|Topic Review (Newest First)
|I just want to weigh in and make it clear that I am not piling on Jeff. I enjoy reading the things that he writes and I think he is very knowledgeable about boats. I don't always agree with what he writes but I don't question his knowledge and passion. Everyone on this site whether they want to admit it or not is expressing an opinion. So I don't think he is being arrogant I just think he really believes in what he is writing. And by the way Kevlar Pirate...I thought you joined because of Fight Club! lol.
My comments also were in defence of the boat to other readers too. Every now and then I Google a "Newport 41" just to see what is giong on, and this time
I came upon these posts, so I joined up to specifically negate the Jeff comments.
This is a worldwide post board and any potential smart boat buyer doing his due diligence will read as much as possible. When a potential buyer comes across a Jeff post he may believe it. and get a wrong impression based on nothing more than an anecdotal experience.
I have a list of boats which I would never buy because of design or structural or both, but I would never have the arrogance to broadcast it offensively. I made note of a couple here just for substantiation. In the case of the J-35, real racers know these things and If they choose to buy the boat or similar designs they know the risks. In the case of breaking spreaders, good engineering is often compromised by profit needs, remember the space shuttle o-rings.
Send a private message with email and i will send pics. From what you have said about your rudder i think you are fine. I have put in 100's of hours doing things to an already good boat. people think i'm nuts. Only do what is necessary and then if time and money allow, do more. Sail on
|If you think I'm saying she isn't capable of offshore work you're misunderstanding me. I picked that boat out of everything I looked at and as I said before there's very littel I would change regardless of my budget. I have expanded the cockpit drains, made her more water tight (mast boot, new ports, inspection covers over cockpit speakers, ect). I'm not sure about changing my rudder. I have a MKII so my rudder would be different than what was on your boat. I have no problems with what's there now but I'm curious if you have any pictures of yours. Thanks for bringing up the stability calculations. When Jeff first tore a strip of my boat that was one of the factors I brought up. I know she's fast, stable and stiff but I guess these boats have a reputation with some people.
Glad you are back
The Newport 41 is plenty capable for offshore. I dont know why you dont think so
other than perhaps some unqualified opinions.
1 The hull design has a very high static stability limit of 132 degrees with
a ratio of 7.5to 1 positive (upright) vs. negative (inverted) stability
2 The hulls are solid hand lay-up roving mat combo with 2 layers of finishing cloth under the gel coat. The forward sections have balsa core in addition. I have been hauled many times and I have taken precise measurements when the boat is blocked, hanging in the slings and in the water to find only tiny deflections.
I have also loosened the tie rod nut to see if the deck would rise when going to weather. which it did not. The force was not great enough to break the RTV in the mast partners..
I have also ran a tight wire bow to stern and measured the hull deflection on max backstay load of 3000. The deflection was 14mm. (pretty stiff hull) try this yourself.
3 The hull deck joint is epoxied together over a 3inch width and thru-bolted on 3 inch staggered centers. Bullet proof
4 The mast step is of excellent design (although I have heard of some standing water caused failures). A complete ring band for the uppers. Chainplates are solidly bonded to the hull with thick roving mat layers over an area of several square feet.
5 The hull is easily driven with good shear and forward freeboard
6 The Sparcraft mast is very strong and the spreaders are solidly bolted
Every N41 I have seen on the West Coast here appears to be the same as mine, however I have never inspected them inside, I cant imagine there is much difference. I was acquainted with a production supervisor after the company dissolved and received many favorable comments on the construction.
The boat has very nice manners in a sea. When going upwind it does not bury its bow as newer fat transomed boats do. Therefore the forward deck will stay drier and less green water.
A note on stability: Modern cruiser racers have taken lead out of the keel and made more buoyancy in the beam, especially aft. This is for enhancing downwind surfing ability. This is a bad thing for the offshore cruiser. In doing so the initial righting moment, say less than 30 degrees of heel, is greater and gives a sense of safety to the sailor. (stiffer boat)
The problem is that the righting moment drops off rapidly, crosses through zero early.
If caught in a really nasty sea, this is exactly what you dont want. An example of a very unsafe offshore design is a J-35 where the ultimate static stability is only 108 degrees and even worse the ratio of positive vs. neg stability is a very scary 1.5 to 1. The J-35 is stiffer initially than the Newport, but that stiffness disintegrates rapidly when heeled more. The J35 was designed in the late 80s well after the tragic Fastnet 1979 race taught us a lesson how not to design a boat for offshore use. In that race, no boat with over a 3.2 to 1 length to beam ratio was rolled. (N41= 3.7) I would guess Jeffs Farr 38 is as bad as a J35. In addition boats with noodle masts and less ballast have less dynamic stability (roll inertia) which increases the chance of a roll. These are some of the reasons I bought the Newport and was not lured into the new (foolish) thinking just to get a little adrenalin going down a wave. I also dont like pounding in a 2-foot chop to weather. And I also dont like the idea of rolling gunwale-to-gunwale and slapping wavelets at anchor, which is what these newer designs do.
The N41 does need some mods for offshore.
1 rudder. New rudders are way better than old IOR designs. Mine, I could not be happier with
2 Port windows were cut to big. Better have a pretty good thickness of lexan over them Mine are small and have ½ inch thick and are opening
3 Cockpit drains are too small; my cockpit is smaller as the boat has a bridge deck so you have to step up before you go below.
There may be some other things for instance my steering sheaves are really big and I dont know about others. I also have added vertical posts to hang on to below along with many extra hand rails and holds.
You are going in the right direction and if you want any pictures of the many things I have done I will send them to you. But in the meanwhile, beware of highly opinionated
people who are eager to give advise. As an example, our friend Jeff compares the N41 to a superior Bennateau 42. Which is berthed next to my Ericson so I have been onboard and the owner has many complaints including the spreaders breaking at their bases because of a single pin, which takes the entire load. You will not find design shortcuts on your Sparcraft. A last note; since I bought the Ericson 46, instead of selling the 41, I decided to keep her and ship her back to Florida to sail the Bahamas again and do the Miami to Nassau race which has been resurrected from the old SORC days. I did this because I trust this boat inside and out. I have too much technical background and experience to be told by some self-proclaimed expert otherwise. I hope this reverses any ill effects the intended browbeating Jeff gave you.
|Absolutely. Enjoy yourself and be careful fighting fires in the meantime. Check out that article I sent you a few comments back. It is a very good piece on sailing on a budget.
Just got back from a fire. It's been a two week tour and all I wanna do is go for a sail but I'm heading out again in a day or two.
I can understand where you're coming from in pointing out the weaknesses of my boat. I appreciate the opinions. We've already talked about the resin pockets and the other problems in Newports. Liek I said before, mine's a later model and seems to have avoided these weaknesses. Between that and the modifications that she's already undergone and that I have planned I do have confidence in her. But, as you pointed out, being over confident in your boat adn not realizing it's or your own limitations does get people killed. As for myself, besides my experience I have always been a great problem solver. If nothing else I think this is what really defines a capable bluewater cruiser. As for my boat. I know what she was designed for. She's also been out in 50kts + and doesn;t behave like the "bargain basement racer" you say she is. With new mast step, chain plates, and rod rigging and the reinfrorcments to the steering I think she's tough enough. Now here's the part you may or may not agree with. These boats are a great value but even if I had a larger budget I wouldn't get anything different (maybe steel). Here's why. I'm not worried about strength. The fiberglass is primative but they made up for that by using lots of it. She is very stiff. The rig is now very strong. You said you've sailed on them so I find it hard to believe that you think they are uncontrollable on a wave face. If you were on one that couldn't be controlled in big rollers than it's your skipper no the boat cause this fairly green cruiser seems to be able to handle her and my monitor vane seems to be able to do it too. Now, let's consider other assets. Speed. She's fast, and in the Trades the tall rig is gonna be a life saver. I've always been of the shcool of thought that avoiding really heavy weather is the safest course of action. You can't run too far too fast in a lot of the heavy offshore boats out there. Having said that, she's no ultralight so she can handle a blow. I know her assets and her faults and they lined up with what I wanted and what I could live with. Practical Sailor Magazine has a good artical on Newports.
Thanks for saying your piece. I'm loving my Newport too. I still think it's an underappreciated boat, even if they aren;t designed for offshore.
Yes, young people don't need a high comfort factor. We'll do without all sorts of stuff. And we'll eat fish and fruit for months.(I used to be a fishing guide) I'm finding it hard to estimate our costs because of this. If we don't need to head into a marina everytime we make landfall, and we're happy without all the comforts of home I can't see it costing what it does for a retired couple. Having said that I always budget higher than I think, then I raise it another 10%. That's the joy of cruising I guess.
To Snacks and Chris. All the power to you, Do it! Things always work out, Life is good ! Check this site, he is a friend of mine
http://svpneuma.com/ I have been dreaming of SP since I was a kid and somehow I found myself with 2 boats, 4 cars and a million dollar house looking out at the ocean I want to live on! I did live on my Newport when I bought her; those were good years. Lucky we dont have kids and as soon as my dog croaks we will get serious! The cat is gone and the monitor lizard went to lizard heaven ONE to GO!!!
If you sail through LA give us a call, we welcome all cruisers!
To Surf Amen & dittos
Hi, Chris!
My boyfriend and I live aboard our Tartan 34, and we're planning on cruising next year to the SP too! I'm 26 and he's 28, and it seems to me that we're at the other best stage in life to cruise-- when you're young, able, and still without kids, mortgages, etc to tie you to shore. Especially by living aboard and buying a fixer-upper outright, almost all of both our salaries can go right into the cruising kitty. I think if we were at the age that most cruisers seem to be, living in a "project boat" with no air conditioning, no fridge and a portipotti would be too uncomfortable, and cruising would be further delayed by getting a more expensive boat, paying off the subsequent loan, etc.
We're certainly not rich either, but I am cautiously optimistic that we'll be cruising by next year. You're not alone, and I think you have excellent timing!
|Cool, we have a whole 'nother fight brewing here and I didn't start it for once! As for Farr's look at the Volvo...it was very tender in heavy weather and essentially got its butt kicked by a superior design. But that doesn't mean the Farr is not a good design. Remember, they are based in Annapolis so any design coming out of that shop would tend to favor lighter conditions. They are really fun boats to sail I can tell you that from personal experience.
Here's a way
Excellent question, The best way is to remove some inspect it and purposely break it. I have done distructive testing plenty, as I have made many modifications reflecting my personal needs, and in doing so have saber sawed, hole sawed, drilled, tapped etc. In doing so you will get a feel for the strength and if it is brittle, delaminated, resin rich or poor. I have bent and crushed samples in vises to yield the material. Another way (non destructive) is to find areas where it has not been painted (inner areas of the hull,) and see that the resin has just covered but not swamped the glass roving so that the glass strands can be seen and felt. This will give indications of the overall lay-up. The more places you can find the better. I have done countless. Also take a thru-hull valve and try to break it off with force. Try this on a race boat and you may see the hull flex too much for comfort. Have you gone to weather in a big chop and started pounding ( on one of these surfing hull types) and felt the hull quiver?? That wil definitely get your attention when you are 50 miles out!! I have listened to so-called experts (non technical types mostly) only to find out they have few real data points to substantiate a broad claim, or they have a bias. A friend once said about people: If someone were driving in a Ford or Dodge or Chevy and you ran over a bump and heard a rattle they would say what a rattle trap those #@%$ US cars. Now if that same person were in a Beamer or Benz and it rattled, they would say wow that must have been a really big bump!! I find most highly opinionated people are biased.
When Capital yachts made the Newport 41 they printed C&C in their brochure as the designers. That agreement between parties and was based on the boat being built to C&C spec. I do not disagree that there may have been exceptions, however I would say they were probably not that many. There is a lot to be said about design, construction, size and all. I have sailed long and fin keeled boats including canting keel twin foil. Boats in the ocean from 4 to 56000 lbs and I can tell you and all that size matters when you talk about comfort and tracking. I also own a 46 Ericson which weighs twice the 41 Newport and there is a very noticeable difference in behavior and fun and comfort. As I would expect between the Newport 41 and a Farr 38. I have never sailed a Farr 38 but I did a
Farr 36 and it was a very painful experience in Open Ocean trying to go up in a big sea with the bow submarining and horrible weather helm. I was surprised it held together with its twiggy noodle mast! To Chris: he did the right thing to buy the biggest boat
of good performance you can and then take care of her!

