Q: Bootstrap 3.0:responsive column resets section of the documentation Hey so in the bootstrap 3.0 documentation if you look under the subheading "responsive column resets" it says the following:

"With the four tiers of grids available you're bound to run into issues where, at certain breakpoints, your columns don't clear quite right as one is taller than the other. To fix that, use a combination of a .clearfix and our responsive utility classes."

Now what do they mean by this? I thought floats cleared-or didn't-based on width. What am I missing here?

A: I believe the example on http://getbootstrap.com/css/#grid-responsive-resets is wrong and not illustrating the problem.
The example on http://getbootstrap.com/css/#grid-responsive-resets not visual illustrating the problem.

your columns don't clear quite right as one is taller than the other

example without clearfix:

.col-xs-6 .col-sm-3

.col-xs-6 .col-sm-3

.col-xs-6 .col-sm-3 (left)

.col-xs-6 .col-sm-3 (right)

On the extra small (xs) with the first column (red) taller then the second (blue )will cause the third (green) column float on the right side of the first too.
without clearfix

with clearfix

.col-xs-6 .col-sm-3

.col-xs-6 .col-sm-3

.col-xs-6 .col-sm-3 (left)

.col-xs-6 .col-sm-3 (right)

col-*-12
The problem happens also when you add more the 12 columns in a row and one of this rows should be 100% (col-*-12).
Consider this situation:
On the larger grids you want: 1 | 2 | 3
On the xs grid you want:

1 | 2
  3
You can accomplish the above with:
Without clearfix:

1

2

3

The red background will show you the last column will overlap the first. Adding the clearfix will remove this background:
With clearfix:

1

2

3

The results:

The overlap mentioned will be cause by the col-12-* classes don't have a float left, see also: https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap/issues/10152
On https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap/issues/10535 you will find an other illustration. This fiddle shows how the clearfix will solve the problem. Note
 here don't have a col-12-*. On the xs grid columns are 100% by default and don't have a float so col-xs-12-* will act the same as having non class on the xs grid.

Ahhhh.. summer perfect time to wear shorts, skirts, spaghetti straps, tube blouses wherein you can show some skin. Just make sure you have glowing skin so you'll be more confident to show. I found these sets on Polyvore and and I specifically love those espadrilles.
Just a reminder, don't wear shoes/sandals that are too high. Give your feet some rest because it can contribute to feet or joint pains. I know you don't want to end up finding a joint pain relief just in case your joints are acting up.


When the summer months hit and you find that your return to the tennis court caused a little annoying back pain, or that extra long run on the beach caused your knees to feel cranky, these at home remedies are a sure-fire way to get you back in action in no-time.
Cold causes the narrowing or vasoconstriction of the small blood vessels supplying blood to the injured area which reduces the amount of fluid that leaks from damaged vessels into the injury and the amount of swelling. The at home remedy of cold application is most effective when it is used before there is actual swelling in order to prevent it.
When you have overworked a muscle like the quadriceps, it will sometimes pull on the knee, causing knee pain. Another awesome in home remedy to eliminate knee pain is by massaging the surrounding muscles in order to get them to loosen up, relieving the strain on the knee joint. The quadriceps and the iliotibial band, also known as the IT Band, can be manually massaged, or you can roll on a foam roller for relief.
The best at home remedy to relieve tightness and stiffness from overuse or anew activity, is to gently stretch into the sore muscle creating relief. Opening up the muscle with active stretching promotes faster recovery time.
A hot bath is another home remedy that can warm up and loosen aching muscles. Applying heat to the inflamed area will help sore and tightened muscles relax. In addition, heat promotes better blood flow and circulation to the area, which also eliminates any lactic acid waste buildup. Heat therapy is most useful for an aching back, but ice wins so if you want to start with heat, end with ice to prevent any swelling.

Graco Children's Products Inc.
Modified on 2009/10/14 21:44 by admin
» Graco Children's Products Inc.
[X] » Graco Children's Products Inc.
In March 2005, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) announced a provisional settlement with one of the nation's largest children's product manufacturers for the largest civil penalty levied in CPSC history. CPSC has provisionally imposed a $4 million penalty against Graco Children's Products Inc., of Exton, Pa., for failing to inform the government in a timely manner about more than 12 million products that posed a danger to young children nationwide. CPSC and Graco also are announcing the recall today of about 1.2 million toddler beds, sold between February 1994 and March 2001, because a child's arm or leg can become entrapped in the guard rails or footboard. The company's failure to report the toddler beds is one of the violations leading to today's penalty.
"CPSC is at the forefront of protecting children from products that can cause serious injuries," stated CPSC Chairman Hal Stratton. "Today's announcement demonstrates our commitment to protecting American families by holding companies accountable for keeping safety information from us."
Graco, which acquired the Century brand name in 1998, is now owned by Newell Rubbermaid Inc. From 1991 through 2002, Graco and Century failed to report defects in juvenile products that the Commission said could create substantial product hazards or unreasonable risks of injury or death to young children. According to the CPSC, the company failed to report hundreds of incidents and injuries involving 16 different products. The products, all used by young children, include infant carriers, high chairs, infant swings, strollers and toddler beds. The injuries range from contusions and fractures to strangulation (including some fatalities).
The CPSC and Graco are also finalizing corrective action plans for two additional products that were manufactured between 1994 and 2001 and are addressed by today's penalty.
Stratton added, "We want companies to take their reporting responsibilities very seriously. The action taken by Newell Rubbermaid to identify these critical safety failures by companies they purchased and take the necessary measures to improve product safety is a positive step that other companies should follow."
If your child has been seriously injured or killed due to a Graco children's product, it may be important for you to contact an attorney who can help you protect your child's legal rights. Please keep in mind that there may be time limits within which you must commence suit.

