I'm really stuck on paraphrasing the sentences bellow using gerund.        That she is so fussy is not a little unpleasant.   What surprised everybody was that he was able to do it.      Here are some of my variants:         It's not a little unpleasant of being her so fussy.   Everybody was surprised by his managing to do it.      I'm not sure if it is correct or not.
I'm stuck on the following phrases. Is it correct to use preposition "of" in the sentences bellow?    It's not a little unpleasant of being her so fussy. It's awfull of him having done this.   Thank you.
This is a doubt from Milnor's "Topology from a Differentiable Viewpoint".     For a smooth $f:M\to N$, with $M$ compact, and a regular value $y\in N$, we define $n(f^{-1}(y))$ to be the number of points in $f^{-1}(y)$. It is easy to see that $n(f^{-1}(y))$ is finite. It can also be seen that $n(f^{-1}(y))$ is locally constant; i.e. there is a neighbourhood of $y$ such that for every point $y'$ in that neighbourhood, $n(f^{-1}(y'))=n(f^{-1}(y))$.   The proof for the statement in bold is the following:     Let $x_1,x_2,\dots,x_n$ be the points of $f^{-1}(y)$, and choose disjoint neighbourhoods $U_1,U_2,\dots,U_n$ of these points, which are mapped diffeomorphically into neighbourhoods $V_1,V_2,\dots,V_n$ of $y$. The required neighbourhood is $(V_1\cap V_2\cap\dots V_n)-f(M-U_1-U_2-\dots U_n)$.   I don't understand how $(V_1\cap V_2\cap\dots V_n)-f(M-U_1-U_2-\dots U_n)$ is open. I know that $(V_1\cap V_2\cap\dots V_n)$ is open. However, how can one prove that $f(M-U_1-U_2-\dots U_n)$ is closed? I can see this working if $f$ is surjective, but not otherwise.

I am currently designing a PCB layout for my team's high current, high voltage project and am having trouble with choosing my trace width.  The circuit is composed of 12 inductors placed in series with short traces connecting them together (about 5mm max length). We are feeding 10μs pulses at ~300A/1000V at a maximum rate of 10 pulses per second by discharching capacitor banks into the coils. The capacitors are recharged by an external source.  I have looked for resources on the subject, but nothing I could find applies to the level of current and voltage we are applying.  Is there a rule for determining trace width for very high current pulses? LaTeX package "titling", titles with hard line breaks, and \MakeUpperCase I have a document with a title that is spread over several lines using hard line breaks. To configure the title formatting, I use the titling package with code adapted from its documentation:  \documentclass{article}  \usepackage{titling} \pretitle{\begin{center}\LARGE\sffamily\bfseries} \posttitle{\par\end{center}\vskip 0.5em}  \title{Higgelty Pigglety Pop! \\ or \\ There Must Be More to Life}  \begin{document} \maketitle \end{document}   …and it works perfectly.  I now want the title additionally to be in all caps and therefore change the \pretitle command:  \pretitle{\begin{center}\LARGE\sffamily\bfseries\MakeUppercase}   …and I get the following error message:  ! Use of \@icentercr doesn't match its definition. &lt;argument&gt; \def  l.12 \maketitle   This only happens with a title that includes hard line breaks.  What does this error message mean? How can I fix it? Variance of sum of $k$ randomly drawn numbers from $1,...,n$. Trouble doing polynomial interpolation Are keywords in URLs good SEO or needlessly redundant? A coworker and I are locked in a debate over the value of SEO keywords in the URL of a page. She wants to change all the filenames of the HTML pages of a fencing company so they look like residential-home-chicago.html, contact-chicago-contractor.html, and so on. She is convinced that because Google highlights keywords in URLs in search results, that means that putting keywords here is more valuable.  My position is that these do not improve SEO, since Google doesn't seem to give keywords in the URL any more weight than keywords in the body of the page, and . In the meantime, they make it harder for me to find the pages I want when its time to edit them, and the site as a whole looks cheap and spammy.   suggests to me that yes, keywords in URLs are useful, but not superior, and that they are more useful for human readability than search engine rankings.  I'm looking for authoritative sources that support either position, not blog articles from SEO optimization companies trying to promote themselves.

Integrate $\int \frac{25 - x^2}{x^4} \operatorname d\!x$ Short story (maybe two in the same collection) about Alien education versus Earth I read this somewhere in the 1990s, but it was probably older. I vaguely remember it as being two stories in sequence in an anthology. One was a story involving an Earth administrator comparing Earth curriculum to Mars curriculum and the second was just a class listing for Martian curriculum.  In the first story, what sticks out in my head was the Earth administrator proudly claiming some high value of WPM for reading for his students and the Martian admitting that their rate was lower, and then added a comment along the lines of that the Martian students, when reading at the rate attained at Earth, could not recall every word of the book and recite them back verbatim. In the curriculum listing, I remember that the physical education classes included Tightrope Walking and Advanced Tightrope Walking. In short, the implication was that Mars held its children, and therefore its citizens, to much higher standards, at the cost of sacrificing actual childhood. The children never played, just studied and drilled.  In retrospect, it might not have been Mars... I know one side was Earth and the other was a planet in the Solar System, and Mars sounds about right, but so does Venus. Either way, it was the casual arrogance of the extra-terrestrial society and the blustering attempts of the Earth administrator that stuck out for me. How can orbitals be oriented if the nucleus is symmetrical? I know very little about quantum physics, but I just can't wrap my head around the fact that non-spherical orbitals appear to be "oriented", constituting a set of fixed "frame of reference axes".  Does it really work like that? Are there for a single atom given directions in which the orbitals "protrude"? And if so, what are they based on? If I understand it right, the nucleus is seemingly spherical - symmetrical with no unique axis of symmetry. What would then decide the orientation of the orbitals in space (with respect to the surroundings)?  Edit: I understand any orientation works to satisfy the wave equation. I was more curious why the atom would choose one direction, instead of any of the others. Is that fundamentally random? And is this setup retained further, or can it change at any time? Trying to rig a Map I'm trying to make a "simple" accordion map in Blender 2.79, for animated and still render purposes.  I will map graphics onto each face, and I don't want the faces to get stretched/distorted.  I do however, want to be able to create a hinge-type rig, to be able to fold open and close the map like an accordion without having to manually position each face edge (which would distort the faces anyways).  I looked into using an Armature, but the faces got distorted. I tried to use a Hinge constraint, but I if understand correctly, it would require each flap of the map to be a distinct element - I don't want that. I found solutions involving Weight painting, but I don't think I want any of the map's flaps to be anchored - also there is only one face per element and I don't know if Weight Painting is appropriate.    How can I rig this map properly to open it and close it without any distortion? How do I convert Word smart quotes and em dashes in a string? Why is the camera tilting around the z axis when I only specified x and y? My goal is to program a camera to point towards the mouse cursor. I attached the following script to the Main Camera.   using UnityEngine; using System.Collections;  public class CameraController : MonoBehaviour {      public float sensitivity;      // Update is called once per frame     void Update () {         transform.Rotate (Input.GetAxis ("Mouse Y") * -1 * sensitivity, Input.GetAxis ("Mouse X") * sensitivity, 0);     } }   I "told" the camera to rotate around the x and y axes. Whenever it does this, the camera tilts sideways. When I checked the rotation of Main Camera, I saw that the z rotation had changed. Why is it rotating around the z axis when I left it at 0?