Alright guys, I am a long time waterfowl hunter who has just recently got into deer hunting and man am I hooked. My relatives have a lease in Arkansas that I spent the last two thanksgivings hunting and it has been a great time. Unfortunately, in 6 trips I have yet to take a deer. Last season we saw 47 doe and button bucks before sunset on the final day of the season. Long of the short, I live in Kansas and have deer fever. I have never even attempted to deer hunt here just recently have acquired access to some great private land. I do not bow hunt so I only have a week at the end of November and December to get out there with the rifle. I was hoping to get some advice from some of you experienced deer hunters.
Below is an aerial shot of two of the places that I have access to. Don't worry, I have removed all labels and streets to prevent anyone from internet scouting, etc. I am just trying to get an idea on where to set up, how to go about hunting it, and any other advice. Please remember that I am a rookie guys and any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance and I'm excited to see what some of you have to say.

Green Bay Volleyball Adds Kline to 2013 Roster
By: Ryan Hartwig (@RyanHartwig)
GREEN BAY, Wis. (GreenBayPhoenix.com) - Luxemburg-Casco High School standout Marissa Kline (Luxemburg, Wis.) has signed a National Letter of Intent (NLI) to join the Green Bay volleyball program next fall, Phoenix head coach Debbie Kirch announced on Wednesday. She becomes the first member of Green Bay's signing class of 2013.
"Marissa's versatility will add depth both in the setting position and on the right side," Kirch said. "She is an excellent athlete and we have been impressed with how coachable she is when she has attended our camps. We are looking forward to having her join our team next fall."
A 5-foot-11 setter and right side hitter, Kline led Luxemburg-Casco to the Division 2 sectional finals in late October. The senior finished her career as a unanimous First Team All-Bay Conference selection in 2012, and was also a Third Team All-State and first team all-conference pick as a junior in 2011. She also earned second team honors in the Bay in 2010.
A two-time Green Bay Press-Gazette All-Area performer, Kline finished her career as Luxemburg-Casco's school record-holder for assists with 3,393.
Kline plays club volleyball for the Wisconsin Volleyball Academy, and is a former high school teammate of Phoenix freshman Mikaela Gunderson (Casco, Wis.).
Kline's future squad is next in action this Friday at the 2012 Horizon League Championship in Cleveland, Ohio. The fifth-seeded Phoenix (15-13, 6-8 HL) will face fourth-seeded Loyola (16-11, 8-6 HL) in quarterfinal competition at 4 p.m. CT at Woodling Gymnasium.

