The Galva–Holstein School District is a rural public school district in Ida County, Iowa, United States, based in Holstein, Iowa.

The district, which serves Holstein and Galva, is mostly in Ida County, with sections in Buena Vista, Cherokee, and Sac counties.

As the district shares a superintendent and some schools with the Schaller-Crestland Community School District, the two operate under the name "Ridge View Community School District".

History

It was established on July 1, 1980, by the merger of the merger of the Galva and Holstein school districts. Galva was previously known as the Galva Blue Devils. Holstein held the title of Pirates. Once Galva and Holstein merged, they were then known as the Galva–Holstein Pirates.

Beginning circa 2010, it engaged in a grade-sharing agreement with the Schaller-Crestland Community School District, and also shared superintendents with that district.

Before grade-sharing began, Galva–Holstein had numerous sports sharing agreements with surrounding schools. This included Schaller-Crestland (wrestling and football primarily) and Aurelia Community School (exclusively wrestling). During this time the teams were known by several different names including: Buffalo Ridge Bison (football sharing with Schaller-Crestland) and the AGHSC (Aurelia, Galva–Holstein, Schaller-Crestland) Stonecutters (wrestling with Aurelia and Schaller-Crestland).

Galva–Holstein has had fierce rivalry with neighboring school district, Battle Creek–Ida Grove (Currently known as OABCIG with the merger of Odeboldt Arthur). Though this rival has toned down some, it is still a part of history within the school and is often discussed during alumni reunions.

Ridge View has found a new rival within their sports conferences. MVAOCOU (Maple Valley, Anthon–Oto, Charter Oak–Ute) has become a popular rival within the district.

In recent years, Ridge View began sports sharing with River Valley community school district. Sports currently being shared are Wrestling and Men's and Women's track and field.

Schools
, it operates two elementary schools, Holstein Elementary School (PreK–2nd grade) and Galva Elementary School (grades 3–5), as well as Ridge View High School in Holstein. The district grade-shares with Ridge View Middle School in Early, operated by Schaller-Crestland.

The Galva–Holstein School District previously had one elementary school, one middle school, and one high school.

Life on the Executive MBA programme at Cambridge Judge Business School.
The EMBA Class of 2016 organised a variety show to raise money for BEGIN, a charity founded by one of their fellow students.
2016 EMBA Kasim Hussain shared with the cohort that he was funding a college education for two Nigerian girls who were otherwise unable to afford college tuition. Kasim solicited suggestions from the cohort for his new charity's name and eventually settled on Bringing Education to Girls In Nigeria (BEGIN). The main goal of the charity is to encourage young women from poor families to get their education before they get married. Kasim estimated that it would cost $6,000 to fund each girl.
Kasim Hussain (EMBA 2016), founder of BEGIN, introduces the show (c) Maximillian Ge.
Sure that we could raise the funds to send one more girl to college, Ali Harrison and I suggested to the 2016 EMBAs that we organise a variety show to raise the $6,000. Kasim, Enzo Lamberti, Rashid Zuberi and Ricard Martin quickly offered planning assistance and a large segment of the 2016 cohort took part in some way.
Ali Harrison (EMBA 2016) and Enzo Lamberti (EMBA 2016) performing a duet (c) Maximillian Ge.
Ali and Enzo hosted our event and kept everyone apprised of our fundraising progress throughout the night.
Steve Lile manned the sound system and Maximillian Ge cheerfully took professional photos on no notice.
Robert Adediran opened the show with a singalong and Nofel Izz sang More than Words.
Samir Khan and Vanessa Marcie performed stand-up comedy.
Sebastien Long offered a memorable analysis of the cohort's social media trends.
Melissa Stringer and Sam Fityan took to the stage to sing about Chicago when technical difficulties kept our salsa dancers from performing.
Rashid led the fathers in the cohort in "dad dancing" to close the event.
Erin Bradley, Carlos Redondo, Enrique Garza and Ricard organized a cash bar to raise additional funds.
Hitesh Sanganee ordered pizza to feed all in attendance.
Others helped set up, clean up or stock the bar.
Professor Simon Learmount donated the funds he won off our cohort during a Management Praxis lesson.
More than 100 EMBAs from the two cohorts attended the show, which was held in the basement of Pembroke College one Saturday evening after a 2016/2017 EMBA mixer at Judge. Organized by busy EMBAs with no budget, the One More Girl fundraiser was a testament to what a group of like-minded individuals can pull off with a bit of inspiration. No one was in charge but the show almost fell into place organically as people volunteered to support BEGIN.
Vanessa Marcie (EMBA 2016) performed her stand-up comedy routine for the fundraiser (c) Maximillian Ge.
Some contributions were made in advance of the event but the goal was to reach $6,000 that night. During the evening, an anonymous 2016 EMBA pledged to fund a second girl's college education if we met our goal, but swore us to secrecy. Having started with a goal of raising $6,000 to send one more girl to college, we ultimately raised enough to send two girls to college. After fielding 88 qualified applicants, BEGIN has selected the recipients of the $13,441 raised by the EMBAs.
Maryam's family had to borrow the funds needed to take the Nigerian university entrance exams. Maryam comes from Northern Nigeria, which has the lowest female university attendance rate in Nigeria. Her father earns less than $50 per month as a security guard. Maryam will now be able to attend Nasarawa State University to study Chemistry.
Sa'adatu, also from Northern Nigeria, will study microbiology at Nasarawa State University. Her father, a cap washer, was unable to send her to college. She planned to commence her studies in January 2018.
Five orphaned girls, aged 6-9 years old, are now attending elementary school in Keana, Northern Nigeria, on scholarships from BEGIN. BEGIN has committed to send these girls to elementary school, secondary school and university.
For more information about BEGIN, please contact Hussain Kasim, EMBA 2016 at hussainkasim@begin-ngo.com. Visit the BEGIN website.

