I am an Indian Citizen, with a valid H1B visa and I am traveling to Europe for my vacation. I will be getting a Schengen Visa from the consulate of my destination. I wanted to ask if I have a stop at LHR (or any airport in UK for that matter), will I need a transit visa?   The layover will be on the same calendar day (about 10 hours or less), and I do not want to get out of the airport.  I did check online resources like:     And it says that I will not require it.   I checked at this link:  And it says I do need it:     You’ll need a visa to pass through the UK in transit (unless you’re exempt)      You should apply for a Direct Airside Transit visa if you arrive in the UK on a flight and leave again without passing through immigration control.   Exemptions      You don’t need a visa if you have one of the following:         a visa for Canada, New Zealand, Australia or the USA (this can be used for travel to any country)   a residence permit issued by Australia or New Zealand   a common format residence permit issued by an European Economic Area (EEA) country or Switzerland   a resident permit issued by Canada after 28 June 2002   a uniform format category D visa for entry into a country in the European Economic Area (EEA) or Switzerland   an Irish biometric visa (marked ‘BC’ or ‘BC BIVS’ in the ‘Remarks’ section)   a Schengen Approved Destination Scheme (ADS) group tourism visa where the holder is travelling to the Schengen country that issued the visa   a flight ticket from the Schengen area, if you can prove that you entered the Schengen area in the previous 30 days on the basis of a valid Schengen ADS visa   a valid USA I-551 Temporary Immigrant visa issued by the USA (a wet-ink stamp version will not be accepted)   a valid USA permanent residence card issued by the USA on or after 21 April 1998   an expired USA I-551 Permanent Residence card issued by the USA on or after 21 April 1998, with a valid I-797 letter authorising extension   a valid standalone US Immigration Form 155A/155B issued by the USA (attached to a sealed brown envelope)      I don't see any exemption criteria that qualifies a H1B Visa holder with a valid Schengen visa to transit without a transit-visa.  In case I do need it, how long does it usually take? I have about 30 days before I travel.  Note: Last year I had a stop in Toronto, and I found that I need a transit visa the hard way. The airline didn't warn me until I tried to check-in into the flight the day before, and as a result I had to do a last minute change which was very expensive. So this time I want to confirm/assure to avoid the last minute stress.
Is there a website or some other way to find out if I need a transit visa for a short stop in the UK on my way somewhere else? Ideally this should give me the answer for all nationalities, and take into account any other visas I may have.
I am working in Illustrator (15.0.2 (CS5) or 16.0.0 (CS6)) and when I try to move objects small distances, they snap to the nearest two pixels on some invisible grid. I can't find anything in the preferences. Here are some screen shots: I'm running CentOS 7.0 build 1503. I'm trying to search for commands I don't know the name of by searching the man descriptions for multiple keywords using AND (e.g. search for a command containing the both words "create" and "group" in the description).  So I came across the command apropos (which is an alias for man -k). The default behaviour when given multiple keywords is to return any command matching any of the keywords, which isn't what I want. According to the man page the option -a specifies using AND, to return matches only when all words match.  But this isn't what I'm seeing in practice, so I need some help here - e.g. using Centos 7, if I do:  apropos create user   I see a huge list of commands, seemingly matching any command with create or user in the description, as expected. Noting the list includes an entry for the command 'useradd (8) - create a new user...'.  If I do:  apropos -a create user   I only get 2 commands (environ and open). This is what I'm confused by - I would expect it to return the command 'useradd (8) - create a new user', because i can see from the previous search that command does contain those words in the description. Also the 2 returned commands don't obviously seem to be anything about creating users. What am I doing wrong? I'm sure it's something embarrassingly obvious, for that I apologise in advance.

