A three-alarm fire broke out at an apartment building in Lincoln on Friday afternoon.
Crews were called to the building on south 48th Street around 2:30 p.m.
Witnesses said at least one person jumped out of a second-story window to escape.
No one was seriously hurt.
At this point, there's no word on how the fire started.

The Real Poop
Space—the final frontier. These are the voyages of the starship Shmooperprise. Its continuing mission: to explore strange new careers; to seek out interesting facts and helpful advice; to boldly make jokes that no one has made before.
An astronaut's as close as a human can get to being captain of a starship—and that's cool, because that's actually part of it. It's not just about flying up to space and moving around without gravity holding you down; it's a career of startling variety, with an average salary orbiting around $90,000 or so a year (source). Astronauts can be called upon to do anything from operating a robotic arm on the International Space Station, to conducting earthbound experiments at bases in Texas or Florida, to fixing a defective toilet at zero gravity.
Yes, that's as ridiculous as it sounds.
Astronauts are scientists, explorers, teachers, and role models all rolled into one. They're men and women on a mission—even if there are fewer missions now than a few decades ago. Some of them are military personnel while others come from the civilian world, but the important part is that they're ready, willing, and psychologically able to make the journey beyond the wide blue yonder.
Before you space cowboys and cowgirls run off to NASA, first you should check out the chances of actually achieving your orbital dream.
A tiny percentage—about one-tenth of one percent—of astronaut applicants are accepted into the grueling astronaut training program. Then you've got to actually make it through said program, complete with all the physical, emotional, and vomitable rigors they throw at you.
For those who actually make it off planet Earth, enjoy that fun ride out of Kazakhstan; the U.S. ended its space shuttle program a few years ago and hasn't created its own replacement yet. So for now, if you want to get off the planet you'll have to muscle in on a Russian crew heading there in a Soyuz spacecraft.
Who cares, you say, as you try to figure out why President Putin is staring at you. I'm going up to space and you're not gonna stop me, Shmoop. Fine—you're committed to this, that's cool. And you're going to have to be committed; as we said before, the road to being an astronaut is a long and twisted one, and is physically and emotionally taxing.
For starters, claustrophobia's a big no-no for future astronauts of America. Space capsules and space stations make for a lot of up-close-and-personal living. You also have to be in great physical shape. Strong bones and muscles, reinforced by cardiovascular and weight-training exercises, are the antidote to what the weightlessness does to those body parts.
We'll paint you a picture: imagine what a toothpaste tube looks like near the end, and that's about what your muscles are going through in all that weightlessness time.
On the bright side, no one's going to expect you to do any dishes or re-register your car at the DMV while you're in space—so there's that.
You have to be good in science of course, but equally important are your social skills. Hear that, science fans? Playing well with others is crucial when you're bunched up against each other in a close quarters, in space, for up to six months—or even longer, as NASA prepares for a future manned mission to our cosmic sibling Mars.
So, you're still bent on being an astronaut. Now's the time to ask yourself, which kind? Let's assume that you don't want to be a "payload specialist," which is the domain of teachers, senators, and space tourists who can drop a few million on going up to space for a hot minute.
There's the pilot astronaut (a.k.a. "The Commander") who pilots the space vehicle—and typically has military experience (source).
Then there's the bulk of the crew which will be made up of mission specialists, who conduct science experiments and noodle around the space vehicle or station making repairs and launching satellites.
These folks come with earthly training as doctors, biologists, and engineers. What this all means is you're going to have to figure out your path and walk it—get that degree or fly those planes, and maybe they'll actually let you go to space.
Now, a little bit of truth time: you won't be spending a whole lot of your life in space. Most of the time, you'll be an astronaut who just happens to be walking around in normal gravity. Earthbound life includes committee meetings, speaking at schools, test-driving software and hardware, toiling at the NASA Johnson Space Center in Houston, and other such totally-not-in-space activities.
This life's known in astronautic vernacular as flying a desk, and in regular person vernacular as sitting at a desk.
We like the astro-version better.
The glory of being an astronaut—desk bound or not—is you get to participate in the bold quest of exploring the vast unknown that is the rest of the universe. It may be lonely out in space, but with all the people you'll be impressing on Earth, we're sure the welcome back party's going to be epic.

