How to Change Apache's www root folder and then restart

I just learned how to change the location of Apache's www root folder and then restart apache...

1. Edit /etc/apache2/sites-available/default
2. Change the "DocumentRoot" value from "/var/www' to the new root folder (i.e. "/var/www/joomla15")
3. Save the changes.
4. Restart Apache from the Ubuntu command line...
   > sudo /usr/sbin/apache2ctl -k graceful

New exhaust for my Yamaha

I have 1983 Yamaha Midnight Virago (XV920) that I found on the Internet in 2000. It was a basket case - in boxes - that I got for free. The previous owner was going through a divorce and his wife told him to get rid of it before she did.

It sat in my garage for about a year. Eventually I rebuilt the top half and got it running. It had 21k miles on it when I got it. Now it has 34k.

Well, the exhaust collector finally rotted out and now it's time for a new exhaust. I could only find a couple manufacturers that create an exhaust for it and they're pretty ugly. I guess I'll build my own. I took a welding class this past fall, so I might as well put what I learned to good use.

Also, since the seat covering is shot, I picked up some new material to recover it. I'll post my progress with pictures for those interested.