How do I get a list of all subdomains of a domain? I want to find out all the subdomains of a given domain. I found a hint which tells me to dig the authoritative Nameserver with the following option:  dig @ns1.foo.bar some_domain.com axfr   But this never works. Has anyone a better idea/approach I may have missed it with the 3D, but I could have sworn I saw what I suspect was a lady Dwarf or two running from the Erebor in the beginning of the Hobbit, but they didn't seem bearded.    If dwarf women aren't bearded, then was Aragorn just kidding in the Two Towers (movie) when he intimated that they all had beards?    It's also stated by Tolkien in appendix A to The Lord of the Rings that female dwarves appear identical to males and we can assume they are also born with beards, just like their male counterparts. How to explain the different forms of the Hamilton-Jacobi equation? In Arnold's Mathematical Methods of Classical Mechanics, he derives the Hamilton-Jacobi equation (HJE) using a generating function $S_1(Q, q)$ to get  $$ H\left(\frac{\partial S_1(Q, q)}{\partial q}, q, t \right) ~=~ K(Q, t). $$  However, this is different from what I've seen in other physics texts. For example, Goldstein uses the generating function $S_2(q, P, t)$ to get the equation  $$ H\left(\frac{\partial S_2(q, P, t)}{\partial q}, q, t\right) ~=~ - \frac{\partial S_2(q, P, t)}{\partial t}. $$  Why is there this difference? Are the two equations saying the same thing? Consider a common proof of the uncountability of $(0,1]$, as presented  for example:  We assume that the reals can be arranged in a sequence $x_k$, represent every number in $x_k$ by its nonterminating decimal expansion, use the diagonal argument to create a sequence of decimal digits that differs from the nonterminating decimal expansion of each number in $x_k$ and then claim that this sequence of digits so generated must be the decimal expansion of some number not in $x_k$.  My problem is with this last step. Could it not be the case that the new sequence of digits is just the terminating decimal expansion of some number already in $x_k$?  Would it not be more correct to use the sequence $x_k$ to generate a sequence of all (both terminating and non-terminating) decimal expansion of all numbers in $[0,1)$ and then apply the diagonal argument? How to choose a good research problem? I am working to get a PhD, maybe next year this time around. Currently, this is my second year. I have published 3 papers. All of them are not about one problem but consider different problems. My strategy to find a research idea/problem is given below.  1 - Read papers whose titles are either interesting or I have some apriori understanding of those titles.  2 - Understand those papers as best as I can. That is, I try to understand each detail presented in the paper except the simulation results (this is because I think simulation results are hard to reproduce).  3 - I analyze the paper and try to find a very small problem which can be addressed (i.e. I can solve it) by the methodology of the paper.  4 - If I am successful at step 3 I start working on that problem otherwise I repeat the process from step 1.  By applying this strategy I have been able to write 3 papers and I have submitted a fourth (I am not satisfied with those papers because at very best they can be considered average papers). But my concern is that the problems addressed in those papers do not belong to one area. As far as I have seen, for the profiles of some of the renowned researchers in my field their PhD work is focused on one area. One main thing I console myself with is that almost all of those researchers had good supervisors. My supervisor does not even read the draft/reviews of my papers and the suggestions that he provides during the meetings are so broad that the problem becomes intractable. Under these circumstances what are your opinions: Is there any better strategy to do research?   I will be very thankful to you for providing me suggestions or commenting on my dilemma. So the problem is that account 1 and account 2 bought a game together, but account 1 isn't used anymore. Can we transfer the game license from account 1 to account 3?

I'm trying to put a bibliography in my LaTeX document, but I get various errors when I run it in BibTeX (saying no \citation found etc.), and no bibliography is printed in the PDF when I typeset it in LaTeX.

"shyer" or "shier" My Longman dictionary states that the comparative of 'shy' is 'shyer'. However, at least two online dictionaries also give the form 'shier' as being acceptable:  and . On an English language  I came across a reference to British (shyer) vs. American (shier) spelling. But an Ngram chart shows that even in American English 'shyer' is much more used.  My problem is that I've been told that it is definitely wrong, but if it's in dictionaries then... has there been a change to what is wrong?   P.S.: Google Chrome won't install on 17.04 I had to remove Chrome to have enough space to upgrade from 16.10 to 17.04.  I downloaded the latest version from Google.