Quick Romantic Escapes
It's that time of year again. When florists, chocolatiers and card makers make a killing and the colours pink, white and red are around every corner. If you aren't the kind to indulge in the above, Condé Nast Traveller recommends whisking your partner away to one of these great—read: romantic—escapes from three Indian megacities.
Go on a romantic adventure in Shimla - Indulge in signature therapies like Himalayan Romance or Journey to Tibet at the hotel's simply named The Spa, lounge in the infinity whirlpool, swim in the heated indoor swimming pool, or work out at the gym.
Awaken your senses at Ananda Spa - Ananda in The Himalayas is a romantic getaway set in the serene mountains overlooking the Rishikesh Valley.
Retreat into the forest in Coorg - Head to the hills of Coorg to escape the hustle and bustle of city life.
Sail with your love in Kumarakom - Head to the picturesque backwaters of Kerala for a special romance aboard a houseboat.
Sun, sand and little R&R in Goa - Sunbathe at the beach, walk around quaint areas, unwind with a massage, indulge in rich seafood.
Travel back in time in Matheran - A closer getaway from Mumbai, scenic Matheran appeals to the romantic at heart as much as it does to the adventurist.

Haven't had time to dive into why exactly that is, but I've confirmed it broken on two separate installs.

Plan a Getaway to the Caribbean Netherlands
Before planning your getaway to the islands there are three questions you must answer first. Do you already know which island(s) you want to see, will you be traveling alone or with a group, how long do you have for this trip? Knowing the answers to these questions beforehand will solve many headaches later. There are so many opportunities to enjoy yourself that it would be easy to become overwhelmed. Not only should you be prepared, but make sure everyone going is aware of the plan before leaving for the islands so that everyone can make the most of the trip.
Researching the Islands
- Enjoy discounted rates during the low season. From mid-April to mid-December you'll have the advantage of lower hotel prices, more package deals, and many of the most popular towns will be less crowded.
- Be aware there is uncomfortable, muggy weather is common throughout the islands during this time. It's also hurricane season and many hotels, restaurants, and shops might close down in August and September. Months when the weather will be at its worst. Aruba, Bonaire, and Curacao are exceptions to this.
.This is the perfect time to see more of the islands culture. Whether it's the nightlife, shopping, visiting the beaches and snorkeling. Knowing what each offers is key.
Traveling With a Group
Costs on the islands are relatively low and you will be able to use US currency, but costs can very quickly add up. Lodging, activities, meals, travel between islands can be more than you expect as a solo traveler. Expenses can double or triple depending on the size of your group.
If you're on a budget a cruise may be a better option, for families or singles. This is also a good option for those who don't want to take multiple flights or get stuck on an island with no ferry connections. Keep in mind, you'll see multiple islands but every stop will be crowded. If you prefer a quieter trip, search for the smaller ships. These ships can make stops the larger ones can't. If your group is adventurous, charting a yacht or bare boating (renting a boat yourself, if anyone in the group has significant experience) are other options.
Make sure your hotel is catered towards groups and/or families. Hotels marked as hotspots are generally geared toward singles or any tourists that are looking to party. Book an all-inclusive deal well in advance. This will cover your rooms, meals, and certain activities. Check with the hotel to see which of their amenities, if any, will not be included in the deal.
Duration of the Trip
- Keep travel time in mind. Flights can last ten to fifteen minutes or hours depending on which island you're connecting to. Ferries take even longer. If you choose to take a cruise, you'll be able to see several islands in a week but you may not be able to enjoy as many activities as you'd like.
- A visit one of the larger islands and staying there for the entirety of your trip will cut down on costs and time between islands. Bonaire, being larger than Saba or St. Eustatius, has the most activities and you could easily spend your trip there.
- It's important to check whether or not the island you chose is driver friendly to tourists. Unlike in the US, cars are on the left side of the road and only very experienced cyclists should rent a moped or motorcycles. Aruba is one of the easiest cities to drive in if you aren't used to the road system.