Blood test can predict risk of developing tuberculosis
by NIH/National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases
This photomicrograph reveals Mycobacterium tuberculosis bacteria using acid-fast Ziehl-Neelsen stain; Magnified 1000 X. The acid-fast stains depend on the ability of mycobacteria to retain dye when treated with mineral acid or an acid-alcohol solution such as the Ziehl-Neelsen, or the Kinyoun stains that are carbolfuchsin methods specific for M. tuberculosis. Credit: public domain
One-third of the world's population is thought to be infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), the bacterium that causes tuberculosis (TB), but just a small fraction ever develops symptomatic illness. Now, an international team of researchers has identified biological markers in the blood of latently infected people that may give doctors a tool they have long sought: a way to predict who is at high risk of developing active TB. If validated through additional clinical trials, a test based on these blood biomarkers would allow doctors to target therapies to at-risk people, thus preventing them from getting sick.
The decade-long research effort was led by investigators from the South African Tuberculosis Vaccine Initiative at the University of Cape Town, and the Center for Infectious Disease Research, Seattle. It was funded in part by the National Institutes of Health.
The biomarkers were identified in two stages. First, researchers collected blood samples for two years from more than 6,000 Mtb-infected but otherwise healthy adolescent volunteers in South Africa. Analysis of the samples revealed patterns of gene expression that differed between volunteers who eventually developed TB and those who remained healthy. This risk "signature," confined to a set of 16 genes, could be detected in a blood sample as early as 18 months before the infected person developed active TB.
Next, the team confirmed the genetic risk signature's predictive ability in a study of more than 4,500 volunteers in South Africa and The Gambia. Volunteers in this study were healthy but lived with people who had recently been diagnosed with active TB. The second study group was more varied in age, health status, ethnicity and exposure to locally common strains of Mtb than volunteers in the first study. Despite the differences, the same risk signature found in the first study was detected in the people who eventually developed active TB during the second trial.