Re: Adding woodwork below
Adding a full bulkhead to the cabin of the Edel would really decrease the open feel to the boat. I would not recommend it and it is not something I would do to my own boat. Adding a curtain may be easier and not to mention cheaper
Re: Adding woodwork below
Gluing strips to the overhead that you then screw the new bulkhead to may be feasible. The physical joint may work as the boat moves, however,and end up being less than satisfactory with pulled screws and little gaps of broken glue lines and/or wood fibers that open and close as you sail along. That is why the fillet approach with fiberglass tabbing is used instead. If you're creating your own "custom" laminate, please don't use crummy luan veneer which will look like crummy luan veneer no matter how many layers of varnish you try to hide it with. Nice mahogany, teak, ash, cherry and other hardwood veneers are available in 4'x8' sheets if you want them. 3/8" ply with decent looking veneers already glued at the factory is also available, though it isn't cheap. Make a template with cardboard (or luan!) first. You can also simply paint the new bulkhead white – like Concordia and Hereschoff did. It helps to make the space look bigger than dark wood.
Though a single piece bulkhead would perhaps be stronger, strength obviously isn't needed here - the existing bulkhead doesn't go up to the top of the cabin anyway. Since it appears that there's a seat on the aft side, the simplest route might be to rest the bottom edge of your sheet of ply in the corner at the top of the seat where it currently meets the bulkhead, tilt it upright, and scribe it to fit the overhead. (leaving room for the fillet and tabbing) The seat cushion will make it look like the new bulkhead is the only one. On the other side, where the half bulkhead ends and the new one goes up beyond it, you can perhaps use the top of the old bulkhead to help support a shelfput a shelf (or two). For reading, I would suggest the Gougeon Brothers on Yacht Construction. Hope it cools off for you soon.
Re: Adding woodwork below
I don't know if you have already done the bulkhead work, but I would likely remove the current half-height one, and use it as a partial template to cut a whole new piece. One piece will be stronger, and look infinitely better than two pieces joined. As for material, I would laminate a heet of lauan (sp?) door skin plywood onto each side of a piece of 3/8" ply. You'd end up with a very strong 5/8"-ish bulkhead, with nice sort of mahogany on each side that will take a finish very nicely. Lauan ply is pretty cheap, select a couple of pieces with nice uniformity and colour.
I am nearby, I wouldn't mind checking your progress.

So far I have just gutted the interior and painted the inside fibreglass. I have removed the ugly fabric material that was glued to the sides and removed the glue and foam residue from same. I have decided (after seeing it on the site) to glue cork on the sides where that fabric had been. if I can find a reasonable source of cork.
It has been so $#@#'g hot this summer that working below has been not fun.
This weekend I will be sanding the topsides and shopping for a new hatch gasket or an alternative to add to the existing one.
I am not far from you...in a storage yard @ Cherry St & Commissioners, across from the Cirque du Soleil tent. The big 100' five legged white crane, visible from the Gardiner is about 50' east of me.

Re: Adding woodwork below
I don't know the answer to that. I'm not an expert, but I know some boats have a thwartwise beam under the mast support, and attaching to this would seem to eliminate the concern over making an inflexible hard spot--it's already hard there.
Though you don't know the reverse--how the strains that the mast & rig places on that deck structure may affect the joint you create.
My unscientific sense of it is that whatever you do within reason probably won't have very great structural consequences one way or another.
Re: Adding woodwork below
I have Caseys book and noted his comments about the foam "shock" absorber spline. I am leaning towards your "inch short of cabin top" alternative, attaching it only to the side and the existing holes in the mast support. Note though that this "room divider" bulkhead would be right at the mast support, an area that I presume is already a hard spot and the stiffest part of the cabin top. If I did attach it to the cabin top this would only enhance the hard spot, no?
Re: Adding woodwork below
That wheel has already been invented and we probably won't come up with a better solution here.
Get Casey's book. According to him, as I recall, boatbuilders use a flexible foam spline--a strip maybe 1/2" thick and a little wider than the thickness of the plywood, beveled at the sides--between the edge of the plywood bulkhead from the cabintop. That lessens the problem of creating a hard spot under your deck. They then layer strips of fiberglass to bond the vertical board to the cabintop. Look at the way original bulkheads on your boat are attached.
Alternatively, would simply raising the height of the partition to an inch or so short of the cabintop meet your needs? That would be much easier structurally.
Re: Adding woodwork below
Apologies for the delayed reply. Appreciate all your input.
I am not paneling the ceiling of cabin. .I just want to add a new vertical wooden divider, extending upwards the current "half wall" between the salon and the v-berth. I am leaning towards gluing some 1x1 strips to the ceiling of the cabin and then securing the new vertical piece with screws to those strips. I would also secure it to the mast extension.
The ceiling will remain painted fiberglass. It is not cored.