They come to your home, package all of your belongings and load them on to a Ryder rental truck and then take them to a warehouse (according to them) and store them for extended periods of time. They promise to deliver your belongings, however somehow they end up in a warehouse and give you the run around every time you call to inquire about where your stuff is (that is if you are lucky enough to actually get someone to respond to your inquiries after they have all of your worldly possessions).
NOTHING was discussed about my belongings ending up in a storage unit in Atlanta, and certainly was not put into writing. I still am not quite sure WHY they decided to unload our belongings into a storage unit in the first place as I was told that delivery would be within the week of pickup.
They told me that I would be "getting a great rate because they were also moving another family and had room on the truck, therefore the rates would be better". When they arrived early, I had a strange feeling about them (considering they could barely even speak English), but went ahead and let them load the truck after seeing other furniture on it and signing the contract. Now, I am feeling like this was a HUGE mistake and am very worried.
They keep giving us extended delivery dates when we speak with them, which has us very concerned. In other words, we are getting the runaround. I am not sure what this company is up to, but they certainly are appearing more and more to be a bunch of crooks.
If I do not have our belongings in the next 7 days, I am taking legal action on a state as well as Federal level with these clowns. It appears that many others have had difficulties with them as well and I do not intend to pay them double, much less triple the original estimate given in writing to obtain my belongings. In other words, I am fighting mad and I will fight them all the way on this!
I know that I am not alone in this battle, and am willing and ready to file suit against them if I don't get results in the next week.
Whatever you do, please take the time to read some of these complaints before making the same mistake that we did. I wish that we had thought to research this company more. The problem is that they are operating under multiple names/alias and that makes it difficult to truly track down their scam.

As Google uses Android as its OS, Apple uses this Mac as its OS (Operating System). On Thursday Apple called on for a preview in regards with the update of the Mac OS. "Mountain Lion" is also used so as to they would be able to copy many features and apps (applications) from iPhone and iPad to the Mac OS.
This Mountain Lion holds the Game Centre, which is the iPhone apps store where it helps the user to know about the opponents and also on the high score for each game. iCloud, the new internet storage service which is exclusively designed for mobile service and application and this iCloud is integrated with Mountain Lion.
The new updated software will be on sales from this summer, Apple sources said. This preview version which is being released will however help the software developers to judge on the products made and take more advantage on the OS. Mountain Lion users can download the preview version of the required app for free.
The new Msg (Messages) app will replace the iChat and the updated Apple Mac OS. Similar to iPhone, the Notification Centre will be kept to show the changes and regards with it the alerts from email and calendar programme.
California based company, Cupertino said the rate of Lion as $30 and they didn't mention the cost of Mountain Lion. Apple decide to make its OS similar to iOS which is the tablet OS. For better control of MacBook, they have expanded the gestures enabled through the touchpad facilities.
With the static PC developing market, Apple Mac sales are much busy around. Apple maintains a strategy of using big cats to differentiate between there developing Os versions from the updates since 2001. For the first time in 2010, the iPhone sales overtook the sales range of the Mac.

1) the expense is more than advertised. You have limited bandwidth (access) to the internet and if you go over your daily allowance, you have to buy tokens to get more, this added as much as $40 dollars a month to my bill. I have ran out of bandwidth checking my e-mail, as with most homes there are 4 users in my house. In the 10 months I had this service it has cost me over $1300, counting purchasing the equipment ($300).
2) The customer support is less than bad. On 3 seperate occassions I tried to change my mailing address from a P.O. box to my street address. It never took.
3) The service is affected by ANY weather change. I have had dish and direct tv(both sattelite, and I never have had the problems with these services. Heavy rain, heavy and even light cloud cover and most recently the heat can interupt the service. Even on clear days it will drop a server and lose your service .
4) I was told on several occasions that the problem was in my computer, I have switched to ATT and can honestly say, it is not my computer!
5) The customer service is totally lacking, I was given upgrades and discounts to try to 'make it work' to no avail. After trying to make this work by working with Hughesnet, I was informed that I would have to pay another $295 for early cancellation. Are you kidding me?!?!?
I have NEVER been more unhappy with a service like this, and I have told the company that in light of my patience (I have no more with them) I don't believe I should have to pay this fee. Then they have the nerve to tell me if I remove the dish and send it and the modem back at my expense, I will only owe them $16.01!!! Are you kidding me?!?
I would try very hard to dissuade anybody from using this service, dail-up is faster and cheaper.

