Home → News → Indian Tigers to field team in World Cup
www.aflinternational.com
Dishant Solanki from the Indian Tigers
The Indian Tigers are currently recruiting players for the 2020 Australian Football World Cup in Melbourne. Dishant Solanki comes from a small town called Bharuch in Gujarat, India. He is currently studying a Masters of Business in Sports Management at Deakin University. He is the man responsible for putting the team together and we spoke to him about his plans.
"My connection with sports goes back to the start of 2000. I started speed skating and represented at state level competitions. I switched to badminton and played for a few years and have been playing soccer for the past 11 years. I have represented university at national level tournaments and was also honoured to captain my university department team.
"I came to Australia and was always intrigued about Australian Football. The game is totally exciting and keeps you on toes all the time. When I heard about the absence of an Indian footy team, given the fact that the Indian community is so large, I was a bit surprised. So I met with AFI and we spoke about getting an Indian team in the World Cup.
"We will put our best efforts in representing India at the World Cup. I hope to get support from the Indian community as well as other communities to stay motivated and do our best in the competition."
The Tigers are currently recruiting players and supporters. If you would like to be involved, please contact AFI via info@aflinternational.com

Q: Bootstrap buttons will not move to the right I have tried using float-right on my buttons as per the Boostrap docs  but cannot get 3 of 4 buttons to move over to the right hand side of their containing div. What am I doing wrong?
JSfiddle link
Note that I want the Submit the form button to stay where it is.
The code for those who cannot access the jsfiddle:

            div above buttons

                <button type="submit" class="btn btn-success mr-1">Submit the form</button>
                <button type="button" id="SaveDraft" class="btn btn-outline-primary mr-1 float-right">Save Draft</button>
                <button type="button" id="RestoreDraft" class="btn btn-outline-warning mr-1 float-right" >Restore Draft</button>
                <button type="button" id="DeleteDraft" class="btn btn-outline-danger mr-1 float-right">Delete All Drafts</button>

I have also tried changing btn-toolbar to btn-group.

A: you problem because  .btn-toolba use display: flex; you can modify that behavior and targeting only this div by adding class and change the display value as below:

.row {
  background: #f8f9fa;
  margin-top: 20px;
}

.col-lg-12 {
  border: solid 1px #6c757d;
  padding: 10px;
}
 .test.btn-toolbar{
  display: block !important;
}

  <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
  <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.1.3/css/bootstrap.min.css">

            div above buttons

                <button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary mr-1">Submit the form</button>
                <button type="button" id="SaveDraft" class="btn   mr-1 float-right">Save Draft</button>
                <button type="button" id="RestoreDraft" class="btn btn-outline-warning mr-1 float-right" >Restore Draft</button>
                <button type="button" id="DeleteDraft" class="btn btn-outline-danger mr-1 float-right">Delete All Drafts</button>

A: You can do something like this:

        div above buttons

            <button type="submit" class="btn btn-success mr-1">Submit the form</button>

            <button type="button" id="SaveDraft" class="btn btn-outline-primary mr-1 ">Save Draft</button>
            <button type="button" id="RestoreDraft" class="btn btn-outline-warning mr-1" >Restore Draft</button>
            <button type="button" id="DeleteDraft" class="btn btn-outline-danger mr-1 ">Delete All Drafts</button>

Attention everyone!! Pikos are here! And this taupe Piko dress is simple yet totally sassy! We love all the different accessories that you can pair with this beauty! Honestly with a dress like this you really can't go wrong!
True to size fit! Neutral color so it's very easy to accessorize. Very comfortable material.


From day one, the Omni Moderate and Omni Ultimate have been defined by the protection they provide. Their medial posts and midfoot shanks successfully buttress the floppiest of feet, and their firm midsole/outersole effectively insulates the foot from the pavement. As successful as the Omni 4s were, our wear-testers were surprised to find the Omni 5s to be greatly improved. Advancements include the addition of a large crash pad under the lateral heel, a full-length foam pad under the sockliner, more functional flex grooving, thinner overlays, bunion screens, and a midfoot support strap. Surprisingly, these upgrades are not accompanied by a (justifiable) price increase. Also unchanged is the traditional Saucony fit: slightly wide in the toe and low in the arch.

Alexa Van Unveils Dark Pop Offering 'Space'
LA-based songstress Alexa Van has released the dark-pop offering 'Space'. Layered with haunting harmonies, the track has the vibe of artists such as Billy Eilish and Lorde. 'Space' reflects the feeling of being trapped and gasping for air through its soundscape and lyrics, Alexa shares more on why she wanted to convey this theme: "Being trapped by society, needing to expand and embrace the divine feminine, but being boxed in by expectations. Space is about begging for freedom, but being unable to find your truth within the layers of negative voices in your head and all around you."
Alexa Van grew up in Seattle but is now based in LA, where she moved to pursue her dream of becoming a musician. Alexa is open about darker times in her life where she struggled with drug addiction while living in Portland, OR. Moving to LA to escape her past and get sober, Alexa reconnected with her love for music and allows her past to inform her creative process. Listen to 'Space' here:

