The Orca S6 triathlon wetsuit is an ideal wetsuit for the swimmer looking for extra buoyancy. The Orca S6 is the entry-level option among Orca's competition-ready wetsuits and includes a number of features that can help you swim better.
Built from Yamamoto 39cell neoprene, the Orca S6 is able to be extremely flexible and supports a natural swimming motion. The neoprene in the Orca S6 wetsuit offers zero water absorption and zero weight variation, and a fine balance between buoyancy and flexibility.
The Orca S6 has 2 millimeter Yamamoto panels in the forearms, shoulders, and arms to maximize mobility and flexibility.
5 millimeter panels are used on the hips and legs to improve buoyance in the lower parts of the wetsuit to help you improve your swimming position. 3 millimeter thick panels cover the chest area to help improve comfort and to help prevent your body from rolling too much when turning to breathe.
The collar lining on the Orca S6 reduces friction at the neckline to help reduce chafing. The smooth material also feels better on the skin, making it more comfortable to the touch.
The Orca S6 triathlon wetsuit has a Super Composite Skin coating, also known as SCS, that reduces friction and helps increase speed. Its micro-cell structure repels water, improving hydrodynamics. Orca uses the most innovative version of Nano SCS that allows Orca wetsuits to ensure top speed in the water.
The Orca S6 also features an inner lining they call Infinity Skin. It was designed based on high-elasticity nylon that incorporates bamboo fibers, offering greater flexibility with each swim stroke. This cloth also maintains body heat longer, helps reduce odor and bacteria, and is made from eco-friendly materials to prevent skin irritation.
The Orca S6 triathlon wetsuit is available with and without sleeves, with the sleeveless version being a little less expensive than the full-sleeve option.
If you're looking for a dependable wetsuit that maximizes buoyancy and value, the Orca S6 was built for you.
The wetsuit's SCS coating reduces friction and helps increase speed. Its micro-cell structure repels water creating less drag.
The collar lining reduces friction and, therefore,chafing. The smooth material also feels better on the skin, making it more comfortable to the touch.
The S6 intends to correct your position, raising you as high as possible in the water. The 5mm thick neoprene used on the hips and legs helps your lowerr body to always stay on the surface. The 3mm thick chest panel avoids body roll wich is typical of an incorrect breathing technique.
The HydroLite and Yamamoto 39-cell panels located in the lower legs make your transitions faster. Taking your wetsui off is now easier than ever.
The S6 wetsuit is also available with and without sleeves, so you can choose what you like best.
The Orca S6 triathlon sleeveless wetsuit is an ideal wetsuit for the swimmer looking for extra buoyancy. The Orca S6 is the entry-level option among Orca's competition-ready wetsuits and includes a number of features that can help you swim better.
The Orca S6 Sleeveless women's triathlon wetsuit, like the S6 with sleeves, is designed for swimmers seeking extra buoyancy (in addition to thermal protection). That means the Orca S6 will put you in a better, faster swim position without compromising flexibility.


Attention public relations professionals: Do you hate yourself and get a kick out of receiving nonstop abuse from the press? Do you have experience putting out fires set by a CEO suffering from verbal pyromania? Do you have access to a reliable supply of Xanax? Then Ryanair has a job for you.
Ryanair is looking for a new Head of Communications as the current one, Stephen McNamara, steps down to join the Irish Rugby Football Union as their new tackling dummy Director of Communications.
Ryanair, Ireland's favourite airline, today (Dec 14th) announced that Stephen McNamara, after 4 years of being battered and abused by Michael O'Leary on one side and the European media on the other, has decided to pursue an easier life and will, in February next, join the IRFU as their Director of Communications. Stephen can expect to take far fewer hits working for Irish rugby than he does working for Ryanair. Having joined Ryanair four years ago as its Head of Communications, Stephen has played a leading role in the successful growth and development of the airline, which has now become the No.1 carrier in Spain, Italy, Poland and the UK, as well as the world's favourite airline, with 79.4m passengers in the current year.
Ryanair confirmed that it will now advertise for its Head of Communications vacancy, and see how many PR luvvies apply for what some in the media have described as "the worst job in PR". Working as Ryanair's Head of Communications has proven to be an incredible platform for previous incumbents being head hunted to become Director of Communications for Kellogg's, the FAI and now the IRFU. Perhaps the GAA or the Irish Olympic Committee will come looking for Ryanair's next Head of Communications?
For what it's worth, I think the job would actually be a lot of fun. After all, the only reason Ryanair gets the attention it does every time CEO Michael O'Leary opens his filterless mouth is that the airline is wildly successful. If nothing else, there's never a dull moment.
I've never flown Ryanair, but I think it's safe to say if it were as bad as its media reputation implies, about 78 million fewer people would have flown it in the past year. (The airline has transported 79 million passengers during the current fiscal year).
Ryanair today announced that they will be the launch customer for the Boeing 737 MAX 200. The European low-cost carrier placed an order for 100 of the new variant.

