- - sand blasting to gell coat???? (http://www.sailnet.com/forums/gear-maintenance/5774-sand-blasting-gell-coat.html)
sand blasting to gell coat????
My boat is a 33 foot Islander and it has been painted many times. The last owner I believe just used a cheep primer and no top paint . Its needs to be taken down to the gel coat and re painted. Can I sand blast it. Or maybe soda blast??
sand blasting to gell coat????
If it''s cheap paint, I would think it would come off fairly easy with a paint remover. Sand blasting is not a precise removal method. If you work one spot to much trying to remove the paint you''ll end up making mini-craters with domes. A steel vessel would be the only one I''d sand blast! If the paint is peeling or flaking, try a pressure washer first, then remover, then wet-n-dry sandpaper (wet) or scotch-brite with a remover.
Have fun.........(|_<<..Del
sand blasting to gell coat????
Be careful with the pressure washer. I really liked the immediate response that I got with the tightest tip on the washer when I was removing barnacles from the steel keel. Trouble is that when you put it on the non-steel hull, it removes gel-coat too and down to fiberglass. Now I have several holes of gel coat to patch before I can paint. Summary- Don''t use the most powerful tip.
sand blasting to gell coat????
Obviously on the "Don''t use the most powerful tip". In my trade we use pressurized water to cut plates of steel. I''ve removed paint from one of my past cars at a carwash. Was I mad! Anyhow, one has to use a little judgment when trying any method of surface removable. Learn the capabilities of a peice of equipment before diving into a project. :) Good luck with yours.

The Red Knights, the group of wealthy investors trying to buy Manchester United, have recognised that their campaign has foundered by admitting that the club's "inflated valuation has made our goals less attainable".
The group, led by the Goldman Sachs chief economist Jim O'Neill, had hoped Manchester United's owners, the Glazer family, would have reviewed their not-for-sale stance as soon as an offer had been tabled. The US businessmen, however, insist they are committed to the club, with hopes that new mobile phone technology will boost revenues over the coming years, lifting the club's value. United have rejected an offer of more than £1bn from a Middle East consortium over the past few months.
"Persistent speculation in the media of inflated valuation aspirations has made our goals less attainable, as potential investors have strongly reinforced our views that we should not move forward at a price uneconomic for the future of the club," the Red Knights said.
The group said it "remained committed" to its goal – if not now, in the future. The Knights, which includes Mark Rawlinson, of the London law firm Freshfields, had hired Nomura as advisers.
The tacit withdrawal is a blow to the 158,860 fans who have joined the Manchester United Supporters Trust campaign to "fight the debt burden", according to its website. The Glazers have been unpopular with fans since they bought the club five years ago, mostly using debt. "Must supports the Red Knights reinforcement of their position that they will not pay above fair value for Manchester United," the supporters' group said. "This is in the best long-term interests of Manchester United FC and its supporters."
The publicity-shy Glazers still face a boycott by fans, some of whom delayed renewing their season tickets in support of the bid. This forced the club to be more aggressive in their attempt to sell new season tickets, telling executive members in an email that the renewal is now "a matter of urgency".
Manchester United posted a nine-month £66.5m loss last week as financing costs and one-off items more than offset rising media, matchday and commercial revenues.
The accounts of Red Football Ltd, United's holding company, showed a £40.6m one-off charge linked to closing down an interest rate swap – or protection that companies buy against interest rate increases – that the firm had to pay when it swapped its loan debt with a bond earlier this year. The company posted a £19m non-cash foreign exchange loss due to the increase in the US dollar against sterling, which makes the bonds that United issued in dollars more expensive.
United posted a £9.3m profit on the disposal of players that was far behind last year, when they sold Cristiano Ronaldo to Real Madrid for £80m. This shows that the model "doesn't work" unless there are player sales, said Philip Long, partner at PKF accountants and business advisers, who has worked on football deals.
The club face rising interest on £225m of payment-in-kind (PIK) loans, incurred in the 2005 acquisition. The PIK interest payments to investors, including hedge funds, are due to increase to 16.25% from 14.25% in August because of the firm's high debts. Apart from the PIK loans, United also have £520.9m of debt.
The bonds, sold in February at about 98p to the pound, trade between 93p and 94p, putting investors at a loss.