Analysis: Sound Check
The lilting rhythm of "Jabberwocky" helps the narrator's cause. It makes the poem easy to remember (so that he can tell it to you around that campfire), and it keeps the story moving forward at a regular clip. (Think: "and THEN and THEN and THEN and THEN!")
All the exclamation points in the middle are what give our storyteller his cues to gesticulate wildly at us while relaying the epic battle, and so even though the rhythm stays constant, we have some good changes in volume.
Speaking of volume, there's also all this wonderful onomatopoeia – that is, words that sound like their definition (think "hiss" and "buzz"). Phrases like "snicker-snack!" (18) and "whiffling" (15) and "galumphing" (20) and "chortled" (25) (the last two of which are officially recognized English words now) give us sound cues that help us not only see, but hear the events going on in the poem. After all, it's a nonsense poem – the words were mostly chosen or made up for their sound, not their sense.
Wow – after all this, "Jabberwocky" might be the ultimate "Sound Check" poem.

2006 Ford Mustang V6 Premium 2dr Coupe (4.0L 6cyl 5M)
Only had car for one week and this car put the fun back into driving.Even though it's a V6 it still get up and goes.I love the way it handles and turns heads.
The pony package, retro look and the way it handles
I drive a lot of miles, at least 150/day. I just had the water pump replaced at 166,000 miles and decided it was time to do the rest of the maintenance that I have neglected for the last 5 years. I changed the oil regularly with Mobil 1 and changed the brakes when necessary. Other than that everything has always worked perfectly. I replaced the spark plugs at 140,000 miles just because. The originals still looked good, just needed a gap adjustment.
Looks great Plenty of Performance Really fun going the the S curves at full throttle (Thanks Traction Control) 6 CD/MP3 player
Looks like 2011 fixes them. Dual Exhaust and Cold Air Intake system is all I would add to the 2006.
Nice styling car and fun to drive when it is not heading back to dealership for unending mystery electrical problems. I have had to many problems with this car to ever want another sports car again. Couple that with a dealership that wants to nickel and dime you on warranty work makes for bad Ford business. Not a practical car to own in the winter time in Colorado Springs.
Color, interior styling.
None, it serves its purpose as a sports car.
I was exceptionally impressed with the down and dirty V6. The Chevy Monte Carlo LT and SS Intimidator have nothing on the 4.0 stock!! I bought an 06 5-speed Pony Edition before I went to college. It's about 8 months later and the throttle body is havin issues, killing the car about every 30 miles. The clutch is slipping already, not impressed with that. The Shaker 500 is really nice, don't crank it too loud though. The amp for the stereo runs down the factory battery like no other. It's reliable as heck until the engine starts acting up. Had the system checked, so I know its the throttle body. For a car that is four years old, the clutch and induction should not be having trouble.
Acceleration is great, shaker audio is also good. The styling is..excuse my language.
that throttle body needs work Ford... and put a decent clutch in for pete's sake!!
I purchased the Mustang new with every option you could get on the V6 Premium Cpe including "Pony Package". It's the first American car I've bought in 20 years. Great looking car with a very stiff ride and lots of rattles. At 30k service, it needed an Alternator and a battery. All things considered, I like the car sans the rattles which the dealer has been unable to fix. I have a 20 year old toyota with out any rattles!
Power Seats and shaker CD stacker
Get rid of the RATTLES please!

