Irish involvement in the Google Lunar X Prize
Posted on 27 April 2012 by Maria Delaney
The United States beat Russia to the moon in a race that was estimated to have cost NASA $20 billion dollars. A global race is once again taking place except this time it's a more private affair. It is almost 5 years since the Google Lunar X Prize was announced and 26 privately funded teams are competing to claim the $20 million prize. The pressure is on! If a government reaches the moon first, a whopping $5 million is slashed off the top prize. The prize aims to kickstart a commercial lunar exploration sector. This concept has worked before when SpaceShipOne won the Ansari X Prize in 2004 and is now the plane of choice for Richard Branson's Virgin Galactic. This morning, I caught up with an Irish member of the international team based in the Netherlands, White Label Space, to find out about the prize and his team's progress.
Simon O'Reilly, a mechanical engineering graduate of Trinity College Dublin, is a recent member of the White Label Space team. In a volunteer capacity he is the PR manager and is also involved in running some of the necessary mission simulations. In order to get the prize O'Reilly explained that the team must "get to the moon, drive 500 metres while beaming high-definition footage back to earth". An added complication is that "carrying out the mission itself costs about $47 million". I was amazed to discover that $25 million of the total sum would be spent just on fuel to propel the rocket to the moon. Taking into account the cost of the project, the prize doesn't seem as large. The purpose of having a relatively small prize is "to try to challenge people to make it cheaper and cheaper all the time".
Having a keen interest in astronautics, theoretical physics and astronomy, O'Reilly was excited when he heard about the Google Lunar X Prize. He had the initiative to contact a number of the teams, offered his support and was delighted to be included in the White Label Space core team. He has to juggle his volunteer work with the project and his Masters in Aerospace Vehicle Design. This extra work should pay off when their rover is ambling around the moon's craters.
White Label Space have an interesting funding proposal. Rather than seeking out investment like most of the other teams, they have an advertising strategy. "White label is a branding term," O'Reilly explains. They intend to sell advertising and challenge companies to be the first to advertise on rockets, ramps and rovers. The HD camera is an example of how this could work "by providing a camera for the mission as well as associated sponsorship". A camera manufacturer would be an ideal partner in this case. The team are hopeful that associated brands will become "a new step in the space race, Space 2.0".
With so many teams working on the prize, short timelines are essential. White Label Space already have a working rover prototype as well as a smaller, lighter rover weighing just 10kg in development (see video below). This work is being led by Professor Kazuya Yoshida in Tohoku University in Japan. The next phase of the project includes testing the landing stage motor in June. This is the hardest part of the entire mission as it needs to land perfectly on the moon to allow the rover to successfully exit the craft.
A mission to the moon is multi-faceted and includes building, designing and testing rockets, rovers, cameras, antennae, communication devices and the list goes on. If you aim to complete all of the bonus categories for an extra few million dollars, additional equipment must be included. Surviving the extreme temperatures of a lunar night is one of these challenges. Lunar nights are almost as cold as liquid oxygen. Rovers are encouraged to stop off for some sight-seeing on their journey. A visit to an Apollo site lands them a bonus prize. The deadline for the race is the end of 2015 and it would be great to see a team with Irish involvement beaming footage from the moon. Science Calling wishes O'Reilly and White Label Space the best of luck!

The Longhorns season ended early when Oklahoma got the bid to play in the Big 12 championship game against Missouri. But this year is different. Texas are many people's favorites to win the Big 12 and challenge Florida for a BCS championship. Even with the loss of Brian Okrapo on the D-Line, eager Sergio Kindle( a defensive end/ linebacker) who needs to impress NFL scouts will replace him Meanwhile, the offense is still pretty well packed. Colt McCoy leads the 8 returning starters against three tough games that may decide the Big 12: Missouri, Oklahoma and Oklahoma State. And this time, the Longhorns will not fall short.


Congratulations to all the fashionistas that made it possible to look cute during the absolute frozen NYFW last week. Here are some of my favorite shots taken by Tommy Ton, Phil Oh and YoungJun Koo. Enjoy!

Venezuela contesting elections; opposition on verge of losing supermajority in assembly
By Franz von Bergen, | Fox News
President Maduro gestures to supporters on Dec. 1, 2015, in the popular neighborhood of Petare, in Caracas. (ap)
Caracas, Venezuela – Venezuela's ruling party filed motions to dispute the election of eight lawmakers from the opposition coalition, which on Dec. 6 obtained a majority with enough power to rein in President Nicolás Maduro, sack Cabinet ministers and even call an assembly to rewrite Hugo Chávez's 1999 constitution.
The government's party needs to succeed in unseating just one of the eight elected lawmakers to take away the so-called supermajority from the opposition.
The motions were filed Tuesday before the Supreme Court, just days after the government appointed 13 new justices — including two of the five justices from the Sala Electoral, the panel charged with all electoral issues.
"We are seeing a judicial coup in the making," alerted Jesús Torrealba, secretary of the opposition's Democratic Unity Roundtable, soon after news of the motions came out.
The new National Assembly is set to be sworn in on Jan 5.