A Day in the Life at Fatu Hiva
[NOTE: Written May 5th, 2013]
I wake up earlier than everyone else, often at 7 am. I'll sit in the cockpit and enjoy the spectacular scenery of Fatu Hiva. The lush green mountains, steep cliffs plunging into the anchorage, and rock spires for which this anchorage was named Bay of Penises. You can often hear the naying of mountain goats, and the cockadoodle-doo of wild roosters on the hillside.
Panorama overlooking the anchorage at Fatu Hiva
On this particular day, at around 8 am I started to make breakfast, scrambled eggs with caramelized onions, mushrooms and canned pork. The smell of which soon woke up the rest of the crew and we dined in the cockpit. As we sat in the cockpit after breakfast a small aluminum skiff, all of the locals have boats in the identical style, pulled up to Starship and Jonathan chatted with them. We determined he was a local wood carver, and tried to figure out what he would like to trade for... ropes, fishing supplies, our 50L water jug... Finally he said to come by his house and look at his carvings and we could talk more about what to trade.
Anne-Marie and the pregnant tiki statue near the dock.
Nearly 10am and we collected ourselves and prepared the dinghy to head into shore. Our plan was to hike to a waterfall with a pool one can swim in at the base. On the way we pass by Sopi's house, the wood carver who visited us at Starship. He didn't have too many carvings available to show us, but they were nice. Busby asked Sopi about wild boar hunting, and got some directions to the waterfall.
The whole town seems to be filled with carvers and carvings.
The town here is really small, but even still Busby asked a few more locals for directions along the way. Finally we found the right turn off to head for the waterfall. It was a two track dirt/grass "road" for most of the way to the waterfall. We are struck by the beauty of the area, which is seemingly in the middle of nowhere, but well kept almost like a garden. The final stretch to the waterfall was over a rock strewn trail by the riverside. A hand full of people were leaving from the waterfall as we were hiking towards it, and by the time we got there we discovered we had the place all to ourselves! The waterfall was a beautiful cascade down the side of a rock cliff.
Beautiful flowers are everywhere, along with beautiful views and scents.
The waterfall!
It was about 1 pm by the time we arrived at the waterfall. We sat on some large rocks in the shade and ate some oranges we got from Sopi and other snacks we had packed, while enjoying view of the waterfall and river beside us. After our snack Anne-Marie and I started to head into the pool for a swim. Surprisingly Busby said he wasn't going to go swimming. After we called that he should come in, and he discovered it was deep enough to jump off a cliff into the pool, he couldn't resist.
Chris & Jonathan ready to jump!
Busby jumps in fine style.
Anne-Marie shows off the waterfall and pool.
After a much faster walk down the mountain, we arrived in town at about 3 pm, and started looking for other wood carvers to checkout their goods. The Marquesas are well known for their beautiful and detailed wood and bone carvings. The island of Fatu Hiva is especially unique since it doesn't have an airstrip and is only accessible by boat. Busby took us to Tava's house, an artist he had met the day before. Tava's had more carvings, of better quality and at a lower price than Sopi, and we enjoyed inspecting them. Then Anne-Marie found a tiki which was calling her name! A large pregnant tiki, holding it's belly which was engraved with the Marquesan cross, the same symbol that is in the middle of her turtle tattoo. The sticker on the bottom said about $180, but after some tough negotiating Anne-Marie got him down to $80 and some items off of the boat. We asked Tava to carve his initials and the year into the bottom of the tiki, and when we returned with the items from the boat, we discovered he had carved the year as 2014. Anne-Marie took this as a sign for when her own pregnancy will occur, and was very pleased.
Anne-Marie with her pregnant tiki and "2014" as we called him.
Another wood carver, Topi, saw us at Tava's house and waited outside to take us to see his own carvings. He also had a great selection of really impressive work! I was really keen on getting an elaborately carved bowl he had, but the price tag was around $300! After some really tough negotiation mediated by Busby, we got him down to the following:
1 headlamp + 12 batteries
Books, pencils and other supplies for his kids
Lotion and decorative key chain for his wife
Fishing gear - 4 lures and some a few dozen hooks
Without an airstrip, stuff often has more value than money when trading here, which has been handy for us.
Anne-Marie and I with Temo, our favorite artisan.
By about 5pm we were returning to the boat when we saw our friends from SV Nyon in the anchorage. We hadn't seem them since La Paz back in December and went over to pay them a visit. We invited them over for dinner to catch up, and Busby treated them to some delicious seared yellow fin tuna (which we caught a few days ago) and flambeed banana desert. It was great to catch up and hear how their crossing went. It's always nice to see a familiar face on the other side of the world in paradise.
Finally we settled down for the night at about 9 pm, as the wind started to pickup from the valley as it often does at night here. The wind sweeps down the steep cliffs and blows out to sea. The anchorage is a bit deep and falls steeply off into the sea, often causing problems for boats the don't anchor well. At 10 pm Anne-Marie awoke to the sound of an anchor windlass running, and got me up as well. We both poked our heads out the vberth hatch and observed as a boat directly upwind of us was hauling up their anchor and driving around in the dark. Their anchor had dragged and they needed to re-anchor in the bay. When they started to drop their anchor directly up wind of us, it became time to get dressed and pay particular attention to this boat. Moment's after getting on deck it was clear that where this boat was attempting to drop their anchor would result in them crashing right into us. Busby yelled something at them and I yelled we had 300 feet of scope out, finally he realized that he was in a bad position, but nearly too late! As we had been yelling, he had been getting blown towards us quite quickly, and he was now about a boat length to port (left), just ahead of our bow. By the time he got back to his helm and gunned the engine, his prop wash (the tendency of the propeller to initially spin the boat sideways before building forward momentum) sent his stern directly towards our bow! Busby and I were standing right at the bow of Starship, Busby pushed the other boat away as it swung inches away from our bow, and had to duck as the other boat's solar panels passed over our bow pulpit!
The other boat started to pickup their anchor for yet another attempt, when all of a sudden one could see there was a problem with getting the chain up. They had jammed their windlass somehow, and were now running ropes back to cockpit winches to try and get the anchor up. Anne-Marie in the meantime had gone to the stern and started to collect fenders in case of another close encounter. While the other boat was trying to unjam their windlass, they started to blow back on us again and Busby ran to the stern to get the fenders from Anne-Marie, telling her "They are coming again!!". Now the three of us were at the bow fenders in hand as again the other boat gunned their engine to get away from us! This time they passed about 5 feet in front of our bow, which we all agreed seemed like miles away compared to the last time.
During this whole ordeal the captain of the other boat was screaming obscenities and insults at his wife, the likes of which I wouldn't say to a dog which had bitten me. Meanwhile his wife like a deer in headlights, was terrified to do anything besides the orders so harshly shouted at her, and terrified even more about fulfilling those orders incorrectly. Finally they had managed to get their anchor on board, and went out of the anchorage to get this sorted out, giving us a much needed break from the chaos. We waited anxiously in the cockpit for their next attempt at anchoring, with the spreader lights on to ensure their was no confusion as to where we were in the anchorage. A half dozen other boats in the anchorage were also lit up having seen all the commotion. Finally the third time was a charm, they came in and dropped their anchor on our port side, such that they fell back safely downwind of us. Again we waited to be sure that they were not dragging and going to make another attempt, when at last their running lights were turned off and their anchor light turned on.
Anne-Marie said she had never been so terrified during the whole crossing, or our prior year of cruising, as that night with that dragging boat. Indeed it was certainly the closest call we have had while at anchor, and goes to show that even if you are doing everything right, the biggest danger may be your neighbor who isn't.