Alabama Power files plan for 2015 rate increase
Kim Chandler The Associated Press
MONTGOMERY | Alabama Power Co. rates will go up nearly 5 percent next year under a requested rate adjustment that will see a typical household electric bill rise by $6.78-a-month.
Alabama Power spokesman Michael Sznajderman said the changes reflect the company's increased costs, including money spent to overhaul coal-fired power plants to reduce air pollution.
"It is basically the increasing cost of doing business. We've held rates flat over a three-year period," Sznajderman said.
The power company filed for the adjustment Monday with the Alabama Public Service Commission. The utility is allowed to seek yearly adjustments to reflect changes in the cost of generating power. The higher rates will begin in January unless PSC staff object to the company's calculations.
The increase translates to a monthly increase of $6.78 for a typical residential customer using 1,000 kilowatt hours each month.
Sznajderman said the last increase was in 2011.
The new increase comes after a heralded 2013 rate formula change that lowered the company's range of profit. Company officials said at the time that it would put downward pressure on rates and two public service commissioners predicted savings for customers.
PSC President Twinkle Andress Cavanaugh said Tuesday that the increases are modest considering the company held rates flat for three years.
"Obviously, the cost of business has gone up," Cavanaugh said.
Sznajderman said bills would have risen more, but modestly so, without the 2013 formula change.
"We're thinking it would have been in the neighborhood of a $1 a month higher had the commission not reduced our allowable return," Sznajderman said.
However, he said it significantly reduced profit for Alabama Power shareholders.
Candace Williams, interim state director for AARP-Alabama, expressed concern over the rate increase.
"With many older Alabamians on fixed incomes, any rate increase can be very painful for them," she said.
The company filed for one base rate adjustment to reflect increases in general operational expenses. A second adjustment reflected money spent on environmental upgrades to comply with federal mandates to reduce toxic emissions from coal-fired energy plants. The base rate adjustment totals $181 million and the environmental compliance adjustment totals $75 million, Sznajderman said.
"In some cases we are adding controls to coal units that we are going to continue to use. In some cases we are converting some coal units to natural gas. There are all under a suite of environmental regulations that are predominantly tied to emissions related to coal," Sznajderman said.
He said the overhauls include installing pollution control devices at coal-fired units at the Gorgas plant in Walker County. A facility in Greene County is being converted to natural gas.
Sznajderman said Alabama Power prices will remain 10 percent below the national average and 2 percent below the regional average.
"Our price has been below the national average for decades," he said.

Does Your Career Path Include Being A Portfolio Manager, a Research Analyst, or a C-Level Executive? Then The Chartered Financial Analyst® Designation Is For You!
The Chartered Financial Analyst designation is one of the most respected and recognized investment designations in the world. Obtaining this credential will ensure you are on the right path to realizing your career goals (and making an excellent salary along the way).
The CFA, however, is also one of the most challenging designations to obtain. It is comprised of 3 levels, each with their own unique set of topics. Candidates must pass all 3 levels, and complete a required work term, in order to obtain the full designation. If you are considering becoming a CFA, take note that the latest report from the CFA Institute showed that candidates sitting for the Level 1 exam who did not work from recommended study materials had less than a 37% pass rate. That means more than 63% failed!
According to PayScale.com, Finance Majors with the CFA Designation Make $24,800 more than those who do not.
Passing the Level 1 is just the first step in a long road, but it is also one of the most prestigious items you can add to your resume right out of school. To boost your chances of passing the exam and getting your resume noticed, interested students should take a CFA Level 1 Review Course and Practice Tests. After successful completion of a Review Course, students should then register for the CFA Level 1 exam and take the test while still in school.
One of the most popular CFA Review Courses is offered by Wiley Efficient Learning.

An Elephant for Glasgow
Home → Current Features → An Elephant for Glasgow
An Elephant for Glasgow is a new public art work commissioned by House for an Art Lover. The 11 tonne, life size, Asian Elephant, was created by Scottish artist, Kenny Hunter and is now on display in Bellahouston Park.
The sculpture stands on the site of the 1938 Empire Exhibition and looks towards Govan and the Clyde, an area of great economic significance during the British Empire. The original clay model of the Elephant was created by Hunter during a residency at the ARTPARK Centre for Arts & Heritage in Bellahouston Park, during the summer of 2014.
The iron Elephant was created in response to links with Commonwealth countries in Asia and Africa where many Glasgow trains were deployed during the Empire. The sculpture was cast using scraps of iron from the Govan built locomotives which Hunter sourced in India and South Africa. In these countries, elephants were used as a form of transport and in some cases viewed as an animal of symbolic power.
The Elephant also functions as a symbol for Glasgow's role as a 'workshop of the world,' in particular to the often-overlooked human role and cost extolled in creating that output. The sculpture is on permanent display at the west side of the House for an Art Lover and is easily accessible to all visitors. Visitors are also invited to explore our wider collection of fantastic sculptures situated across the park.
A small maquette of the elephant can also be viewed in our newly developed Heritage Centre where visitors to the park can learn about the 1938 Empire exhibition and its impact on Glasgow. An Elephant for Glasgow has been generously supported by Weir Group, Glasgow City Council and the Malcolm Group.

Maybe you haven't seen them in awhile. Maybe you've been head-down in work / life and forgot to call or write. Maybe you just like sending obscenities through the mail. We've got you.
Check in with your friends, let them know you're thinking of them, and spill all that's new in your life with these pretty floral note cards, complete with a hint of snark.