During the referendum campaign Davis and his Leave campaign colleagues were incredibly reticent when it came to explaining the Brexit process and what comes next. The narrow Leave vote was therefore achieved on the basis of many unknown factors about what Brexit would mean.
With Leave winning, and getting their desired Whitehall Department, they need to start providing answers. In the last days before the Commons rose for the Summer Recess I tabled fifty Written Parliamentary Questions to DREXIT that I think the Government now needs to answer.
Writing and performing my music is an absolute dream come true, but it can be an overwhelming experience at times. Some days I want to jump around the room with excitement one minute, and then I listen back to a performance and decide in a matter of seconds that it's terrible and that maybe I'm just never going to be good enough and I should get my teaching qualification before it's too late.
They have a duty to discuss a wider range of topics. So, if young people are vulnerable; are not sure about their faith, are scared about their religion and what it means; may possibly feel under pressure of social media - Imams need to tackle this.
Allowing passengers to cram a plane's overhead lockers with large imitation AK-47s seems an odd thing to permit in these days of heightened airport security (where every 100ml-plus container of moisturiser is banned and travellers are ordered to remove their shoes at the er, drop of a hat), but there you go
In the last year, I have noticed the indubitable miasma of casual sexism wafting around the friendships I have had since my teens. It's as if I've been wearing beer goggles, being hazily aware of it's existence, but only now sobering up enough for it to be pellucid and recognisable.
I could not stop Alzheimer's from taking my Grandma, but maybe one day I can help stop it taking someone else's Grandma. It might not be this next generation or the generation after, but one day we will find a cure for this heartbreaking disease. It is time for each of us to step up and play our part. It is time to end Alzheimer's.
Now, don't get me wrong i'm not saying that being a mum doesn't require us to use our brain boxes. God I've discovered things I never thought I could do thanks to Motherhood. I'm talking about the parts of my brain I used to have firing on all cylinders pre baby.
In a big family house by the sea, I watch my four-year-old blonde daughter launch herself across the couch to gleefully 'body slam' her doppleganger blonde father. One and the same Mr Happy our sperm donor, Scott is now my husband and Leila's dad.
We must accept that for decades women have asserted their rights both through stripping off and burning bra's to covering themselves up in clothing. This is about us as women deciding how we choose to dress, writing our own scripts and owning our own narratives And the men need to get with the programme and stop using women as pawns for the sake of their own control and power regardless of whether that be through democracy or dictatorship.
Community engagement aimed at vulnerable sections of our communities will always be difficult for sensitive areas such as Prevent in the same way it will always be difficult for other areas such as child sexual exploitation, female genital mutilation, guns and gangs or domestic violence.
The earlier they contact StopSO, the fewer victims are created, and the easier it is for the perpetrator to change their behaviour. Eighty-five per cent of these perpetrators referred themselves, and eight per cent were 'non-offending paedophiles,' who recognise that they have a sexual preference for children but are determined not to act on it, or break the law.
Without defeating austerity, and the mixture of ideology, corruption and spinelessness that allowed PFI to happen, we cannot save the NHS. It is for that reason that Jeremy Corbyn is the only leader who I trust as a doctor to not only defend the NHS but to make it the envy of the world.
People must equally, surely appreciate that this feels unfair for the athletes competing against her. Undeniably, if someone has testosterone levels that are three times the normal range for females and are competing in an athletic event against females, they have an advantage!
If you are celebrating your body and being truly body positive, you do NOT make someone else feel badly about their body. It couldn't be more simple. Telling people with thigh gaps to go eat a burger is not in the Bo Po spirit, so quit being a d*ck!
At my lowest point, I hand her to my husband and say, "There was nothing even wrong with us before. We were fine, just us two. Why did we ever think a baby was a good idea? I don't even want her." I don't even want her. I actually said that.
I'm genuinely filled with dismay by the number of writers flocking to creative writing courses, and ask, what's happened to their defiant confidence and independence? That burning intelligence and passion which produces originality, provokes thought, grips our hearts, points to truth and justice?
This year essentially feels like a very bad hangover after three years of being made to feel special, having your intellect constantly stroked, and being part of one of the most privileged institutions on earth.
Over eight years ago, my family started a new journey: Home Education. It was a journey ahead that felt extremely frightening, as I knew I would be wholly responsibility for my children's learning, and super exciting as I knew that there would be many adventures ahead!
Back in May, Philip Hammond, the then British Foreign Secretary, said that the International Syria Support Group - an alliance of countries trying to end the conflict - had agreed to a UK proposal for the UN World Food Programme to carry out airdrops of supplies if aid continued to be blocked on the ground. Since then the suffering and the sieges have continued and yet no airdrops have taken place. The UK must ensure that the commitment it claimed to have secured is delivered and that aid gets through.
To the outside world, because they do not immediately dash for the door, women trapped by their abusive partners may seem submissive. In fact, they are resisting - they adopt survival techniques and actively find ways of coping. An abused woman fights, relentlessly, to keep herself and her children safe.
While the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have been having a taster training with the YoungMinds Parent Helpline to learn how volunteers on the service offer support, I've drawn together insights from my work as a family therapist on the best ways to approach difficult conversations.
I was taken with this idea in the song The Believers. I realised I was commenting about the people on either side of the news footage. Sure, those poor people forced to flee were certainly 'believers' who had staked their future on the thinnest of chances. But what kind of people were we? It seemed to me, and I asked myself this question at the end of the song, that we could be fearful, myopic and perhaps less than human if we chose to see all this as simply a problem. Wasn't there a good reason for us too to be 'believers?'