4. Best reference book for projects like this.
Have fun & post lots of pics.

Servlets - Server HTTP Response
As discussed in previous chapter, when a Web server responds to a HTTP request to the browser, the response typically consists of a status line, some response headers, a blank line, and the document. A typical response looks like this:
HTTP/1.1 200 OK Content-Type: text/html Header2: ... ... HeaderN: ... (Blank Line) <!doctype ...>  ...  ...
The status line consists of the HTTP version (HTTP/1.1 in the example), a status code (200 in the example), and a very short message corresponding to the status code (OK in the example).
Following is a summary of the most useful HTTP 1.1 response headers which go back to the browser from web server side and you would use them very frequently in web programming:
|This header specifies the request methods (GET, POST, etc.) that the server supports.
|This header specifies the circumstances in which the response document can safely be cached. It can have values public, private or no-cache etc. Public means document is cacheable, Private means document is for a single user and can only be stored in private (nonshared) caches and no-cache means document should never be cached.
|This header instructs the browser whether to use persistent in HTTP connections or not. A value of close instructs the browser not to use persistent HTTP connections and keep-alive means using persistent connections.
|This header lets you request that the browser ask the user to save the response to disk in a file of the given name.
|This header specifies the way in which the page was encoded during transmission.
|This header signifies the language in which the document is written. For example en, en-us, ru, etc.
|This header indicates the number of bytes in the response. This information is needed only if the browser is using a persistent (keep-alive) HTTP connection.
|This header gives the MIME (Multipurpose Internet Mail Extension) type of the response document.
|This header specifies the time at which the content should be considered out-of-date and thus no longer be cached.
|This header indicates when the document was last changed. The client can then cache the document and supply a date by an If-Modified-Since request header in later requests.
|This header should be included with all responses that have a status code in the 300s. This notifies the browser of the document address. The browser automatically reconnects to this location and retrieves the new document.
|This header specifies how soon the browser should ask for an updated page. You can specify time in number of seconds after which a page would be refreshed.
|This header can be used in conjunction with a 503 (Service Unavailable) response to tell the client how soon it can repeat its request.
|This header specifies a cookie associated with the page.
Methods to Set HTTP Response Header:
There are following methods which can be used to set HTTP response header in your servlet program. These methods are available with HttpServletResponse object.
|Method & Description
|String encodeRedirectURL(String url)
Encodes the specified URL for use in the sendRedirect method or, if encoding is not needed, returns the URL unchanged.
|String encodeURL(String url)
Encodes the specified URL by including the session ID in it, or, if encoding is not needed, returns the URL unchanged.
|boolean containsHeader(String name)
Returns a boolean indicating whether the named response header has already been set.
|boolean isCommitted()
Returns a boolean indicating if the response has been committed.
|void addCookie(Cookie cookie)
Adds the specified cookie to the response.
|void addDateHeader(String name, long date)
Adds a response header with the given name and date-value.
|void addHeader(String name, String value)
Adds a response header with the given name and value.
|void addIntHeader(String name, int value)
Adds a response header with the given name and integer value.
|void flushBuffer()
Forces any content in the buffer to be written to the client.
|void reset()
Clears any data that exists in the buffer as well as the status code and headers.
|void resetBuffer()
Clears the content of the underlying buffer in the response without clearing headers or status code.
|void sendError(int sc)
Sends an error response to the client using the specified status code and clearing the buffer.
|void sendError(int sc, String msg)
Sends an error response to the client using the specified status.
|void sendRedirect(String location)
Sends a temporary redirect response to the client using the specified redirect location URL.
|void setBufferSize(int size)
Sets the preferred buffer size for the body of the response.
|void setCharacterEncoding(String charset)
Sets the character encoding (MIME charset) of the response being sent to the client, for example, to UTF-8.
|void setContentLength(int len)
Sets the length of the content body in the response In HTTP servlets, this method sets the HTTP Content-Length header.
|void setContentType(String type)
Sets the content type of the response being sent to the client, if the response has not been committed yet.
|void setDateHeader(String name, long date)
Sets a response header with the given name and date-value.
|void setHeader(String name, String value)
Sets a response header with the given name and value.
|void setIntHeader(String name, int value)
Sets a response header with the given name and integer value.
|void setLocale(Locale loc)
Sets the locale of the response, if the response has not been committed yet.
|void setStatus(int sc)
Sets the status code for this response.
HTTP Header Response Example:
You already have seen setContentType() method working in previous examples and following example would also use same method, additionally we would use setIntHeader() method to set Refresh header.
// Import required java libraries import java.io.*; import javax.servlet.*; import javax.servlet.http.*; import java.util.*; // Extend HttpServlet class public class Refresh extends HttpServlet { // Method to handle GET method request. public void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, IOException { // Set refresh, autoload time as 5 seconds response.setIntHeader("Refresh", 5); // Set response content type response.setContentType("text/html"); // Get current time Calendar calendar = new GregorianCalendar(); String am_pm; int hour = calendar.get(Calendar.HOUR); int minute = calendar.get(Calendar.MINUTE); int second = calendar.get(Calendar.SECOND); if(calendar.get(Calendar.AM_PM) == 0) am_pm = "AM"; else am_pm = "PM"; String CT = hour+":"+ minute +":"+ second +" "+ am_pm; PrintWriter out = response.getWriter(); String title = "Auto Refresh Header Setting"; String docType = "<!doctype html public \"-//w3c//dtd html 4.0 " + "transitional//en\">\n"; out.println(docType + "\n" + "<title>" + title + "</title>\n"+ "\n" + "
" + title + "
\n" + "
Current Time is: " + CT + "
\n"); } // Method to handle POST method request. public void doPost(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, IOException { doGet(request, response); } }
Now calling the above servlet would display current system time after every 5 seconds as follows. Just run the servlet and wait to see the result:
Auto Refresh Header Setting
Current Time is: 9:44:50 PM

The union label: Don't let it be 'thug'
And yet unions advance that perception when some of their members use violence and intimidation as political tactics, and union leaders and other members say nothing.
In Michigan on Wednesday, Republican legislators passed and the Republican governor signed legislation that would forbid unions from collecting fees from non-members who did not want to pay them. At a protest outside the state capitol building, some union members tore down a large tent that sheltered activists who supported the law, and a video shows a FOX News contributor being punched repeatedly by a burly union protester and grabbed from behind by another.
This is the very definition of thuggish behavior. So where are the union leaders and union-backed politicians denouncing it? Is "solidarity" so powerful that violence in its name is tacitly condoned?
If union leaders want to stem the labor movement's decline in popularity (and membership) and throw off the "thug" label, a good place to start would be to end the use of violence and intimidation by their side.

CHARLOTTESVILLE, VA. - Senior midfielder Crystal Dunn, the 2012 consensus National Player of the Year, picked up where she left off last year Friday evening, scoring a pair of second half goals to power top-ranked North Carolina to a 2-0 win over ninth-ranked Santa Clara as part of the Klockner Classic in Charlottesville, Va. The game was played in a steady rain for most of the first half at Klockner Stadium before the weather cleared in the second half.
The defending national champion Tar Heels won their season opener and will now play VCU Sunday at 12 noon in Charlottesville. #7 UVA and VCU played the nightcap Friday with the Cavaliers triumphing 4-2.
Dunn's goals came off assists by forwards Kealia Ohai and Summer Green, respectively, in the 59th and 86th minutes of play. Bryane Heaberlin came off the bench at halftime and made three big second saves to finish off the combined shutout with starter Anna Sieloff.
Dunn put the Tar Heels ahead at 58:27 as she finished with her right foot inside the near left post from 12 yards out after taking a pass from Kealia Ohai. Off a throw in, Ohai gathered in the ball and dribbled past a defender, breaking herself free and feeding Dunn inside the left side of the box for the putaway. The Tar Heels added the insurance goal with 4:07 to play when Dunn took a pass from Summer Green and scored from 15 yards out. Green got behind the Santa Clara defense on the right side with a nifty move past a defender and fed the ball to Dunn, whose shot was initially knocked down by Santa Clara goalkeeper Andi Tostanoski. But the Santa Clara goalie was unable to keep it from going into the back of the net as the spinning ball handcuffed her and rolled across the line.
Dunn, who scored all five of her goals in 2012 in the NCAA post-season, had her first multiple goal game since scoring twice against BYU in the NCAA quarterfinals last year.
Heaberlin made three saves in the second half for the Tar Heels, the most crucial on a header by Sofia Huerta from point blank range with 32:58 to play in the match. The sophomore goalkeeper from St. Petersburg, Fla. also made a save on a shot by Huerta with 8:30 to play off a direct kick after the Tar Heels were called for a foul in a dangerous area. Heaberlin's third save came on a shot by Dani Weatherholt just 4:41 into the second half. In fact, the best early scoring chances in the second half came from the Broncos but Heaberlin was equal to the task twice in the opening 12 minutes of the period. It was just a little over a minute after her save on Huerta's header that Dunn struck for the game-winner on the other end.
Tostanoski made six saves for Santa Clara, none bigger than the one on a close in shot by Paige Nielsen with 13 minutes to play that kept Santa Clara's deficit at a single goal. She also saved a shot by Ohai in the 70th minute of play, tipping it over the end line for a corner kick at the last second.
Despite outshooting Santa Clara 9-1 in the first half and enjoying a 5-0 edge in corner kicks, the Tar Heels had to settle for a scoreless tie with the Broncos at halftime. Carolina had several good chances to score in the half, the first coming from Kealia Ohai in the 11th minute but her shot from 12 yards out went wide left. With 28:11 left in the half, Crystal Dunn had a shot from 22 yards out in the center of the pitch but Andi Tostanoski went to her knees to make the save for SCU.
The only shot of the first half for Santa Clara came with 24:10 when Brittany Ambrose's strike from the top of the box went high. UNC would get two more excellent looks before halftime. Summer Green had the best chance of the half but from 25 yards her shot sailed high over the bar. Caitlin Ball then had an 18-yard shot with 3:05 left go high as most of UNC's first half opportunities came from distance.
Carolina outshot the Broncos 17-5 on the game and finished with a 9-0 edge in corner kicks. UNC's goalkeepers combined for three saves while Santa Clara's Tostanoski finished with six.
The Tar Heels will return to action on Sunday at 12 noon to play the VCU Rams in the second day of action at the 2013 Klockner Classic.North Carolina will open its home season against the New Mexico Lobos next Friday at 5 p.m. as part of the Nike Carolina Classic at Fetzer Field. The game will be webcast live on GoHeelsTV.

