"The Experimental City is a documentary about the Minnesota Experimental City project, a futuristic attempt to solve urban problems by creating a full-size city from scratch in the isolated woods of northern Minnesota. At the heart of the story is renowned scientist, inventor and comic-strip author Athelstan Spilhaus, who dreams of a new kind of planned city – a truly experimental city that continuously changes to find workable urban solutions. This new city would employ the newest technologies in communications, transport, pollution control, energy supply – even large-scale domed enclosure – in an attempt to create more livable cities for the 21st Century. It was a compelling vision, with powerful backers, hundreds of experts, and its own state agency. But not everyone fell in line with this newfangled vision for the future."

Red Delicious Apples Can Rot In Hell
They've finally been dethroned as the nation's top-selling apple, because they're trash.
by Hilary Pollack
29 August 2018, 7:20pm

Welcome to Actually, a safe space for us to share our deeply-held but likely-unpopular opinions about food and drinks.
As children, we're fed so many lies: that we might grow up to be princesses or knights, rather than Excel-spreadsheet-filling drones; that a flying lady in a tutu takes our discarded baby teeth from under our pillows and leaves behind a pile of quarters; that our leaders always have the best interests of humanity in mind. And worst of all, that apples of a shiny, deep red are "delicious."
The Red Delicious apple does not live up to its name, but it is a stunner of a fruit. The rich color of its scarlet skin is eye-catching, dramatic, and sensual. But should you find yourself tempted to take a bite (it might be worth noting that in many historical artistic depictions of the Garden of Eden, the forbidden fruit is a bright red apple), you'll find that... Red Delicious apples absolutely fucking suck.
Their pale, mealy flesh is nearly flavorless—a starchy, watery crumble that offers none of the punch that their outsides promise—while their visually appealing skins are tough and bitter to chew, peeling off in rubbery strips that are best, or necessarily, spat out. You know why God told Adam and Eve not to eat that fruit? Cuz it's nasty.
Hit up a new Google tab and type in "Red Delicious apples are..." and the first word to autofill is "gross." It is no secret that this apple is unpleasant, dastardly, and as devoid of good flavor as it is replete with good looks. A Reddit thread dedicated to putting this wretched apple in its place likens its taste and texture to "sawdust wrapped in a stack of wet college-ruled paper."
Yet for difficult-to-comprehend reasons, this unforgivably shitty apple has had a long reign of terror as the most popular variety in the US for more than 50 years. How can it be a surprise that nearly 88 percent of Americans are not eating enough fruit when one of fruit's most ubiquitous representatives is this universally despised edible embodiment of false advertising?
Finally, our hero is here: the Gala, which the US Apple Association recently projected to take over as the most grown fruit in the States. Slipping to the second spot, the Red Delicious is then followed by the Granny Smith, the Fuji, and the Honeycrisp in popularity (in that order). This year's production of the Red Delicious has declined from 57.9 million units to 51.7 million—an 11 percent drop. FUCK YOU, RED DELICIOUS! AWAY WITH YOU!
According to the US Apple Association, the Gala "has increased in popularity because consumers like its taste, texture, and sweetness," qualities which the Red Garbageygarbage utterly lacks. This writer is also pleased to see the Honeycrisp—the finest of all popular apple varieties, IMO—enter the top five and knock out the Golden Delicious, which is nearly as mealy and reprehensible as its red cousin. If projections pan out, the Honeycrisp may even move into the top three, ahead of the Granny Smith (boring and too tart) and the Fuji (friendly and acceptable).
Despite this clear indication of the people's hatred toward the Red Delicious, Mark Seetin, USApple director of regulatory and industry affairs, doesn't seem inclined to acknowledge the vitriol toward the variety. "The rise in production of newer varieties of apples aimed at the fresh consumption domestic market has caused demand for Red Delicious to decline," he said in a press release. "However, Red Delicious is important in the export market, where it makes up roughly half of our apple exports." And exports have been hurting, thanks to Trump's trade wars, which have led China to impose a 15 percent tariff on US apples.

Back in 2014, Tom Burford, apple historian and author of Apples of North America, had plenty to say about the Red Delicious, which he referred to as "the largest compost-maker in the world," when speaking with MUNCHIES. He recalled that the variety is descended from the far superior Hawkeye, which had a pleasant, floral flavor, far sweeter than the Red Not-Delicious, which soon descended from the Hawkeye due to the American industrial machine. Late capitalism, bad apples.
But now, he says: "The consumer goes into the supermarket and picks up that bag of Red Delicious and puts them in the cart. They take them home, put them in the fruit bowl, pick one off the top, and bite into it and say, 'This isn't really good.' It goes in the trash, and the next week the very same thing happens. Fifty-two bags of apples piled up in the trash!"
So stop putting them in your damn cart, people. Surely there's a Honeycrisp or a Fuji nearby, waiting for you to take it home—and to actually enjoy eating it.