Book Recommendation – Hello Korea !
We stopped at the foreigner new/used bookstore, What the Book, and I picked this up. And it's an absolute delight to read.
Not only does it give a lot of Korean Expressions, but also linguistic insights and historical /cultural background through folk myths, Confuscian philosophy, folk practices, and recent politics. I'd heard some of this before, but a lot of it was new and it's presented in a really accessible way.
It's a great glimpse into the world's most rigid Confuscian society and the many ways people have coped with its demands, as well as being constantly under seige by foreign countries.
Some of the expressions are really humorous. Some are kind of heartbreaking. And mostly they feel very familiar. You can't help but feel more warmth and empathy for the Korean people. It's a great way to temper some of those daily frustrations you have when they say or do something incomprehensible.
This boring cover actually hides a real gem. Inside, in alphabetical order, are listed words that embody a cultural cue. For each word listed, the author gives historical or contextual background, as well as how the word is utilized and what kind of impact the concepts behind these words can have on your relationships with Koreans.
Designed with businessmen in mind to avoid cultural faux pas and have savvier business interactions, it is also a great reference if you just want to understand this complex society and increase your empathy.
Another not very exciting cover, but with great information inside.
Along with looking at the actual mechanics of the language with a microscope, Roadmap to Korean also explores the history of its inception, as well as the stumbling blocks and cultural clashes which you can avoid.
Hey can you post the ISBN numbers of these books?

Who is Mary Queen of Scots? Everything you need to know about his short reign and his death
By Jeffrey M. Johnson Last updated Dec 9, 2021
She is Scotland's most famous queen and has appeared in everything from theater to movies to Ru Paul's Drag Race, but what do you really know about Mary Queen of Scots?
Known as Mary Stuart or Mary I of Scotland, she left a lasting impression on the country she ruled, even though her short reign was filled with wars, turmoil and ultimately tragedy.
Today, December 8th, marks her birthday and what better way to celebrate than to learn more about Scotland's most interesting queen.
The only surviving child of King James V, she spent much of her youth in France and was imprisoned later in her life by her cousin Queen Elizabeth I who considered her a rival to her crown.
From becoming Queen of Scots at the age of six days to her untimely death at the hands of Elizabeth, here's everything you need to know about Mary Queen of Scots.
Scotland's best stories now this week
Born December 8, 1542, in Linlithgow Palace, Mary was only six days old when her father James V died.
Too young to rule, she instead spent much of her childhood in France, arriving there in 1548, with others taking over Scotland in her place.
This was due to the lingering rivalry between Scotland and England, with Mary originally intended to be married to the son of English King Henry VIII, Prince Edward, but after the Scottish court ruled that was not would not happen, it led to a series of aggressive measures on the part of England. , which would become known as "Rough Wooing".
After the Scots were defeated at the Battle of Pinkie, it was decided that she should instead marry the Dauphin, the young French prince, to cement an alliance between France and Scotland against England.
However, after the death of the teenage Dauphin, the newly widowed Mary returned to Scotland and arrived at Leith in Edinburgh in 1561.
Due to the fact that she was a woman seeking to return to rule in Scotland, the Royal Court quickly sought to marry her.
After falling for their half-cousin Henry, Lord Darnley, the couple soon married at Holyrood Palace.
However, due to both being Catholic and a growing religious division with Protestants at the time, the marriage did not go well with many Scottish lords.
Following a notable uprising known as the Chaseabout Raid, in which several members of the Protestant nobility led by the Earl of Moray failed in an attempt to overthrow Mary, things between Mary and Lord Darnley became tense .
Not content with his position as consort king, he pushed to become Mary's equal in a standing position, but was refused by Mary.
In a fit of rage and jealousy, he plotted to assassinate Mary's secretary and close confidant David Rizzio in front of his pregnant wife soon after at Holyrood House.
The strength of her reign was further strained after she baptized her son, the future King James VI of Scotland and I of England, a Catholic at Stirling Castle.

Darnley's death
After Rizzio's murder their marriage began to fall apart, Lord Darnley was finally killed under mysterious circumstances with his home in Edinburgh destroyed by an explosion and Darnley's body was later discovered in the garden.
Strangely, it seemed like he had succumbed to the suffocation rather than the explosion itself.
Second marriage
Incredibly, one of the people accused of her murder later became the next to marry Mary. James Hepburn, Earl of Bothwell, was due to stand trial for Darnley's murder before the trial failed.
Already having a close relationship with the Queen, Bothwell conspired to marry her.
The marriage itself was deeply troubled by Protestant Bothwell angering Catholic nobility and many others were shocked as Mary married the man accused of murdering her first husband.
This led to her being imprisoned in Leven Castle by those who were angry with her marriage, it was here that she miscarried the twins she had conceived with Bothwell.
Bothwell instead fled and later died in Denmark.
Escape and Battle of Langside
After the owner of the castle took pity on the queen, she managed to escape and gathered a small army of followers to her side.
From there, she marched south to Glasgow, where she clashed with the Earl of Moray, suffering defeat at the hands of the much smaller Protestant force.
Seeking refuge with her cousin, the English Queen Elizabeth I, Mary fled to England while her supporters continued to fight on her behalf in Scotland.
Hoping that Elizabeth would help her restore her to the throne, Mary pleaded for her help.
Instead, Mary was moved from the English Castle to the English Castle, owned by Elizabeth for 19 years.
A number of plots involving the Scottish Queen ultimately led Elizabeth to believe that her cousin intended to assassinate her and replace her.
In 1587 she was taken to Fotheringhay Castle where she was executed by beheading. In a macabre spectacle, the executioner took two swings to remove his head.
After lifting it by the hair, the executioner then found himself holding only a wig as the head fell to the ground.
After death
The tomb and the white marble effigy of Mary, Queen of Scots
Initially buried in Peterborough Cathedral, when his son James united the crowns of England and Scotland in 1603, he began making efforts to move her to a more honorable resting place.
In 1612 he ordered his body to be exhumed and reburied at Westminster Abbey.