How to Quit Smoking Chevron Right
22 People Have Been Hospitalized From Vaping—Here's Why E-Cigarettes Are So Dangerous
Some cases are so severe, the patients are unable to breathe on their own.
By Christina Oehler
Nearly two dozen people—mostly young adults—have now been hospitalized with severe breathing difficulties as a result of vaping.
According to NBC News, a total of 22 cases have been reported: four in Minnesota, 12 in Wisconsin, and six in Illinois—up from 14 reported cases in Wisconsin and Illinois in early August.
Even more concerning: Doctors don't know for sure what exactly is causing these hospitalizations. Per NBC News, it's unclear what type of e-cigarette devices the people were using, what they were inhaling, and where they purchased the devices or e-liquids in the first place.
RELATED: Teens Are 'Juuling' At School. Here's What That Means
In an August press release from the Wisconsin Department of Health Services (WDHS), the admitted patients experienced symptoms like shortness of breath, fatigue, chest pain, cough, nausea, and weight loss—and NBC News notes that four patients in Wisconsin were hospitalized with what they initially thought was pneumonia. The department said that while the severity varied among patients, some cases were so bad that they require breathing assistance.
One patient, a Burlington, Wisconsin man in his mid-20s, was even put in a medically-induced coma as a result of lung damage from vaping, according to Fox 6 Now, a Wisconsin-based news channel. (It's believed, however, that specific incident may have been caused by a vape cartridge containing THC—the main psychoactive compound in marijuana; a trend that hasn't been seen in the other Wisconsin and Illinois cases).
"Vaping among teens has increased dramatically over the last several years," Illinois Department of Public Health Director Dr. Ngozi Ezike wrote in a press release. "While the short- and long-term effects of vaping are still being researched, these recent hospitalizations heighten the need for parents talk with their teens about vaping and for both to understand the consequences and potential dangers of vaping."
Of course, the Midwest isn't alone in this vaping increase: According to a 2018 report from the surgeon general, more than 3.6 million U.S. youth, including 1 in 5 high school students and 1 in 20 middle school students, use e-cigarettes regularly. Unfortunately, teens are even more likely to reap the consequences of e-cigarettes than adults.
RELATED: FDA to Regulate E-Cigarettes and Ban Sales to Minors
"Teens may be poised to suffer more harm from e-cigarettes than adults for a few reasons. The first is that their brains are more susceptible to nicotine addiction compared with adults," Christy Sadreameli, MD, a pediatric pulmonologist at Johns Hopkins Hospital and spokesperson for the American Lung Association, tells Health. "Another is that the lungs, and specifically the tiny air sacs in the lungs called alveoli, are still developing into mid-adolescence. Therefore, teens may be exposing themselves to very harmful chemicals while their lungs are not even fully developed."
RELATED: E-Cigarettes to Be Regulated as Tobacco Products
As far as those harmful chemicals go, e-cigarettes typically contain "ultra fine particles, harmful flavorings, and heavy metals," says Dr. Sadreameli—which are harmful for even developed lungs. "For some examples of harmful components, e-cigarette emissions have been shown to contain formaldehyde, a carcinogen, and materials that can cause permanent damage to the lung, such as diacetyl (which can cause a condition called 'popcorn lung') and acrolein (which can also do permanent lung damage)."
While the possible cause of theses incidents is still under investigation, officials are warning those who use e-cigarettes to seek immediate medical attention if they experience any type of chest pain or difficulty breathing after vaping. Health care providers caring for patients with unexpected serious respiratory illness have also been urged to ask about a history of recent vaping.

I just recently added the Wireless Network Adapter to the Dell configured it and placed in it service I am able to connect to the internet from the Dell and Toshiba. Here is where it gets a little squirrelly. When I map the network from the Dell, There is a Huge question Mark ICON and the word "Unknown" in the leg between the computer and the router and the Laptop and Multifunction printer is shown normally. When I map the Network from the Laptop, The Laptop and Multifunction is shown normally but the Dell is shown at the bottom lower left corner of the screen and the words above read" The following discovered devices cannot be placed on the map" This a consistent occurrence. I can't connect to the Dell from the Toshiba and I don't know how to correct the problem. I can provide screen shots if needed.
I solved the problem by disableing the IPV6 options on both Network Adapter Cards. I can't explain why it worked but it did.
Recently learned that disabling IPv6 is not suggested by Microsoft. Try enabling again and see if issue will come back.

FLASHBACK JULY: While Hospitalized 'Nurses Would Breath in My Nostrils to Make Me Move'
Biden Says that While Hospitalized, Nurses Would 'Breath in My Nostrils'
THIS IS REAL: Joe Biden Says that While Hospitalized, Nurses Would 'Breath in My Nostrils'
Posted by Sean Hannity on Wednesday, July 22, 2020
*FLASHBACK JULY 2020*
Former Vice President confused millions of viewers on social media this week during a podcast interview; bizarrely stating that "nurses would breath" into his nostrils at the hospital to "make him move."
"You can't do it in the CoVID time, but they'd actually breath in my nostrils to make me move, to get me moving," said Biden.
The Democrat nominee made similar statements earlier this month, suggesting his team is sending "groups of lawyers" to "voter registration physicians."

"You see what's happening all around the world with his embrace of dictators. Folks like Putin, Kim Jong Un in South Korea and the way he talks about America, the way he talks about our allies," said Biden.
"I know them. Putin has no illusions about whether I know him or not. Kim Jong Un has no illusions about whether I know him or not… I've spent a lot of time with these folks, they know," he added.

"My name is Joe Biden. I'm a Democratic candidate for the United States Senate. Look me over, if you like what you see, help out. If not, vote for the other Biden," he told supporters just days before the South Carolina primary.
Biden made similar comments earlier this month, delivering a speech in Nevada where he called for innovative solutions like they've implemented "Here in California."
"The new technologies are capable of doing so much more. For example, there's no reason why -at our ports- we don't have solar capacity to be able to make sure we save a lot of energy, create a lot of new jobs for people out there, just like here in California… I mean… here in Nevada," said Biden.

You are here: Home » News » Acoustic loggers hit the right note for United Utilities
United Utilities is investing £30 million to install 100,000 acoustic microphones, or loggers, in a bid to reduce water leakage.
The water company claims it is the biggest "listening" project of its kind in the world, with the technology to be rolled out over the next two years on its underground water supply network.
An acoustic logger is a small device that would fit in the palm of a hand and is installed directly onto the fittings of a water pipe.
The loggers "listen" for the characteristic noise waves that are transferred through pipe walls by a leak and upon detection of the sound, they send an alarm to the water company's integrated control centre, following which analysts can send engineers to pinpoint the leak and repair it.
A trial of the technology last year, when United Utilities installed 2,000 loggers in Liverpool and Manchester city centres, helped the company save up to five million litres of water a day.
Under the first phase of the latest project, 44,000 loggers will be installed across the North West this summer, at a cost of £14 million.
Kevin Fowlie, United Utilities' Network Delivery Director said: "We have one of the largest and oldest water supply networks in the UK and it's a constant battle to keep on top of leaks. Many leaks never show on the surface so it is a round-the-clock challenge to find and fix them.
"Following the extreme dry weather last year, we've seen leakage rates increase due to ground movement. We have doubled our leakage detection and repair resource to meet our leakage targets and now we need to go even further.
"Our customers have told us it is one of the issues most important to them so we have committed to a 20% reduction in leakage over the coming five-year investment period and that means using the latest innovations. By 2020, we will have the largest estate of acoustic logger technology in the world. Every quarter of a mile on our water network we will be able to glean real-time data, allowing us to respond faster and more accurately when a pipe begins to leak."