Aromatic, nutritious and tasty dish packed with protein, fibre and antioxidants.
I always called this Garlic Veg or 蒜菜 or 蒜花. So I did not know how to name this recipe in English until I found on google that it is called Garlic Scapes or Garlic Blossoms. This is not a vegetable that is commonly consumed. My dear husband didn't quite know what it was because he has never really had it.
Truth be told, I did not quite like garlic scapes as a kid. It is better than leeks which I only started eating in recent 3 years thanks to Ed. But still not a favourite. It was not till I was in China that I started appreciating this vegetable. Well, now that I eat this and leek and bean sprouts, I think there is no vegetable that I know of out there that I do not eat…? Hmmm… I feel so grown up!!!
There is a lot to love about this vegetable. It is more fragrant than pungent as compared to leek, and has a crunchy texture and fragrant sweetness. And of course it is highly nutritious. This can also be used to replace garlic and green onions in your dishes.
Health wise, garlic scapes may increase the oxygen level in our blood to keep our organs healthy, and takes some load off our kidney and liver by protecting them from oxidative stress especially when attacked by toxins. They are also known to contain high levels of allium compounds, thus preventing osteoarthritis and keeping our bones strong. Being part of the garlic plant, they are also high in anti-oxidants and boosts our immune system. Apparently they are also anti-cancer, thanks to the diallyl sulphide in this green stalks.
So this is a vegetable that has been quite neglected and not something you can easily find in restaurants, thus if you do cook at home occasionally, this is one dish you should try to make for yourself. One of my favourite ways of eating it is to fry it with tomato, tau kwa and prawns. It also goes well with vinegar marinated pork slices as well as well as in fried noodles. Oh my… I am getting hungry thinking of this! Actually, I thought of this dish because I was working on my tau kwa story to share different ways to have tau kwa. For more healthy recipes, please visit our homepage.
Do share with us on what else you do with this healthy, crunchy aromatic vegetable. On a side note, it is quite easy to grow these. Just put some cloves of sprouting garlic (don't throw those out) into a pot of soil and it will sprout into these. Well, if it is too little to eat, then let the flowers bloom and they are really pretty and these are edible flowers that you can use for food decoration too!
Heat up frying pan with olive oil and fry prawns till just cooked. Set aside.
Add a little oil into frying pan to heat. Then add garlic and garlic scapes. and fry over medium to high heat. Add tomatoes.
Dissolve corn starch in water and pour in. Season with wine, oyster sauce, fish sauce, salt and pepper and bring to boil, stirring constantly.
Add tau kwa and prawns into the frying pan and toss or stir constantly to coat them evenly with sauce.
Plate and serve with rice or porridge.