Almost like winning the lottery ain't it!!!!!Quote:
Well I trimmed the stripping lug, beveled the feed tray edges a bunch more and beveled the cartridge guide. My other problem was that I had the feed pawls in the wrong position causing the round to sit cocked in the feed tray instead of being in line with the chamber. It is the greatest feeling in the world to see that round get stripped out and see it fly out the front of the trunnion. I had a couple of other questions. For loading conventional MG such as the M249 SAW and M240 is bolt locked to rear open top cover place rounds against cartridge stop close cover. I do understand that both of these weapons fire from the open bolt. The reason for locking the bolt to the rear before loading thou is to insure that the feed stud on the bolt will line up with the feed guide rail. I realize that the MG47 fires from the closed bolt. So how do you go about loading it and maintain alignment between all moving parts. Also when using a standard AK barrel do you still make the bolt carrier extension 6.13 long? I have not purchased my barrel yet so I have no idea what the dimension for the gas block is. One last question what did you use to make the brass deflector? Thank you again for all of your time..

Survival Dentistry
How do you confront dentistry when there is no dentist? This is an interesting question as I had a tooth go bad (infected nerve) when I was working in the jungles of north Myanmar. It was a molar and it was somewhat painful although I did have some benzocaine to deaden the pain. I had another five or six weeks before I could get out of the jungle and get to a "real" dentist in Hong Kong or Singapore. Since then I had thought about how to deal with tooth problems when there is no dentist.
I found an online book "Where There Is No Dentist" which may be of some help and is designed for those in the Third World. The book is also available in hard copy from Amazon. It is part of a series including the book "Where There Is No Doctor" from the Hesperian Organization.

Rudy Giuliani's numbers are dropping as Huckabee and other opponents attract voters so the former New York mayor returned to the mantra of 9/11 in order to regain political momentum. He trotted out a new slogan, "Tested, Ready, Now" in order to prove, to an increasingly doubting audience, that he was then and is now the man of the hour. "I saw it on the morning of September 11, 2001," he told an audience, "there were points on that day, that morning too, where I wondered whether we had the strength to deal with this, the worst attacks in our history, unprecedented, horrific." He then pulled out the tear jerking image of fire fighters who put the American flag at Ground Zero as a symbol of courage that supposedly connected to his actions that day. He concluded with his usual bragging comment, "I've met adversity before, I've led in situations that seemed hopeless and dire in need of a miracle. I don't just hope for miracles. I expect miracles."
Al Smith, a former governor of New York, used to say, "let's look at the record" when dealing with someone's claims to be excellent. OK, let's look at Mayor Giuliani's record on September 11, 2001. Despite warnings from experts that a crisis command center should be underground, he placed New York's command center in the Twin Towers, Despite warnings about the failure of radios and communication facilities that cropped up in the terrorist bombings in the 1990s, he did nothing. His failure to have an effective communication system undoubtedly was partially responsible for deaths of firemen and policemen. Firemen wanted to continue rescue operations and he closed them down. The "brave" mayor walked around New York City with dozens of policemen and faced absolutely no danger of anything other than diverting needed policemen from where they should have been– at Ground Zero. The United States of America did not face any dire threat to its security, there was no need of any "miracle" because our armed forces were sufficient to handle any external threat. The attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941 DID represent a threat since most of our Pacific fleet was sunk. Perhaps, Mayor Giuliani, who boasts of his heroism, can explain why every major fire fighting organization opposes his nomination as do most police organizations. If he was such a "hero" why do those who actually did heroic things on that terrible day regard him as a bragging blowhard who talks and talks?

you have a 8 month old dog that's not trained/house broken.
it's much easier to have 1 dog solidly trained before bringing
in another dog. if you're thinking about letting the dogs run
free in the yard you need to make sure they can't get out (dig out,
jump out, climb out, unlock the gate, etc). personally i think
leaving 2 yound dogs in a yard unattended is a good recipe
for a disaster.
a watched dog, tethered dog, crated dog can't chew on things
in the house.
Bitter apple spray was a life saver I completely forgot!!! I sprayed every wire in my house now the dog doesn't come near them, you can do the same with furniture but you have to respray about once a week because it does wear out. It's good stuff like $14

|Cassidy's Mom
If she's chewing on furniture she has way too much freedom! Some dogs chew for a year or a year and a half before outgrowing it, some never really outgrow it, so you may have a long road of chewed up possessions ahead of you if you don't want to crate or otherwise confine her when you can't directly supervise.
Dena was never a destructive chewer, and neither was Keefer, but Halo still can't be trusted at 4 years old. She has a special thing for eating toilet paper right off the holder. Sneaker was bad for awhile but finally stopped, and Cassidy we thought had outgrown the destructive chewing phase, but then she had a secondary phase after being fine for months. She did finally outgrow it though too.
Do you have a plan to prevent an accidental breeding? She's old enough to go into heat if she hasn't already, and your new puppy will be capable of siring a litter by the time he's her age, so you should either spay/neuter them or have a foolproof way to keep them completely separate for as long as a month when she's in heat.
|JakodaCD OA
You can always try spraying your furniture with Bitter Apple, altho some dogs don't mind it, and I'm not sure if it would ruin your furniture.
Honestly, I've never had a "furniture chewing puppy",,or one that really chewed on much of anything..My aussie did chew up one of a 90$ pair of running shoes, but my fault..
Your doing good by redirecting and praise for "GOOD" chewing just keep up what your doing and hopefully she'll grow out of it, and/or she'll most likely be passing this bad habit on to a puppy
Ugh I know how you feel, my 7 month old chewed on our dinner table. You have to make your dog tired, when they dogs are tired they are not bored therefor they are not destroying your house. Also get a crate for when you are not there. And give her some yummy chews like Kong toy, keeps them busy for hours... Before you leave the house take the dog for a walk get some of that excitement out I don't know what else to tell you when I leave the I just hope that she doesn't destroy it , if you catch her in the act say a firm NO it definately helps, there are a few things in my house she tried to get to but when I simply said NO on a few occasions she got the point... If I leave for a long time the dog goes in crate and that's a for sure way she doesn't chew up everything
Sent from my iPhone using Petguide.com Free App
|Thanks for the reply. We also have a new male GSD puppy coming next week. We want our female to have a playmate and companion for when we are at work or gone for misc. stuff. Not for breeding. I know it's another dog to train but I love training them. It's a lot of fun. And we wanted two anyway. Hopefully they will keep each other occupied so there won't be as much chewing. I was told a lot of the behavior like that is because they are alone and need to be doing something and if they don't have something or someone else to keep them busy then those unfortunate things will happen. The puppy of course will be chewing during it's teething stage but hopefully at some point I won't have worry about them being alone in the house. We have a big house and yard so there is plenty of room for two dogs to play and keep each other busy. Hopefully it will work out how we want but regardless they will always have a loving home.
It is frustrating...been there!
My advice....more exercise and mental stimulation. My boy was less likely to be a rascal if he was tired.
If you can't have two eyes on her, crate her or tether her to your belt loop.
Don't leave all her toys laying around. I always put them away and give them, it's like it's a new toy everytime and it kept him occupied longer.
Like you mentioned free roam of the house is a goal...still can be but she's no where near ready. My boy will be 3 in March and he's still crated when we are not home, he's ok at night out of his crate. I would imagine he would get "busy" if we were not home...not taking my chances! lol He likes his crate and accepts it as down time which is perfect.
Also, keep redirecting like you are.
Remember..as frustrating as it is, when they destroy our stuff it's our fault for not having two eyes on them
Problem with chewing.
Our 8 month old GSD is a chewer and has destroyed some of my wife's expensive shoes. We have learned to keep everything put up where she can't get to it. She also has a lot of chew toys.
She now chews on the coffee table corner and our area rug. We always rush over to stop her and give her a toy instead. When she starts chewing on the toy we give her good praise.
Our goal is to have her roam free in the house when we are not there and bark if someone is close to the house. But she still chews on stuff and can't do that yet.
I know she is still a puppy but I am wondering if there is more I can do to stop it or should I just keep doing the same thing and wait til she is more mature in hopes of reaching that goal?