Institutional Strengthening Missions
Cameroon - Institutional Strengthening Mission
Upon the request of the Ministry of Territorial Administration (MINAT), Government of Cameroon, UN-SPIDER carried out a week-long Institutional Strengthening Mission (ISM) to Yaoundé from 15 to 19 July. The mission aimed to strengthen the capacities of the Department of Civil Protection (DPC) of Cameroon in using space-based information in all phases of the disaster management cycle. It was the third UN-SPIDER mission to Cameroon after a Technical Advisory Mission (TAM) in 2011 and an Institutional Strengthening Mission (ISM) in 2012, the latter including a training course on "Remote Sensing for Disaster Management".
Mon, Jul 15 - Fri, Jul 19 2019
Ministry of Territorial Administration (MINAT) and its Department of Civil Protection (DPC).
UN-SPIDER staff and one expert from the UN-SPIDER Regional Support Office in Nigeria at the National Space Research and Development Agency (NASDRA).
Mission Profile
During the mission, UN-SPIDER experts and an expert from its Nigeria Regional Support Office (RSO) at the National Space and Research Development Agency (NASRDA) held meetings with the Prime Minister of Cameroon, the Minister of Territorial Administration, the Director of the Department of Civil Protection as well as with DPC staff. The discussions addressed ways to institutionalize the use of space data in disaster risk reduction, preparedness, response and recovery efforts, and to ensure data sharing and coordination among relevant stakeholders in the country, especially in emergency response efforts. The mission team also had the opportunity to visit a recently established emergency management facility.
A two-day long workshop on "Emergency Operations Centres", organized by DPC and UN-SPIDER as part of the mission, brought together a total of 52 participants from 36 institutions including ministries, government agencies, United Nations agencies, humanitarian organizations and the private sector.
During the workshop, DCP and other national organizations delivered presentations on the use of space-based information in case of disasters in Cameroon. UN-SPIDER provided general introductions on the use of remotely-sensed data in disaster management, which included an overview of data management practices, Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and their use for mapping disaster-relevant information, and the use of such maps in disaster response. Participants were also introduced to the International Charter "Space and Major Disasters" and presented examples of maps created for addressing floods in Nigeria in 2018. Finally, the mission team demonstrated the navigation through a number of websites and portals, including the UN-SPIDER Knowledge Portal, that contain relevant analysis-ready data as well as step-by-step procedures for creating information products based on raw data. Around 50 of these websites and portals, all of which would host information relevant for disaster management efforts in the country, had been curated into a dedicated booklet that was presented to and shared with participants.
At the heart of the workshop was a simulation of an Emergency Operations Centre (EOC) the use of a decision support system to coordinate the provision of humanitarian assistance, the restoration of lifelines and the coordination of efforts to deal with cascading impacts of a wide range of disasters across the country. During the simulation, participants were introduced to how floods maps created using Sentinel-1 radar imagery and space-based information products would support emergency response efforts by locating, for instance, affected communities and infrastructure.
Mission Outcome
In discussions with stakeholders, UN-SPIDER highlighted the relevance of institutionalizing the use of space data in disaster risk reduction, preparedness, response and recovery efforts. Through the exercise, the mission team raised awareness among government agencies of the usefulness of space-based information and the relevance of strengthening local capacities to make use of the growing amount of data and information products made available by the space community and presented by UN-SPIDER. The exercise also allowed to demonstrate the use of emergency operation centres equipped with decision support systems, that is, digital platforms indicating available resources among organizations and needs resulting from the disaster. These centres would bring together official institutional liaisons that are in charge of conducting the inter-institutional coordination regarding the provision of humanitarian assistance, the restoration of lifelines and the management of other cascading events in case of disasters. The exercise underlined the need to ensure data sharing and coordination among relevant stakeholders in the country, especially in emergency response efforts.

Q: Detect 100% CPU load by a referenced library I have a ASP.NET (C#) website that uses a third party DLL to process the data that the users POST via a web form. The call is pretty straightforward:
string result = ThirdPartyLib.ProcessData(myString);

Once in a blue moon this library hangs and (according to my hosting provider logs) consumes 100% of CPU. The website is hosted on a shared hosting, so I have no access to the IIS or event logs. When this happens, my website is automatically stopped by the hosting provider performance monitor, and I have manually switch it back on.
Now, I know that the right thing to to is investigate the problem and fix (or replace) the DLL. But as it's third-party software, I am unuable to fix it, and their support is not helpful at all. Moreover, I can't reproduce the problem. Replacing the library is a pain too.
Is there a way in C# to detect when this DLL starts consuming 100%CPU and kill the process automatically from my ASP.NET code?

A: You cannot "detect" if the current process is hanging because as the caller of a method (third party or not) you're simply not in control until it returns.
What you can do is move the call to the third party library into a separate executable and have it output its result via the standard output (you can simply use Console.WriteLine(string) for this).
Once you've done that, you can start a separate Process that runs this executable, read the result via StandardOutput and use WaitForExit(int) to wait a certain amount of time (maybe a few seconds) for the process to finish. The return value of WaitForExit() tells you if the process actually exited. In case it didn't, you can Kill() it and move on without IIS worker process hanging as a whole.
