Allege is used when no evidence is available so it is not sure or accurate yet. It is a statement that is made without giving proof, accusing somebody of doing something that is wrong or illegal. Claim is used when evidence is available and it is sure and true. the two words are not the same and cannot be used interc...

In the legal context, "allege" usually means a statement regarding the truth or falsity of something: e.g. A and B were married on February 20, 1986. "Claim" is usually used in the sense of "claim for relief," which means what you are asking the court to order: e.g. A asks this court to dissolve the marriage of the pa...

To *allege* is always to accuse a party (human or corporate) of wrongdoing. You may, however, *claim* something without the accusation of wrongdoing. For example: * You can *claim* that a new product is far superior to its competitors * You can *claim* that a storm damaged your conservatory by blowing your neighbour'...
The only difference is one of diction. "Alleges" is in a much higher register than "claims." "Alleges" is also preferred in legal contexts.

I'm from South India. My home roof is built with steel panels. During the summer, the roof will get too hot. I don't know much more about how cool in natural way. Is there a way to cool the roof naturally?

Paint the roof white or silver to reflect as much sunlight as possible. This is a passive method once it is done. Water removes heat better than air so if you have a source of water, or collected and stored rainwater, it could be sprayed on the roof during times of high heat. This isn't "natural" but if you have an a...
What you want to do is to prevent the heat from the hot roof from flowing into the living space. In the US traditionally this was accomplished by insulating the ceiling of the living space. The attic (aka loft) would get very hot but the insulation on the attic side of the ceiling would prevent heat flow through the ce...

Lets say that intensional roughly means something along the lines of Frege's sense/reference. In particular, we have that the sense of a proposition is intensional, it varies across possible worlds. Meanwhile, its reference is a truth value. Given a model M = <worlds, accessibility, valuation>, we can associate with e...
One way to approach the issue of intensionality in modal logic is to observe that modal expressions are considered to be intensional because they introduce referentially opaque contexts. These are contexts within which co-referring terms and coextensive concepts cannot be substituted while guaranteeing truth preservati...

I was wondering if there is a word to describe a person who always is really quick at looking things up on etc. his phone. E.g when you just can't remember the characters name in the film you just saw and this guy quickly pulls his phone out and looks it up. I am looking for an adjective to fit: I was not sure about...

The skill is known as [Google-fu](http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=google-fu), and is a [noun](https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Google-fu). So although you can't use it as a straight adjective (ie 'he is Google-fu'), you can say 'his Google-fu is very impressive'. In terms of your sample sentence, you cou...
I can't come up with a word that fits the bill. Depending on the context in which you wish to use the term, perhaps you could coin one along the lines of: *Googleholic,* *Googlemaniac,* *Wiki-it-all*, *Net-ref-nut* etc.

From a strictly grammatical point of view, I think the context of "memories" establishes the expected temporal sense of "present" rather than leaving any reasonable possibility that it could be interpreted as a gift; so you shouldn't run into any difficulties due to ambiguity. (Although this is technically off-topic, ...
You could replace "present" with "now" (or something similar) and remove the potential for ambiguity.

Is it possible do something like this ? When I click on the button I need the following animation: button to set some alpha filter and starts to fall down as indicated by the arrow, it will disappear on tab.

It's definitely possible, but there are some issues you have to overcome. One is that UIBarButtonItem isn't a UIView. One way is to loop through the subviews of the UIToolbar or UINavigationBar. Another way is to figure out the position of the button. Another is to get the view using private api if you're not submittin...
You can't really move it from view to view, as your views could clip and then you'd get frames with only a partial image. Probably the best thing to do is to create a view on the fly which covers the whole screen, copy the button image into the view at the original point, remove the button from the original view, then ...

I would use the database method. If you ever decide to add a title, description, tags or comments to each picture you'll have an easier time implementing it. Plus you can sort.

Honestly, I’m still learning about some cleaning products.

To further @Tetsujin's answer. The Lysol product you have specified as Lysol Clean & Fresh Multi-Surface Cleaner is made of a number of active ingredients. The primary decontaminating component is [Alkyl (50% C14, 40% C12, 10% C16) dimethyl benzyl ammonium chloride](http://www.rbnainfo.com/product.php?productLineId=1...
Lysol is a trade name, covering a whole family of quite different products. You will need to be more specific. In short, though… you rinse it with more water until it's gone. If it got inside places it shouldn't, then your choice is to attempt a DIY take-apart [really not recommended] or give it to a professional… or...

I think this is not the way to go, if you want to offer customization to your library, interfaces and abstract classes are your best bet. Implementing wrappers for other languages will be very inefficient and probably relatively slow, not even starting with the complexity it add to your code. How are you going to pass ...
Normally I'd suggest one of the following methods: * Define an **interface** that the custom code needs to implement * Provide a (possible abstract) **base class** that custom code can extend via inheritance Which of these you choose is up to you, typically base classes are a bit easier for people to use (since they ...