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Seventy years ago, the world was convinced that Louis Zamperini was dead. There had been no word of the track star and former Olympian since his World War II bomber crashed into the Pacific Ocean. The military told his parents he was dead, and an annual collegiate track competition named one of its races in his memory.
But Zamperini was alive, and very much so. After surviving 47 days in a life raft in shark-infested waters and enduring two years as a Japanese prisoner of war, Zamperini was liberated in time to attend the second running of the invitational mile that had been named in his memory.
Zamperini, a war hero, Olympian and the subject of a celebrated book and upcoming movie on his harrowing story of survival against all odds, died after a long battle with pneumonia, his family said Thursday in a statement. He was 97.
Laura Hillenbrand, the author of the best-selling book "Unbroken: A World War II Story of Survival, Resilience, and Redemption," said that over countless hours of interviews Zamperini became a surrogate grandfather and beloved friend who helped her cope with her own debilitating illness, chronic fatigue syndrome.
"Louie greeted every challenge of his long journey with singular resilience, determination and ingenuity, with a ferocious will to survive and prevail, and with hope that knew no master," said Hillenbrand.
Born on Jan. 26, 1917, Zamperini's larger-than-life story began with a blue-collar upbringing in Olean, a city in western New York. A track star at the University of Southern California, Zamperini competed in the 5,000-meter run at the 1936 Berlin Olympics. He finished eighth but caught attention by running the final lap in 56 seconds — and grabbed headlines by stealing a Nazi flag.
He was a bombardier on a U.S. Army Air Forces bomber that crashed in the Pacific Ocean during a reconnaissance mission. He and one of the other surviving crew members drifted for 47 days on a raft in shark-infested waters, drinking rain water and eating fish and birds they caught with their bare hands, before being captured by Japanese forces. A third man died before they reached land.
Zamperini would spend more than two years as a prisoner of war being shuttled among Japanese prison camps, where he survived beatings, starvation, debilitating illnesses and psychological torture designed to break him down and make an example of the famous Olympian-turned-war hero.
When he was liberated at the end of the war, he was a changed man and wrestled with rage, depression and alcoholism that almost cost him his marriage.
Several years after his return, Zamperini attended a Billy Graham revival in Los Angeles and embraced Christianity — a faith that would sustain him for the rest of his life.
Years later, Zamperini wrote a letter of forgiveness to one of his most horrific tormentors, a guard the other prisoners nicknamed "The Bird."

No. 1 Florida sweeps LSU
Published: Monday, March 21, 2011 at 10:00 a.m.

BATON ROUGE — After taking an early three-run lead, No. 5 LSU surrendered five runs to No. 1 Florida in the fourth inning, and the Gator pitching staff stymied the Tiger bats down the stretch to post a 7-3 victory in Game 3 Sunday at Alex Box Stadium.
Florida improved to 18-2 and 3-0 in Southeastern Conference play, while the Tigers fell to 16-4 (0-3 SEC) with the loss.
LSU set new attendance records this weekend in Alex Box Stadium with a paid attendance of 34,562 and an actual attendance of 28,215 for the three-game series.
Florida right-hander Austin Maddox (1-0), who started the game at designated hitter, hurled the final 4.1 innings in relief to earn his first victory of the season. The sophomore allowed only two hits and struck out three.
LSU's Ben Alsup (3-2) was charged with the loss after giving up five earned runs off 11 hits in four innings.
Catcher Ty Ross and second baseman JaCoby Jones each batted 2-for-4 with a double to lead the Tigers at the plate. Jones also contributed an RBI along with left fielder Trey Watkins.

