?  To me it seems bizarre.  The minimum or maximum of any set does not only exist when there are different minima and maxima, or indeed something which is neither. Virtual vs Real image What forces affect the value of my ETF? How can you quickly get the complete path to a file for use in terminal? I need to run IE 10 in 32-bit mode on 64-bit Windows 7 Enterprise N.  When I run IE 10 from "C:\Program Files (x86)\Internet Explorer" I can see in task manager that I have only one process "iexplorer.exe" and no process "iexplorer.exe *32".  I have an application with an ActiveX that is supported only on 32-bit, and the application can't be loaded on 64-bit mode.  Is there a way I can force IE10 to run in 32-bit mode? What is the correct way to install proprietary ATI Catalyst Video Drivers (fglrx) directly from AMD? I am planning on doing a fresh install of Ubuntu and want to know what is the correct way to install ATI Catalyst Video Driver?      There are multiple valid answers for this question spanning over several versions of Ubuntu. For your convenience an index of each below: Manually installing a program on Debian I have installed Debian on my pc, but the problem is that at the moment I have no Internet connection to this pc. So, to install a program I have to manually downloaded from a pc with internet and then install it to the linux-debian computer.  The question is this: Is there a standard way to make the installation manually? Note that when I connect a usb flash with the program I want to install(that is:   cdparanoia_3.10.2+debian-10.1_i386.deb) and I try opening it I get the message:     Failed to execute child process “ar” no file or directory. What is the meaning of the beta-coefficient for an interaction term in a crossover study? I have asked a similar question here:  I am puzzled by the interpretation for an interaction term. In my data my Y is an interval variable with the health outcome of an experiment. I have used an interaction term in which I have interacted the condition with the predisposition of the subject considering health status at base level. They are both categorical variables (factor variables in R).  Now it gets complicated because the Condition was two treatments: in treatment A subjects got the placebo first and then the real medicine whereas in treatment B they go the real medicine first and the placebo second. All it changes is the order.   Health outcome = a + Condition * Health.Base   I have the worst state of health at the base level as my reference category I find that interaction with the Condition is statistically significant but I am not sure how to interpret this.  I use the lm() function of R (although my design looks more like an ANOVA) and in the output I get the b coefficient in an output that looks like this:  ConditionB:Health.Base.So.and.So         (Beta and p-value) ConditionB:Health.Base.Excellent         (Beta and p-value)   A statistically significant interaction term for those in Excellent health at baseline would mean that they are affected by the Condition B more than Condition A compared to the reference category people (Poor health at baseline). Is this right? What does the beta-coefficient represent?   If I would like to examine for each Health category at the base line separately without comparing to a reference category I would have to code each category as a dummy variable. However, in this case I would compare whether membership to a specific health status at the base line significantly changes between conditions compared to those who belong to the other health statuses at the base line. Is this right? Again, what does the beta-coefficient represent?  Would it be right to assume that the choice of the interaction between the Condition and the dummy variables is easier to interpret?  --- EDIT --- R output:  Call: lm(formula = HealthOutcome ~ Condition * HealthStatus,      data = datA)  Residuals:     Min      1Q  Median      3Q     Max  -1.5957 -0.5942 -0.2640  0.4423  2.4423   Coefficients:                                        Estimate Std.

Suppose there is a sentence in question form, like the one appearing below:     Where do you belong to?   Now, if a speaker refers to that question, he will frame another sentence and will place the question in the quotation marks in that sentence, like what is appearing below:     They said, "Where do you belong to?"   Now, if the speaker wants to convert this sentence too in question form, he will put the original question in another question, like what is appearing below:     What did they mean by saying "Where do you belong to?"   Now, if the speaker wants to rephrase this sentence, it would become as follows:     By saying "Where do you belong to?" what did they mean?    My question is how the 4th sentence is to be punctuated. It has two question marks in it. Does the sentence correctly take two question marks? If so, why will the 3rd sentence not take two question marks − one, just before the closing inverted commas and, the second, just after those commas? The 4th sentence and the 3rd sentence are all same, except being a bit different in placement of the words. Will they take two different sets of punctuation marks?
