What sort of exporting format should I be using? Or will I have to re-assign all of the textures again? Thanks.
I have created several designs for a particular project and they are related, but I don't want to have to keep recreating any similar elements, such as shared materials or textures.  How can I use the existing data in a new Blender file?
My chooser (file-picker dialog) goes under the dock so I can't see buttons. What can I do? What is the proper way to write the plural of a single letter? Or a word used as a word ('mention' usage)? (another apostrophe question) When writing (a blog post, script, etc..) what is the proper way to indicate two or more instances of a single letter? For instance, in Monty Python's Bookshop Sketch:     C: I wonder if you might have a copy of "Rarnaby Budge"?      P: No, as I say, we're right out of Edmund Wells!      C: No, not Edmund Wells - Charles Dikkens.      P: (pause - eagerly) Charles Dickens??      C: Yes.      P: (excitedly) You mean "Barnaby Rudge"!      C: No, "Rarnaby Budge" by Charles Dikkens.  That's Dikkens with two Ks, the      well-known Dutch author.      P: (slight pause) No, well we don't have "Rarnaby Budge" by Charles Dikkens      with two Ks, the well-known Dutch author, and perhaps to save time I      should add that we don't have "Karnaby Fudge" by Darles Chickens, or      "Farmer of Sludge" by Marles Pickens, or even "Stickwick Stapers" by Farles      Wickens with four M's and a silent Q!!!!!  Why don't you try W. H. Smith's?      C: Ah did, They sent me here.   I had always believed that plural never uses an apostrophe before the 's' (it's only used for possession), but I have rarely seen in written material the format "four Ms". (On a side note, whoever wrote  also used "two Ks".)  On a side note, and perhaps this should be a separate question, if a Compact Disc is a CD, then two Compact Discs would be two CDs right? (I see "CD's" written everywhere) "They are quite full up this year." if/then/else man page I would like to know if there is any man page documenting the construction of the most basic script commands like if/then/else, while, for each, and all the relative switches, like -eq, -e, -ge, and so on. What are the responsibilities of each Pseudo-Terminal (PTY) component (software, master side, slave side)? I am trying to figure out how a tty works1 (the work-flow and responsibilities of each elements). I have read several interesting articles about it, but there are still some blurry areas.  This is what I understand so far:   The emulated terminal makes different system calls to /dev/ptmx, the master part of the pseudo-terminal. The master part of the pseudo terminal allocates a file in /dev/pts/[0-N], corresponding to the obsolete serial port, and "attaches" a slave pseudo terminal to it. The slave pseudo terminal keeps information such as session Id, foreground job, screen size.   Here are my questions:   Has ptmx any purpose besides allocating the slave part? Does it provide some kind of "intelligence", or the emulated terminal (xterm for instance) has all the intelligence of behaving like a terminal? Why does xterm has to interact with the master part, as it only forwards the stdout and stdin of the slave part? Why can't it directly write and read from the pts file? Is a session ID always attached to one pts file and vice versa? Could I type a ps command and found 2 sessionId for the same /dev/pts/X? What other information does the pts store? Does Xterm update all fields by himself, or does the ptm add some "intelligence" on it?     1. I base my understanding on the , and the  posts, as on several other Search results showing questions without the searched for tag in results Recently, I was surfing on stackoverflow.com &amp; I have found one bug in Question filter.  I was looking under the java tag and yet I saw questions which were not tagged java    The incorrectly shown question was Given a collection of sets $\mathcal{C}$ and $E$ an element in the $\sigma$-algebra generated by $\mathcal{C}$, how do I show that $\exists$ a countable subcollection $\mathcal{C_0} \subset \mathcal{C}$ such that $E$ is an element of the $\sigma$-algebra, $\mathcal{A}$ generated by $\mathcal{C_0}$?    The hint says to let $H$ be the union of all $\sigma$-algebras generated by countable subsets of $\mathcal{C}$....although I don't know why. How to view an encrypted view or stored procedure I am working on a third party database.