Constitutional lawyers Jesús María Casal and Carlos Ayala Corao told Fox News Latino that there is not enough time for the Supreme Court to prepare a strong case before that date, and yet the opposition is not ruling out any possibility.
"We are in a country with no rule of law, and anything could happen," Torrealba said. "For example, the Supreme Court was on vacation but they opened up just to receive this case."
"We're living in a country where you can be surer about the operating hours of a liquor store than the elections tribunal of the Supreme Court," he added.
All five justices from the high court's electoral panel have strong links to PSUV, the ruling socialist party. One of two justices appointed to the Sala Electoral last week, Fanny Márquez, has worked closely to Diosdado Cabello, Chavismo's number two, for over a decade. The other one, Christian Zerpa, used to be a PSUV representative and is said to have ties to Tarek El Aissami, governor of a state – Aragua – where three opposition lawmakers are being contested.
The Supreme Court is required to announce whether it will admit the motions before the end of the week. If that's the case, an investigation will be open, and the elections could be repeated in those places.
When the opposition challenged 2013's presidential election, the Supreme Court didn't admit the case.
However, political analysts say there is a chance the government's move to seek a re-vote backfires.
"The government might lose again and for even a larger margin," analyst Edgard Gutiérrez told FNL.
"In places where the opposition won by three or more points I think the government doesn't stand a chance," said Jesús Seguias, another analyst consulted by FNL. "It will be more challenging where the margins were smaller," he said.
The eight lawmakers being contested hail from six different districts. In four of them the opposition won by less than a three-point margin.
But the opposition's winners are still confident in their chances if the voting is repeated.
"If that happens, I will win by more votes. People are upset with the economic crisis and in my district the voters didn't like the candidate from the ruling party," said Karim Salanova, who won Aragua's third district by just 82 votes.
Gutiérrez said the ruling party's latest moves – which include emergency sessions to ram through the 13 Supreme Court appointments and set up a parallel assembly comprised of grassroots activists – might also be aimed at trying to polarize the country and further divide the opposition.
The opposition coalition is marked by two distinct currents — one eager to find ways to change the government as soon as possible, and one that favors a slower pace in order to consolidate popular support.
If the government keeps its radical tone, analysts say, the differences between the two currents could deepen as it did in early 2014, when Leopoldo López's political party sparked a round of street protests.

Carmen Grilo is de artiestennaam van María del Carmen Grilo Mateos (Jerez, 1984). Carmen Grilo is cantaora, flamencozangeres.

Biografie
Maria del Carmen Grilo, is een nichtje van de cantaor Paquito Fantasías en zusje van de bailaor (flamencodanser) Joaquín Grilo.
Zij debuteerde in 1992, op achtjarige leeftijd, in de cyclus Nuevos Valores del Cante y el Baile  (Nieuwe waarden voor de Cante en Baile) in de Peña El Garbanzo. Vervolgens bezocht ze met regelmaat flamencofestivals rondom haar woonplaats als die van Bornos en Rota. Ondanks haar Jerezaanse wortels denkt ze zelf niet erg beïnvloed te zijn door de stijl van Jerez.

Carmen is sinds 1997 – toen was ze pas 13 jaar oud – cantaora p'atràs (vaste zangeres) van de dansgroep van haar broer Joaquín Grilo, met wie ze optrad in het Palau de la Música in Barcelona (1997) en op het Festival van Jerez in 1998. Sinds haar toetreden in de groep van de danser deed ze mee aan verschillende shows als En el Candela (2000), Jácara (opening van het vierde Jerez Festival in 2000) en De noche. (2001).

Opvallend waren haar optredens met Manolo Sanlúcar, ontstaan tijdens hun samenwerking in de show Tres con duende in Huelva (2000) *). De Jerezaanse werd -ondanks de aanwezigheid van stercantaora Carmen Linares- speciaal door Sanlúcar gevraagd voor de cante in zijn liveshows Locura de brisa y trino op TVE. Uiteindelijk nam ze de plaats van Linares over in de show. Met haar broer Joaquín Grilo en Manolo Sanlúcar trad ze op in de show Entre amigos, door choreograaf en danser José Antonio gepresenteerd tijdens het vijfde Festival van Jerez (2001).