Mercure Brighton Seafront Hotel is undergoing a transformation of its 116 guest rooms and communal spaces. By the 25th April the refurbishment will be complete, and visitors to the hotel will be stunned by the dramatic changes made to one of the South's finest listed properties.
Led by a local Hove based interior designer, Helen Hooper, the redesign of the nineteenth century hotel encapsulates the perfect blend of exquisite Regency splendor, with a dash of quirky Brighton charm. As a listed building, no structural changes have been made, but the bespoke refurbishment has introduced modern décor throughout, with elements of Brighton's rich history seen in every room.
A colour palette of inky blues and welcoming whites has transformed the lounge and reception area. The bespoke carpet is set to make waves with visitors, as design inspiration was taken from the ripple effect of the tide going out from the sea – which is only a few yards away from the hotel's doorstep. The lounge has been transformed into an impressive gallery showcasing the finest creations from local artists, really putting Mercure at the heart of Brighton's buzzing art scene.
The updated cocktail bar and restaurant is unrecognisable with splashes of jewel colours sapphire, emerald, and amber adorning the walls. It's not just the furnishings that have been given an update, a new food and drink menu will also be launching that reflects the culinary delights that can be locally sourced in and around Brighton. Taste buds will tingle with diners choosing from many delicious options on the menu from the Chef's signature locally caught fish and chips, battered in Harveys Beer (brewed in Lewes), to the Brighton Deli Burger, made with Sussex Cheddar – for those with a sweet tooth finishing up with the signature Brighton Rock Knickerbocker Glory.
Visitors with a keen eye will notice that the bar front is the new home to pieces from the iconic West Pier, which were salvaged from the fire that destroyed it almost two decades ago. The restaurants ceiling has been restored to its original height of just over three meters, making it a decedent room to sit back relax and enjoy drinks, dinner or an indulgent afternoon tea.
Guests of Mercure will step into a seaside wonderland in the newly refurbished bedrooms. The new throws, curtains, carpets and bespoke furnishings provide a fresh and modern look. The 16 sea view rooms have been updated with a plush grey silk effect décor, beautiful glass and brass chandeliers and antique mirror glass on the desk and bedside tables.


With the confirmation process for his Supreme Court nominee in turmoil this week, President Donald Trump wants the public to know that he's awfully sad. But not about Brett Kavanaugh.
According to a new interview, Trump's despair remains squarely focused on Attorney General Jeff Sessions, who as the president tells it, has all but vacated his position.
"I don't have an Attorney General. It's very sad," Trump lamented to The Hill on Tuesday before suggesting that he initially hesitated to appoint Sessions to the post. The president's remarks appeared to cast Sessions as a confused elderly man who had suffered through his confirmation hearings.
The interview is the latest in a long series of public and private attacks against Sessions. Trump's ongoing anger was first prompted by Sessions' May 2017 decision to recuse himself from all matters concerning the Russia investigations after it became clear he failed to disclose his contacts with Russian officials during the campaign.


The first chart is a universal numbering system adopted by the American Dental Association; the most widely used by general dentists.
In lower teeth, numbering continues from the upper, begins at lower left third molar (wisdom tooth) as number 17 and ends at tooth #32, lower right third molar (wisdom tooth). See first chart above for easy understanding of the system.
This charting divides teeth into 4 quadrants with 8 teeth in each quadrant; using upper right and left central incisors and lower right and left central incisors as the dividers.

Thank you for your kind words! I do accept orders from other countries. But the language of the book will be in English.

Have regional parties delivered?
They have not offered an alternative path to development to reflect local aspirations
By Richard Mahapatra
Regional political parties are India's new electoral box offices. Analysts speculate they will be the key to government formation after the next general elections, so the two competing national parties—the Congress and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)—are cracking tough political equations to win over as many of them as possible. There are valid reasons for this. Since 1984 not a single national party has formed government on its own. The 1980s and '90s witnessed the electoral boom of regional political parties. Regional parties have been expanding both in number as well as in vote share.
In fact, the number of national parties has come down. In the first Lok Sabha election in 1952, of the 55 parties that contested 18 were regional parties. The number went up to 36 in the 2004 election. In the 1984 general election the regional parties got 11.2 per cent of the votes; in 2009, their share went up to 28.4 per cent. In the past 20 years the share of regional parties in total votes has consistently increased. For the next elections in 2014, analysts estimate regional parties will contest in 150-180 seats where the two national parties may not be significant players.
There is already a certainty in mainstream political dialogue that national parties have ceded space to regional parties. This, according to political pundits, is because the national parties have not been able to address regional "aspirations".
The big question, therefore, is: have the regional parties lived up to this "aspiration"? Much before the 1980s when the regional parties came to national prominence, they were dominant players in many states like Jammu and Kashmir, Punjab, Odisha and Tamil Nadu. India's long experiment with regional parties offers little evidence to suggest that regional parties performed differently than national parties. They may have fuelled regional pride but in terms of regional development their performance hardly differed from that of national parties. Rather, regional parties now adopt and implement policies of national parties more aggressively at the state level.
The rise of regional parties was sharp in the late 1980s and '90s when the country saw acute polarisation of voters in terms of socio-economic groups. During this period voters from the disadvantaged sections took greater part in voting. Many regional parties used this to carve out their political identity. They promised development and social and economic equity in face of economic liberalisation. Regional disparity was stark and livelihood crisis was severe at that point of time. So regional parties did emerge using developmental aspirations of millions of people.
More recently, regional parties have flagged off the issue of federalism prominently in the face of an overarching Central government. Political analysts call their emergence democratisation of politics, where the focus shifted from national parties to local ones, allowing local issues to be reflected in national agenda. This also created many regional leaders for the country that had got used to a couple of top leaders from national parties leading and giving identity to the country. One would assume, the political direction was right.
However, the change in political landscape notwithstanding, the regional parties don't have much to show in terms of redefining developmental policies that reflect regional aspirations. Whether it is relatively developed Tamil Nadu that elects regional parties for a long period or Odisha, India's poorest state with a regional party in power for more than a decade, they do not have different economic policies to boast. Rather, there is a rush to adopt economic liberalisation, a national economic policy initiated by the Congress and supported by the other national party, the BJP.
Take, for example, Chandrababu Naidu of the Telugu Desam Party, a key player in Andhra Pradesh. He could not evolve an alternative land and agricultural policy to fix regional disparity. It is the same with Odisha Chief Minister Navin Patnaik representing the Biju Janata Dal. Under his leadership there has not been much change in the lives of the poor. His aggressive industrialisation has led to further precipitation of regional disparity and livelihood crisis. Bihar's ruling regional party is no different. Chief Minister Nitish Kumar has been courting investments and high GDP growth. Except sporadic land distribution programmes for the poor, there is no concrete step in the direction of fulfilling regional aspirations.
It may be too early to rate regional parties' development performance. But it has been long enough to gauge a trend. And the trend is that regional parties are divorcing themselves from their assumed mandate of fulfilling local aspirations.

