Friendly error page to replace WSOD This should be the easiest thing to do, but for some reason I just can't get it done.  I'm trying to get a friendly static error page to replace nasty 500 scenarios. For now I'm just trying to replicate a 500 situation on my local machine (Drupal 7 running on MAMP) by throwing in some crap characters on the top of my template.php in my theme, which does trigger a 500 situation, but for some reason the ErrorDocument directive in my .htaccess or Apache config file has no effect.  What I'm doing is quite simply this:  ErrorDocument 500 /500.html   And I have the simplest ever static html-page in the root of my site with the name of 500.html.  Still, when I intentionally break template.php, I get the dreaded White Screen Of Death instead of my nice friendly error page.  What am I doing wrong here? I've done this a billion times in non-Drupal setups but just can't get my head around this one. Calling a function of a module by using its name (a string) What is the best way to go about calling a function given a string with the function's name in a Python program.  For example, let's say that I have a module foo, and I have a string whose content is "bar". What is the best way to call foo.bar()?  I need to get the return value of the function, which is why I don't just use eval. I figured out how to do it by using eval to define a temp function that returns the result of that function call, but I'm hoping that there is a more elegant way to do this. I installed Ubuntu (twice actually) onto the same drive. I wanted to 'try again' since one of them didn't install correctly and the other installed differently, but it worked.   I was getting frustrated with the GRUB menu because it was really sloppy (There were two Windows options - one with the Windows bootloader to go into Ubuntu, and two different versions of Ubuntu from the first install for some reason and memtest, etc.).  In my attempts at getting rid Ubuntu to do a fresh installation, I went ahead and deleted the partitions that weren't swap or main via Windows 7. As I said, I am a noob.  Now, even though I though I completely got rid of Ubuntu, including the GRUB menu, when I boot my PC I am brought directly to GRUB Rescue. And from what I've found from other forums, GRUB rescue isn't even completely functional for me (it doesn't recognize any commands that it should support besides ls. It also returns unknown filesystem for any partition I try to view or boot.)  Is there any way that I can boot straight into Windows? I fear I may have gone about deleting those partitions in the wrong way. If so, what are my options? I've just created an account to submit an application to the Ubuntu Software Centre and the agreement says: "You are responsible for determining applicable taxes in connection with distributing your App, and you shall pay applicable taxes to the applicable tax authorities.".  Does this mean that Canonical doesn't collect tax (especially VAT in the EU) and it's my responsibility to do it?   Also, am I wrong to assume that the price listed by the USC is the same for both people who pay taxes and for those who don't need to pay them? It is well known from Noether's Theorem how from continuous symmetries in the Lagrangian one gets a conserved charge which corresponds to linear momentum, angular momentum for translational and rotational symmetries and others.  Is there any elementary argument for why linear or angular momentum specifically (and not other conserved quantities) are conserved which does not require knowledge of Lagrangians? By elementary I mean, "if this is not so, then this unreasonable thing occurs".   Of course, we can say "if we want our laws to be the same at a different point in space then linear conservation must be conserved", but can we derive mathematically the expression for the conserved quantity without using the Lagrangian?  I want to explain to a friend why they are conserved but he doesn't have the background to understand the Lagrangian formalism. Tried to install both Windows and Ubuntu, now neither will boot Hardware:  I've got an SSD (c),an internal HDD (d), an external HDD (e) and a USB flash drive (f).   How this all went down:   I downloaded Ubuntu and used a program to install it on my (F) drive. I reset my computer, ran the (F) drive for boot, and installed Ubuntu. I reset my computer, and it forcibly automatically booted into Windows 10 instead of Ubuntu. I went into Windows 10, and used a program called Easy BCD, by NeoSmart. I followed their guide, but after step 6, it wasn't the same for me. Their guide said that upon rebooting, I should see a grub screen that lets me choose between Windows/Linux and a few other options, however my computer would only boot into Windows 10.  I decided to follow the rest of the guide regardless, however by the end it would let me boot 'windows' or 'linux', but the linux option would always break. It went to a screen with lots of commands, that I thought -may- be a barebones Linux or something, but it definitely wasn't Ubuntu.  I decided to reinstall Ubuntu using the USB flash drive. Upon resetting, no matter what hard drive or format I select for booting (besides the F drive), it says An operating system wasn't found. Try disconnecting any drives that don't contain an operating system. I can boot the F drive and run Ubuntu, but it's a one time version that doesn't save any of my data. When I went into the installation, it still says that I already have Ubuntu installed on the 4TB HDD and that I have Windows 10 installed on the SSD, however I cannot seem to boot into either of them.   TLDR: Windows 10/Ubuntu are both installed, Windows on the internal SSD and Ubuntu on the external HDD. Ubuntu's installation program on the (F) drive recognizes them, however, when I try to boot anything it says An operating system wasn't found.   When I press F11 and force it to boot from the SSD it says:  error: no such device: 83b6c64d-9a2c0467b-a02c-6374ee6ac3dc.  error: unknown filesystem. Entering rescue mode. . .  grub rescue&gt; _   and it will allow me to type some commands. Can a jar that has had botulinum food in it be cleaned If a home canned jar has botulinum in it can the jar be cleaned and saved? If so what is the correct way to clean the jar? I'm struggling to find the limit at infinity of : $$\lim \limits_{n\rightarrow\infty}\sin^2(\pi\sqrt{n^2 + n}), n\in\Bbb N$$ I know it is $1$ but I don't understand why this is wrong :  $\sin^2(\pi\sqrt{n^2 + n}) = \sin^2(\pi*n\sqrt{1 + \frac{1}{n}})$.  So $\lim \limits_{n\rightarrow\infty}\sin^2(\pi\sqrt{n^2 + n}) = \lim \limits_{n\rightarrow\infty}\sin^2(\pi*n\sqrt{1 + \frac{1}{n}}) =  \lim \limits_{n\rightarrow\infty} \sin^2(\pi*n) = 0$.  Thanks. Equivalent statement of AC or not? Here's a corollary of AC stating that: if there exists an onto mapping $f:A\to B$, then there exists a 1-1 mapping $g:B\to A$. What I'm confused about is that whether or not  AC can be derived from this proposition, in return? I have tried but haven't found a proof. Any help would be appreciated. Can a single vertex be rotated? In the duplication options for the dupli verts there is a option for Rotation. Witch brings me to my question, is there anyway to rotate a vertex? Vertex's have normals, is there any way to control which way the normal of a single unconnected vertex points?