Sinds 2000 richt Carmen Grilo zich steeds meer op haar solocarrière, meestal begeleid door gitarist José Quevedo. Ze deed dit onder andere op het zevende Festival van Jerez (2003) en tijdens de series El flamenco que viene 2004 (de flamenco die komt) in de universiteit van Sevilla. In 2007 was ze, naast Pastora Galván en Argentina de ster in de show Tres Mujeres tijdens het Flamenco Festival van Malaga.  Datzelfde jaar zong ze ook op het debuutalbum van flamencogitarist Santiago Lara El sendero de lo imposible. In 2008 stond ze met Manolo Sanlúcar, David Carmona (2e gitarist) en collega cantaor David Pino in de Bineal de Sevilla, waar men als groep de "Premio Giraldollo al la mejor música" won.

Optredens in het buitenland
In 2005 trad Carmen Grilo op op het internationale festival "Voix de Femmes", dat dat jaar onder meer Antwerpen, Luik en Brussel aandeed.. In 2007 gaf zij optredens en workshops bij het Barclay Flamenco Festival in Irvine, Californië.

Oligodon deuvei is a species of colubrid snake. It is found in Cambodia, southern Vietnam, and Laos; it is expected to occur in northeastern Thailand. The species differs from other known species of its group by the combination of 12–15 maxillary teeth, 17 dorsal scale rows at its midbody, approximately seven supralabials, the absence of dorsal and tail blotches, and the presence of a single vertebral black stripe, which is usually orange or red. O. deuvei is most similar to Oligodon barroni, but differs from the latter by having more maxillary teeth and its absence of dorsal and tail marks.

RadiciGroup invests EUR 15 million in meltblown line
Strategic decision is aimed at more independent Italian production of personal protective equipment.
| Bergamo, Italy
Protective, Medical/Hygiene
RadiciGroup has taken the next step in its commitment to the health emergency response, by making a sizeable investment in the purchase of a new production line for meltblown nonwoven, the material used for manufacturing protective face masks and other personal protective equipment (PPE).
The group has been at the forefront in the fight against the spread of Covid-19 from the very beginning of the pandemic, above all by rapidly setting up a production chain involving local factories for the manufacture of spunbond nonwoven for medical gowns and other personal protective equipment. As a result of these actions, Radici says it quickly came to the decision to produce meltblown nonwoven, a type of nonwoven not readily available in the Italian market, but indispensable in the manufacture of surgical masks.
"In the midst of the pandemic crisis," said Maurizio Radici, vice president and COO of RadiciGroup, "the lack of meltblown nonwoven became evident. We kept receiving tens of requests from potential customers. A very small quantity of meltblown material is produced in Europe, which is certainly not sufficient to meet demand in a health emergency. Given our extensive experience in the field of nonwovens, we swiftly began figuring out how to set up a chain for the production of PPE in Italy. And, as soon as the opportunity arose to take concrete action, we had no hesitation to jump on it".
The investment made by RadiciGroup for the meltblown nonwoven production line is EUR 15 million. Presently being installed, the large new line is extremely sophisticated and technologically advanced, the company says. It has a high production capacity and can also realize products with special technical characteristics, not only made of polypropylene, but also other polymers, such as polyester, polyamide and TPU. The new line is being set up at Tessiture Pietro Radici SpA, a group company based in Gandino (Bergamo), where work was previously carried out to ready the site.
Enrico Buriani, CEO of Tessiture Pietro Radici, added: "With this new line installed in the Seriana Valley – among the areas in Italy that have been hardest hit by the coronavirus pandemic, RadiciGroup will become one of the few European manufacturers able to offer both spunbond nonwoven – a well-known product already produced by Tessiture Pietro Radici for many years and used in protective face masks as both the outer layer of fabric and the inner one in direct contact with the face – and meltblown, which is the real filtering and protective component of all types of masks, including surgical and FFP2 or FFP3 protective masks. In terms of production capacity, the new line will be able to produce about 120 tons/month of meltblown nonwoven, or enough material to make about 170 million surgical masks per month."
"The objective is to reduce the dependence on imports from non-European countries – indeed, during the pandemic, there have been long slowdowns in deliveries of imports – and to bring back to Italy the production of essential products for health protection needed during health emergencies. Suffice it to say that, from February to August 2020, Italy imported EUR 2.66 billion worth of masks, 92% of which came from China (source: Assosistema – Confindustria)."
"We believe it is vital for Italy not to be caught unprepared in future health emergencies," Mr. Radici continued. "Our country must have its own production of essential goods, and our purchase of the new line for the production of meltblown nonwoven is a step in that direction. At the same time, the production line is an investment for our Group, because we must also consider the fact that other technical applications will be found for this material, such as filtration, thus presenting prospects for economic sustainability in the medium term."
On the technical side, meltblown fabric is a continuous filament nonwoven (from 1 to 5 microns in diameter), has excellent filtering capability even for particles of microscopic size, such as viruses, and ensures breathability and protection. The installation of the machinery will be completed in January 2021, after which the line will start operating 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Today we are excited to be a super sponsor for the National Coffee Day Blog hop!
To see the complete hop list of super sponsors head over to the Coffee Loving Cardmakers for the whole list of stops! Many of the sponsors are giving away prizes too!
PLUS - We're doing a mini blog hop today too with our Design Team! Scroll down to see the hop list at the end of this post and leave comments on their blogs for a chance to win a prize!
For my first card I used our Coffee & Wine Stamp Set to create this fun watercolor card. I splashed some purple and brown distress inks on a watercolor panel to represent coffee and wine splatters. Then I stamped the big sentiment in black and added the little mug and wine bottle at the bottom. I used a paint brush and some distress inks to color in the images. Then I used the fishtail border from our Fancy Edges Tag Die to cut the bottom.
For the background I stamped all the small images from the set onto a piece of kraft cardstock in a random pattern with brown ink to create a nice tonal background. I added a little strip of washi tape up the side and mounted the whole thing on a dark brown card base.
For my second card I used that cute sloth from our Slothy Coffee Stamp Set. I stamped and colored him with copics and cut him out using the coordinating Slothy Coffee Die Set. Then I decided he needed more coffee so I pulled out our Newton Loves Coffee Stamp Set and stamped a few coffee mugs from that set. I colored those with copics too and cut them out using the coordinating Newton Loves Coffee Die Set.
Then I assembled my card, adding the sentiment from the Slothy Coffee Stamp Set, embossed in white on brown circle. I added a teal scalloped border using our Sky Borders Die Set. I also added some coffee beans in the background panel from our Newton Loves Coffee Stamp Set. A bit of twine gives it a finishing touch!
Hope you enjoyed this coffee card today! Remember, you can find more super sponsor links over at the Coffee Lover's Blog.