Discussion in 'Draft Zone' started by Sasquatch, Apr 30, 2006.
The moment we've all been waiting for is nearly upon us.
So who will be this years Mr. Irrelevant?
It would be funny if it was Marcus Vick
That would be good punishment
He doesn't deserve the honor of being Mr. Irrelevant.
Didn't last year's Mr. Irrevelant play alot last year?
Great minds think alike. It is Oakland, so barring a trade, it's a distinct possibility. I'll go with Olson.
You can't trade Comp picks.
I think being known as Mr. Irelevant is more demeaning to someone with his EGO than not being drafted ......
Also a guy with his talent could make more money as a free agent ..... so I hope he gets picked
I did not know that. So I'm sticking with Olson then.
The knowledge that I gain from this board is the reason I keep coming back. That and the titilating Suzie Kolber threads.
My point was that he deserves even less then being Mr. Irrelevant. It's too much good for him.
haha chanting Marcus Vick
No Marcus Vick? ***?
Great ...... now the Jerk will get a decent free agent contract somewhere (prolly the redskins):laugh2:
Marcus Vick signs a 30 million 10 year contract with the Washington Redskins .....
Redskin Fans say he is the next Joe Montana ...... and their 4 3rd stringers are the next Jerry Rice's
Yea but he fits an AL Davis player to a T not to mention the fans. Come on Vick probaly spent time in the can with some of the Raiders Fans a perfect fit:abuseme:
And the honor goes to a Mainah.
Kevin McMahan, WR, from the UMaine Blackbears, I salute you.
Kevin McMahan 6'2" WR from Maine
Really! Marcus Vick did not get drafted?!!
Well, his brother should never have been drafted as a QB either! Maybe Marcus should change his name to Ron Canada? Or, Ron France? How about Ron Turkey?
Congrats to him!
As usual, some guy I have never heard of before.
Doesn't get much more irrelevant than Lobster U., errrr, the University of Maine...
Careful now, SB.
Wasn't that the immortal Randal William's alma mater?
And look how long he stuck around.

I play in front of people once a year. Everybody's drunk, the expectations are low, and the co-players are as bad or worse than me.
It's always been a dream to play a set at a dive bar, but I settle for the annual spring pike trip. The six string makes the packing list along with the tuning device for the tone deaf, and the memories of being asked to stop playing Bad Moon Rising on repeat.

So, I've put in about 5 runs on my 2013 EVO so far.
My first impressions were it was playful but not too playful. Butters we're easy but the board still had a lot of pop due to the camber. The board is surprisingly fast for being a park oriented board. It may be that sintered base thats helping out.
Since its a little on the less damp side, going through steeper bumpier runs are not that fun because you could feel every little bump and chatters a bit so i wouldnt suggest going down steep moguls with this thing cause when you pick up speed and try to carve it out your going to just hit a bump and wash out trying to slow down.
I hit up some tree runs and the control on this thing is pretty damn amazing. I feel like a ninja on it. Edge to Edge is smooth and quick. That extra torsion flex helps with tight turns. The Blunt Edges make a big difference. The board feels a lot lighter than it looks.
Overall im really enjoying the board, but im still getting used to it. It's a more park oriented board, but can still kick ass anywhere else in the mountain if used correctly.
Unfortunely today I was going down the mountain and some douche cut me off and clipped my board that gave me this little ding. Not sure if I need to repair it or anything. Doesn't look too bad but I hope it doesnt get worse.

For both I would see if you could demo a board.
Prior is willing to give me a bit of a deal on the Brandywine for her, so it'd be about the same price as the Donek.
I keep trying to sell her on a stiffer cambered Burton, but she said she's seen how much damage the topsheets on my T6 and T7 sustained in the last couple years. It's too bad beacuse other than the topsheets they've were/are great boards. I grew a lot as a rider with the T7...
She did demo some alternate camber/rocker shapes last year and wasn't thrilled with any of them. Thanks again!

She's looking at the Donek Incline (they'll make one in the exact size she needs), and the Prior Brandywine, among other things (Nidecker Princess, Arbor Push).
I'm just stoked she is getting to the point that she wants a stiffer, longer freeride board!

So I've put around 8 days on the Evo now. I figure I should give an update because my opinion of this board has changed for the better.
The more I ride the Evo, the more I'm loving it. I didn't like how the board flexed at first but now I'm getting a good feel for it. This is my first RC board and it took me longer than I expected. It feels like the flex comes from the middle of the board rather than the tips which I think was opposite from my last board. Now that I'm more used to it I'm getting some really nice pop and it feels flexy and fun.
The base is really fast and tough. I've run over plenty of early season rocks and the base just has minor scratches on it. The top sheet still looks almost new. There's an unfinished white ring around the edge of the top sheet that hides all the little dings you get from waiting in the lift lines. That's just minor cosmetics but it's a nice touch.
The board is forgiving. The edges don't feel catchy on boxes or bad landings and I've put plenty of ugly landings on it.
It feels stable and the edge hold is good. I feel really confident controlling it and setting up with it. Hard to explain but going edge-to-edge feels so nice, smooth and easy. It's nimble and easy to control.
In powder, this is a short board and I burn up my back leg. It's not exactly awesome at powering through tracked out powder either. Just have to work harder and pick out a good line. Overall though, I think it performs better than I expected for a board I bought mainly for park use.
So yea, I'm stoked on this board now. It's going to be a lot of fun to progress my freestyle skills with it. I'd like to try a Lib-tech or GNU for my next board but I'm sipping on the NS kool-aid right now.
Yep, I got the 2009 Evo.
It's like cars, you don't notice a particular car much until you own one.
Was at Apex last season and they were having a Neversummer demo day. I was like WTF. Had the new cobra and all that hype hype

|Got to say I was the bit the same when I first rode my evo canbc, granted mine is a 161 and a 2010 model. However, since then I've come to love it, got about 30 days on it, mainly doing park/natrual features and it feels far softer then the first run. Give it a bit of time, it'll soften.

'"I was not in a good mood last year," Hecht said Wednesday morning. "I was miserable and down on myself, hard on myself. I wanted to change that. I knew that I had to change it to play better. Even at home, away from hockey, I was still in a bad mood. So I had to learn to separate those two things."'