Legacy Mennonites and Anabaptist Camp Followers: a conversation
TimNFebruary 25, 2013Anabaptist Camp Followers, Emerging Church, Mennonite Church USA, New Monasticism, submergent
cross-posted from As of Yet Untitled
The other day I had a good conversation with Mark Van Steenwyk, a writer and activist who lives in the Mennonite Worker community in Minneapolis, Minn. The conversation brought me back to concept of Anabaptist camp followers (ACF's) that I first dealt with in December 2009, in Levi Miller, peace and justice and the Mennonite chattering class, a response to a piece by former Mennonite publish Levi Miller that took a jaded look at "peacenjustice" as a fading marketing ploy and coined the phrase Anabaptist camp followers. In the last paragraph of my article, I offered a challenge to Mennonites to welcome this generation's ACF's:
Today, we are seeing a new wave of "Anabaptist camp followers." As with the earlier wave, many of them come from evangelical backgrounds looking for the missing peace and justice. I've heard many first and second hand stories of young evangelicals walking into Mennonite churches longing for the whole gospel only to find a church doing its best to blend in with all the other Christian churches in town. Will we once again blame them as naive idealists and turn our back on them as we focus on keeping those inside the fold happy?
Since then, the importance of ACF's has become even clearer to me. I was part of the conversation that led to Widening the Circle: Experiments in Christian Discipleship, which is a conversation between ACF's who have been drawn to the Mennonite church over the past 50 years and cradle Mennonites drawn to radical discipleship. From California to Georgia, the book looks at the seeds that have grown when ACFs have interacted with the Mennonite church.

I talked with Joanna Shenk, editor of Widening the Circle. As someone who grew up with parents who were former Mennonite, she's embraced the Mennonite church as an adult, and so falls into both the ACF and cradle Mennonite camp. In an interview for this blog post, she said:
And I found that in many cases (but not all), my peers who had grown up Mennonite ("cradle" folks), weren't that energized by the theology that had given me so much hope. It was just old hat to them… or a reason to be arrogant toward other Christians. That was disappointing.
I think those new to Anabaptism and those who have been around it for awhile need each other as conversation partners–the potential is for all of us to be challenged to look at our faith and commitments in new ways. In what ways have some of us taken the tradition/theology for granted? In what ways have others of us idealized it? What does it mean to learn from the complicated history of Anabaptism and allow it to shape the church/us today? We need each other for those conversations.
Joanna is continuing the conversation through a Widening the Circle mini-series on the Iconocast. She'll be interviewing chapter authors about their journeys since contributing to Widening the Circle. Her questions include: What has changed? How has their thinking deepened around the themes they wrote about? What do they see happening in the discipleship community movement currently? What is taking shape in their community/organization? What have they let go?
I've also come to understand better how inhospitable Mennonites have been to ACF's. In November of 2011, I wrote here about the cool reception Vincent Harding received when he challenged Mennonites to become more involved in the civil rights movement. Mennonite leaders were dismissive of any responsibility to become involved:
Mennonite voluntary service director Edgar Stoesz compared the civil rights struggle to World War II, in which Mennonites didn't participate, but showed up afterwards to clean up. Mennonites "decline to participate in the interracial conflict but seek rather to bring reconciliation and goodwill."
Harding incisively named this clean-up-afterwards strategy as Mennonites commitment to being the rear light rather than the front light.
Leonide Begly talks with Mark Van Steenwyk at a workshop at Papa Festival in Tiskilway, Ilinois on June 21, 2008
This leads me back to my conversation with Mark. In the paper issue of The Mennonite JoannaShenk interviews Mark and he shares both affirmation and critiques of Mennonites. He names the dynamic in which cradle Mennonites make everyone else feel like forever outsiders:
I've met folks who have been Mennonites for decades who still feel like outsiders. We welcome folks with our words but often push them away with our actions and cultural hang-ups. To be a Mennonite, for me, means accepting the reality that I'll never be as Mennonite as other people.
In preparing this blog post, I asked Mark to share further thoughts about the relationship between ACF's and others in the Mennonite church:
Regarding what Mennonites can learn from ACF's … I think that newly emerging Anabaptists understand the points of tension between Anabaptist values and cultural trends. Legacy Mennonites, however, are still defined by the tensions of previous generations. For example, Vincent Harding understood the direct conflict between racism and Anabaptism in ways legacy Mennonites did not. They already determined that their role was to helpful stabilizers–because that is a role they had adopted over centuries.
Today, you can see this with younger radicals who see the violence of globalization, banking, sexism, heteronormativity, but Mennonites tend to be so focused on the predefined issues that they tend to be blind. The only reason homosexuality is an issue discussed by Mennonites is that it threatens unity, and is not seen–by many Mennonites–to be an issue of justice.
I look forward to the conversation between ACF's and cradle/legacy Mennonites continuing.
PAPA Festival was one such space for conversations between ACF's and Mennonites since it was hosted by a Mennonite community. For more of my photos and thoughts from that gathering, see my blog post from July 2008: PAPA Festival: A Report.

"Peacenjustice" is especially a "fading marketing ploy" when it crosses into advocacy of delegated government violence to effect "progressive" social change, which is where MCC finds itself today.
"…doing its best to blend in with all the other Christian churches in town…"
I think it's because the church has devolved into a Simulacrum of the whole FOX/CNN TV Culture, with a little Jesus icing.
Thank you for such a blunt yet truthful post.

Just for the record, "Mennonite camp follower" was coined by Stanley Hauerwas in a piece for this book in 2001.
TimN (Post author) March 13, 2013 at 12:47 pm
Greatneighbor, thanks, I didn't realize that. I guess Levi Miller just swapped in the "Anabaptist." It looks like Hauerwas first published that essay in Mennonite Quarterly Review in October 200: Confessions of a Mennonite Camp Follower. He gets huge bonus points in my book for opening up with a reference to the greatest forgotten Mennonite book of all time: The Mennonite Starter Kit: A Handy Guide for the New Mennonite

Q: How can i separate out date and time field from apache access logs? XX.XX.XX.XXX - - [22/Sep/2015:00:59:54 +0000] "POST /zabbix/jsrpc.php?output=json-rpc HTTP/1.1" 200 66 "http://XXX.XX.XX.XXX/zabbix/dashboard.php?sid=ca62d327b6afb561" "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:38.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/38.0"

This is my apache access log.
I want to parse this logs and want only date filed (not the time stamp) .
So How can i get 22/Sep/2015 this output ?

A: Using grep -oP (PCRE):
grep -oP '(?<=\[)\d+/[A-Z][a-z]+/\d+' access.log
22/Sep/2015

If your grep doesn't support -P then use sed:
sed -r 's~.*\[([0-9]+/[A-Z][a-z]+/[0-9]+).*~\1~' access.log
22/Sep/2015

Or on OSX:
sed -E 's~.*\[([0-9]+/[A-Z][a-z]+/[0-9]+).*~\1~' access.log
22/Sep/2015