Welcome to Boe Nguidjol. Freshman.
6'9" from Middlebrooks Academy in LA.
Had offers from Idaho St., Cal State Northridge and Eastern Washington.
Last edited by Rogobob77 on Mon Aug 20, 2018 9:24 am, edited 1 time in total.
Impressive stats in '16-'17: 23 ppg, 14.9 rpg, 60% from the field. Just 49% from the line.
Also was offered by Eastern Washington, a 20-15 team last season that beat Stanford in Palo Alto.
Cal State Northridge hired Mark Gottfried as HC and the original Jim Harrick as top assistant after it went 6-24 last year. Gottfried was HC at NC State when the agent payment issues to his PG Smith occurred. But he recruited very good talent to NC State while there.
Could be more like a Paris Bass-type player than a bruising inside player. Maxpreps says that he averaged 23 PPG and 14.9 RBG as a junior in LA. No stats from Middlebrooks Academy available, but that team went 28-12.
Looks more like a player that Davis wants to develop this year for the coming seasons. Question will be how well he plays when he is not the tallest guy on the court. He shows a jump shot on his tape, but does not appear to have the 3-point range of Willy Isiani.
Can he play this year, or next year? I can't keep everybody straight.

Coming straight from a prep school, so no apparent reason he would not be eligible for 2018-19.
Boe had some great moments today. Huge potential. He could be a force in HL ball if he puts on some pounds and hits the weights.

Q: Python writes into csv file, incorrectly I tried my code in Mac, and it is ok, but in windows, python does not write my list correctly into a CSV file, and some data is written in different rows while it should be written in the same row.
personel = [firstname, lastname, detail]
with open("hr.csv", "a", newline='', encoding="utf-8") as csvfile:
    writer = csv.writer(csvfile)
    writer.writerow(personel)

A: I wrote a test program with your code (on Windows 10) and didn't find a problem with the CSV output. Run this on your machine and see what happens.
This is the test output (it consists of random letters):
fziziszaoq,gxlcgmncdn,bjehjbcjgq
lrzzbujdru,bxxqkavqro,mktmygqmrc
mauzgqkgqw,uijnzavbyi,jhjqxkbran
oplrispslo,irvkjgcimm,kjbfbpilmi
regaajxhdf,wwtyyspuoi,icmrcjwswx

This is the test code:
import csv
import random
import string

def randomString(stringLength=10):
    letters = string.ascii_lowercase
    return ''.join(random.choice(letters) for i in range(stringLength))

x = 0
while(x < 5):
    personel = [randomString(), randomString(), randomString()]
    with open("hr.csv", "a", newline='', encoding="utf-8") as csvfile:
        writer = csv.writer(csvfile)
        writer.writerow(personel)
    x = x + 1

My suspicion is that your inputs contain newlines. Check that there are not stray newline characters in firstname, lastname, or  detail.