There are a many misconceptions about the modeling and talent industry. Before exploring the possibility of pursuing this endeavor for your child, we recommend that you read and understand the information on this page first.
Why must I submit a photo first?
Can I submit my photo by e-mail?
Can I call to see if you received my photo or selected me?
You didn't accept my child. Why?
Why doesn't the agency front my expenses if you think I am marketable?
What hours would my child have to be available?
Can you recommend a test photographer?
I know a professional photographer. Can they take my pictures?
Do you require an exclusive contract?
What about the unions (SAG and AFTRA)?
The first step is to determine if you are photogenic. Photography is the primary medium in which we conduct business.
No. Our process requires a hard copy, non-returnable photograph with specified information printed on the back of the photo so it cannot become detached in processing. No email submissions will be accepted.
Marketability. Note: Marketability changes with seasons, trends, and client needs. Generally, agents and clients are looking for children who are outgoing and animated, with good personalities, a good attention span, who are able to follow instructions well. Children who are normally shy and cling to their parents are not good candidates. Your child must be the one interested in pursuing this - NOT you. If a child is not interested in modeling or acting, professionals in the industry will detect this immediately.
No. Unfortunately, due to the high volume of submissions we receive, we simply don't have the time to personally address everyone.
There may be many reasons why your child was not accepted. However in most cases, we likely have enough talent in your category to meet our current booking needs.
Initially, you're approaching us to establish a partnership. After determining that your child is marketable and meeting all our requirements, then we will enter into a business partnership together. You will be our talent, and we will be your booking agent, advising you and acting on your behalf. You will be an independent contractor as defined by the Internal Revenue Service in publication 15, "Circular E, Employer's Tax Guide". We will not be your employer, nor will you be our employee.
Probably not. Children and most adults do not benefit from portfolios in our market. However, some talent, in certain specific categories, may be more marketable with a portfolio. If we feel this applies to you, we will discuss this individually. However, you will need either a composite card or headshot.
As in any business, there are start-up costs. As an independent contractor, you are responsible for knowing the "business of the business" and for providing us with the tools of the trade. You will be required to supply us with composite cards, headshots, resumes or demo reels, as appropriate to your experience level and skill set. If someone tries to sell you a portfolio to enter the industry, be very suspicious!
It would be impossible for any agency to absorb the expense of creating all the marketing materials for all their talent. There are no guarantees to the agency that you will not relocate outside our market, not be flexible or become disabled or disinterested. If you believe in yourself, you must invest in yourself.
There are NO guarantees in this business. Our clients select the talent to be included in their ads from our talent pool. We expose you to our clients when they are booking talent in your category. Having an outstanding composite card, head shot, performing well on auditions, and being easy to work with makes you more appealing to the clients. Agents cannot guarantee that your child will ever work. Clients such as JC Penney, Delta, Coke, Disney, etc., choose who they want to appear in their advertisements, commercials, movies, etc.- NOT THE AGENT. The agency has an extensive client database, and the only guarantee they can make is that when a client requests talent with your child's look, age, size, etc., they will present your child's picture(s) to that client for consideration. Remember, "beauty is in the eye of the beholder."
You DO NOT have to take modeling classes. Quality, reputable acting training is always recommended. However, neither is necessary before an agent would be interested in representing you. We are not a school, but we can direct you to appropriate resources commensurate with your experience and skill set.
It varies. Your rates will increase with experience, exposure, and good performance. Suggestion: don't quit your day job just yet. While talent income can be substantial, it is also unpredictable. Only a very few professionals can make a living at it full-time.
Work hours for this industry are normally Monday through Friday, 8:00am to 6:00pm - NOT ON WEEKENDS OR EVENINGS. There are some exceptions, but not often. Meaning…if your child is selected for a job or audition, you will have to check them out of school. Seldom does a client take into consideration a child's schedule. You must work on the client's schedule.
Not yet. A talent's marketability determines the type of photographer best suited to test that particular talent. Therefore, we cannot recommend a photographer for talent that we have not interviewed.
Probably not. Fashion photography is a specialized trade. Talent photos are shot to fulfill a specific purpose, and must project the look that we are marketing. Your photo will be submitted with other talent photos and it is crucial that they be outstanding to attract the eye of an advertising art director. And, since it will bear our logo, your composite photography must meet or exceed our standards.
Yes. However, an exception may be made for previously working professional talent on a case-by-case basis.
We generally do not recommend union membership for talent in our market. Most southeastern states, including Alabama and Georgia, are right-to-work states. Although union talent cannot work in non-union productions, non-union talent can only work in union productions in accordance with the Federal law known as the Taft-Hartley Act. Most of our bookings are non-union.

Mullingar Awarded Purple Flag – Evening and Night-Time Award
Published: 12th February 2015
The first ATCM Purple Flag Awards ceremony held in Ireland took place Drury Buildings in Dublin on Tuesday, 10th February saw the number of Purple Flag holders in Ireland rise to a total of 10 adding to the strong uptake of the programme in the UK with a total of over 50
flags now having been awarded. The ceremony was hosted by Dublin Town and Galway, Mullingar, Sligo, Waterford and Westport were awarded their flags joining the existing 5 flag holders Dublin Creative Quarter and Dame District, Ennis, Bray, Killarney and Ballina. The evening was supported by the Purple Flag Ireland Advisory Group chaired by Richard Guiney and also by the UK Purple Flag panel. The ceremony saw also 5 UK towns and cities being awarded and renewing their Purple Flag including Bury, Hull, Swansea, Southend and Salisbury and was joined also by two Swedish representatives.
ATCM's Evening and night time economy programme manager Jonny Birkett said: "Purple Flag is the highest award for a vibrant and safe evening and night time economy in Europe offering successful towns and cities a way to recognise, promote and further develop the evening and night-time economy, making places more attractive and vibrant for both locals and visitors alike. " He continued by saying "With Purple Flag only having been launched in Ireland 2 years ago, already a major milestone has been reached with now 10 Purple Flags having been awarded in the Republic. This puts Ireland firmly on the map in terms of excellence in the evening and night-time. Speaking on behalf of the decision making panel, I am delighted to say that all Irish applications have impressed the judges both in terms of quality of the night-time offering as well in the partnership of the towns and cities that applied."
The new awardees went through a rigorous Purple Flag Academy All towns passed the 30 criteria of the accreditation procedure with commendations. Passing the minimum thresholds of decreasing crime statistics, appropriate transport, a vibrant appeal, a stimulating destination and a strong partnership, Mullingar was commended separately in the following areas:
The greatest strength of this bid was the dedication and enthusiasm of the team. There was a high level of engagement with businesses in the town. Everybody the assessors spoke to seemed to be aware of the bid. Many businesses displayed Purple Flag window stickers supplied by the local paper. The quality of the reception and welcome for the assessors was outstanding Purple Flag requires annual renewal. Therefore continued innovation is a must. The towns that retain their Purple Flag will be those that continually strive to improve their evening and night time experiences.
Brigid Manley, Director of Sales & Marketing for Mullingar Park Hotel & Mullingar Chamber Executive has commented that Mullingar are delighted to be included in the first 10 town's in Ireland to be accredited with the prestigious international Purple Flag award proving Mullingar 's claim to be one of the best town's in Ireland. It is a huge honor and credit to the town, the people of Mullingar and to the dynamic working group we had all through the process – a collaboration incorporating the Mullingar' business community, Westmeath County Council, Mullingar Chamber of Commerce, Mullingar Town Team and most importantly of all Mullingar Gardai.
Visitors to the town can enjoy a vibrant, appealing, well-managed and safe evening and night-time economy. This distinguished accreditation brings with it increased tourism potential for Mullingar and ranks Mullingar among just 50 towns internationally who are proudly flying Purple Flag The accolade has already been given to places like London's Covent Garden, Belfast's Cathedral Quarter and Liverpool's City Centre & Oxford in the United Kingdom So if you are looking for something to do tonight? Mullingar Town has been officially stamped with a Purple Flag. This means that this area has been recognized as an 'area of excellence, especially in the evening economy' – making it the ideal place to explore possibilities……as a place to go 'for a better night out' Enjoy……
Mark Brindley, Mullingar Chamber Executive Member who was instrumental with Brigid Manley (also Chamber Executive) in putting the bid together was asked by the press, what is the next step for Mullingar now it has gone purple? In responding he said:
"I would like to think that our first priority is to maintain the Purple Flag status in perpetuity. We will shortly be receiving feedback from the ATCM (Association of Town & City Managers) as to areas of concern, room for improvement as well as where we currently score well. The idea being that we uphold the high standards that we have attained and improve the quality of the evening offer where we can and setting ourselves annual achievable targets.
It is also important from my own perspective and I think I can speak for the Chamber and the Mullingar Town Team on this is that in most district or town authorities be it principally in the UK there is a singular strategic managerial role which would look after specific initiatives such as Purple Flag, Environmental Improvements, Events Management and co-ordination of Chamber, Town Team individual businesses and Local Authority expertise and it is incorporated under a Town Centre Management (Manager) role.
Sometimes these very important individuals with excellent interpersonal and promotional skills work closely with or come from within the local authority, or can be from the private sector, can be match funded by business and eventually becoming self-sufficient in sourcing funding opportunities from funding sources. The type of person, the structure which we set up for the person and the role we see them performing is something that we are going to enlist the help of the ATCM and I see this as the singular most important part of upholding the Purple Flag status and continually striving for improvements in a partnership approach between business, stakeholders and the local authority.
We have been fortunate to have benefitted from a very good working relationship with all parties and individuals concerned and long may it last."