Here we are, spinning along the broad autobalm - a six lane highway - at an entirely conservative speed - 45 mph., and we pass a sign which sez 30 mph - on this enormous speedway. My sabconscious notes it, and starts watching the rier-view mirror. Russell remarks it, and I guess that I'm psychic - can sense a cop miles away. (But it seems that the faculty is somewhat rusty --) and anyway, 30 mph this is a civilized country. Horses do better than that. Inconceivable. Then I note that a gray car which had passed, going the other way, is now going this way-a long way behind. SURELY THEY'RE NOT SERIOUS! I slow till I can count the grass blades passing. But no - we got a ticket. We plead and abase ourselves, but he clocked us from 1000 feet behind, and mercy was not in him. He told us that if the fine were not paid within 48 hours, a supponena would follow, but the fine would not be increased. (An interesting fact is that, to date the suppoena hasn't shown up, the we did proceed on Canada-wards. Leaving La., we were, as expected, in a sweet region of low-priced gasoline, and a postoffice, in Picayune, Miss., where Russell wrote back for everything he'd forgotten (more foul ups here!) Then to Hattiesburg - with 2 (two!) bookstores. The chase is on! Tally ho! Vandaveer's Road 25; Star of the Unborn, $1 - And romance! Eating lunch here, the waitress watched me constantly, and whenever I looked at her she smiled. I feared, and clung closely to Russell! What might not have happened, had I been alone! (Did I do it right, Boys) Thence thru the day, to Birminham, Ala., at night, which we found covered by a confusing (and maladorous) smog, and so didn't stop, but shoved thru to a camp on the other side. Discovered that Russell snores - the beast! Decided next morning not to turn back just to look at B'haven, and so on to Nashville, Tenn. It was Sunday, anyway. Obviously Lovecraft was wasting his time in New England. We saw at least a dozen churches of marvelous suitability for "The Haunter of the Dark," and hundreds of "Shunned Houses", splendid for obtaining models for Pickmave in, and which undoubtedly had super-rats in the walls. But, again, we saw nothing that looked like an enticing book-store neighborhood. We did see a small Valantian colony. Woral has a trailer and trailer-supply business thee, and also in Louisville, Ky., whee we arrived that night. (I banished that roaring Wampus to another room and so slept). Next day gave the burg a good going-over. Found several promising looking joints, but detected the malign influence of other fen - slim pickings. Russ got an "Atlantida", and I an "Aslogant and History of White Ben". Bookstore - dredgins sure is a lot of trouble, ain't it boys? Many weeks with nothing worthwhile, and only once or twice - a year a real find. Why do we keep it up? For that once-a-year event? Why, hell, yes. The sky's the limit then! Nest-ce-pas? So, somewhat dampened in spirits, northwards again. Pore over maps, argue, wrangle. "Yeah, I guess this is Covington we're coming to next." Then a little signboard swishes by wot sez "Silver Ave." Scre-ee-ee-eech! The Triumphant Chariot comes to a stop - even in the midst of that rough a tumble traffic there, and sails back and in.

Solar lanterns have helped Jambubati in running her business smoothly
Jambubati lives in a village of Khariar block of Nuapada district, Odisha, India. The village is at a distance of around 20 kilometers from the branch office of MSF, Milaap's field partner and is easily accessible by the road. Jambubati had availed the solar energy loan from MSF almost 2 months back. The village has been witnessing daily power cuts of 2 hours especially in the evening. In such a scenario solar lanterns has been the best option considering the expenses associated with the kerosene lanterns and their harmful effects on health and environment. Jambubati has been using the solar lantern at her kirana store which she runs after finishing her household work. Her husband is a teacher in a nearby government school. Jambubati has also availed a business loan from the partner to scale her business up. She enquired about the various loans that Milaap has been providing and is hoping to get enterprise loan soon. She expressed gratitude to Milaap and the field partner for helping her in getting the solar lanterns and providing capital for her business.

To say Baby Gray likes The Jumpy Place is a bit of an understatement. He always has such a blast. It is a safe place that is set up for little ones to be able to run, play, and be successful (of course, by run and play, I meant read a magazine or three).
I love that he is starting to branch out and become more independent while we're there. He got into some bounce houses on his own, he played with his friends, he turned it into a water park drank from the water fountain, and he even tried to order his own snack!
The lady who works there is always super sweet, and she is great with the kids. I'm so glad a place like this exists–I just wish I had thought of it!
Also, note to moms: apparently orange is the color to wear in order to spot your child. Let's all coordinate that again next visit.

Tomislav Neralić (Karlovac, 9. prosinca 1917. – Zagreb, 16. studenoga 2016.), hrvatski operni pjevač. Dopisni član Hrvatske akademije znanosti i umjetnosti.

Tomislav Neralić je šezdesetogodišnju karijeru s oko četiri tisuće nastupa u više od 150 opernih uloga i pedesetak koncertnih djela dijelio između Zagreba i Berlina, u čijoj je Njemačkoj (ranije Gradskoj) operi u angažmanu proveo četrdeset godina i dobio naslov komornog pjevača.

Debitirao je još kao student Muzičke akademije 1939. u Zagrebu kao Redovnik u Don Carlosu. Neralić je bio član Opere zagrebačkoga HNK od 1940. do 1943. te od 1948. do 1955. Od 1943. do 1947. bio je član Bečke državne opere. U svojemu se drugom angažmanu u Zagrebu od 1948. do 1955. razvio u snažnu glazbenoscensku osobnost. Nastup 1953. na premijeri Ukletog Holandeza odredio je njegovu budućnost kao jednog od najistaknutijih vagnerijanskih pjevača svojega vremena. Holandez ga je 1955. odveo u berlinski angažman i u svijet, uključujući milansku Scalu, u kojoj ga je pjevao s Birgit Nilsson. Zahvaljujući svojemu bas-baritonskom glasu velika opsega i golema volumena uz vrhunsku muzikalnost, blistavu memoriju, izvrsnu pjevačku tehniku i impresivan scenski izraz gradio je jednako uvjerljivo dramatske i komične likove. Među njima ističu se Wagnerov Hans Sachs, kojega je tumačio i na antologijskoj zagrebačkoj premijeri Majstora pjevača 1969. godine, i Verdijev Falstaff. U Zagrebu su nezaboravni i njegovi Jago u Otellu, Scarpia u Tosci, Mozartov Don Juan (opera se tada izvodila na hrvatskom), Niko Marinović na praizvedbi Brkanovićeva Ekvinocija 1950, u Rijeci barun Ochs u Kavaliru s ružom, na Splitskome ljetu Don Basilio u Seviljskom brijaču i Mefistofeles u Faustu, u Bečkoj državnoj operi u kojoj je bio angažiran od 1943. do 1947. Lindorf/Coppelius/Dapertutto/Dr. Miracle u Hoffmannovim pričama, u Berlinu i u svijetu kojim je prokrstario, Holandez i Wotan u Prstenu Nibelunga. Njegov posljednji intendant u Berlinu Götz Friedrich smatrao ga je pjevačem s najbogatijom karijerom u ansamblu, isticao je njegov siguran, pouzdan, savjestan i predan odnos prema radu i smatrao ga nekom vrsti patrijarha s nevjerojatnim pozitivnim utjecajem, autoritetom čija se riječ poštuje.

Njegov unuk je rukometni trener Nenad Kljajić, zlatni rukometni reprezentativac.

Q: Suppress/Override application.html.erb Is there any way to suppress the default js and css loaded by application.html.erb on a view by view basis? I'm finding it incredibly difficult to manage a global css and js includes configuration when certain views need different js libraries that for some reason seem to be conflicting with one another. For example, I might want jquery 1.3 for one view and 1.4.2 for another. I don't necessarily want to have to have an include for every view (I do want to have a global site-wide default), but I would also like to be able to override those for any view I want. Thanks!