We would like to thank Frank Traugott who has stepped down as President after 4 years. Frank did a tremendous job as President, and during his term membership grew, there were significant improvements to the Club, and he built a solid and cohesive team.
At the AGM, Frank highlighted some of the achievements during his term. He said, "4 years ago our Board identified increasing membership as a key objective. We had come off the back of 4 years of declining membership. Our membership grew again this year and has grown more than 20% over the past 4 years, whilst branch membership has declined 4%."
Frank also said, "Today I step down as President after 4 years. It has been an absolute privilege to have served in that role at this great club. When I look back, I am constantly amazed and humbled at what our members do for the community. Not just this year, but every year. It does not happen by accident; nor for payment. Every member, supporter and sponsor is responsible for the club's success. So, thank you all."
Thank you, Frank, for all your great work and for so ably leading our great Club!
Kyra Jenkins left the Board after 3 years of being Chief Instructor. Kyra did a great job in this role and trained a lot of new bronzies, kept the courses running and was instrumental in the success of special training programs like Riverview. At the AGM, Kyra received an Outstanding Service award and is the youngest person ever to receive this at North Steyne.
Shannon Job also stepped down from his Assistant Secretary role and involvement with the Board for many years. Shannon was responsible for a lot of behind the scenes work, and we always relied on his sage advice to ensure we are doing things right – a constitutional walking wiki! Thank goodness he will still be around to contribute, regardless of having a formal role or not.
Others who were acknowledged for their outstanding service at the AGM include:
NSW Premier's Volunteer Service Award, 40 years of Service: Keith Crampton and Paul Day
Distinguished Service: Chris Gibbs Stewart
Outstanding Service: Kyra Jenkins and Brett Patrick
Scholarship Recipients: Ella Falzarano, Oscar Cowell, and Emma Hillier
A number of national patrol service awards and officiating, training, assessing, facilitating and coaching service awards were also acknowledged.
Congratulations to all for a job well done!

Percy Lavon Julian – Black History Month
Percy Lavon Julian is the father of medical drugs— his efforts brought us the standard today in cortisone, steroids, birth control pills and other medications.
Percy Lavon Julian: pioneer in the chemical synthesis of medicinal drugs from plants.
Percy Julian grew up in racist Jim Crow culture and legal regime in Montgomery, Alabama. At a time when access to an education beyond the eighth grade was extremely rare for African-Americans, Julian's parents steered all of their children toward higher education, of whom even Julian's father was the son of a slave.
The segregated nature of the town forced social humiliations while attending DePauw University in Indiana. He was not allowed to live or eat in many place around campus, but worked around it by doing odd jobs in a fraternity house; in return, having a place to sleep in the attic and eat at the house. Julian graduated from DePauw in 1920 as a Phi Beta Kappa and valedictorian.
Julian would set his sights at receiving higher degrees student, but in 1923 he received an Austin Fellowship in Chemistry, which allowed him to attend Harvard University to obtain his M.S. but was soon withdrawn the teaching assistantship due to concerns of Euro-American students resenting being taught by an African-American. This would make it impossible for him to complete his Ph.D. at Harvard. Julian would become an instructor at Fisk University instead. Years later, Julian received a Rockefeller Foundation fellowship to continue his graduate work at the University of Vienna, where he earned his Ph.D. in 1931 and found racial freedom.
Returning from Vienna, he would teach for one year at Howard University, but soon a scandal regarding private letters to a colleague about his "sex-capades" would force Julian to resign.
After an embarrassing low point in Julian's career, his former mentor, William Blanchard offered Julian a position to teach organic chemistry at DePauw University in 1932.
Career and Discoveries
This alkaloid proved effective in treating glaucoma, a disease responsible for 15 percent of all cases of blindness in the United States. Any scientist who could fully synthesize the alkaloid in a lab would receive considerable international attention, but pursuing physostigmine could have been career suicide as it would have looked as if he was changeling the expert. His success led to landing the position of director of research at Chicago's Glidden Company. It would be there that he'd obtain 100 patents due to his work with the "miracle [soy]bean" that was developed into many products.
One of his greatest discoveries was stigma-sterol, after an accident where he'd recognize a plant steroid that could be converted into the pregnancy hormone progesterone. Through this achievement and later hormonal research, Julian helped launch the steroid industry, whose products would eventually include cortisone and the birth control pill.
Another product he would come to discover is Aero-Foam in 1942. During World War II, the United States Navy applied the foam to oil and gas fires on board aircraft carriers and other ships, effectively saving thousands.
In 1949, Minnesota's Mayo Clinic discovered that the steroid cortisone could ease the symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis. While many chemists attempted to produce the chemical from scratch, Julian tried a seemingly simpler approach: synthesizing an almost identical steroid called Compound S, which would eventually make the steroid a key ingredient in cortisone production, just as he had predicted.
He later started his own company to synthesize steroid intermediates from the wild Mexican yam, as it became an additional alternative to the soybean. His work helped greatly reduce the cost of steroid intermediates to large multinational pharmaceutical companies, helping to significantly expand the use of several important drugs.
Julian received more than 130 chemical patents. He was one of the first African Americans to receive a doctorate in chemistry. He was the first African-American chemist inducted into the National Academy of Sciences. in 1993, the U.S. Postal Service issued a commemorative stamp in his honor (which you can buy here). In 1999, the American Chemical Society recognized his synthesis of the glaucoma drug physostigmine as one of the top achievements in the history of American chemistry.