'New Aguero' to Liverpool? Klopp wants 'unique' €14m attacker hailed as Argentina's 'standout' young player
11/03/2015 11:15:00 pm | Jaimie K
Liverpool are reportedly considering a January move for Atletico Madrid attacker Angel Correa, who is also being tracked by by Manchester City and Paris St. Germain.
According to Spanish Sports magazine Don Balon this week:
"The progression of Angel Correa has not gone unnoticed amongst Europe's biggest teams and...Liverpool are already preparing to make an offer".
Some info about €14m-rated Correa, dubbed the 'new Sergio Aguero':
* Secondary striker, who can also play as a centre-forward, right winger, and attacking midfielder.
* 3 goals/assists in 10 games for Atletico Madrid.
* 1 goal in 3 apps for the Argentina national team.
* According to an ESPN scouting report: "Explosive burst of pace; excellent balance and control. Correa's bright combination play and strong shot mean that defenders are unable to stand off him".
* June 2014: Had surgery to remove a benign tumour on his heart.
* Dec 2014: Helped Argentina U20 win the South American Championship (7 goals/assists in the tournament).
* Sep 2015: Diego Simeone's assessment: "He [Correa] is a unique player who has no fear. He can turn well in the box and is very dangerous. He has vision in small spaces, and the audacity and rebelliousness that one needs to play football".
* Sept 2015: After being called up to the senior Argentina squad, Gerardo Martino enthused: "His [Correa's] call-up was inevitable because he is Argentina's standout young player."
Liverpool rejected the chance to sign Loic Remy due to a 'heart defect' (confirmed by Remy himself last season), so it seems unlikely that the club will now spend big bucks on a player who recently suffered a significant heart-related issue.
Correa may be Argentina's 'standout' young player, but the reality is that his career consists of of just ten senior appearances so far. As such, it's probably a good idea to see how he develops before taking the plunge.
In any event, why would Correa leave Atletico? The club nursed him through his heart issue, and signed him irrespective of the problem. He owes them big time, and I can't see him quitting the club just months after getting back to full health.

How to choose the correct Filter?
With a built-in magnetic frame, Computer and Electronic dust filters fits over the air intakes of your electronic or computer equipment. It is designed to fit onto computer cases and needs no special screws or skills to attach.
The intake vents we refer to are the grills or ventilation holes in your computer's case where cooling air enters the case. Some of these vents may have fans mounted behind it to direct the airflow in any specific direction and others are unfanned. To determine which vents are intakes, it is suggested to make use of a sheet of paper. With the computer or electronic unit switched on and running, loosely hold a sheet of thin paper in front of every vent opening or grill. If the sheet moves closer to the case, and gets sucked against it, then you would know that this vent is an intake vent and needs to be filtered. Choose the filters that would best cover the openings.
Dust can however enter the case through a myriad of other openings in the case, such as Optical Drives, USB and other ports that will be very hard to filter. The solution is in setting up your system to be positive pressure and to filter the intakes. In short this means that more air must enter the case where it can be filtered so that the higher pressure inside the case will leak out of every crack and port in the casing so stopping dust from entering there.
Computer Air Filters fits by way of a magnetic frame that is part of its structural design. This would adhere directly to the case and if the case is non-ferrous (it has no iron in its composition so that a magnet is not attracted to it) we supply you with a peel and stick magnetic frame (optional extra) that is fitted onto your PC case, around the air intake area. Dust Filter will attach to this frame, making it easy to remove and clean when necessary. The mesh used for filtering is a very durable high precision medical grade mesh.
The extra magnets or ferrous tape that is supplied with the filters (optional extra) are for use on non-ferrous cases like those made of aluminium or acrylics. Most distributors will include and send it as a unit, but make sure when you place your order.
• Fitting PC Dust Filters over exhaust vents.
• Expose PC Dust Filters to strong magnets as this will demagnetize the built-in magnet or weaken it. Exessive heat will tend to do the same.
• Do not bend PC Dust Filter sharply as this might cause creases in the mesh that will be difficult to remove.
You may ask why not just stick the filter to the case? The reason is that Dust Filters are re-usable and it was designed to make cleaning of the filter as easy as possible as this operation could be more frequent than expected, depending on its location and conditions.
How to choose the correct Filter.
Standard Filters - Filters designed to fit all standard sized fans. Various sizes and shapes.
Square Filters - Filters that is square in shape and is available in different sizes.
Rectangular Filters - Filters that is rectangular in shape and is available in different sizes.
Round Filters- Filters that is round in shape and is available in different sizes.
Custom Filters - This section allows you to design filters to fit your exact needs. Filters designed by you to any specification that you may require in any shape, colour and size.
These filters can be ordered in a variety of frame colours and a choice between black or white filtering mesh.
Consider the following when choosing your filter, then decide.
1. Determine where the air intake vents on the unit are situated. All intake vents should be filtered.
2. Measure the length and width of the air intake vents. Measure the distances 1 (O/D) & 2 (I/D) shown in the figure below. The minimum frame size is 10mm. This has to do with the structural integrity of the filter. Sometimes it will be better to choose a bigger sized filter to make sure that all the holes around a fan is covered.
4. Determine if the area where the filter is needed is ferrous or non-ferrous. Ferrous cases contain iron (Fe) and magnets will be attracted to it. Non-ferrous cases are made of substances like aluminium and acrylics. Magnets will not hold to these, so you will have to indicate "non-ferrous" from the dropdown list when you place an order. These filters come with an extra magnetic frame/ ferrous tape that must be peeled and stuck to the case around the intake vent that needs to be filtered. The filter will adhere to this magnetically.
5. Install the free Filter Alarm software that can be downloaded. Keep an eye on the filters to determine how regularly it needs cleaning. Set the alarm accordingly.
6. Click "Add to Cart" and follow the checkout process.
it may be used to protect all electronic devices from the ingress of dust and dirt.
All industrial electronic equipment like CNC controllers, laser cutters/engravers, chillers etc.