Many applications allow users to apply effects to text within a document. For example, warping, scaling, line effects as well as three dimensional effects may be applied to the text. Typically when these effects are applied to the text, each character within the text is converted to a bitmap and any effects are applied to each individual bitmap without taking into account the surrounding characters. Each of these individual bitmaps are then combined and displayed to show the entire word. The displayed word may have characters that overlap.
This Summary is provided to introduce a selection of concepts in a simplified form that are further described below in the Detailed Description. This Summary is not intended to identify key features or essential features of the claimed subject matter, nor is it intended to be used as an aid in determining the scope of the claimed subject matter.
Effects are applied to a shape that is generated from a merged text path. The merged text path is created from a text paths that are associated with a text run. The merged text path removes overlap and redundancy of the characters within the text run. In this way, when effects are applied to the shape that is generated from the merged text path there is no overlap between the characters. Boolean operations may be used to create the merged text path from which the shape is generated. The shape that is generated from the merged text path maintains the text path information that is associated with the text run such that additional effects may be applied to the shape.
Referring now to the drawings, in which like numerals represent like elements, various embodiment will be described. In particular,
Generally, program modules include routines, programs, components, data structures, and other types of structures that perform particular tasks or implement particular abstract data types. Other computer system configurations may also be used, including hand-held devices, multiprocessor systems, microprocessor-based or programmable consumer electronics, minicomputers, mainframe computers, and the like. Distributed computing environments may also be used where tasks are performed by remote processing devices that are linked through a communications network. In a distributed computing environment, program modules may be located in both local and remote memory storage devices.

The mass storage device 14 is connected to the CPU 5 through a mass storage controller (not shown) connected to the bus 12. The mass storage device 14 and its associated computer-readable media provide non-volatile storage for the computer 100. Although the description of computer-readable media contained herein refers to a mass storage device, such as a hard disk or CD-ROM drive, the computer-readable media can be any available media that can be accessed by the computer 100.
By way of example, and not limitation, computer-readable media may comprise computer storage media and communication media. Computer storage media includes volatile and non-volatile, removable and non-removable media implemented in any method or technology for storage of information such as computer-readable instructions, data structures, program modules or other data. Computer storage media includes, but is not limited to, RAM, ROM, EPROM, EEPROM, flash memory or other solid state memory technology, CD-ROM, digital versatile disks ("DVD"), or other optical storage, magnetic cassettes, magnetic tape, magnetic disk storage or other magnetic storage devices, or any other medium which can be used to store the desired information and which can be accessed by the computer 100
According to various embodiments, computer 100 may operate in a networked environment using logical connections to remote computers through a network 18, such as the Internet. The computer 100 may connect to the network 18 through a network interface unit 20 connected to the bus 12. The network connection may be wireless and/or wired. The network interface unit 20 may also be utilized to connect to other types of networks and remote computer systems. The computer 100 may also include an input/output controller 22 for receiving and processing input from a number of other devices, including a keyboard, mouse, or electronic stylus (not shown in
As mentioned briefly above, a number of program modules and data files may be stored in the mass storage device 14 and RAM 9 of the computer 100, including an operating system 16 suitable for controlling the operation of a networked personal computer, such as the WINDOWS XP operating system from MICROSOFT CORPORATION of Redmond, Wash. The mass storage device 14 and RAM 9 may also store one or more program modules. In particular, the mass storage device 14 and the RAM 9 may store one or more application programs 10. The application program(s) 10 is operative to apply effects to text. According to one embodiment, the application program(s) 10 comprises the MICROSOFT OFFICE suite of application programs from MICROSOFT CORPORATION. For example, application program 10 may be MICROSOFT WORD, POWERPOINT, EXCEL, ACCESS, PUBLISHER, OUTLOOK and the like. Other application programs that implement text effects may also be utilized. For instance, email programs, desktop publishing programs, presentation programs, and any other type of program that allows effects to be applied to text may be utilized.
The application program 10 may utilize an effects manager 26. Although effects manager 26 is shown separately from application program 10, it may be included within application program 10 or at some other location. For example, the effects manager 26 may be included in a graphics pipeline (See element 220 in
Merge module 210 is configured to create a merged text path for a text run when instructed by effects engine 26. The merged text path is a single path from which a shape may be generated such that effects may be applied. Although merge module 210 is illustrated within effects manager 26 it may reside in many different locations within system 200. For example, merge module 210 may reside within application 10, operating system 16, and graphics pipeline 220. Alternatively, merge module 210 may be located independently from other modules within the system. Merge module 210 is configured to receive each text path for each letter in the text run (e.g. text run 202) and then compute a merged text path for the entire text run. According to one embodiment, merge module 210 uses Boolean operation to compute the merged text path. Alternatively, merge module 210 may be configured to create a merged text path for just the characters within the text run to which effects are to be applied. Each text path includes a set of points that make up the boundary for each character. Generally, merge module 210 computes a merged text path that represents the boundary (outline) for the entire text run. In the present example, the boundary for text run 202 includes the six characters making up "Letter." The boundary for the entire text run defines the union of the characters defined by their boundaries identified by the text paths. Merge module 210 removes the redundant pieces of the merged characters within the text run. The effects engine 26 may then create a shape from the single merged text path to which effects may be applied. The shape that is generated represents the entire merged shape. Since the merge module 210 eliminates the overlap between the shapes within the text run, a non-redundant 3-D model may be created from the text path.
For instance, in the present example, effects engine 26 has processed the text run "Letter" using merge module 210; applied effects to the generated shape representing "Letter" and then provided the graphics pipeline with the displayed version (230) of "Letter" which is shown on display 28.
Text run 325 illustrates the overlap that results when effects are applied to a text run without generating a shape from a merged text path. As can be seen, each letter within the word "Letter" overlaps another letter.
Text run 334 illustrates the word "Letter" created using a shape that is generated from a merged text path and having the following effects applied: line, fill (gradient) and shadow effect applied to the text.
Text run 336 illustrates a 3-D model with bevel and extrusion created using the merged text path for the word "Letter." The extrusion is created by duplicating the shape that was generated from the merged text path at a different depth and connecting the two shapes. The bevel is created by refining an extruded 3-D model of a shape by applying a profile to the edges of a 3-D model.