Q: When a JVM crashes (segfaults) during garbage collection, how can I find out what was being collected? I get segfaults in my JVM at roughly the same phase of the application, but with varying stack traces in the crash report. It always seems to happen during GC, however.
Since the crash happens in all three JVMs I tried (OpenJDK 6, Oracle 1.6.0_25 and 1.7.0) and with two GCs each (Parallel Collector and CMS), and it happens around the same area in the application, I figured, if I could find what the GC was trying to collect, I might spot some peculiarity in my code that causes this crash.

*

*Are there any coding practices that are well known to be problematic for GC?

*What methods are available for diagnosing this problem?

*Can I make any educated guesses on where in my application this problem is triggered?

*What (GC tuning) parameters can I play with to narrow the problem down?

*Is there a way to spot (possibly) problematic data in a heap dump?

A: This will happen if you have JNI library which handles memory incorrectly.  The problem does not show immediately.  However when a GC is performed, it scans all the memory, trips over the corrupted reference and kills the JVM. i.e. the corruption could have occurred at any time since the last Full GC.

A: *

*seg faults have specific error codes at the beginning of the dump
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Segmentation_fault

*You can use Thread.dumpStackTrace to see what is going on in that application
If you know exactly where your application is freezing or going to freeze after a certain action or event you can CTRL + break windows or CTRL + \ to get a thread dump and see what is going on.

*Instead of vaguely guessing you can comment out certain sections of the code to find out which loop or object or buffer or string is taking too long

*depending upon your situation you can consider some specific tools.

A: We were also facing similiar issue. There was no pattern we could see and it was quite random but happening either on GC or Full GC. For us it turned out to be an issue with the RAM modules. We identified it using MemTest86+ on the Ubuntu server.

A: *

*I suggest you get both Thread dump and Heap dump, You can do this either from command line are use a tool like Visual VM

*I think Heap dump being snap shot of JVM memory will provide information about live objects and their allocations. If you analyze the heap using Visual VM it does provide a detailed report on all the objects on heap

*I would suggest you bump of the GC collection on your application to verbose and analyze them using a tool like tagtraum

*If you can attach a JVM profiler that can be provide a lot of information or If you have general idea of the work flow that is causing the problem then just profile that in isolation