Q: How to reset Django admin password? I am using Django (version 1.3) and have forgotten both admin username and password. How to reset both?
And is it possible to make a normal user into admin, and then remove admin status?

A: python manage.py changepassword username

A: You may try this:
1.Change Superuser password without console
python manage.py changepassword <username>

2.Change Superuser password through console

A: You may also have answered a setup question wrong and have zero staff members.  In which case head to postgres:
obvioustest=# \c [yourdatabasename]
obvioustest=# \x
obvioustest=# select * from auth_user;
-[ RECORD 1 ]+-------------
id           | 1
is_superuser | f
is_staff     | f
...

To fix, edit directly:
update auth_user set is_staff='true' where id=1;

A: If you forgot create admin user first build one with createsuperuser command on manage.py then change the password.

A: if you forget your admin then you need to create new user by using
python manage.py createsuperuser <username>

and for password there is CLI  command changepassword  for django to change user password
python manage.py changepassword <username>

OR
django-admin changepassword <username>

OR Run this code in Django env
from django.contrib.auth.models import User
u = User.objects.get(username='john')
u.set_password('new password')
u.save()

A: In case you do not know the usernames as created here. You can get the users as described by @FallenAngel above.
python manage.py shell
from django.contrib.auth.models import User
usrs = User.objects.filter(is_superuser=True)
#identify the user
your_user = usrs.filter(username="yourusername")[0]
#youruser = usrs.get(username="yourusername")
#then set the password

However in the event that you created your independent user model. A simple case is when you want to use email as a username instead of the default user name. In which case your user model lives somewhere such as your_accounts_app.models then the above solution wont work.
In this case you can instead use the get_user_model method
from django.contrib.auth import get_user_model
super_users = get_user_model().objects.filter(is_superuser=True)
#proceed to get identify your user
# and set their user password

A: You can create a new superuser with createsuperuser command.

A: *

*python manage.py createsuperuser will create another superuser, you will be able to log into admin and rememder your username.

*Yes, why not.

To give a normal user privileges, open a shell with python manage.py shell and try:
from django.contrib.auth.models import User
user = User.objects.get(username='normaluser')
user.is_superuser = True
user.save()

A: In addition to @JamesO answer that states using
python manage.py changepassword [username]

if you don't remember your username :
1- while in your project's main directory access the database (I'm using sqlite3):
sqlite3 db.sqlite3

2- list the content of the auth_user table
SELECT * FROM auth_user ;

3- look for the user that has is_superuser = 1 , in my case it's admin
screenshot of the command output (I don't have enough rep points)

A: Another thing that is worth noting is to set your user's status is_staff as active. At least, that's what makes it works for me. For more detail, I created another superuser as people explained above. Then I go to the database table auth_user and search for that username to make sure its is_staff flag is set to 1. That finally allowed me to log into admin site.

A: Create a new superuser with the command "python manage.py createsuperuser".
Login as the new super user. Click on the 'users' link. Then click on the user you want to delete. click on delete user at the end of the form page.
Note - The above process will make changes to the activity logs done by that particular user.