Count and limit the number of files uploaded (HTML file input) We consider the differential equation $y'=x+y^2$ and for any $\eta \geq 0$ we denote by $\phi_\eta:(\alpha_\eta,\beta_\eta)\rightarrow\mathbb{R}$ the unique saturated solution of the Cauchy Problem $y'=x+y^2$, $y(0)=\eta$. I am required to do the change of variable $z(x)=y(-x)$ and I succeded here, obtaining $y'(-x)=y^2(-x)-x$ and so $z'(x)=x-z^2(x)$, then I was required to represent the $0-isocline$ and it was also simple as I obtained a parabolla and also I was required to write the equation of the tangent in the point $(0,\eta)$ which was also pretty simple as I obtained $\phi'_\eta(0)=\eta^2$ and the equation of the tangent is $y=\eta+\eta^{2}x$. Now, I am required to find $\phi^{(5)}_0(0)$( that $5$ indicates the number of differentiations), which puzzles me as I don't know the form of the solution and if it can be found out and also I am told to show that $\frac{1}{\eta}\geq\beta_\eta$ What I did not prove after the first edit : and that for $\eta &gt; 0$, $\alpha_\eta=-\infty$ and for the Cauchy problem $z'=x-z^2,z(0)=\eta$ the saturated solution is defined up to $+\infty$. At this last ones I am lost. Any help, please? Edit: I have passed beyond finding $\phi^{(5)}_0(0)$ and I think I did show that $\frac{1}{\eta}\geq\beta_\eta$, now it remains to prove the last questions. For which $n≥2$ does there exist $\sigma\in A_n$ with $|\sigma| &gt; n$? I have a proof that I'd like to be verified. My proof that there exists $\sigma\in A_n$ with $|\sigma| &gt; n$ if and only if $n\geq 8$: For $n&lt;8$, one can manually verify for each $n$ that there is no $\sigma\in A_n$ with order greater than $n$. Suppose $n\geq 8$. Case 1: $n$ is even and $3\not\mid n$. Then the permutation $(1,2,3)(4,\dots,n)$ is even and has order $\operatorname{lcm}(3,n-3)=3n-9\geq n+16-9\geq n + 7$. Case 2: $n$ is even and $3\mid n$. Then $n\geq 12$, so $n-2\geq 8$ is even and is not divisible by 3. Applying Case 1, we see that $(1,2,3)(4,\dots,n-2)\in A_n$ has order at least $n+5$. Case 3: $n$ is odd. Then apply one of the previous two cases with $n-1$ to get an even permutation with order at least $n+4$. $\blacksquare$ Is my proof correct? It doesn't seem very elegant. Is there some slicker proof? Why is methane considered an important greenhouse gas? Methane’s absorption bands are centered at 3.2 and 7.2 microns -- far off the peak of the Planck spectrum for a 290 K blackbody near 16 microns.  Moreover, its absorption bands overlap with the water absorption region.  So why is methane considered a stronger greenhouse gas than carbon dioxide, which has an absorption band at 15 microns?

Valid references on origins of Machine Learning, Statistical Learning and Data Mining How do I execute a command-line program from C# and get back the STD OUT results?

Multiple Installations and Understanding $PATH I have an older version of Git installed at:  /usr/bin/   I recently downloaded a newer version to:  /usr/local/bin   When I type:  which git   I get the location of the old version. I believe that this is just because /usr/bin/ appears before /usr/local/bin in my $PATH variable and so the older version of git is 'found' first.   To test this, I renamed the older version of git to "git_old". Now when I type:  which git   I get the location of the newer version, as expected. But when I type:  git --version   I get the following error:  -bash: /usr/bin/git: No such file or directory   I'm just wondering why my computer is going back to looking in the old location for Git? Define $\mathcal N$  $\mathcal N (A):=\mathcal P(A)\setminus\{\varnothing\}$  Does $\mathcal N$ has a special name and standard notation? Making voltmeter accepting bipolar input voltage, using a microcontroller I want to build a very simple voltmeter using ATMEGA328 ADC. I can successfully measure up to 20v (using a voltage divider), but the problem is, I don't understand how to measure the voltage properly, if negative and positive terminals are switched.   Only way I could think of is adding another ADC input which is responsible for measuring the 'inverted voltage'. The join both ADC inputs, but add diodes in between, so one channel works with (+-) and the other channel works with (-+) and then 'merge' the input from both channels using code. Then I should be able to measure things like sin wave for example (where polarities switch).   Is the concept correct or is there a better way to do this? Thanks!