OR XLVI P1 #72: Report of Bvt. Lieutenant Colonel John G. Hazard, 1st RI Lt Arty, commanding Arty/II/AotP, Mar 29-Apr 9, 1865
in Appomattox Campaign Reports (95)
No. 72. Report of Bvt. Lieutenant Colonel John G. Hazard, First Rhode Island Light Artillery, commanding Artillery Brigade.1
HDQRS. ARTILLERY BRIGADE, SECOND ARMY CORPS,
MAJOR: I have the honor to report that, in obedience to orders from headquarters Second Corps, dated March 28, 1865, I directed Captain J. W. Roder, Battery K, Fourth U. S. Artillery, and Captain George K. Dakin, M, First New Hampshire Artillery, to report to Brevet Major-General Miles; Captain J. Webb Adams, Tenth Massachusetts Battery, and Lieutenant William B. Westcott, B, First Rhode Island Artillery, to Brigadier-General Hays; and Captain A. J. Clark, B, First New Jersey Artillery, and Lieutenant James A. Manning, Eleventh New York Battery, to report to Brevet Major-General Mott, commanding Third Division. The commands broke camp March 29, at 6 a. m., the
Second Division, Brigadier-General Hays, leading. After crossing Hatcher's Run about half a mile, Battery B, First Rhode Island Light Artillery, Lieutenant William B. Westcott, was put in position on the right side of the road facing toward Dabney's Mill; the Third Division, Brevet Major-General Mott, moved out to the left of Second Division; the batteries went into park on the Vaughan road, near the Brown house; First Division, Brevet Major-General Miles, with its batteries, moved to the left and connected with Third Division, its batteries went into park on the Vaughan road, near the Brown house; First Division, Brevet Major-General Miles, with its batteries, moved to the left and connected with Third Division, its batteries accompanying it. The corps remained in this position during the night; the batteries unhitched and unharnessed.
Thursday, March 30, the First and Third Divisions advanced their lines, the left of the First Division crossing the Boydton plank road and connecting with right of Fifth Corps. Captain Roder's battery (K, Fourth U. S. Artillery) was placed in position on the left of First Division, near Raineys house, and covering the left of the line; M, First New Hampshire Artillery, was put in position at junction of Boydton plank road and Quaker road, a little to the left of Captain Roder's battery and covering the left front of First Division, which crossed the Boydton plank road near Rainey's house and about 700 yards in advance of old position. Battery B, First New Jersey, and Eleventh New York Battery still in park near the Brown house. About 7 p. m. Battery B, First Rhode Island, moved into position near the Crow house, on the Second Division front. tenth Massachusetts Battery moved up in a field near Dabney's Mill and parked. Batteries remained in these positions all night.
Friday, March 31, batteries in same position, firing occasionally in reply to the enemy, when about 12 m. the enemy commenced a spirited attack on the right of the Fifth Corps. Captain Clark, Battery B, First New Jersey Artillery, and Lieutenant Manning, Eleventh New York Battery, were hurried up, and Captain Clark's battery put in position in front of Rainey's house, covering the new line of First Division, which was being advanced to check the enemy, who had succeeded in driving the right of Fifth Corps from its position. Eleventh New York Battery relieved a battery of Fifth Corps on the crest to the right of Rainey's house; immediately upon Eleventh New York Battery taking position they opened fire and succeeded in silencing the enemy's reach orchard battery. The First Division succeeded in checking and afterward in driving the enemy to his main line of works, and establishing a new line upon the ground thus occupied. At 9 p.m. Captain Clark's battery was put in position was put in position on this new line, about one mile and a half in advance of his previous position; remained until 12 p. m., when the battery was withdrawn and parked near Boydton road at 3 a.m. At 11 p. m. K, Fourth U. S. Artillery, and Eleventh New York Battery changed position, a smooth-bore battery being found more effective in the position on the line occupied by Eleventh New York Battery changed position, a smooth-bore battery being found more effective in the position on the line occupied by eleventh New York Battery; Tenth Massachusetts Battery was moved from filed near Dabney's Mill, and put in position on the right of B, First Rhode Island Artillery, at Crow's house; at dark this battery was withdrawn and moved to extreme left of line and parked near Rainey's house. During the day K, Fourth U. S. Artillery, and M, First New Hampshire Artillery, succeed in silencing and keeping quiet the enemy's artillery, which was in a large work on the Boydton road.
Saturday, April 1, early in the morning, Battery B, First Rhode Island Artillery, in position at Crow's house, engaged the enemy's battery,
which was a small redoubt. At 6 p.m. the right section was advanced about 300 yards, and threw up covering for its men. About 4 p. m. Battery B, First New Jersey Artillery, was put in position again near Rainey's house. With the exception of Battery B, First Rhode Island Artillery, the batteries were not engaged.
April 2, at 4 a. m. the Tenth Massachusetts Battery, Captain Adams, took position on the Boydton plank road, on the right of Captain Dakin's battery, and at 7 a. m. engaged the enemy. About daylight the enemy opened upon Battery M, First New Hampshire Artillery; his fire was replied to by that battery and the Tenth Massachusetts Battery until 9 a.m., when it was observed that the enemy was evacuating the works. A reconnaissance was sent out under General McAllister, the batteries covering the movement. Captain Roder's battery opened on a small work that the infantry were about to charge; he succeeded in driving the artillery out, when our troops took possession. At this time it was found that the enemy was evacuating his entire line from Hatcher's Run to the Boydton road. Mott's division was ordered to advance, and Battery K, Fourth U. S. Artillery, and Eleventh New York Battery were assigned to move with it, which they did, occupying the enemy's works, and afterward moving by way of plank road toward Petersburg. Captain Clark's battery and M, First New Hampshire Artillery, were ordered to follow down the enemy's line to White Oak road, and report to General Miles, who was assisting Major-General Sheridan's command. Battery B, First Rhode Island Artillery, was brought up to the plank road and ordered, together with Tenth Massachusetts Battery, to follow, and report to General Hays, Second Division; Battery B, First New Jersey Artillery, and M, First New Hampshire Artillery, by order of General Miles, occupied a position near the road, and shelled a piece of woods that was supposed to cover the enemy's cavalry. The batteries continued firing until the enemy was forced to leave his works and retreat. During this time Captain Roder's battery and Eleventh New York Battery had marched within two miles of Petersburg, where Captain Roder's battery was put in position and opened fire on the enemy, who was attempting to establish an entrenched skirmish line. the distance being so great, little could be accomplished, and when the division formed line of battle, the battery was withdrawn and put in position on a high knoll to the right, where it remained all night.