Thread: Should I change primers?
I've noticed the regular large rifle primers really getting hammered in my sporterized swede 50 cal rolling block rifles. I'm pretty sure it is the protrusion length and possibly the shape of the firing pin. Also it might be that the original primers that were used in these old military rolling blocks had a very different type of metal and a thicker/harder material. I haven't had any pierced primers yet, but I would like very much not to have one in the future either. I have been thinking of trying some of the CCI #34 primers I have that I use in the sks ammo. Anyone else come across this type of issue, and if so what did you do?
If the primers aren't getting pierced, I wouldn't be too concerned. My Trapdoor puts a real divot in primers, no problems.
I'll have to see if I still have any cases that I have not already de primed and take a image of it to post. It is a real as you say divot.
why not shorten the pin?
CCI #34s are supposed to be a little thicker. If its handy, try 'em.
I use them loading for a M1A. Compared to others, they do seem a little tougher and show less pressure signs.
Thanks for all the suggestions. I'll try the #34's first, and then I will see about regrinding the pin, wouldn't want to grind it too short, it's not like you find these firing pins at your local gun shop if you screw it up.
Anyway you can lighten or swap out [for a lighter one] the mainspring? I wouldn't mess with the firing pin. If its a flat spring you might add a piece of thick leather between the spring and frame at the screw and leave the screw a little loose. Change the angle of the spring in relation to the lower tang to make it flex differently and it should have less umph which should put less umph to the hammer. Of course those big hammers on rolling blocks [had a couple] aren't 1911 hammers.

More likely your issue is from the old black-powder firing pin -- large firing pin hole, large firing pin, enough pressure to push some primer material back into the pin hole. All this makes a rasty-looking primer. Remington primers are also made of tougher stuff: I have an old Sharps-Borchardt/22 hornet for which I use the Rem 71/2 primer for its toughness to avoid pierced primers.
Oh yeah, I shortened the firing pin in the rifle before I figured out it was not the length of the pin that was getting me, it was the diameter of the firing pin hole. Fortunately I still have enough pin left to get the job done, but shortening the pin didn't help one single bit.
Is it just that the divot seems to be deep? Any cratering? Measure the positive firing pin protrusion. Positive protrusion is how far the firing pin sticks out when the hammer is fully forward. It should be no more than .050". Don't go grinding on the firing pin. You'll shorten it too much and ruin it. If it is too long you'll want to shorten it using a file. Determine how much length you need to remove and take a few file strokes at a time, checking length. Once you get it close to size, within .003" or so, round the corners to form the dome shape and finalize the size.
My opinion, you haven't experienced any pierced primers, you'll probably find the firing pin is the proper length. This is a low pressure cartridge? Higher pressures generally lead to flatter primer dimples.

Mohali: Nigerian woman held with one kg heroin
The AIG said that Uzoma came to India three years ago on a tourist visa and she started a business of readymade garments in Tripura, Delhi and Noida.

THE ANTI-DRUG Special Task Force (STF) of Punjab Police arrested a Nigerian woman and recovered 1 kg heroin from her on Sunday. The woman came to Mohali to deliver the drugs to her clients. The international market value of the recovered drug is said to be around Rs 1 crore. The woman was produced in the court of a duty magistrate and remanded in two-day police custody.
STF Assistant Inspector General of Police (IGP) Harpreet Singh said that the woman was identified as Joy Chika Uzoma and she was living in Noida. The AIG said that Uzoma came to Mohali to give the delivery of heroin to one of her clients and the STF got wind of her movement and laid a trap.
"She was arrested from Nature Park (public park) in Phase IX when she was waiting for her client. A STF team led by Sub-Inspector Ram Darshan went to the park and on checking, the team found that Uzoma was carrying 1 kg heroin," the AIG said.
The AIG said that Uzoma came to India three years ago on a tourist visa and she started a business of readymade garments in Tripura, Delhi and Noida. Uzoma also started supplying drugs in Chandigarh and Mohali areas after coming in contact with Nigerian drug peddlers.
An STF official who arrested Uzoma told Chandigarh Newsline that the accused used to bring heroin in a fruit basket and she used to travel mostly in public transport. The STF is yet to recover Uzoma's passport to know whether her visa had expired. The official also added that the recovered heroin is worth around Rs 1 crore. "During the interrogation Uzoma told us that she used to place the heroin at the bottom of the basket and then cover it with a silver foil. Then she would place fruits over it to make it look like a fruit basket," the official said.
Uzoma was booked under sections 21, 61 and 85 of the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act (NDPS) and Section 14 of the Foreigner's Act at STF's police station in Phase IV. This is the third arrest of a Nigerian national with heroin in a span of less than one month. On April 19, the STF arrested a Nigerian couple with 50 gm cocaine and Rs 40,000 drug money from Sector 78 in the city.