Have you ever purchased from PartSelect.com before?
Thank you for helping make our site better.
PartSelect Number PS422630
This is a white cut-to-fit door shelf retainer bar.
This part works with the following brands: Frigidaire, Kenmore, Gibson, Uni, Tappan, Westinghouse, Kelvinator.
This part works with the following products: Refrigerator.
I checked the defrost timer (bottom front of the freezer / outside). I advanced it to send it into the defrost cycle. The heating elements in the freezer (behind the panel) did not heat up. I cut the wires going to the defrost thermostat. Turned the power back on, made sure the defrost timer was still in the defrost cycle and checked the voltage at the wires to the defrost thermostat (before the heating elements). There was power / voltage there. I jumped out / bypassed the defrost thermostat turned the power back on and the heating elements came on. The problem was the defrost thermostat. So I replaced it with a new one from PartSelect.com. How it works...When the defrost timer is advanced to the defrost cycle the switch closes sending power to the defrost thermostat. If the temperature is low enough, the defrost thermostat switch will close and sends power to the heating elements. When the temperature rises high enough about 55 degrees the switch at the thermostat will open and the heating elements will turn off (not allowing the freezer temperature to get too high, just enough to defrost the coil). The refrigerator will turn back on when the timer advances. The defrost timer will defrost every 8-12 hours.
Help other customers find the most helpful instructions.
Were these instructions helpful?
I took a look at the web site where I purchased the parts, then I took a look at the paper enclosed with the order. Thankfully, I have a battery operated screw driver since there are so many screws. There are plenty of screws in my refrigerator and freezer doors. I thought that since my old door gaskets were all chewed up looking, if I changed them, the 10 year old air conditioners and the old fashioned light bulbs to instant on energy saver light bulbs, the electric bill would become more manageable. The refrigerator and freezer door gaskets were the first step. They were easy to swap out. You just need to empty the door of all food items, then pull back the old gasket to see the screws. There are alot of them. You should leave 2 loosened screws on each side of the refrigerator door to hold the panel in place while you work and remove the rest. Then you can remove the old gasket and slide the new one into place. Make sure as you tighten the screws and replace the ones you removed, the new gasket fits into the door panel groove securely and is in place as you tighen the screws. Make sure it is in place all the way around the door as you work. You repeat the procedure for the freezer using only one loosened screw on each side to keep the interior panel in place while you work. It takes some time due to the number of screws, but the work is pretty easy. I never even broke a nail. The end caps for the shelf bars just snap into place just as the old ones can be snapped out with a bit of pressure. They do not have to be wrestled and you need to work carefully so that you do not break them. (I ordered an extra just in case, but I didn't need it. I will have it in case I need it in the future)My electric bill dropped from $450 to $110 a month with all the improvements I made. Thank you Part Select for taking the fear of screwing it up, out of the repair process and making it manageable. I can afford my electric bill now. Thanks for your help.
Placed door rack in end caps and snapped on to door
I was missing a door shelf, and until I saw your diagram, I didn't know I was missing egg tray. .
The replacement part was a bit too long (about 6"). Measured length of the existing bar that was on lower shelf and used a rotary tool with a metal cutting disc to make the same length. Everything snapped into place easily.
I want to start by saying that I am female and want to let all females know that we can do home repairs! My story is not just about the repair but the wonderful customer service at PartsSelect.com. I have used them MANY times to order missing parts for appliances (I own rental property and tenants are always "losing" or breaking appliance parts). This particular time was the first time I received an incorrect part...not sure if it was my ordering or the wrong part was shipped. I contacted PartsSelect.com by email and got a REAL response within 24 hours. The customer service person who responded, immediately credited my account and "found" the correct part to order and less than 48 hours after my first email to them, my new part is already on it's way! I know it will only take minutes to finish my repair and am really impressed with their response time and professionalism when there is a problem. As a rental property owner, I will continue to use and recommend PartSelect.com.
Placed end cap on one end of rack and attached to one side of the door by applying hand pressure.Inserted the other end of the rack into the end cap'and again applied hand pressure to insert into slot, Repairs completed.
the repair went fast and easy. my boyfried measured the retainer bar, cut it with the hack saw installed the right and left side door shelf end cap and inserted the door shelf retain bar. the door looks great. would highly recommend your website and customer service. thanks again.
The parts were sent out fast, but the wrong retainer bar. My apartment bldg is in another state, by the time I got up to my apartment bldg to do the repair several weeks had passed and i lost the bill to get a refund and now I have a $40.00 strip of metal sitting in my garageSo the fix time would have been 15 minutes had I received the correct part.
I snapped one of the end caps in, put the rack rail into the cap, placed the other cap on the other end, and snapped that end in. Because I received the exact parts needed, the entire repair took about one minute.
I had to cut the rack itself. It was too long. So make sure you have a hacksaw ready. But first look in a junk yard the rack piece is too expensive for a piece of metal
I measured the width I needed and used a handsaw to cut it the proper length. Then I snaped the pieces in and it was a perfect fit.
Ordered the parts from the product discription (photo) as well as chart showing actual size. Got the parts( in two separate shipments) cut the bar to length and snapped them inot place. Bingo!
The only problem I had was that the end cap was sent before the rack. This refrigerator is in our cottage and I brought up the end cap while waiting to receive the rack. I couldn't remember where I put the end cap, so when the rack came it took me a few weekends to find the end cap. Once I did, it took me less than 1 minute to repair. I put the rack on the end caps & pushed the end cap in place. DONE!
We just put the new end parts into the door and then placed the bar inside the caps. We had contacted our appliance dealer at least three times to get parts for us but to no avail. A friend told me about your website and the rest was history ----- and easy. Thank you.

Italian Tossed Salad RecipeRead Reviews Be the first to add a review
5 1
From Bellville, Ohio, Gayle Parker sent a snappy recipe for Italian Tossed Salad that pressed-for-time cooks can squeeze into any menu. Simple and colorful, it complements a casual lunch or a fancy holiday dinner, she writes. It's a little different from plain old iceberg lettuce and tomatoes. Canned kidney beans add protein and texture, and the pepperoni and other fixings give it a fresh zesty taste. I belong to a camping club that meets monthly, says Gayle. This salad is easy to prepare in our compact motor home kitchen, so I often take it to our potluck suppers.
Recommended: 30 Recipes for Summer Salads
- 1 package (12 ounces) ready-to-serve salad greens
- 1 cup (4 ounces) shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup canned kidney beans, drained
- 1 cup diced pepperoni
- 1/4 cup chopped onion
- 2 medium tomatoes, diced
- 1/4 to 1/2 cup Italian salad dressing
- In a salad bowl, combine the salad greens, cheese, beans, pepperoni, onion and diced tomatoes. Drizzle with dressing; toss to coat. Yield: 8 servings.

Why are my tabs overlapping?
Your tab title is too long. Shorten your tab title and you will be able to fit more tabs in a row.
Can I put tabs in Tabbed Content?
No, if you really think it is necessary then perhaps you should consider making your tab its own page and then creating tabs there. You don't have to fit everything onto one page.