April 3, the Third Division, accompanied by its batteries, moved from Petersburg, via River road, to near Wells' Church, where it joined the First Division and marched to Coleman's house. Through some misunderstanding the Second Division, followed by its batteries, moved from Wells' Church to near Petersburg, and then back from Petersburg to the Coleman house, where they joined and camped with the corps.
April 4, corps started at 6 a. m., batteries following the divisions, and marched to near the Jones house, and encamped for the night.
April 5, corps moved at 1 a. m., batteries following their divisions, and took the Namozine road; followed this road four miles, and took a road leading to the right toward Jetersville; following this road to Jetersville,
crossed the Danville railroad, and took position on the left of the Fifth Corps. All the batteries were put in position on the line excepting one section of the Tenth Massachusetts Battery.
April 6, corps moved toward Amelia Sulphur Springs, where we came up with the enemy's wagon train. M, First New Hampshire Artillery, was put in position, and opened on the train; Captain Roder's Battery and Tenth Massachusetts Battery also shelled the train. These batteries continued moving with the advanced line, shelling the enemy every time he took position, until we came up to him in a strong position, trying to cover the crossing of his train over Sailor's Creek. Captain Clarks' and Captain Dakin's batteries were put in on the right of Third Division, and opened fire on two of the enemy's batteries, causing them to withdraw hastily. Captain Roder's battery was put in position on the left of Third Division and opened on the enemy's batteries also. These batteries assisted materially in the capture of a large train at Sailor's Creek by causing the enemy's batteries to cease firing. Encamped for the night near Sailor's Creek.
April 7, moved at 6.30 a.m. cross Sailor's Creek to High Bridge, where the Tenth Massachusetts Battery, M, First New Hampshire Artillery, and B, First Rhode Island Artillery, were placed in position and opened fire on the enemy's retreating columns; also upon a party who were trying to destroy High Bridge. The enemy son after retreated, leaving a large number of guns, &c. The batteries continued the march on the right of Farmville, about four miles, to Price's farm, where the enemy were found strongly entrenched. On the approach of the head of our column the enemy opened a lively artillery fire. Dakin's and Clark's batteries were put in position and succeeded in silencing the battery.. The enemy were found so strongly posted in was thought necessary to put more artillery fire. Dakin's and Clark's batteries were put in position and succeeded in silencing the battery. The enemy were found so strongly posted it was thought necessary to put more artillery in position. Roder's battery was brought up and put on the right of Clark's battery was brought up and put on the right; Battery B, First Rhode Island Artillery, was placed in position on the Third Division line. During this time one section of B, First New Jersey Artillery, Lieutenant Rhein's, was moved to the left about 800 yards, on a crest on the right of Third Division; Tenth Massachusetts Battery was put in position on the right of Lieutenant Rhein's section; M, First New Hampshire Artillery, was advanced about 700 yards, to the new line erected by the First Division. After dark Roder's battery and Eleventh New York Battery were placed on and to the right of the old stage road, on the line of the Second Division. The other batteries remained in their positions all night.
April 8, corps moved at 6 a. m. to New Stone, and halted about 10 p. m.; resumed the march in the direction of Clover Hill; marched four and a half miles and bivouacked for the remainder of the night.
April 9, continued the march at 9 o'clock; at 11.30 a. m. halted. Clark's battery was put in position to cover skirmish line of First Division pending the result of the conference of Lieutenant-General Grant and General Lee. This battery remained in position and the other batteries halted in the road until 4 p. m., when the announcement was made that the Army of Northern Virginia had surrendered. The batteries then went into camp. April 10, commands remained in camp all day. April 11, batteries moved together, under my command, back on the same road they advanced to New Store and camped for the night. April 12, command moved at 6 a. m. by a plantation and from thence by the plank road to Farmville; parked on the hills near Farmville. April 13, started at 6 a. m.; camped near Rice's Station, on the Danville railroad. April 14, started at 6 a. m. and marched to Burkeville; arrived here at 2 p. m.; went into camp and have remained here since.
From the nature of the arm of the service, no trophies have fallen into our hands as pledges of gallantry; but officers and men have performed every duty promptly and faithfully, and I claim for the artillery of the corps a share of the laurels so nobly earned by it.
I would make special mention of Bvt. Major T. Fred. Brown, B, First Rhode Island Artillery; Bvt. Captain J. W. Roder, Battery K, Fourth U. S. Artillery; and Captain A. Judson Clark, Battery B, First New Jersey Artillery, for their valuable assistance; also Lieutenant A. M. E. Gordon, acting assistant adjutant-general, and Lieutenant John G. Deane, acting aide-de-camp, for the promptness with which they performed their arduous duties.*