When reading the discussion of the routines presented herein, it should be appreciated that the logical operations of various embodiments are implemented (1) as a sequence of computer implemented acts or program modules running on a computing system and/or (2) as interconnected machine logic circuits or circuit modules within the computing system. The implementation is a matter of choice dependent on the performance requirements of the computing system implementing the invention. Accordingly, the logical operations illustrated and making up the embodiments described herein are referred to variously as operations, structural devices, acts or modules. These operations, structural devices, acts and modules may be implemented in software, in firmware, in special purpose digital logic, and any combination thereof.
After a start operation, the process flows to operation 410 where a text run is received. Typically, the text run includes characters that make up a word and/or a sentence. More or less characters, however, may be included within the text run.
Moving to operation 420, a merged text path is created. The merged text path is created from the text paths that are associated with each character within the text run. The merged text path includes shape information for the outline of the text run. According to one embodiment, Boolean operations are used to create the merged text path (See
Transitioning to operation 430, a shape is generated from the merged text path. As discussed herein, the shape represents the merged text path that has removed the redundant portions.
Flowing to operation 440, any desired effects may be applied to the generated shape. The text path information is not lost when the shape is generated. The shape can still undergo further transformations, such as warping, scaling and other effects. The process then flows to an end operation where the process returns to processing other actions.
After a start operation, the process flows to operation 510 where the geometry associated with each character within the text run is received. The received geometry generally consists of 2D regions represented in terms of their boundaries. Each boundary is a collection of closed figures that may be represented by three classes of points. These classes of points include points inside the boundary, points outside the boundary, and points on the boundary. Generally, given a point its containment may be determined by casting an infinite ray from the point, tallying its intersections with the boundary, and then applying some rule.
This in/out containment query on a single point is straightforward, but some queries and constructions require deeper analysis and processing of the boundary itself. Generally, the non-intersecting pieces of the boundary for the text run are examined to identify redundant pieces and then the non-redundant pieces are classified according to their orientation relative to the region having effects applied.
Moving to operation 520, the geometry is broken into chains. According to one embodiment, the curved shapes within the geometry are approximated by polygons. As defined herein, a chain is a segment of the polygon with vertices in descending height. According to one embodiment, the polygon's vertices are processed in descending order. The order may be lexicographic, by y coordinate, or by x coordinate when y coordinates are equal. According to one embodiment, the chain has a generic pointer which is used for holding additional data that it may need. The chains are inserted in a main chain list that is sorted by the height of their head vertices. According to one embodiment, ascending vertex sequences are constructed as chains in reverse with their original direction recorded.
Transitioning to operation 530, the vertices of the chains are scanned. According to one embodiment, the vertices are traversed in decreasing height. The most recently processed vertex on a chain is the chain's cursor. The next vertex down the chain is the chain's candidate vertex. A chain becomes active when its head is encountered, and is deactivated after its last vertex has been processed.
According to one embodiment, two working lists of chain references are maintained including an active chains list and a candidate chains list. The active chains list contains the chains that have edges at the current processing height, sorted horizontally from left to right. The candidate chains list contains the active chains sorted by the height of their candidate vertices. According to one embodiment, the vertex coordinates rounded to a grid of integers. In addition to their approximate coordinates, new vertices that are formed by edge intersections store the information of the intersecting segments that formed them. Instead of comparing approximate numbers, queries on such vertices compare the expressions that define the numbers that need to be compared. Interval arithmetic is used to compute an interval that is guaranteed to contain the numerical result of every computation. Comparing the computation results can then be done unambiguously as long as the compared intervals are disjoint, which occurs most of the time. When the compared intervals do overlap, the process resorts to computation done by an exact arithmetic package for a definite answer. The scanning loop 530 comprises three different operations, including: splitting the chains at intersections 540; computing junctions 550 and emitting closed figures 560. These operations may occur repeatedly during the scanning operation.