The Canadiens practised again Tuesday morning in Brossard, preparing for the start of their first-round playoff series against the Ottawa Senators that kicks off Thursday night at the Bell Centre (7 p.m., CBC, RDS, TSN Radio 690).
"They're a good defensive team so we've got to be ready for a tight-checking game," Canadiens forward Tomas Plekanec said after practice.
The Habs and Sens split their four-game series during the regular season.
There was some untimely off-ice news Tuesday with The Canadian Press reporting that Habs prospect Nathan Beaulieu and his father, Ontario Hockey League coach Jacques Beaulieu, are facing assault charges in London, Ont. Strathroy-Caradoc police told CP the father and son have each been charged with two counts of assault, stemming from an altercation Saturday at a house party that followed a charity golf tournament. Two people suffered minor injuries, police added. A June 11 court date has been set.
"We've been made aware of the situation," Donald Beauchamp, the Canadiens' senior vice-president, communications and community relations, told The Gazette. "The organization spoke with Nathan Beaulieu. Since it's a legal situation for that reason we can't comment any further."
Beaulieu, a first-round draft pick in 2011 who played six games with the Canadiens this season, is one of the players the Canadiens called up from the AHL's Hamilton Bulldogs to practise as part of the "Black Aces" during the playoffs.
Jacques Beaulieu was nominated for OHL coach of the year this season after leading the Sarnia Sting to a 35-28-5 record.
After practice Tuesday, Josh Gorges said the Senators are a team that "waits for you to make mistakes, waits for you to get frustrated."
"We've got to be smart. We've got to be patient. We've got to – no matter what happens – stick to our game plan," Gorges added. "It's going to be one of those long, hard, drawn-out series (where) you've got to stay resilient."
Coach Michel Therrien wasn't made available to the media on Tuesday after practice. However, the players were asked about Senators players, including defenceman Erik Karlsson, who has made a remarkable return to play ahead of schedule from a sliced Achilles tendon injury.
"His ability to skate, to make plays, to read situations it's unbelievable," Gorges said. "He's a guy that we're going to have to focus on.
"He's a tough guy to play against because you want to finish your checks on him because you don't want him jumping into the play. But he's pretty elusive out there."
While some Habs fans were hankering for the team to meet the Toronto Maple Leafs in the first round of the playoffs, Plekanec predicted the Habs-Sens series will be a compelling one.
"It's a Canadian matchup," he said. "We're two hours away from each other. It's going to be bus rides there. A lot of fans on both sides are going to be at the games.
"It's going to be an exciting series."
The lines at practice Tuesday were: Gionta-Plekanec-Ryder; Desharnais-Bourque-Pacioretty; Gallagher-Eller-Galchenyuk; Prust-White-Moen; Halpern-Armstrong.
The defensive pairings were: Gorges-Diaz; Markov-Subban; Bouillon-Tinordi; Kaberle-Drewiske; Weber.

Arsène Wenger thinks the media make too much of "mind games" but he'd like to be involved in this year's exchanges - because it would mean Arsenal are title contenders.
The Premier League run-in is usually accompanied by claims that certain managers have been psyched out by their rivals and this year is no different with Sir Alex Ferguson and Roberto Mancini in the spotlight while the Manchester clubs compete for the title.
Wenger takes it all with a pinch of salt but he admits he misses being a part of the so-called psychological warfare.
"The newspapers always like that [mind games] but we could never measure the influence of that on the players," he said.
"I was in that situation many times - when you lose they think you lost the mind games and when you win they say you won the mind games. But I am not completely sure that it has a massive influence on the players.
"What is important is the direct environment of the team. If it unsettles them then it can have an influence. One famous example that the press always gives is Kevin Keegan [when he was Newcastle manager in 1996], so it can sometimes make a manager nervous, but Roberto Mancini looks quite calm.
"We observe it from the outside and I would prefer to be in there, because what you want is to be involved in the title race and we were not. That is basically sad. But I don't think that until now, from the mind games I have seen, it has had a direct influence on results."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

I have no idea what you do for a living, or if you have mouths to feed. If you do, maybe you can understand. Again, I'm not defending his actions or apologize whatever he did.
I do need to interject though and comment on this post of yours...
Let's not bring a story about having a wife and kids into this discussion. Because if you want to do that, I would like to point out that I also have a wife and two kids. I also work in the industry and sacrifice a lot of my time to help riders into the right gear. And yes, I do in fact help them with Unions if that is what they are interested in.
Why do I bring this up? Because it's ironic that you mention his family when that very man brought this stupid beef of his into my WORK EMAIL when I was asking for information on your products so I could list them online informatively/creatively. Then to add insult to injury, his cronies at the Boyne Mt test fest were trash talking under their breaths around me like I'm some type of ignorant fool.
So that's great he cares about his company and has a family to help support. How about showing that same level of respect for others in the same situation. NOT ONCE did I ever send your company an email about his actions. NOT ONCE did I EVER bring my employer into this beef.
At any rate, I'm 100% speaking the truth when I say it's nice to have you here. So far you have been 1000% more professional than the man you defend. And yes, by bringing up a story about his family you are in fact defending him.
Have a nice day.

Actually, if you look at our entire binding line, most of the models don't have it "filled in". The purpose is to alleviate binding to board contact, even if it's EVA. Even EVA gets stiff in the cold.
Thanks for the support!
[QUOTE=BurtonAvenger;539029]So who is this then besides anonymous C3 employee? Is it George Kleckner, Martino Fumagalli, John Malkoski, or someone else? Or is this the new account better associated with all of the above and rotating through the employees? Little transparency never hurts vs Internet anonymity.
George Kleckner.
Travis might be a great guy (haven't met him) but the whole using him as an example is kind of a bad one. Nothing against you or him, but if you remember when he rode "exclusively" for Bent Metal, he was riding Cartels.
Cartels are damn good bindings. The Atlas had only been on the market for a year when he tried them. He likes the Atlas better. Just being honest here.
Can we all just get it out there that Johan is the Global Sales Guy and technically as an employee/owner/Internet Warlock or whatever is a representative of your brand.
Johan is our US Sales Manager, business partner, product tester, an awesome person and great friend. And yes, a representative of our brands. The list of things he does for the brand is a very long one.
While it's great to have company people answering questions it does nothing when they get into a penis-measuring-shit-flinging-fanboy-rallying-troll-fest. And yes that's exactly what happened regardless of what anyone says. Bottom line it obviously had some impact on you as a brand because you are here now under this name addressing these points.
Yeah, I should be working on our catalog right now instead of doing this.
I don't even know what happened, and don't have time to read everything. I was informed that there was a shit storm on here and some people who are misinformed in regards to bindings. I'm not here to put out any fires, only to hopefully get some facts straight and hopefully gather some feedback. Thank you for yours.

So how does Union Sales Rep choose to deal with it? by pitting a forum of sycophants against other snowboarders for the promise of free gear. sad. very sad.
good luck with your damage control exercises.
You don't like Union or our Sales Manager. Got it.
|I actually think, and this is not to push kool aid on you, with a low profile heel in your boot that soft eva pad in the back is something you're gonna be into when you start riding them.

They're really similar bindings, I rode the Forces for years, and this is my second season on the Atlas base. The Force is a just a tad bit more responsive than the Force, but let us know how you like the Atlas after you get some days on them!

If you're talking ride-ability, I believe Alka, in that there's not enough of a difference in the highback to the way you ride. Sure do look cool though.
If you want more a feeling in the heel AND a team highback, see if you can still find some Union Holdens. They'd fit the bill.

Unless the color scheme makes you go from 6 to midnight whenever you look at them, probably not.
You'll pay a pretty penny for them as well if you end up finding a pair.
You'll be able to track them down, but it'll be hard/expensive to do so until the end of the season.
If you're talking ride-ability, I believe Alka, in that there's not enough of a difference in the highback to change the way you ride. Sure do look cool though.