GUEST BLOG: More Octomore, please!
Guest blog by Paul Nyberg (twitter: @derekcuster). Thanks Paul!!
I must begin with a disclaimer. While I have had one or three Bruichladdichs since really getting into my whisky rather than just drinking it, I would never have come across the Octomore range if I hadn't heard about the extreme peat on This is my Dram. When Stu and Andy went through the 8.1 and 8.2 on Series 3 Episode 4, I almost had to pull the car over (I'm a podcast-while-commuting guy) to mop up the saliva!
My old man got me into enjoying whisky with Talisker, Laphroaig and Ardbeg so peat was almost my introduction to scotch whisky. When I heard that Bruichladdich were taking peat levels far above anything I'd ever tasted and then doubled down on it I knew this was one I needed to try. I decided to stretch my usual budget beyond breaking point and treat myself.
Anyway, after that preamble, I shot for the sky and grabbed myself a bottle of the 9.1. It turned up and the beauty of the box and bottle blew me away. The black design is gorgeous. It looks a million dollars, even the lid on the box is a thing of beauty. It has a monster PPM of 156, it is cask strength at 59.1%, and is matured in bourbon casks (mainly Jim Beam and Jack Daniels) for 5 years.
Then you open the thing.
While I let the whisky open up I checked that the battery in the smoke alarm hadn't packed in, and when I was convinced it was just my drink I settled down to deep dive into this stuff.
Nose: Smoke, obviously. Not medicinal like a lower end Islay can be, but a combination of a regular peaty whisky with someone puffing on a cigar with a nice hardwood fire on.
Palete: Smoke smoke smoke. Then some oak, perhaps a hint of citrus and vanilla in there too.
Finish: It isn't still going on the following day, but it's lingering. More like having a mouthful of cigar smoke than whisky.
All in all I adored it. Despite being 59.1% it doesn't ever seem that strong. There is no aggression with this one, it's subtle while still packing a huge Iron Mike punch! Behind the smoke there are a plethora of flavours just waiting to be discovered. Each sip brings more out of it. An absolutely incredible whisky.
Given that This Is My Dram is all about pairing Whisky and Music... As a song choice to go with the Octomore; Bury Me in Smoke by Down yelled at me for the obvious connection, but this is a song I have loved for a long time. I saw Down play Newcastle back in 2006 when they didn't have a record label or anything behind them, and they put on one of the greatest shows in Newcastle uni basement I've ever been to. A week later I saw them turn up at Download Festival as unannounced guests and played this song for 50,000+ super happy drunken fools at 1 in the afternoon. For me it's a timeless song, and that main riff... if it doesn't make you want to thrash on air guitar then you just ain't right!