A Guide to Virtual Services
The point of virtual web services is to present different document trees to users requesting pages from the same machine using different domain names. Users receive the main index page and path names associated with a particular domain name, without any knowledge of the other domains which exist on the same machine.
There are actually two solutions to this problem. The newcomer to the scene uses a fairly elegant method where the client, in its request, also specifies the exact target it was looking for. However, this works only for web services, and only with quite recently released clients from Microsoft and Netscape. If you want to support everybody without relying on the client to make your services work, you will need another solution.
The problem is fairly simple once you understand it. You need a modified HTTP daemon listening to requests coming in to a specific IP address, rather than all those directed to the current machine. Then a server is started for each virtual client, with options specifying different configuration files, document source trees, and so on.
Most web servers now support the requirements for virtual services, but some do not. You will need at least version 1.5 if you use the NCSA server. I use the Apache server, version 1.1.1. Other servers designed as "drop-in" replacements for the NCSA daemon should have this capability, but you should check your server documentation for details on configuring this feature.
To date, almost every server has a different configuration. This article covers the Apache daemon only because it is what the author uses, not because the author considers the server to be more or less capable than any other.
Once you have ping working on the two domain names, you can begin to configure your virtual web services. The most important thing is to select an intelligent document tree layout. If you only have a few clients, you might have a single source root with different subdirectories, one per client. Their tree would then be rooted at their respective subdirectory. If you have more clients, you may need a more complex layout. It is important to decide this now because changing it later can become quite messy.
In your server configuration file, you need to set up services for each domain. This is easily done in Apache by enclosing configuration statements within a <VirtualHost> container. For example, the following configuration for 10.1.1.6 (the IP address we obtained for www.tryme.com) would be changed from:
ServerName www.tryme.com ServerAdmin firstname.lastname@example.com DocumentRoot /usr/web/tryme/docs TransferLog /usr/web/tryme/access.log ErrorLog /usr/web/tryme/errors.log
<VirtualHost 10.1.1.6> ServerName www.tryme.com ServerAdmin email@example.com DocumentRoot /usr/web/tryme/docs TransferLog /usr/web/tryme/access.log ErrorLog /usr/web/tryme/errors.log </VirtualHost>This will instruct Apache (and several other similar daemons) to accept requests with those configuration parameters only for those requests directed to 10.1.1.6, in this case www.tryme.com.
Note that this automatically disables server-hosting, and any other targets must be set up as well, or they will not be accessible. Normally, if a machine had several IP addresses, requests directed at any address would be serviced. Including a <VirtualHost> specification prevents this activity. Also note that virtual hosting in Apache can include an optional port number (e.g., <VirtualHost 10.1.1.6:8080>) to provide services for a specific port.
Once you have this configured, start or restart the web daemon, and you should be configured for virtual web services! Next month we examine virtual e-mail and FTP services, and new techniques that provide similar functionality.

With all the industry talk about the benefits of Linux on Power and all the performance advantages offered by its open architecture, you may be considering a move in that direction. If you are thinking about analytics, big data and cloud computing, you would be right to evaluate Power. The idea of using commodity x86 hardware and replacing it every three years is an outdated cost model. It doesn't consider the total cost of ownership, and it doesn't consider the advantage of real processing power, high-availability and multithreading like a demon.
This ebook takes a look at some of the practical applications of the Linux on Power platform and ways you might bring all the performance power of this open architecture to bear for your organization. There are no smoke and mirrors here—just hard, cold, empirical evidence provided by independent sources. I also consider some innovative ways Linux on Power will be used in the future.Get the Guide