Operations Specialist Seaman Anief Haughton, 22, a 2011 graduate of Verbum Dei High School, was capped a master helmsman by Capt. Greg Fenton, George Washington's commanding officer.
"As a master helmsman, I man the helm for sea and anchor details, replenishments-at-sea, restricted waters, or when pulling in and out of a port," said Haughton.
Haughton is one of only four master helmsmen on the ship of 5,000 Sailors who are entrusted to steer the carrier in restricted maneuvering evolutions during George Washington's patrol. The other three are Gunner's Mate Seaman Adrienne Magill, 22, from Huntsville, Ala., Boatswain's Mate 3rd Class Bruce Medeiros, 23, from Bristol, R.I., and Boatswain's Mate 3rd Class Donte Thomas, 24, from Westwego, La.
"When I started in deck department, I wanted to become a master helmsman in order to distinguish myself from my peers," said Haughton. "It takes a lot of time and effort to get this qualification, and it is a qualification I was determined to get."
After joining the Navy out of high school, Haughton enlisted as an undesignated seaman where he began his year-long qualifications that he continued when he struck for operations specialist.
"Not including the basic helm qualifications, it took about 50-60 hours of being on the bridge during restricted maneuvering evolutions to become a master helmsman," said Haughton.
Although other deck seamen and quartermasters man the wheel on a 24-hour rotation, a greater skill is required when maneuvering close to land or coming alongside other vessels at 180 feet distances.
"My step father was in the Air Force and he was an influence for me to join the Navy, but I would have to say that I owe a lot of my success in becoming a master helmsman to my instructor, Medeiros," said Haughton.
Medeiros, another master helmsman aboard George Washington, takes pride in Haughton and others he has instructed.
"After all that I taught him, I love to see him teaching others as well," said Medeiros. "It shows that he has a thorough knowledge of what he does in every situation behind the wheel."
By becoming a master helmsman, Haughton takes up the task to steer the ship for his captain. He has earned the confidence of his command and the trust that if anything were to happen, George Washington's helm is in good hands.

PM Lee says M'sian PM assures that flow of goods, food supplies and cargo between the two countries will continue
in Current Affairs
The Causeway from above, 2017. (Image by PM Lee Hsien Loong / Facebook)
After the announcement of Movement Control Order in Malaysia, many were concerned about the goods and supplies in Singapore, as well as the Malaysian workers who commute to Singapore daily.
Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong posted a Facebook post today (17 March) to address this particular matter. Mr Lee mentioned that he had a phone call with Malaysia's Prime Minister, Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin, today assuring that the flow of cargo and goods (including food supplies) between Singapore and Malaysia will resume.
He wrote, "I told him that I understood the reasons why he had made this move, and wished Malaysia success in containing the outbreak. I was happy to hear his reassurance that the flow of goods and cargo between Singapore and Malaysia, including food supplies, would continue."
Mr Lee went on to say that Malaysians who live in Johor but go to work in Singapore will be required to follow the Movement Control Order and refrain from travelling outside of the country, including Singapore.
Although this may sound worrying to the workers, Mr Lee reassured that the government is working on arrangements with Singaporean companies to help these Malaysian workers stay in Singapore temporarily. This particular arrangement will only be carried out if the Malaysian workers are willing to do so.
As a response to the Movement Control Order which affects the traffic between Singapore and Malaysia, Mr Lee also said that both governments already appointed Senior Ministers on both sides—SM Teo Chee Hean and Dato' Sri Ismail Sabri—to coordinate responses to the COVID-19 outbreak, "particularly on measures where we can work together, or where the actions of one country will affect the other".
"They are already in touch, but it may take a couple of days for arrangements to be worked out and to settle down," he added.
Additionally, Mr Lee said glad to see that there is no sign of hoarding despite long queues in supermarkets. He mentioned that people are purchasing only the items they need and that Singaporeans are calm, united and resilient as the government is working towards solving the problems.
To finish off his statement, Mr Lee said that there is no need to worry as the government has plans in place to cope for such an eventuality.

HONOLULU (KHON2) – After several days of technical difficulties, the telephone system for TheHandi-Van is back up and running.
However, the phone system for TheBus, while operational, isn't quite back to normal.
"Call volumes are still high, but declining from Tuesday's level. The main Customer Service phone number for TheBus (848-5555) is still not working, but a recording is informing callers to use 768-9880 instead. To access the HEA System by voice phone, customers may call 852-6000.
Technical difficulties for both began late Monday, which impacted the scheduling of TheHandi-Van appointments.
The city's Department of Information Technology and Oahu Transit Services information technology staff worked to resolve the problem as quickly as possible.


Just when you thought it couldn't get any worse, ConservativeBase.com has learned that a Russian made rocket motor, known as the RD-180, is actually powering the first stage of the Atlas 5 rocket, which is used by the National Reconnaissance Office and the Department of Defense to support national defense missions and launch satellites into space.
The RD-180 main engine is designed and manufactured by the Russian company NPO Energomash. NPO Energomash is eighty-six percent owned by the Russian Government and maintains ties with the Russian Military.
Thus, while thug and ex-KGB agent Vladimir Putin has moved into Crimea and is threatening elsewhere, the incompetence in the United States Government has allowed for the purchase of a Russian made rocket motor to be used on one of its key national defense assets. Once again, the US Government sends all the wrong signals to our friends and foes alike.
The US Government should take immediate steps to limit our dependence on Russian suppliers by using existing US launch providers currently excluded from competing to support national security space launch missions. Further, conservatives in the US Congress should have the guts to launch an investigation into how this all came about.
ConservativeBase.com urges grassroots conservatives across America to contact their representatives now and urge immediate action and a stop to this foolishness.

Q: Free application or script to monitor App pool memory usage I want an application or script that displays the following:
Worker process, App pool name, memory usage, and optionally cpu usage.
I am familiar with using

%windir%\system32\inetsrv\appcmd.exe list wp

but this just gets me the workerproces id and the app pool name. I then take that and cross reference taskmanager. This works, but I would like a quicker - almost dashboard like display of the information. I imagine there must be some sort of solution that shows the information without needing to click around like process explorer. Anyone have something in particular they use? Would this be possible in powershell?