Java: Avoid inserting duplicate in arraylist Intersection of Adiabatic curves Can paths of two adiabatic process intersect on a plot? This question is for both reversible and irreversible processes. There are some , but they mostly address only for reversible adiabatic processes. Also, I want a physical interpretation of the processes that is, if they don't intersect then why don't and what it would be like, physically for a system. I have multiple cameras in a scene. What I want to do is to change which one is active. This way I can view the scene from different angles. How would I do this? Need to develop a tapered spacer for under a car lift on an angled concrete slab I need to fabricate/develop an angled spacer.  13 inch wide by 10 inch long, by 3/4 inch to 1 3/8 inch thick. This spacer is needed to go under two of the posts of a hobbyist car lift in my garage. The garage floor is angled by the door where two of the four corner posts will go. These two rear posts need to be on a flat surface and at the same level as the two front posts.  Each post pad will need to handle approximately 2000 pounds. I was thinking of building a 4-sided mold where the column pads would be on the angled concrete and pouring some type of epoxy, resin, or cement into the mold. Which the metal plate from car lift posts would sit on. enter image description here Is there a way to show that $\sqrt{p_{n}} < n$? Is there a way to show that $\sqrt{p_{n}} &lt; n$?  In , I show that $f_{2}(x)=\frac{x}{ln(x)} - \sqrt{x}$ is ascending, for $\forall x\geq e^{2}$. As a result, $\forall n \geq 3$ $$\frac{p_{n}}{ln(p_{n})} - \sqrt{p_{n}}\leq \frac{p_{n+1}}{ln(p_{n+1})} - \sqrt{p_{n+1}}$$ Also (and as a result), $\forall n \geq 3$ $$ \frac{p_{n}}{ln(p_{n})} - \sqrt{p_{n}} &gt; 0$$ Or $$ \frac{\pi (p_{n})}{p_{n}/ln(p_{n})} &lt; \frac{\pi (p_{n})}{\sqrt{p_{n}}}$$  According to  $$\displaystyle\smash{\lim_{n \to \infty }}\frac{\pi (p_{n})}{p_{n}/ln(p_{n})}=1$$ Or, $\forall \varepsilon &gt;0$, $\exists N(\varepsilon )$: $\forall n&gt;N(\varepsilon )$ $$1- \varepsilon &lt; \frac{\pi (p_{n})}{p_{n}/ln(p_{n})} &lt; 1+ \varepsilon$$ Or $$1- \varepsilon &lt; \frac{\pi (p_{n})}{p_{n}/ln(p_{n})} &lt; \frac{\pi (p_{n})}{\sqrt{p_{n}}}$$ As a result $\forall \varepsilon &gt;0$, $\exists N(\varepsilon )$: $\forall n&gt;N(\varepsilon )$ $$(1 - \varepsilon ) \cdot  \sqrt{p_{n}} &lt; \pi (p_{n}) = n$$  But this is not enough.  Interestingly,  is true iff function $f_{4}(x)=\pi (x) - \sqrt{x}$ is strictly ascending ($x &lt; y \Rightarrow f(x) &lt; f(y)$) for prime arguments.  If $f_{4}(p_{n}) &lt; f_{4}(p_{n+1})$ then $$\pi (p_{n}) - \sqrt{p_{n}} &lt; \pi (p_{n+1}) - \sqrt{p_{n+1}}$$ Or $$\sqrt{p_{n+1}} - \sqrt{p_{n}} &lt; \pi (p_{n+1}) - \pi (p_{n}) =1$$  And vice-versa, if $$\sqrt{p_{n+1}} - \sqrt{p_{n}} &lt; 1$$ Then $$-\sqrt{p_{n}} &lt; -\sqrt{p_{n+1}} + 1$$ Or $$\pi (p_{n})-\sqrt{p_{n}} &lt; \pi (p_{n}) + 1 -\sqrt{p_{n+1}} = \pi (p_{n+1}) -\sqrt{p_{n+1}}$$  So, if Andrica's conjecture is true then $\forall n \geq 3$ $$\pi (p_{n})-\sqrt{p_{n}} &gt; 0$$ Or $$\sqrt{p_{n}} &lt; \pi (p_{n})= n$$ Does C1 code coverage analysis exist for Ruby? I'm currently using  to get C0 code coverage analysis for a rails project that I'm working on.  However, those results are practically meaningless- I have 100% coverage according to rcov (as it only covers C0 analysis) and I've barely written half the test cases for the functionality that exists thus far.  I'm used to the useful results from the code coverage in Visual Studio 2008 Team, which has C1 coverage.  Are there any tools that provide similar coverage for ruby?