It appears they were the source of all my problems and the source of all the false allegations about me. I am now aware that these people THOUGHT that my father bought my home years ago and therefore believed that my home should be included in the estate! However, I do have documents to prove that this is totally false and documents to prove I made the down payment on my home, I made the mortgage payments for over 15 years, and I owed over $75,000.00 on my home at my father's death! These transactions were done by Robert Townes who was my brother's and the relative that illegally acquired property belonging to my father's estate attorney!
It appears that my and my brother's ex-families thought that they should get all my parents assets and property and all the attorneys involved helped them do so. I am aware of large amounts of money and property that my parents gave my brothers sons over the years. It appears that my father's suffering and this fiasco l and my children went thru for over 3 years was caused by GREED of others involved that were not heirs in the estate, were not working for me, my children, or my parents, knew nothing about me, my affairs, my parent's affairs, or the details of their assets.
These people also helped my ex-husband try and take custody of my children because of their GREED for my parent's assets that did not belong to them. Most of the dishonest, greedy attorneys involved help them accomplish all this because of their GREED for the assets my parents worked for all their lives. Dean Stein would not inform the judge of all this illegal, if not criminal activities, in spite of the numerous documents I gave him to prove my claims. He also did not inform me of hearings concerning my father's estate or my uncle's estate which I was legal executrix of. This allowed a relative to illegally acquire and sell property belonging to my father's estate.
Dean Stein also did not pay me over $100,000.00 that belonged to me from my father's estate which I can prove by the accounting. Nor would he advise the judge of all the illegal actions, conflicts of interest, theft of property, theft of funds, dishonesty of attorneys, and other illegal actions of most involved. He could give no valid reason for this. This was against my father's will and state law.
whatever you do, do NOT let attorneys or probate court get involved in your estate. My father took great pains in assuring his estate would not be in his will and power of attorney. None of this should have happened according to his Will and State Law. However, attorneys nor probate court honor a person's will or the laws!. Your Will is meaningless no matter what you do! The dishonest, corrupt, greedy attorneys and others will steal everything you worked your entire life for and they will ruin your heirs lives in the progress. I have yet to find an honest attorney with a ounce of integrity in Alabama to help me.

Dean Stein....you KNOW the truth

SUBMITTED: Saturday, July 09, 2011POSTED: Saturday, July 09, 2011
My parents were wonderful caring, extremely generous people who would give anyone anything they had, and often did! They taught me that it is wrong to lie, steal, talk bad or judge others,to try to see the good in others, and to always stand up for what I believed to be right and just. I have tried to also teach those values to my children. I highly resent the many accusations and allegations made of me which I was totally unaware of and prevented from proving were not true.
I will honor my parents and the values they taught me till the day I die even though no one else would.

Clarification by Dean Stein
AUTHOR: Dean Stein - (United States of America)
SUBMITTED: Sunday, March 06, 2011POSTED: Sunday, March 06, 2011
The property was appraised by a licensed appraiser selected by mutual agreement of the brother and sister, then divided between them, and they then entered into a "consent settlement", meaning they agreed to the final distribution of all property in this estate. It even was necessary for her to personally signed off on all documents necessary to transfer the property and conclude the agreement and close the estate administration. Both the poster of this information, and her brother, were represented by attorneys of their own choosing at all stages of the matter, including at the final settlement. In the end, rather obviously, neither party was completely satisfied. However, I did my professional best to see that a "fair" and equitable agreement was the result, and in that regard, even if it was not recognized by the parties, I know I did my duty to each of them and the Court in an impartial manner.
This post troubles me for two main reasons. First, by involving my name in matters that I simply had nothing to do with, since they occurred over a period of years, and I was only involved in my limited role for a few weeks. Second, by not recognizing the absolute benefit that I brought to this matter, by diligently working to get this resolved for both parties, as expeditiously as possible, saving them untold additional costs had "their" battle gone on any longer. I genuinely liked both the sister and the brother, and it troubles me that either one of them may not believe that they achieved a good settlement of their dispute. Coming from a family of five myself, It always saddens me when family members, particularly siblings, fight over what amounts to a division of money, in the wake of their parents death, and especially if they harbor hard feelings thereafter.
In this particular "report" of "Gardendale Alabama", she makes a serious allegation that I did not pay her some substantial funds. Dignifying this with a response has been a difficult decision, but this statement of hers, together with all the other claims launched at the Court, the attorneys, the Alabama Bar and nearly everyone else, is unfounded. As Special Master, I never had control of any estate funds. To my knowledge, neither did her numerous attorneys. Nor did the Court have any control over the estate's funds. Instead, she and she alone, as Executrix, controlled all the funds. Therefore, nothing could have been withheld from her. In the end, she received 50% of her father's estate, and her brother received 50% of her father's estate, and she should not post any more of these "reports", as all they do is to serve to undeservingly malign these various persons.
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?