Irish Fairy Tales
Mongan's Frenzy
HE ABBOT OF the Monastery of Moville sent word to the story-tellers of Ireland that when they were in his neighbourhood they should call at the monastery, for he wished to collect and write down the stories which were in danger of being forgotten.
"These things also must he told," said he.
In particular he wished to gather tales which told of the deeds that had been done before the Gospel came to Ireland.
"For," said he, "there are very good tales among those ones, and it would be a pity if the people who come after us should be ignorant of what happened long ago, and of the deeds of their fathers."
So, whenever a story-teller chanced in that neighbourhood he was directed to the monastery, and there he received a welcome and his fill of all that is good for man.
The abbot's manuscript boxes began to fill up, and he used to regard that growing store with pride and joy. In the evenings, when the days grew short and the light went early, he would call for some one of these manuscripts and have it read to him by candle-light, in order that he might satisfy himself that it was as good as he had judged it to be on the previous hearing.
One day a story-teller came to the monastery, and, like all the others, he was heartily welcomed and given a great deal more than his need.
He said that his name was Cairide', and that he had a story to tell which could not be bettered among the stories of Ireland.
The abbot's eyes glistened when he heard that. He rubbed his hands together and smiled on his guest.
"What is the name of your story?" he asked.
"It is called 'Mongan's Frenzy.'"
"I never heard of it before," cried the abbot joyfully.
"I am the only man that knows it," Cairide' replied.
"But how does that come about?" the abbot inquired.
"Because it belongs to my family," the story-teller answered. "There was a Cairide' of my nation with Mongan when he went into Faery. This Cairide' listened to the story when it was first told. Then he told it to his son, and his son told it to his son, and that son's great-great-grandson's son told it to his son's son, and he told it to my father, and my father told it to me."
"And you shall tell it to me," cried the abbot triumphantly.
"I will indeed," said Cairide'. Vellum was then brought and quills. The copyists sat at their tables. Ale was placed beside the story-teller, and he told this tale to the abbot.
Said Cairide':
Mongan's wife at that time was Bro'tiarna, the Flame Lady. She was passionate and fierce, and because the blood would flood suddenly to her cheek, so that she who had seemed a lily became, while you looked upon her, a rose, she was called Flame Lady. She loved Mongan with ecstasy and abandon, and for that also he called her Flame Lady.
But there may have been something of calculation even in her wildest moment, for if she was delighted in her affection she was tormented in it also, as are all those who love the great ones of life and strive to equal themselves where equality is not possible.
For her husband was at once more than himself and less than himself. He was less than himself because he was now Mongan. He was more than himself because he was one who had long disappeared from the world of men. His lament had been sung and his funeral games played many, many years before, and Bro'tiarna sensed in him secrets, experiences, knowledges in which she could have no part, and for which she was greedily envious.
So she was continually asking him little, simple questions a' propos of every kind of thing.
She weighed all that he said on whatever subject, and when he talked in his sleep she listened to his dream.
The knowledge that she gleaned from those listenings tormented her far more than it satisfied her, for the names of other women were continually on his lips, sometimes in terms of dear affection, sometimes in accents of anger or despair, and in his sleep he spoke familiarly of people whom the story-tellers told of, but who had been dead for centuries. Therefore she was perplexed, and became filled with a very rage of curiosity.
Among the names which her husband mentioned there was one which, because of the frequency with which it appeared, and because of the tone of anguish and love and longing in which it was uttered, she thought of oftener than the others: this name was Duv Laca. Although she questioned and cross-questioned Cairide', her story-teller, she could discover nothing about a lady who had been known as the Black Duck. But one night when Mongan seemed to speak with Duv Laca he mentioned her father as Fiachna Duv mac Demain, and the story-teller said that king had been dead for a vast number of years.
She asked her husband then, boldly, to tell her the story of Duv Laca, and under the influence of their mutual love he promised to tell it to her some time, but each time she reminded him of his promise he became confused, and said that he would tell it some other time.
As time went on the poor Flame Lady grew more and more jealous of Duv Laca, and more and more certain that, if only she could know what had happened, she would get some ease to her tormented heart and some assuagement of her perfectly natural curiosity. Therefore she lost no opportunity of reminding Mongan of his promise, and on each occasion he renewed the promise and put it back to another time.
In the year when Ciaran the son of the Carpenter died, the same year when Tuathal Maelgariv was killed and the year when Diarmait the son of Cerrbel became king of all Ireland, the year 538 of our era in short, it happened that there was a great gathering of the men of Ireland at the Hill of Uisneach in Royal Meath.
In addition to the Council which was being held, there were games and tournaments and brilliant deployments of troops, and universal feastings and enjoyments. The gathering lasted for a week, and on the last day of the week Mongan was moving through the crowd with seven guards, his story-teller Cairide', and his wife.
It had been a beautiful day, with brilliant sunshine and great sport, but suddenly clouds began to gather in the sky to the west, and others came rushing blackly from the east. When these clouds met the world went dark for a space, and there fell from the sky a shower of hailstones, so large that each man wondered at their size, and so swift and heavy that the women and young people of the host screamed from the pain of the blows they received.
Mongan's men made a roof of their shields, and the hailstones battered on the shields so terribly that even under them they were afraid. They began to move away from the host looking for shelter, and when they had gone apart a little way they turned the edge of a small hill and a knoll of trees, and in the twinkling of an eye they were in fair weather.
One minute they heard the clashing and bashing of the hailstones, the howling of the venomous wind, the screams of women and the uproar of the crowd on the Hill of Uisneach, and the next minute they heard nothing more of those sounds and saw nothing more of these sights, for they had been permitted to go at one step out of the world of men and into the world of Faery.
There is a difference between this world and the world of Faery, but it is not immediately perceptible. Everything that is here is there, but the things that are there are better than those that are here. All things that are bright are there brighter. There is more gold in the sun and more silver in the moon of that land. There is more scent in the flowers, more savour in the fruit. There is more comeliness in the men and more tenderness in the women. Everything in Faery is better by this one wonderful degree, and it is by this betterness you will know that you are there if you should ever happen to get there.
Mongan and his companions stepped from the world of storm into sunshine and a scented world. The instant they stepped they stood, bewildered, looking at each other silently, questioningly, and then with one accord they turned to look back whence they had come.

Q: starting apachectl from bash I am writing a bash file. I need to start apachectl from my bash file. so i wrote:
apachectl start

When I run it with root, an error occurred:
apachectl: command not found

I searched and I found that, I should be super user with su - not su
Now, I want to know:

*

*why this error occurred?

*How could i run it with su?

A: The command not found error is because "apachectl" is not in your path. Simply use the full path of the command, e.g.

/etc/init.d/apachectl start

If you get a permission denied error, then you need to run as a different user. That is a different problem though.

A: Use the find command to first locate apachecetl
find / -name apachectl

Then you can test it by running the status command (assuming this is the location from the find command)
/usr/local/sbin/apachectl status

Then you may need to restart apache if there's an issue
/usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl restart

A: It seems, that the command apachectl is not in your environments path. Locate the directory, where apachectl resides and add this to your PATH or start it with the full path. Most modern distributions use sudo to allow users gain elevated rights, so you should use sudo, if available to you.

A: In shell scripts you should use full paths in order to execute command unless directory with executable already in $PATH.
For instance, find where apachectl binary is located:
which apachectl

or
whereis apachectl

and you will get something like:
/usr/local/sbin/apachectl

So, use that.