A: # Renders the template for the action "long_goal" within the current controller,
# but with a custom layout
render :action => "long_goal", :layout => "spectacular"

See the documentation for render
So you could do this, for example:
def show
  respond_to do |wants|
    wants.html { render :action => 'show', :layout => 'other_layout' }
  end
end

But this is just a hacky bandaid. You should look into why the two versions of jQuery are conflicting.


According to the Connecticut Mirror, nuclear energy produces 63 percent of carbon-free energy in the U.S. and 97 percent in Connecticut. This above-average dependency allows Connecticut to continually meet its clean air goals, which are a part of the Obama Administration's Clean Power Plan that President Trump has been working to dismantle.
The Millstone Power Plant in Waterford is the only nuclear power generation site in Connecticut and the only multi-unit nuclear power plant in New England. For the last several years Dominion Resources, which owns and operates the plant, has intimated that it would close the facility, claiming that the cost to operate is now too high to profitably run it. This is an issue in recent years due to the increasing availability of less costly natural gas, although there is not enough public discussion about the real costs of cheap natural gas.
Dominion sought legislative solutions to this problem over a year ago, but this June a watered-down version of its original requests passed the state Senate.
The adopted Senate bill is a relief bill to help Millstone become more competitive given the abundance of affordable natural gas, which is also incorporated into the clean energy use calculation. Dominion did not claim that the failure to pass the bill would result in closure of the plant but did argue that such assistance is the only way to save Millstone. The House declined to vote, causing the bill to expire and die.
One of the biggest concerns with the proposed law is the lack of transparency surrounding Millstone. Dominion Resources is a private company that is not required to open its books to the state. But it is seeking taxpayer relief and asking the state to step in and create a more competitive and lucrative market for it without providing any evidence that state assistance is needed to keep Millstone operating. Clearly, before the state legislature adopts any law to boost Dominion's profits, taxpayers and customers deserve evidence that Millstone is on a trajectory to closure.
Dominion can close Millstone at any time. But it risks hefty fees if it does so before May 31, 2021, as a result of its obligation to ISO-New England, the non-profit that ensures energy flow in 6 New England states.
For Dominion, the fight is not over, it will continue pursuing legislation to prop it up, making it more competitive with natural gas in Connecticut. But until it provides proof that it is in danger of closure, taxpayers cannot be expected to pay for it. Keep your eyes and ears open because this nuclear nuisance is not over yet.

There are no benefits to me to join the ABJA.
The purpose of this Association shall be to promote the general welfare of its members, to encourage the highest standards of conduct among its members and in the profession at large, to promote the continuing education of its members, and to foster among its members a feeling of camaraderie and mutual confidence.
Obviously, one of the benefits is to be a member of an organization that cares about the profession and each other. At the annual conferences you will find sessions pertinent to your everyday responsibilities and meet people who perform the same work functions as you in very similar situations. We are also a great source of information when questions arise. See also: Why YOU should join the ABJA.
The annual fee of $30 is too much.
Almost any organization you could join would charge you more than $30 a year. Our dues have not increased in over 20 years.
If you are a CBA, perhaps your law firm/employer would pay the $30 for you to join a professional organization.
If I join the ABJA, I have to attend the annual conference.
You do not have to attend the annual conference to be a member. CBAs must provide proof of continuing education credit each year, and those credits can be easily acquired by attending the annual conference. However, attendance at the ABJA annual conference is not a requirement of members or associate members.
I can't afford to attend the annual conference.
If you are a CBA, your law firm/employer may help you with the travel and registration fee.
If you are a JA, your Court has a Chambers Training Fund. See the Guide to Judiciary Policy, Vol. 12, Chap. 11, Sec. 1125.10(b), and Vol. 19, Chap. 4, Sec. 420.40.10. Unfortunately, the Government is tightening the budget, and we don't know what lies ahead. Travel is expensive. You might decide to attend the conference every two years or so, or you might attend when it is held in a more convenient area of the country for you.
If I go to the annual conference, I won't know anyone and will be alone.
No one likes to feel like a loner in a room full of people. That's why we have a Mentor program. At your first annual conference, if you would like a Mentor, we will have someone to meet you, answer any questions you may have, and make your experience at the conference as pleasant as possible.
I would have to take the CBA exam to be a member of the ABJA and I might not pass it.
If you are a Judicial Assistant, you do not have to take the CBA exam to be a member of the ABJA.
If you do not work for a United States Bankruptcy Judge, you do have to take the CBA exam to be an associate member.
The CBA exam is offered every year immediately prior to the ABJA annual conference. There are four sections of the CBA exam, which include U. S. Bankruptcy Code and Rules, Ethics, Legal Research, and Grammar/Usage/Writing. You will receive full training for two days from qualified instructors, and then take the exams in the afternoon of each day. The exam itself consists of multiple choice, matching, and/or true/false questions.
A passing score of 70% is required. You can retake any sections you fail to pass within two years.
As scary as taking a test is, the instructors will cover everything you need to know to pass the test. More information on the CBA program is available on http://abja.org/content/certified-bankruptcy-assistants-cba-program.
If I joined the ABJA, I would be pressured to join a committee or expected to volunteer my time.
No one is pressured to do anything. You can sign up for a committee at the annual conference if you want to do so. You may be asked by a Committee Chair to join their committee, but you can always decline. Each year, the Nominations Committee asks for volunteers to run for Circuit Representatives or Officers. The incoming President for the year ahead selects the Committee Chairs. As with most organizations, most of the work is done by a small percentage of the members. We always appreciate volunteers, but you will not be made to feel uncomfortable if you cannot volunteer.
I already know enough to do my job to the satisfaction of my Judge/employer.
None of our positions are as secure as they may have been at one time, therefore, it is necessary to have as much knowledge as possible to be as indispensable as possible.
All the ABJA members and associate members are exceptionally smart, talented, and efficient.
This one happens to be true. See, you would fit right in.
I hope these myths have been busted for you. If you have any further questions, please contact laura_stevenson@flmb.uscourts.gov or 813-301-5190.
Original article by Becky Woodrum, ABJA President 2006-2007, now retired.