A: If you don't have IIS 7 and the provider, you can use WMI.  The attached script works for most of your requirements, except CPU usage.  Save the below script as get-webserverapppoolstats.ps1 (or whatever you want).
You can run the script then with:
./Get-WebServerAppPoolStats.ps1 'Server1', 'Server2', 'Server3' -IntegratedAuthentication
OR
Get-Content servers.txt | ./Get-WebServerAppPoolStats.ps1 -IntegratedAuthentication
param (
    $webserver = $null,
    $username,
    $password,
    [switch]$IntegratedAuthentication)

BEGIN
{
    $path = $MyInvocation.MyCommand.Path

    if ($webserver -ne $null)
    {
        if ($IntegratedAuthentication)
        {
            $webserver | &$path -IntegratedAuthentication
        }
        else
        {
            $webserver | &$path -username $username -password $password
        }
    }
    $OFS = ', '
    $Fields = 'CommandLine', 'Name', 'CreationDate', 'ProcessID', 'WorkingSetSize', 'ThreadCount', 'PageFileUsage', 'PageFaults'

    $query = @"
    Select $fields
    From Win32_Process
    Where name = 'w3wp.exe'
"@

    $AppPool =  @{Name='Application Pool';Expression={($_.commandline).split(' ')[-1]}}
    $Process = @{Name='Process';Expression={$_.name}}
    $RunningSince = @{Name='Running since';Expression={[System.Management.ManagementDateTimeconverter]::ToDateTime($_.creationdate)}}
    $Memory = @{Name='Memory Used';Expression={'{0:#,#}' -f $_.WorkingSetSize}}
    $Threads = @{Name='Thread Count';Expression={$_.threadcount}}
    $PageFile = @{Name='Page File Size';Expression={'{0:#,#}' -f $_.pagefileusage}}
    $PageFaults = @{Name='Page Faults';Expression={'{0:#,#}' -f $_.pagefaults}}
}

PROCESS
{
    $server = $_

    if ($server -ne $null)
    {
        if ($IntegratedAuthentication)
        {
            $result = Get-WmiObject -Query $query -ComputerName $server
        }
        else
        {
            $securepassword = ConvertTo-SecureString $password -AsPlainText -Force
            $cred = New-Object System.Management.Automation.PSCredential -ArgumentList $username, $securepassword

            $result = Get-WmiObject -Query $query -ComputerName $server -Credential $cred

        }
        $Server = @{Name='Server';Expression={$server}}
        $result | Select-Object $Server, $AppPool, $Process, $RunningSince, $Memory, $Threads, $PageFile, $pageFaults
    }
}

A: Yes powershell can do this with the new powershell provider for IIS it's easy.  Here are some of the examples from the run time data walkthru's provided:
AppPool State
PS IIS:\> cd AppPools
PS IIS:\AppPools> Get-WebItemState DemoAppPool
Started
PS IIS:\AppPools> Stop-WebItem DemoAppPool
PS IIS:\AppPools> Get-WebItemState DemoAppPool
Stopped

Worker Processes and Requests
The get-process cmdlet doesn't help you figuring out which Application Pool a particular worker process is serving. This can be easily done however:
PS IIS:\AppPools> dir DefaultAppPool\WorkerProcesses

               processId                  Handles                    state StartTime
               ---------                  -------
                   6612                      326                        1 3/28/2008 12:20:27 PM

note that once you have the PID regular
   get-process -id pid

will tell you the memory usage

A: I dont know why the Server 'name' part of this script didn't work for me, but i came up with a workaround:
replace this line:
$Server = @{Name='Server';Expression={$server}}
with these two lines:
$machine = New-Object system.string $server
$Server = @{Name='Server';Expression={$machine}}
once i did this, it worked perfectly.

Man Ray By Neil Baldwin
by Neil Baldwin
Man Ray died in 1976, one of the last to go of that extraordinary Modernist generation. His wife, Juliet Man Ray, has given Neil Baldwin unprecedented access to letters, manuscript and archives that has enabled him to write the first full biography of this most elusive of artists.
Man Ray Summary
Of all the figures of the Dadaist and Surrealist movements, Man Ray was the most enigmatic. He knew them all, he took their pictures, he contributed to their shows. Yet he maintained a distance from the antics, even the outrages, of people like Tristan Tzara and Salvador Dali. Arriving in Paris at the age of 30 in 1921 from New York, Man Ray quickly became enmeshed in the life of Europe's first city of the arts. By the Thirties, he was a highly sought-after fashion photographer. He attached nails to an iron and called it "Gift"; he invented "rayographs". He came to know and photograph virtually every important figure in the arts on both sides of the Atlantic: James Joyce, Pablo Picasso, Coco Chanel, Jean Cocteau, Max Ernst. And then there were his turbulent affairs with celebrated "femmes fatales" of the day: Kiki of Montparnasse and the beautiful American photographer Lee Miller. He died in 1976, one of the last to go of that extraordinary Modernist generation. His wife, Juliet Man Ray, has given Neil Baldwin unprecedented access to letters, manuscript and archives that has enabled him to write the first full biography of this most elusive of artists. Neil Baldwin is a poet, critic and journalist. He is the author of "To all Gentleness", a biography of William Carlos Williams.