Operation 540 splits the chain at its intersections. The first (highest) vertex in a chain is its head, and the last (lowest) vertex is its tail. When any other vertex is processed, the edge below that vertex is examined for intersections with its left and right neighbors in the active list. When an intersection is found the chains are split. The newly split chains (below the intersection) are inserted in the master chain list. A version of the Bentley-Ottman algorithm for identifying the intersections between a given set of line segments may be utilized. A chain in the main chain list is activated by inserting it into the working lists (the active list and the candidate list) and its cursor is then placed at its head. After its tail has been processed, an active chain is removed from the working lists. If a chain is being split (at an intersection) it is removed from the candidate list and reinserted according the height of the intersection vertex, which is now the chain's candidate (and tail) vertex.
When a vertex is picked for processing from the candidate list, the chain is removed from that list, the cursor is moved to the candidate, and then processed. If there is a vertex below it, it becomes the candidate, and the chain is inserted in the candidate list according to the height of that candidate vertex. If there is no candidate vertex, a junction is set there, and the chain is deactivated after the junction is processed. Operation 540 may occur at any vertex when it is processed.
Junctions are computed at operation 550. When a new chain is activated, or when the tail of an existing chain is processed, a junction is established and populated with all the chains whose heads or tails coincide with it. The former are called head-chains and the latter tail-chains. If triggered by activating a new chain then the junction's location among the active chains is set by examining its position relative to their active edges. Neighboring chains are gathered and added to the junction as tail-chains if their tails coincide with the junction. Additional chains are added to a junction from the master list as head-chains if their heads coincides with the junction. The head-chains are sorted from left to right by their direction at the junction. Any pair of chains whose first edges are collinear are split at the tip of the shorter edge. The junction's leftmost and rightmost head-chains are tested and split if they intersect with their neighbors. If the junction has no head-chains then its left and right neighbors (who will become each other's neighbors after the junction is gone) are tested and split if they intersect. All the new head-chains are then classified (as left, right or redundant) using a classifier object. There are currently two types of classifiers. One for classifying a single shape based on its fill rule and another which in addition classifies the boundary of two shapes based on mutual containment of each other's edges and marks redundant chains based on the type of Boolean operation.
Operation 560, emits closed figures. Emitting the closed figures for a region refers to breaking the region's boundary into non-intersecting pieces, removing the redundant ones, and connecting the non-redundant remaining ones into simple consistently-oriented loops. Operation 560 may occur when any junction is processed. The process then moves to an end block and returns to processing other actions.
Starting with a string of chains having a pair of head-chains (610) a tail-chain is connected to a head-chain (620). Two tail chains are connected and their string of chains are concatenated if they are distinct (630). A closed figure is harvested if they belong to the string of chains (640).
The decision as to which actions to take is based on the classification of chains (as left, right or redundant), and on the counts and parity of head and tail chains at the junction.
The above specification, examples and data provide a complete description of the manufacture and use of the composition of the invention. Since many embodiments of the invention can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention, the invention resides in the claims hereinafter appended.