A: If you're using custom user model
(venv)your_prj $ ./manage.py shell
>>> from customusers.models import CustomUser
>>> CustomUser.objects.filter(is_superuser=True)
>>> user = CustomUser.objects.get(email="somesuper@sys.com")
>>> user.set_password('@NewPwd')
>>> user.save()
>>> exit()

A: This is very good question.
python manage.py changepassword user_name
Example :-
python manage.py changepassword mickey

A: You may try through console:
python manage.py shell

then use following script in shell
from django.contrib.auth.models import User
User.objects.filter(is_superuser=True)

will list you all super users on the system. if you recognize yur username from the list:
usr = User.objects.get(username='your username')
usr.set_password('raw password')
usr.save()

and you set a new password (:

A: One of the best ways to retrieve the username and password is to view and update them. The User Model provides a perfect way to do so.
In this case, I'm using Django 1.9

*

*Navigate to your root directory i,e. where you "manage.py" file is located using your console or other application such as Git.

*Retrieve the Python shell using the command  "python manage.py shell".

*Import the User Model by typing the following command
"from django.contrib.auth.models import User"

*Get all the users by typing the following command
"users = User.objects.all()"

*Print a list of the users
For Python 2 users use the command "print users"
For Python 3 users use the command "print(users)"
The first user is usually the admin.

*Select the user you wish to change their password e.g.
"user = users[0]"

*Set the password
user.set_password('name_of_the_new_password_for_user_selected')

*Save the new password
"user.save()"
Start the server and log in using the username and the updated password.

A: new setup should first run python manage.py createsuperuser to create user. It seems like there is no default username password to login into admin.

A: Two ways to do this:
The changepassword management command:
(env) $ python manage.py changepassword <username>

Or (which expands upon a few answers, but works for any extended User model) using the django-admin shell as follows:
(env) $ python manage.py shell

This should bring up the shell command prompt as follows:
Python 3.7.2 (default, Mar 27 2019, 08:44:46)
[GCC 6.3.0 20170516] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
(InteractiveConsole)
>>>

Then you would want the following:
>>> from django.contrib.auth import get_user_model
>>> User = get_user_model()
>>> user = User.objects.get(username='admin@hug.com')
>>> user.set_password('new password')
>>> user.save()
>>> exit()

N.B. Why have I answered this question with this answer?
Because, as mentioned, User = get_user_model() will work for your own custom User models. Using from django.contrib.auth.models import User then User.objects.get(username='username') may throw the following error:
AttributeError: Manager isn't available; 'auth.User' has been swapped for 'users.User'

A: python manage.py changepassword <user_name>

see docs

A: The best way is to just go to your terminal and type
python manage.py createsuperuser

and insert another password and user name again
but u will lost some of your profile that u have created before in most cases.

A: Just type this command in your command line:
python manage.py changepassword yourusername

A: use

python manage.py dumpdata

then look at the end you will find the user name

A: I think,The better way
At the command line

python manage.py createsuperuser

A: If a reset_password link is needed in the /admin/ website this is the way to go:
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.2/ref/contrib/admin/#adding-a-password-reset-feature

A: Another way to get the user name (and most of the information) is to access the database directly and read the info from the tables.

On Tuesday, Sept. 13, the Center for Equal Opportunity attacked the University of Wisconsin–Madison for its diversity efforts. University officials have not yet had an opportunity to analyze all of CEO's data and claims.
When it comes to admissions, UW–Madison employs a holistic, competitive and selective process for undergraduate, graduate and professional schools. That process takes into account a range of factors, including grades, standardized test scores, recommendations, extracurricular activities, leadership and written statements.
UW–Madison's approach is consistent with the U.S. Supreme Court's decisions in the Michigan affirmative action cases that say race is a permissible factor in consideration of holistic admissions.
"Any student who is accepted at UW–Madison is here because he or she has the potential and the capacity to succeed," says UW–Madison Interim Chancellor David Ward. "No matter what a student's class rank or test scores were, students who are accepted qualify for a spot at this university. No one is admitted solely because of race or ethnicity."
Admissions director Adele Brumfield, who is in her second year at UW–Madison, says her mission is to recruit a high-quality and diverse freshman class. This includes recruiting students from groups that are underrepresented at UW–Madison, including not only ethnic minorities, but international students, those from rural Wisconsin, first-generation college students and women in sciences.
"While holistic in our admissions, there are certain parameters and high standards that must be met," Brumfield says. "We stand behind our process, which is continually refined and enhanced, to admit classes that are both diverse and meritorious."
Damon Williams, UW–Madison's chief diversity officer and vice provost for diversity and climate, says the presence of diversity in all of its forms helps to create the type of learning environment needed to prepare students for a diverse and interconnected world.
"We believe deeply in what we are doing at the university and every student has the potential and the academic profile to be successful at UW–Madison," Williams says. "The commentary offered by CEO fails to recognize this point and that the presence of social diversity enhances the excellence of our institution in so many ways."
Associated Students of Madison Chair Allie Gardner added "we are a land-grant institution that is founded in serving the public of Wisconsin. Thus, we cannot only ensure that accessibility is equal, but that it is equitable. We do not need to defend this, but we do need to defend our university from influence and pressure from outsider organizations that do not have the best interests of our students, our university or our state in mind."