Asic - Who are the Munaafiqeen today?
Who are the Munaafiqeen today?
AM I A MUNAAFIQ (HYPOCRITE)??
The Sahaabah-e-Kiraam were always alert. They were suspicious of their own nafs, never trusting it. They always took stock of their deeds, hence they felt very strongly the slightest weakness which developed in them. They always feared the contamination of nifaq(hypocrisy). Whenever they discerned any adverse conflict in their internal and external conditions, they would suspect themselves of having become the victims of nifaaq.
therefore, is the recognition of one's own faults and weaknesses, so much so, that one fears for the safety of one's Imaan. The true believer feels that his condition is like that of the munaafiqeen. An uncaring and self-assured attitude and indifference to ones faults and defects are ingredients of a hypocritical condition.
Another sign of nifaaq is also given in the authentic narrations of Ahadeeth. That sign is: when the munaafiq disputes, he becomes abusive. A doubt arises at this juncture. These traits mentioned in regard to nifaaq sometimes are found in such Muslims whose Islam is beyond reproach.
In this first epoch of Islam the term, qurraa (reciters) referred to the Ulama. The explanation of this doubt is: Since these evils are the characteristics of nifaaq, their presence in one creates resemblance with the munaafiqeen. In having these evil traits which are the special features of nifaaq one will be simulating the munaafiqeen in character. Thus the Hadith: "He in who there exist four traits is a total Munaafiq", means that such a person has a very strong affinity and resemblance with the munaafiqeen. It does not mean that he is a munaafiq in the technical or actual sense - - a hidden kaafir.
ln short, hypocrisy produces moral degeneration, pursuit of ulterior and baneful motives, misappropriation of trust and renunciation of the Deen. When mans moral fibre is destroyed, his tongue becomes abusive and noxious and his actions despicable and abhorrent. When the attribute of amaanat is annihilated, plundered wealth seems wholesome. Khiyaanat (misappropriation) then seems adorable. Affliction with pernicious motives makes one unconcerned with the rights of others. A man suffering from baneful motives recognizes nothing but his own desires. His heart is devoid of love and pity for others. People detest him. This is always the fate which overtakes a selfish person. When indifference to the Deen sets in the heart, there remains no life in Salaat.
A Musim is never neglectful nor indolent in his Salaat which is among the Huqooq (Rights) of Allah Ta'ala. He always presents himself in the Musjid in humility, with respect and on time. No vestige of abuse, vulgarity, misbehaviour and futility will be found in him.
Eloquence of speech and ability in oratory, be it for the masses or for academic discourse, minus virtuous moral character and perfection of Imaan, are not desirable by the Shariah. Far from being considered laudable, the Shariah brands as a munaafiq an eloquent orator bereft of Islamic moral character and perfected Imaan.

Mobile use has been growing significantly in recent years and will certainly keep on this track. Consumers are watching online video on their mobile devices as one of their favorite forms of content.
And this takes us to the next point: video content, such as animated explainer videos, can help you turn your website mobile-friendly and ensure a great user experience. Let´s understand how videos adapt to this mobile-friendly trend and learn how you should use them on such a requested channel.
Animated video production for "KALA" by Yum Yum Videos.
Animated video production for "GIGTOWN" by Yum Yum Videos.
Optimizing video content for mobile devices will then be your only choice if you want to survive in this fast-paced and challenging business world.
So, if you´re thinking about developing an animated marketing video to approach your mobile audience, there are some considerations you should bear in mind to get the most out of it.
Don´t make your video too long. The number of users who watch videos from beginning to end start to decline for videos longer than 30 seconds and drop drastically for videos over 2 minutes. For an animated explainer video, for instance, at Yum Yum Videos we always recommend to aim for 90-second videos. However, for mobile devices maybe it´s better to go to a 30 or 60-second video.
Although almost every hosting site is responsive nowadays, not everyone offers the same benefits for your videos. YouTube and Vimeo, for instance, can work as a great "shop window to the world" to reach your audience, but at the same time you´ll have strong competitors. On the other side, services such as Wistia or Vidyard offer great additional video analytics and customizable players (for which you´ll have to pay extra fees) and don´t offer the same visibility as YouTube or Vimeo.
If you make it simple for your audience to share your mobile video, you´ll see great benefits, such as better CTRs and more conversions. Place your social media links right above or under your embedded video so it can be easily shared!
If you want to learn more about what mobile users look for in an animated marketing video, check out this article. Also, there are some questions you can ask yourself to check if your marketing video is mobile friendly. Read this blog post and learn more! You can also visit our Marketing Video Academy where you´ll find useful tips and information on explainer video production.


How often in life do we trust in our own strength instead of being led by the Holy Spirit within us? We say that we have faith and will put our trust in God, but how often do we actually live that out?
When you accepted Jesus into your heart as Lord and Saviour you didn't only receive God the Father and Jesus, but also the Comforter; the Holy Spirit who dwells in you. When you trust, act and move according to the way the Spirit leads, you will discover that it doesn't require force or strength to see God's plan worked out in your life. The times I feel the favour of God most are when I stop trying to force things and instead trust in Him.
The day I received my training contract to qualify as a solicitor I had walked into work and said to my friend, in faith: "Today is the start of my legal career." She laughed! However, I was offered the job that afternoon!
God doesn't want us to struggle or fight to obtain the blessings He has for us. He wants us to live out our faith, trusting that His promises are true. When our faith is pure and intentional God shows up.
Pause and reflect: Is there something you are praying and hoping for? Instead of worrying or pursuing it in your own strength, I encourage you to hand it over to God and allow His Spirit to guide you. Rest in His goodness today and know that His Spirit is at work within you. God is there in your situation.

Cecil Beaton, celebrated portrait and fashion photographer from the 1920s through the 1970s, remembered the revolutionary feeling in photography when female models were allowed to spread their feet apart—even a little. Prior etiquette demanded that the two feet touch. Times change. Here, Max Vadukul takes the viewer right into bed with Amy Winehouse on her wedding day. That she is clothed takes nothing away from the seduction. Rolling Stone ran the picture across two pages in its June 14, 2007, issue under the heading "The Diva and Her Demons." The photograph dramatizes the challenge of all stars of the twenty-first century: what do you reveal and what do you protect as you approach stardom?

In 1979, the artist Andy Earl, then twenty-four years old, represented Britain at the Venice Biennale (an international contemporary art exhibition).The year before, the impresario Malcolm McLaren, manager of the Sex Pistols, had seen Earl's blurred and haunting color photographs at the Photographers' Gallery in London. When McLaren wanted something striking and shocking for the cover of a new album by Bow Wow Wow, a group he represented, he remembered Earl's photography. Together they settled on a re-envisioning of the nineteenth-century French artist Edouard Manet's famous painting Le déjeuner sur l'herbe (The Luncheon on the Grass) of 1863. The male musicians, beautifully costumed by fashion designer Vivienne Westwood, were delicately arranged, and the naked teenaged lead singer, Annabella Lwin, carefully positioned. To McLaren's delight, the picture immediately became controversial: the underage rock star did not have her mother's permission to pose naked.

Michael Putland was the official photographer on some of the Rolling Stones' U.S. and European tours. He had access granted no other photographer and was able to stay in the "pit" for entire concerts while the other photographers were asked to leave after the first three songs. Putland laments the lack of discrimination in the press today when it comes to celebrity portraiture. "There is no premium for quality," he says. "I love photography, not the nonsense."
Who Shot Rock & Roll: A Photographic History, 1955 to the Present
October 30, 2009–January 31, 2010
Who Shot Rock & Roll is the first major museum exhibition on rock and roll to put photographers in the foreground, acknowledging their creative and collaborative role in the history of rock music. From its earliest days, rock and roll was captured in photographs that personalized, and frequently eroticized, the musicians, creating a visual identity for the genre. The photographers were handmaidens to the rock-and-roll revolution, and their images communicate the social and cultural transformations that rock has fostered since the1950s. The exhibition is in six sections: rare and revealing images taken behind the scenes; tender snapshots of young musicians at the beginnings of their careers; exhilarating photographs of live performances that display the energy, passion, style, and sex appeal of the band on stage; powerful images of the crowds and fans that are often evocative of historic paintings; portraits revealing the soul and creativity, rather than the surface and celebrity, of the musicians; and conceptual images and album covers highlighting the collaborative efforts between the image makers and the musicians.
Who Shot Rock & Roll: A Photographic History, 1955 to the Present is organized by the Brooklyn Museum with guest curator Gail Buckland.