A: Below command worked for me:
sudo /usr/sbin/apachectl  -kstart

A: The answer above helped me a lot but the commands should be:
sudo netstat -tanp
sudo ss -tanp 'sport = 80'
sudo apt-get remove lighttpd
sudo <path>/apachectl -kstart

A: First kill all httpd service using...
sudo killall -9 httpd

Second, find apachectl. Press ctrl+r into terminal enter a "apachectl" word To find the path of "apachectl".
After select:
sudo <path>/apachectl stop|start

A: This question is old but comes up in Google, so for future readers: Please notice on some distributions such as Debian it is a sudo-only command and trying to run it without sudo leads to the error: command not found. So in order to run it simply use sudo. Also if you want to know where the binary is located at too, the simplest way I recommend (if using APT) is:
$ dpkg -L apache2 | grep apachectl
/usr/sbin/apachectl
/usr/share/man/man8/apachectl.8.gz

As you see, it's under sbin which means is exclusive to admins space.

A: I had the same problem. You may run the following command first:
export PATH=$PATH:/sbin

Then use apachectl restart or etc.

A: well, it happens why you port be used now other service. for you know that
service is use write next comand of netstat:

*

*sudo netstat -tanp.

if you wanna to know of port 8080 use next comand:

*

*trong textsudo ss -ntlp 'sport = 80'.

in my case was run lighttpd so apply next comand:

*

*sudo apt-get remove lighttpd.

X-Rite Incorporated will present advanced technologies at the NPE2009 International Plastics Showcase in Chicago from June 22 to 26 that manufacturers of plastics products can use in their workflow everyday to accurately communicate color data between plants worldwide, reduce rework and scrap, and improve quality.
X-Rite representatives at booth N65021 in the McCormick Place will demonstrate technologies that plastics manufacturers serving the automotive, durable and small appliance, office furniture and home improvement industries can use to precisely control the color of their products. Two new families of instruments include a non-contact spectrophotometer called the VS450® that is affordable enough to be stationed for quality control at an individual machine, and the xDNA® system with MA98® spectrophotometer that accurately measures effect colors that are popular with consumers. In addition, the company will be demonstrating its VeriColor® Spectro instrument that is versatile for in-line color measurement for industrial applications.
As a new product introduction, the VS450 is X-Rite's response to customers in the plastics industry that are looking for a lab-to-production solutions, said Kenneth Phillips, product manager for Non Contact Industrial Markets. "The VS450 is about twice as accurate as comparable instruments in terms of repeatability," Phillips said. "That means manufacturers can have good confidence in the data they use for monitoring their operations." The VS450 offers manufacturers advanced and affordable technology to measure color accurately on curved surfaces, wet color, and other demanding applications. Unlike other spectrophotometers that require a test surface to make physical contact against a viewing port, the VS450 measures samples from a distance of about 38mm (1.5 inches).
"Contamination of the viewing port is a common problem with production equipment measuring everything from a plastic part to wet color," Phillips said. "That problem is eliminated altogether with the VS450 because it never touches the sample." For instance, the instrument is ideal for a manufacturer that uses Leneta test cards for industrial color to correlate the color of wet color with its resulting color when dry.
In addition to targeting samples precisely, the VS450 has advanced optics and sensors to more accurately measure reds, blues and dark hues — which generally are the hardest colors to get right for coatings and plastic formulations.
Employing the same technology as the VeriColor spectrophotometer, the VS450 illuminates its test surface with a burst of intense light simulating daylight that is generated from light emitting diodes (LEDs), which greatly reduces errors that can result from reading other light sources in the store. The instrument recognizes light coming from the LEDs only, ignoring incandescent, fluorescent or sodium vapor light on the shop floor that greatly affects the way colors are detected.
Phillips said the VS450 instrument is an extension of the company's VeriColor spectrophotometer family of instruments that set a new standard two years ago for color measurement in demanding industrial applications. The VS450 is built to correlate data at a 0 degree and 45 degree angle from the test surface, which allows it to yield reliable readings on satin and glossy surfaces and a variety of different textures.
The VS450 and the VeriColor instruments come bundled with software so the systems can integrate seamlessly with X-Rite and other software packages, allowing companies to maintain historical data.
X-Rite also will be demonstrating the powerful applications of the company's new xDNA technology in measuring metallic flake, pearlescent and other effect pigments.
X-Rite representatives will demonstrate how the patent-pending xDNA system with its new MA98 spectrophotometer helps automotive suppliers, appliance manufacturers and other companies using effect colors to quickly introduce new processes, improve first-time quality and reduce the time and effort of troubleshooting problems on the factory floor.
Manufacturers often waste a significant amount of time and money trying to match plastic parts either coated with effect color or containing effect materials because they do not have instruments that measure why the surfaces look different under various illuminations and observation angles. Quality control personnel on a production line may observe that two parts don't match properly, but prior instruments could not give measurements to help explain why the mismatch was occurring. Consequently, companies spend an inordinate amount of time and resources trying to determine the root cause of problems through trial and error methods.
Teunis said the MA98 instrument collects data that other instruments miss entirely, and a software package called X-ColorQC® manipulates the data with proprietary xDNA algorithms to generate easy-to-understand graphs that show unique characteristics of an effect color.
* Predict whether a person will be able to perceive a difference in color and appearance when the formula of an effect color, or the process used to manufacture the color, are changed.
From a hardware viewpoint, MA98 is a precision 31-point spectrophotometer that is designed for ease-of-use on the factory floor. Weighing approximately 1 kilogram and covered with a soft over-mold case for two-handed use, the instrument is designed for frequent and comfortable measurement by shop floor personnel.
* Two year, industry-leading warranty.
hether a person has color vision deficiencies.
* Measure the color of products with varied textures.
When programmed to take regular and frequent measurements, the VeriColor spectro can markedly reduce scrap and rework because it provides an immediate signal when a process is making parts outside of specifications. In addition, companies can see a quicker return on investment of their purchase of VeriColor spectro instruments by using its Color iScan® software to analyze and correlate the instrument's measurements with process data such as gloss, film thickness, temperature and other process parameters to improve statistical process control and first-time quality.
X-Rite is the global leader in color science and technology. The company, which now includes color industry leader Pantone, Inc., develops, manufactures, markets and supports innovative color solutions through measurement systems, software, color standards and services. X-Rite's expertise in inspiring, selecting, measuring, formulating, communicating and matching color helps users get color right the first time and every time, which translates to better quality and reduced costs. X-Rite serves a range of industries, including printing, packaging, photography, graphic design, video, automotive, plastics, paint, textiles, dental and medical.