It's no secret I'm a fan of Colin Farrell.
His best work is done when he has a chance to be both dramatic and comedic in nature, and perhaps a bit quirky. Doesn't that seem like the essence of The Lobster in the...shell?
In the near future, according to the rules of the City, all single people must visit the Hotel where they must find a mate within 45 days or else become an animal. Literally. They're then sent off into the woods to live out there days, although by the trailer, it appears it doesn't always work out that way.
Apparently, Farrell's character will escape his fate into the Woods and fall in love with a Loner.
There is no US release date that I can find, but it's hitting theaters in Europe mid October. You lucky bastards!

The leaders of the Catholic Church and the World Council of Churches represent a majority of the world's Christians so their meeting in Rome this week was important for global peace.
They met during discussions on an important doctrinal letter on peace from a man who is now on the verge of becoming a saint.
Pope John XXIII's Cold War era Encyclical Pacem in Terris or "Peace on Earth," remains "extremely contemporary. It can act as a guide to peace-building in today's world said Pope Francis at the meeting.
Pope Francis met participants and spoke on October 3 at the three day Vatican conference celebrating the 50th anniversary of the John XXIII's 1963 Encyclical Letter.
As well as the general secretary of the World Council of Churches, Rev. Olav Fyske Tveit, experts from the United Nations, Catholic universities and institutions, the Council of Europe, the African Union, and the Organization of American States were invited to Rome by the Pontifical Council for Justice and Peace to discuss the relevance of Pacem in Terris today.
Francis noted the document was written in the most critical period of the Cold War, when humanity feared it was on the brink of a worldwide atomic conflict due to the lingering confrontation between the two superpowers, the United States and the Soviet Union.
John XXIII, who will be elevated to sainthood in 2104, launched his dramatic appeal for peace to world leaders.
"It was a cry to mankind, but also a plea to Heaven.
"The dialogue that opened, with some difficulty, between the two great opposing blocs led them to overcome this phase during the pontificate of the other blessed pope, John Paul II, and to open up space for freedom and dialogue," said Francis.
"The seeds of peace sown by blessed John XXIII bore fruit but, despite the fall of walls and barriers, the world continues to hunger for peace and the appeal made in 'Pacem in terris' retains a powerful current relevance."
t the context of the encyclical in the 1960s when the world was on the brink of a nuclear war, peoples were overcoming colonial rule and joining the United Nations, and the civil rights movement was changing the United States.
"Surely," he said,"the encyclical responds to the contemporary context and is, indeed, reading the signs of the times.
"We can discern the consequences of Pacem in Terris today when His Holiness Pope Francis calls for a peaceful solution in Syria and condemns the proliferation of wars and conflicts.
This was where Francis' words mesh with what the WCC sought at a September 18 meeting held on Syria in Geneva with church leaders from Syria, Russia, United States, Britain, France, Germany and Turkey.
At that meeting they issued a call for an inter-faith peace meeting on Syria after talks with Kofi Annan, former United Nations general secretary, and Lakhdar Brahimi, UN-Arab League joint representative for Syria.
"We discussed with one another and with Mr. Annan and Mr. Brahimi from the U.N., listening to their advice on what we could do to contribute to peace and reconciliation in Syria.
"Our joint communiqué said, 'Churches worldwide have spoken out against the war in Syria [and] must continue to raise their voices in their congregations and with their governments.
"We must strengthen the public outcry so that those in power will protect the common interest of humanity."
In Rome, Tveit called on the churches to be congregations of peacemakers.
He invited the Roman Catholic Church and the Pontifical Council to join in the "ecumenical pilgrimage for justice and peace," saying that "churches are included in God's work for peace."