Patria Investments Announces Infrastructure Fund III Reaches Performance Fee Realization Threshold
Jan 10, 2023 at 7:01 AM EST
GRAND CAYMAN, Cayman Islands, Jan. 10, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Patria Investments Limited ("Patria") (NASDAQ: PAX), a global alternative asset manager confirmed today that Patria Infrastructure Fund III (or "the Fund"), through divestment activity in 6 portfolio companies and additional portfolio cash flows, has reached its return of capital and performance hurdle necessary to monetize performance fees.
In December 2022, Patria announced definitive agreements for the divestment of ODATA, a Brazilian data center service provider, and partial divestment of Entrevias, a toll road operator in the state of Sao Paulo, which follows the sale of 4 additional portfolio companies in prior periods. The progress of this portfolio to date reflects Patria's commitment to investing across relevant Latin American infrastructure sectors to address structural bottlenecks and generate positive impact to the economy and population. It also illustrates the power of Patria's strategic approach to infrastructure investment in the region, demonstrating the ability to develop, de-risk and sell high-quality assets to global strategic players, and generate attractive returns for investors.
Combined with the addition of incremental portfolio cash flows in December, cumulative proceeds to the Fund's investors are expected to reach approximately $2.1 billion, surpassing the Fund's performance fee realization hurdle. Distributions from recent activity are expected to generate at least $15 million in net realized performance fees to be recognized in the fourth quarter of 2022.
Patria's Infrastructure Fund III is a $1.7 billion 2013 vintage fund which has invested in 10 portfolio companies. Based on valuations as of September 30, 2022, the Fund has achieved a gross multiple of invested capital (MOIC) of 2.1x and a net IRR of 13%, resulting in $127 million of Net Accrued Performance Fees. Following the recent activity, the Fund's remaining portfolio of 5 active investments is performing well and also positioned for divestment over the next few years.
About Patria Investments
Patria is a leading alternative investment firm focused on Latin America, with over 30 years of history, combined assets under management of $26.5 billion as of September 30, 2022, and a global presence with offices in 10 cities across 4 continents. Patria aims to provide consistent returns in attractive long-term investment opportunities that allow for portfolio diversification through its Private Equity, Infrastructure, Credit, Public Equities and Real Estate products. Through its investments Patria seeks to transform industries and untangle bottlenecks, generating attractive returns for its investors, while creating sustainable value for society.

Q: Recording perf files with symbols for analysis on a different system (cross architecture) I'm recording perf traces on an embedded target which I want to evaluate on a desktop host using hotspot. However, as far as I can tell this means the the desktop has to set up a complete sysroot for the embedded target to read the symbols correctly.
Is there a way to create stand-alone perf.data files or hotspot files that I can just send to people for evaluation without having to set up a sysroot? Heaptrack can do this, I wonder what the problem for perf would be.

A: Use perf archive.
[user@MachineA]$ perf record --debuginfod SomeCommand --some --arguments
# Creates `perf.data`, containing profiled data.

[user@MachineA]$ perf archive
# Creates `perf.data.tar.bz2`, containing object files and debug symbols.

[user@OtherMachine]$ mkdir ~/.debug

[user@OtherMachine]$ tar xvf perf.data.tar.bz2 -C ~/.debug

[user@OtherMachine]$ perf report
# Reads `perf.data`, using objects and symbols extracted from the archive.

If you pull in a lot of libraries, expect the archive to be proportionally large and possibly take a long time to create.

If perf archive isn't available for whatever reason, or if you'd like to modify the output format, you can try downloading and using the perf-archive.sh Bash script separately from the Linux source tree:

The 2018 Leinster Senior Hurling Championship is the 2018 installment of the annual Leinster Senior Hurling Championship organised by Leinster GAA.

This was the first year of a new format.

Galway won a second consecutive title and third ever by defeating Kilkenny in the final.

Format
A new provincial hurling championship featuring five-team round-robin groups in both Leinster and Munster and the new Joe McDonagh Cup was introduced in 2018 for an initial three-year period. The proposal was carried by a narrow margin with 62% voting in favour (a majority of at least 60% was required) at the GAA's Special Congress on 30 September 2017. The top two teams in each provincial group would contest the provincial final, with the provincial winners advancing to the All-Ireland semi-finals and the losing provincial finalists advancing to the two quarter-finals.

An amendment to the motion from Laois, Offaly and Meath was carried by 87%. The third-placed teams in Leinster and Munster would compete in All-Ireland preliminary quarter-finals against the two Joe McDonagh Cup finalists, with the Joe McDonagh Cup teams having home advantage.

If a non-Munster team were to win the Joe McDonagh Cup, the bottom team in the Leinster championship would be relegated to the following year's Joe McDonagh Cup and would be replaced in the following year's Leinster championship by the Joe McDonagh Cup winners. If a Munster team were to win the Joe McDonagh Cup, they would play off against the team who finished bottom in the Munster championship for the right to play in the following year's Munster championship, thereby ensuring that only Munster teams compete in the Munster championship.

The restructure of hurling involved the reduction of the Leinster championship from nine teams to five while the Munster championship continued with the previous five Munster teams (Kerry previously competed in the qualifier group of the Leinster championship). A six-team Joe McDonagh Cup was created, consisting of all four teams from the 2017 Leinster qualifier group plus Antrim and Carlow, the 2017 Christy Ring Cup finalists.

Teams
The Leinster championship was contested by four counties from the Irish province of Leinster, as well as one county from the Irish province of Connacht, where the sport is only capable of supporting one county team at this level.

THE NAMES / In Mutation / TWI 098
Names In Mutation is an archive CD featuring two side-projects by Belgian cold wave group The Names.
The first three tracks on the CD were originally released as a solo cassette single by guitarist Marc Deprez in April 1981. Somewhat in the style of The Durutti Column, the K7 was issued in a limited edition of just 100 copies with hand-coloured inserts. A video clip for Balade a Tervueren was also included on the Crepuscule compilation video Umbrellas in the Sun (TWI 099), filmed in the picturesque grounds of the Royal Central Africa Museum in Tervuren.
Tracks from Marc's cassette were also used as interval music on Crepuscule package tour Dialogue North-South in February 1982. On this tour The Names played as Names In Mutation, performing only the darker 'night' side of their acclaimed Swimming album, along with short instrumental Music for Someone and an absurdist introduction by emcee Wally van Middendorp (of Minny Pops). The set was recorded at the Beursschouwburg in Brussels on 3 February 1982.
The CD is packaged in a card wallet. Cover image by Jo Van de Vyver, courtesy of RMCA Tervueren. For further details click here