Prices shown represent the average one way price paid by our customers. The most common booking on the Nisyros Rhodes route is a car and 2 passengers.
Located in the Dodecanese group of islands in the Aegean Sea, the island of Nisyros lies between the neighbouring islands of Kos and Tilos. The island's coast has a few sandy beaches, which are generally located in the north east part of the island, but generally the Nisyros coastline is characterised by rocky or pebbled beaches. The island's volcano is active but luckily for tourists it is not erupting and Fumaroles can be found at the craters. According to Greek mythology, the island was formed when Poseidon cut off a part of Kos and threw it onto the giant Polybotes to stop him from escaping. Fifth century ancient walls, which were originally part of the acropolis on the island, can be found near Mandraki and the island's ancient name was Porphyris.
From the island's port there are conventional and high speed ferry services that generally depart to the other islands of the Dodecanese. There are also services to the Cycladic islands and also to Crete, but usually via another island.


Fearless? Nah. On this episode you'll find a switch in perspective that will help you move forward in moments of fear, doubt or restlessness. Because fearlessness is one way to go when you're looking to create success, but not the only way! Enjoy another Summer Session with thought provoking ideas!

Category: Princes in the Tower
A selection of posts based around the Princes in the Tower i.e. Edward V and his brother Richard, Duke of York, who were supposedly killed by Richard III.
Visit to the Tower of London
White Tower
So, as you might have guessed from my previous post on the 'Fantastic Beasts: The Wonder of Nature' exhibition (click here) I have been on holiday in London. How could I not visit some Tudor-related sites? I was with a friend who had never visited the Tower of London before, so we used the tickets that had been booked way back at the beginning of 2020 when the pandemic hit.
We arrived early and spent five hours wandering around, stopping for a café break as well. We walked the walls, and took in the exhibitions, seeing displays on the Medieval Palace, Imprisonment at the Tower, and the Tower in War. We were using my guidebook from 2010 as I haven't got an updated version and, in one display, there were guidebooks from the past and the same copy as mine was in a glass case! That was weird.
Dudley coat of arms carved in the Beauchamp Tower
The Beauchamp Tower is where we saw all of the graffiti left by those imprisoned there, notably this coat of arms likely carved by one of the Dudleys in 1553-4 after Jane Grey's failed reign (the photo isn't great because of the light from behind). There were also several pieces of graffiti left by those involved in rebellions against Elizabeth I which was especially interesting for me to see.
The Bloody Tower includes Walter Raleigh's study and an exploration of the disappearance of the Princes in the Tower, something that I've read quite a lot about. Raleigh wrote his 'The History of the World' while imprisoned here. The Salt Tower was the place of imprisonment of Hew Draper who was incarcerated for sorcery during the reign of Elizabeth I. There are some fascinating astrological drawings on the walls of various places in the Tower where he was kept. A zodiac design contains the date 30 May 1561.
Chapel of St Peter ad Vincula
Of course, a visit to the Chapel of St Peter ad Vincula (Peter in Chains) was a must. It's an absolutely beautiful space where lie buried the remains of Anne Boleyn, Katherine Howard, Lady Jane Grey, Jane Boleyn Lady Rochford, Edward Seymour Duke of Somerset, John Dudley Duke of Northumberland, and Guildford Dudley within the main body of the chapel. In the crypt are the remains of Sir Thomas More and Bishop John Fisher of Rochester who were executed on nearby Tower Hill.
The armouries in the White Tower were fascinating, though I had seen them before. I almost looked at the rooms anew and visited St John's Chapel in the White Tower for the very first time. It's starkly simple but incredibly profound with plain walls and some stone carving, quite a contrast to the better-known St Peter ad Vincula in the grounds. The armouries themselves contain armour from Henry VIII, Charles I, and James II, and a collection of swords, cannon, and other arms from across the ages and across the world. Possibly of more interest to a military historian but seeing the detail on the armour was a highlight of the White Tower for me.
Tower Hill Memorial
On the way back to our hotel we visited the memorial on Tower Hill where the likes of Edward Stafford 3rd Duke of Buckingham, Sir Thomas More, Bishop John Fisher of Rochester, and Robert Devereux 2nd Earl of Essex were executed, among many others. The names and dates of execution are places on blocks around a small square within the First World War memorial gardens. It's very easy to miss if you don't know it's there. More were executed there than are named, but the names of those who were the most notable are written. It is worth a visit if you're going to the Tower of London as many of those executed there spent time in the Tower itself.
All in all, an incredibly fascinating historical day out, even if we were exhausted afterwards having been on our feet most of the day and then going on a Jack the Ripper walking tour that evening! A blog post on that to follow …

History Bookshelves
I thought I'd do a walkthrough of my history bookshelves, as pictures on my Instagram of different books that I've bought or been sent by publishers are always very popular. If there's one thing I've learnt through the #HistoryGirls community on Instagram, it's that historians and history lovers are always looking for new reading material!
And, no, before anyone asks, I haven't read all of these yet. I'm steadily working my way through them. I've had some very lovely publishers (The History Press and Pen & Sword Books) send me some complimentary copies for review and these are currently top of my list, though this lockdown has slowed me down rather than speeding me up! I promise, I will get there.