'Donald Blair OAM,' a brilliant new eight-part jig by R.S. MacDonald
R.S. MacDonald
Roderick S. "R.S." MacDonald is one of the greatest composers of Highland bagpipe music ever, and pipes|drums is pleased to bring readers another exclusive composition debut: "Donald Blair OAM."
The prodigious eight-part jig features MacDonald's trademark creativity, with alternating endings, irregular construction and even a surprise time-signature change as the second timing to the final part.
Donald Blair playing his son Murray's Digital Chanter.
The tune is named for bagpipe innovator Murray Blair's 82-year-old father, who was awarded the Medal of the Order of Australia (OAM) in 2018 for his service to the community and to pipe bands. The elder Blair was inducted into the Pipe Bands Australia Hall of Fame that same year, one of 12 inaugural honourees.
Donald Blair has taught hundreds of pipers throughout his life, committing nearly 30 hours a week to teaching. Beginning in 1982, he served as pipe-major of Warrnambool & District, near Melbourne.
Several of R.S. MacDonald's compositions are already modern classics: "Good Drying," "The Trip to Ballymena," and "The College of Piping at Summerside, PEI" are heard regularly live and on recordings. His 2009 music book – The Collection – is one of the best published in the last 50 years. His solo recording, Good Drying, of 2003, is a tour de force of creativity.
R.S. is originally from Inverness, Scotland, and is the son of the great William MacDonald, Benbecula. Not really thought of as a competitor (he stopped competing when he was 21), he has nonetheless made his mark as a composer and a player of the highest order.
Click for the full pdf score of 'Donald Blair OAM' by R.S. MacDonald.
At age 26, he moved to London, and later moved to Osaka, Japan, in 2000, and in 2003 to Queensland, Australia, where he is was pipe-major of the Queensland Police Pipes & Drums until only recently. He's now back in Osaka.

Film Review: Inferno (1980)
Inferno (Review)
Italy/1980
Format Viewed For Review: Shudder
Netflix Streaming: Yes
Amazon Prime: No
*A 31 Days of Halloween Special Review!
"...one of those rare horror films with immersive atmosphere, an attractive style, genuine horror, and an engaging story."
An American college student in Rome returns to New York after receiving an ominous letter from his sister...
Inferno is a sequel to Suspiria—but you actually don't have to watch Suspiria to understand this film. The plot follows siblings Mark Elliot (Leigh McCloskey), who is studying Musicology in Rome, and Rose Elliot (Irene Miracle), a poet living in New York. Rose discovers a book about the Three Mothers—three evil sisters who live in different buildings around the world, controlling everything through sorrow, tears, and darkness. Rose is convinced she lives in one of those buildings. Terrified, she asks her brother to visit her home. So, Mark drops everything and goes to New York. But, now his sister is missing. So, he decides to continue Rose's investigation. It leads to an interesting ending. It worked, but the costume design kind of throws it off.
Inferno is a great film, though. The plot is engaging and creative. The elements of mystery and the fascinating lore, for want of a better word, kept me glued to my seat. There are some dull moments in the film, though. These moments are either unnecessarily slow or dragged out. This causes the film to lose momentum at times. Story issues aside, Inferno works well as a horror film. It's stylish, violent, and atmospheric. There's a scene I love where the power in an apartment goes on and off, creating an excellent blend of style and suspense. If you like Argento films, especially those from his prime years, I think you'll like this one.
The acting isn't great, but it's good enough. Leigh McCloskey is often stiff and robotic, but he's not bad. He could use more emotion, but I've seen worse. Irene Miracle was good. In fact, I think most of the supporting cast was solid. The cinematography and camerawork are great. I love the lighting in Argento films—red and blue are beautiful. The music was great, too. The film was written and directed by Dario Argento. Although there are some pacing and filler issues, Argento knew how to craft an effective and beautiful horror film. This may not be his best work, but it's still a great piece of horror cinema.
Overall, Inferno is a very good movie. It has a few issues—the pacing, the filler, the acting—but it's not a bad film. It's one of those rare horror films with immersive atmosphere, an attractive style, genuine horror, and an engaging story. It goes far beyond your typical ghost story and that should be applauded.
Parental Guide: Strong violence and blood, brief nudity.

Eilke Blijham, daughter of Arend Geerts Blijham and Fokje Hindriks Bontekoe, was born on April 9, 1845 in Achterdiep and died on October 11, 1878 in Borgercompagnie at the age of 33. She married Jan Knapper, son of Jan Gerrits Knapper and Frouwke Jans Veentjer, on June 29, 1878 in Muntendam. He was born on March 26, 1850 in Noordbroek and died on June 19, 1934 in Veendam at the age of 84.


Three cleaning workers, employed at a school in the village of Kinsley near Wakefield, England, remain on strike in a dispute over pay. They have been on strike since the beginning of September.
The women, Lesley Leak, Marice Hall and Karen McGee, have a total of 30 years' service at the primary school. Wakefield District Council had run the school, but last year it became an academy and is now run by the Wakefield City Academy Trust, which controls over 20 schools, mainly in West and South Yorkshire.
C&D cleaning is refusing to adhere to TUPE (Transfer of Undertakings Protection of Employment) regulations, which normally cover contracts being transferred from public sector to private sector employment, protecting pay and conditions for a limited period. The company denies it has changed their terms and conditions.
Reporters from the World Socialist Web Site spoke to the workers involved. Marice said, "We used to work for Wakefield council, but on April 4 we got transferred to a company, C&D cleaning, based in Barnsley. We were told our terms and conditions would be transferred across and would be the same apart from the date of being paid.
"But when we got April's wage we had been paid £6.70, instead of £7.85 an hour. We rang up the company and they thought we were under 25 (and so not entitled to the adult minimum wage figure of £7.20 an hour). In the May pay packet, the company rectified it but paid us £7.20 an hour (the adult minimum wage).
The cut in their rate of pay combined with the fact that they are not being paid their full hours means the workers have effectively had a 25 percent cut in their pay. As well as losing pay, they have had their leave, sick leave and pension entitlements reduced.
Faced with the intransigence of their employer, at the beginning of September the women decided to walk off the job and mount a picket line at the school.
C&D Cleaning Group advertised for cleaners in order to break the strike and the picket line is being broken by scab cleaners. On the first day of the strike, which was an inset day (the school was open, but no children attended), the picket line was honoured by 18 colleagues, including teaching assistants. They were subsequently told by the head teacher they would be breaking their contract if they did not go in.
Talks held under the auspices of the government's Advisory, Conciliation and Arbitration Service failed to resolve the dispute. With the company refusing to enter into dialogue, Unison announced it would take the case to an employment tribunal. C&D has referred the matter to its legal representatives.
On October 15, a march and rally was held in Barnsley, where the cleaning company is based. It attracted around 100 supporters, including delegations from Hull and Leeds trades' councils. After a short march, a rally was held in the centre of Barnsley.
The organisers of the rally were high-ranking members of the labour and trade union bureaucracy. They had nothing to offer the striking workers, except a bankrupt perspective of them standing on a picket line for an indefinite period until a Jeremy Corbyn-led Labour government rides to their rescue.
The reality is that the unions have betrayed every major struggle of the working class over the last three decades, in collaboration with successive Labour and Conservative governments. Left in the clutches of the trade union bureaucracy, the Kinsley workers, despite their determined struggle, face isolation and defeat.

I needed a specific brand of homeopathic medicine and the doctor helped me get the prescription. He was punctual and thorough.
I was so happy to have a visit with Dr. Blanning. His energy and expertise….his deep listening ability, his feedback were all on target and helped me at a deep level. It is so nice to feel heard and understood. I love his heartfelt and holistic approach to health and healing.


Eric Wynalda showed once again why he's the United States' leading goal scorer in international competition.
Wynalda had one goal and one assist, and had another goal disallowed in the United States' 3-0 victory over Cuba in a first-round CONCACAF Gold Cup match at the Oakland Coliseum on Sunday.
Wynalda and Roy Wegerle scored within a three-minute span early in the second half to snap a scoreless tie.
Joe-Max Moore added a penalty-kick goal in the 76th minute.
Wegerle's goal came in the 55th minute. Frankie Hejduk headed the ball into the middle of the field at the top of the penalty box, and Wynalda flicked it to Wegerle, who had a straight shot into the net.
Wynalda followed with an unassisted goal in the 58th minute. Cuba goalie Alexi Reve-Aviles came out to challenge Cobi Jones, who chipped it inside the box. Wynalda, who has 32 goals in 92 international matches, had an easy shot into an open net.
Cuba had a chance to take the lead in the 53rd minute, but Ariel Alvarez-Leyva's shot was touched up into the bar by USA goalie Brad Friedel.
Wynalda's goal 5 minutes into the match was disallowed when he was ruled offsides, though replays clearly showed Wegerle had passed the ball slightly behind himself.
In another game, El Salvador and Guatemala played to a scoreless tie in a first-round match at the Los Angeles Coliseum.

Rungholt var en stor frisisk stad på den nordfrisiska ön Strand i Vadehavet, innan en stor stormflod (kallad för Andra Marcellus-stormfloden eller Erste Grote Mandränke på tyska och den store manddrukning på danska) på natten den 16 januari 1362 kom över den slesvigska ön. Staden låg i nuvarande tyska förbundslandet Schleswig-Holstein. Det antas att över 7600 människor drunknade den natten i Vadehavet. Staden sjönk i havet i loppet av en natt. Själva ön Strand blev vid en senare storm den 11 oktober 1634 sönderdelad i de nordfrisiska småöarna Pellvorm, Nordstrand och Nordstrandischmoor. Denna stormflod, känd som Burchardi-stormfloden, kom att döda någonstans mellan 8 000 och 15 000 människor längs den nordfrisiska kusten.

Arkeologiska fynd från den sjunkna staden är gjorda på flera platser i Vadehavet.

Under mellankrigstiden blev legenden om den sjunkna staden sann
Under en lång tid var Rungholt bara en legend. Inga fysiska bevis fanns från tiden före 1362. Det kom att ändras med förändringar av tidvattnet mellan 1921 och 1938, då rester av vallar, byggnader och brunnar hittades. Fynden registrerades systematiskt och bekräftades via gamla kartor. Särskilt betydelsefull var Johannes Mejers från 1636, vilket byggde på en karta från 1240. Andra bekräftelser på att legenden var sann var ett testamente från 1345 med en uppgift om Rungholt och dessutom ett handelsavtal med Hamburgs köpmän 1 maj 1361. Endast åtta månader före stormfloden som förstörde staden, vilket ger en försäkran om att platsen fortfarande existerade vid tiden dessföre. Dessa två dokument finns numera att bese i stadsarkivet i Hamburg. Rungholtforskaren Andreas Busch har utifrån fördelningen och av antalet brunnar uppskattat Rungholts invånare till 1 500–2 000 invånare. Jämförbar med Kiels befolkning på 1300-talet, medan Hamburg hade ca 5 000 under samma tid.

Sägnen om Rungholt
Enligt sägnen ville två dryckesbröder låta skämta med den lokala prästen. De kallade honom ut till en döende, som visade sig att vara ett svin, som dryckesbröderna hade klätt ut och lagt i sängen. De spottade på prästen och hällde öl i hans ränsel med sakramenten. Prästen fick samma natt ett varsel och flydde med sitt hushåll till en högt belägen kyrka på Eiderstedt. Under loppet av natten bröt vattnet igenom skyddsvallarna och sköljde Rungholt ut i havet. Ännu kan man på vindstilla dagar höra Rungholts kyrkklocka ringa under böljorna.