The aims of the Simnel and Warbeck rebellions were to replace Henry VII on the English throne with what the people saw as the "true heir".[1] Henry VII was a usurper, and the only Lancastrian claimant left since the death of Henry VI in 1471.
The cause of the Simnel and Warbeck rebellions was the fact that Henry VII was a usurper with no real claim to the throne. He had taken the throne from the Yorkist Richard III, who had usurped it from the rightful heir, the son of Edward IV – Edward V – and supposedly then had Edward and his younger brother, Richard, killed in the Tower of London. Henry's claim to the throne came through his mother, Margaret Beaufort, who was descended from the illegitimate line of John of Gaunt and his mistress, Katherine Swynford. The Beaufort line had been legitimised but barred from succeeding to the throne.[2] The people of England weren't entirely convinced that the Princes in the Tower were dead and, even if they were, the Earl of Warwick was another contender with a claim to the throne. Simnel pretended to be the Earl of Warwick, the son of Richard III's elder brother, George Duke of Clarence.[3] Warbeck pretended to be Richard Duke of York, the younger of the Princes in the Tower.[4] Neither were entirely convincing.

Book Review – 'The Women of the Cousins' War: the Duchess, the Queen and the King's Mother' by Philippa Gregory
Philippa Gregory, David Baldwin and Michael Jones, The Women of the Cousins' War: the Duchess, the Queen and the King's Mother (London: Simon and Schuster Ltd, 2011), Hardback, ISBN 978-0-85720-177-5
Title: Although the book is called The Women of the Cousins' War, the book only examines a few of them – Elizabeth Woodville, Margaret Beaufort and Jacquetta of Luxembourg. It doesn't look at Margaret of Anjou or Anne Neville in a lot of detail. Nevertheless, a good study of those it does examine in detail.
Preface: The preface discusses several important questions, like why write about these women? What's so important about them? It also goes a lot wider, looking at what history is, and what fiction is, and how they can go together. There is also a sub-section on women's place in history. The introduction is a little long, almost as long as a chapter. Continue reading "Book Review – 'The Women of the Cousins' War: the Duchess, the Queen and the King's Mother' by Philippa Gregory"

Leanda de Lisle, 'Tudor: the Family Story 1437-1603' (London: Chatto & Windus, 2013) Hardback, ISBN 978-0-701-18588-6
Title: The title suggests that the book doesn't just discuss the events of the reigns of the Tudors, but actually the people involved – the monarchs, consorts, politicians and wider royal family. The focus on the people offers a different perspective on the Tudor era.
Preface: The introduction/preface introduces the ideas that shaped the Tudor dynasty and the ideas that allowed them to come to the throne – namely the killing of kings. It also discusses the beginnings of the Wars of the Roses (the Yorkist and Lancastrian lines).
Citations: The citations are very well done. They are clear and concise, and make it easy to find exactly the text you're looking for. Divided down by chapter and then numbered within that makes it very easy. The extra information also included in the notes adds something to your knowledge.

Richard III: His Reputation and the Discovery of His Bones
Richard III was a soldier, and proved an 'excellent' king – laws were to be followed, forced loans were abolished, and he protected the rights of the Church.[i] This is a more modern view. However, Richard III is often considered to be the most 'evil' of our nation's kings.[ii] This idea has been built on from Tudor propaganda which was used to strengthen the Tudors own claim to the English throne. The main incident which inherently damaged the reputation of Richard III was the disappearance of the Princes in the Tower around 1483. It provoked 'shock and indignation' particularly as the princes were still children and had done nothing wrong.[iii] People believed that the Princes were in danger even before they vanished. People believed in Richard's guilt. But this has more significance historically than whether Richard actually committed the crime.[iv] The disappearance of the Princes rather than the death, adds fuel to the idea that Richard was in fact innocent of their murder.[v] Edward IV displayed the body of Henry VI after his death, so that people would know he was dead, and not use him as a figurehead for rebellion.

The Izaak Walton League was formed in 1922 to save outdoor America for future generations. The League's founders, who were avid anglers, chose to name the organization after Izaak Walton, the 17th century author of The Compleat Angler, one of the most famous books on fishing. We are one of the earliest conservation organizations to set an aggressive course to defend wild America by changing public policy. Almost every major, successful conservation program that America has in place today can be traced directly to a League activity or initiative.
Throughout more than 270 communities, our chapters advance the mission of the Izaak Walton League - restoring watersheds, reducing air pollution, fighting litter, protecting wildlife habitat and open spaces, and instilling conservation ethics in outdoor recreationists. Our commitment to communities has allowed us to endure for more than eight decades. Our optimism, our spirit, and our vision for a better outdoor America guide our work. For more information on the Izaak Walton League, please visit our Web site www.iwla.org.
The Izaak Walton League of America's Project Watershed is an award-winning environmental education and community outreach program. Since 1994, we have engaged Central New York middle school, high school, and college students and adult volunteers in monitoring water quality and conserving local streams. More than 1200 student and adult volunteers participate in the program each year.
Engage students and adult volunteers in monitoring water quality and learning about water resources and pollution prevention strategies.
Improve science education in high schools by providing outdoor learning opportunities, real-life applications of student science, and related curriculum activities.
Provide quality-assured information on stream health to local, state, and federal agencies, environmental organizations, schools, and the public.
Encourage lifestyle changes in high school students and adults that will lead to water conservation and pollution prevention in their communities.
Improve the water quality and wildlife habitat of streams in Central New York.
Teachers and professors receive educational materials and activities they can use in the classroom to educate students about water quality, stream ecology, nonpoint source pollution, and pollution prevention. Project Watershed staff works with the teachers to set up field trips to an area stream where staff and volunteers teach students about the importance of water quality monitoring and how to follow proper data collection procedures at the stream site. Students collect physical, chemical, and biological data. The data is checked for accuracy and then uploaded onto our online water quality database. Ours is the largest publicly accessible volunteer stream monitoring database in New York. Students use their own data, and that collected by other area schools, for analysis and comparison by using activities we provide. Government agencies, including Onondaga County and the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation, use the data for their watershed management and research.
Project Watershed provides everything needed for a successful monitoring event to participating schools and adult groups at no cost to them. A Project Watershed staff member or volunteer brings the equipment and expertise to every monitoring event. A teacher with little knowledge on the subject to begin with, and no money for such a program, need not feel that this great educational opportunity is out of reach.
Project Watershed has been directly improving water quality and wildlife habitat in the Central New York area for years. When Project Watershed monitors discovered a sudden drop in water quality in Bear Trap Creek, they alerted County and State authorities who then discovered a problem with de-icing chemicals from Syracuse International Airport. The airport later installed a water filtration system that has dramatically improved water quality in Bear Trap Creek. Joined by students, neighbors, and county officials, the Central New York IWLA Chapter has since held annual Beartrap Creek clean-ups and continues to monitor the creek. In the latest effort on Beartrap Creek, a Project Watershed school enhanced fish habitat by installing an in-stream structure. The effort proved to be successful. Recent monitoring has shown a significant improvement in the numbers and variety of insects, crustaceans, and fish found in that section of the stream.
In addition, monitoring results collected by Project Watershed volunteers are also used to impact public policy. High school students in Syracuse, New York, knew that a stream on school grounds had consistently high water quality based on regular biological and chemical monitoring through Project Watershed. They used this information and other facts to convince local zoning officials not to permit new development that could degrade water quality.
Project Watershed distinguishes itself by the commitment brought to it by the many volunteers and IWLA staff who devote their time and resources to ensure that the program achieves its mission of bringing a high-quality, hands-on natural resource educational program to students and adults, engaging them to become better stewards of our natural world.
To ensure that our objectives are met, Project Watershed has an advisory board made up of a consortium of educators, government and industrial environmentalists, water quality professionals, and Izaak Walton League members. The board provides in-kind support, guidance, and expertise to assist with the program's Web site, database management, community outreach, and finding ways to improve and grow Project Watershed.

Episode 61: Sandy Richardson (Part II)
October 27, 2022 Season 3 Episode 13
Sandy Richardson, a victim of the New York SAFE Act, is back to update us on her absurd and blood-boiling experience with getting falsely reported and having her rights restricted. She has since pursued multiple Freedom of Information Law requests and obtained overwhelming information that suggests the NY SAFE Act not only doesn't help people, but it actually keeps hundreds of thousands from seeking care.
Please share this episode as widely as you can, and particularly with healthcare workers.

Tyson Fury has been overwhelmed by the support he expects to receive when he battles with Martin Rogan at Belfast s Odyssey Arena on April 14 on the Hennessy Sports Unfinished Business show.
The titanic battle between Fury and Rogan will be broadcast live on Channel 5.
Fury has been locked away in Manchester training like never before but has been made aware of those coming to the Odyssey who will be willing him to victory in his vacant all-Ireland heavyweight title fight with Belfast hard man Rogan.
The support that I have been getting is unbelievable. When I boxed in Belfast last year I got a fantastic reception wherever I went and on the night the atmosphere was amazing, commented Fury. Now the Irish fans are getting right behind me, they want to see me knock out Rogan. They know how good I am and they know a real Irish warrior when they see one. You ll never see me sit on my stool and quit or complain about a bad toe - I m the real deal.
Rogan probably thought that he would have all the support in the arena on April 14 but he s in for a shock because I m going to feed off the great support that is coming my way.
I m very proud of my Irish roots, my uncle lives just outside Belfast, so there s going to be great support for me and I will do them proud by knocking out wee Rogie.
He s a proud guy and I m sure he ll give it his best but when you look at the two of us there s a big difference in class and that will be the difference on the night.
Fury also says that he wants the victory over Rogan to be the start of a series of fights on Irish soil, leading to a world heavyweight title shot.
The Irish fans are just fantastic, I really feel at home there. The Odyssey Arena is going to be packed out, the tickets are flying and after I beat Rogan I know the fans will want to come back again and again because they will have a world class heavyweight to support.
Bringing a world heavyweight title fight to Irish soil would be very special and there s nobody else can do that except me.

Labor making a dogs breakfast of puppy farm reform
Labor making a dogs breakfast…
Victorians are forced to pay more for power, pay more for a home and now they'll pay more for a pet under Daniel Andrews' failed animal welfare reforms.
The Andrews Labor Government is making a dogs breakfast of its puppy farm reforms.
Instead of focusing on people who are operating illegally, Labor is targeting people who are breeding animals responsibly, ethically and legally.
There's no scientific evidence to support Jaala Pulford's decision to put responsible and lawful dog breeders out of business by limiting the number of fertile female dogs.
The RSPCA told the Inquiry into the Domestic Animals Amendment (Puppy Farms and Pet Shops) Bill 2016 there was "no evidence to show that the number of fertile female animals that you have has a significant bearing on the animal welfare" (p 32)
The Australian Veterinary Association (AVA) agreed, telling the Inquiry:
"Animal welfare is not dictated by the number of dogs a person has; it is more dictated by the attitude that the animal owner has or the people in charge of looking after those animals" (p 33)
It's clear Labor's desperate to get its reforms through no matter the cost, only sharing the full details of its House amendments with key stakeholders days before they were announced.
All Labor's reforms will achieve is to make it harder and more expensive for people to get the family pet of their choice.

What To Do When Students Flagrantly Disregard The Rules

The following comment was left yesterday and I thought it was worthy of its own article as I have seen numerous things of this type happen over the years: This is my first year as a professional teacher; I have three (90-minute block scheduled) enthusiastic groups of students who have begun to test their boundaries. I love the students, and I want to keep them secure and in control. Perhaps someone might have some advice on a discipline problem I encountered yesterday: Yesterday, almost half of my last class left two minutes before the bell rang. The chaotic clean-up process, which I will adjust, contributed to their opportunism, but I was shocked, angered, and embarrassed that this happened. I took

Questions That Will Save Your Career Where Have All The Good Teachers Gone? The Best Time To Be A Teacher?

I've been thinking lately about trying to have each day be a sort of theme day. I don't intend on posting every day (that's not realistic for me at this time), but I would like for things to be a bit better aligned. So for instance, if I write a list article, I'll schedule it for the next available Monday. If I have a blogging article, I'll schedule it for the next available Wednesday. Or something along those lines. Here's the ideas I've come up with: Monday Music Monday - I am a band director. I haven't posted a whole lot about teaching band.

As I have mentioned before, my priorities as a first year teacher were a little bit off. It wasn't until the end of my second year before I began to really "get it." I still don't get it, but I have begun to. What I learned in the last two and a half months of that second school year was that I needed to ask questions. But not just any questions. Over time, I have learned that a lot of