After I sent the link I discovered the Champagne is one of the older
varieties and not as much in favor as it once was. I know nothing of
the others except I've heard good comments about Big Jim. I've got the
loquat chapter from Morton's "Fruit for Warm Climates" in PDF. I can
send it if you want it. The information re varieties is dated but the
rest of it is good stuff.

I have figured out where I'm going to plant it, and in fact have
plans to dig out a couple of other ornamentals so that I can plant a

about maintenance (the whole spraying for peach leaf curl thing :

Going to go check out a couple more nurseries tomorrow to see what
they've got....
Oh- PS I did move my huge agave last weekend. It seems to be doing
fine. God was it ever heavy!!! That thing must hold about 20 gallons

And today I moved my spice bush into the back garden (dug out some

On a whim, we got "cheap seats" for the CSO's performance of Northern Lights. Since we live a couple of blocks from the Taft (where they are playing for the season during the Music Hall renovations), it wasn't a big time or money investment. The CSO has been disappointing the last few times I've attended -- technically competent, but soulless...
We have been to several performances and have never been disappointed. We were able to meet a few members of the orchestra afterward and sense a sincerely family atmosphere among the orchestra as well as between them and the community. Nice variety of age groups enjoying classical music which is good to see
We first visited CSO in September 2015 for season opening. We enjoy the performance so much until we decide to visit again last week, even if we have to drive more than 4 hours. We parked at Cincinnati City parking for $5 dollar. We will definitely visited CSO again in the future...
We went to the symphony on a date night. It was so amazing! Music Hall in all its glory and Spector. The concert pianist Kirill Gerstein was remarkable. He spoke to us in an intimate way- felt like he was talking right to me! The conductor Louis Langree was also amazing. We came out of this performance in a bit...
Truly world class orchestra in a beautiful, historic venue loved by all Cincinnatians. Many options for musical selections and performance days and times. Iconic Cincinnati at its finest.
We loved our experience at the Music Now Festival with the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra, collaborating with The National. Both musical groups were superb and the Music Hall was stunning. We will continue to watch the schedule for other opportunities to visit!
An absolute "World Class" venue, renowned for unmatched acoustics, it is a perfect showcase for some of the most talented musicians in the world. The CSO was instrumental in speeding acceptance of the Compact Disc (CD) as an acceptable medium for presenting true High Fidelity music!
Beautiful building, great symphony and conductor. We had the pleasure of going early and having a pre symphony interview with Andre Previn. Such a wonderful time. Wonderful sparkling wine and chocolates at the concessions. The orchestra , the music the conductor.....simply magical. Only negative .....no cabs afterwards.... call Uber before you leave. And head over to the Netherland Plaza for...

Thanksgiving weekend we attended the Cincinnati Symphony performance of a Tchaikovsky concerto and symphony. I have never been at a performance (and I've been to many) of such quality!

We also attended a performance there last year which was great as...

Little but cozy apartment in quite neighborhood and close to metro station.
It's a little bit smal for 4 people but for one family (2 grown ups and 2 children) is OK.
There is place for 3 people to sleep at mezzanine but fourth has to sleep on the madrass on floor which is not that best solution in the cold nights.
Not that very bright as in the discription but we used the flat only to sleep, rest of the time we where out and sightseeing the beautiful Paris
A while ago we where there, but it is a nice appartment. The supermarked on the other side of the road. Easy to come from the appartment to the city.
Positive: cozy, but still big enough for 5 people; good location - only 5 min to the metro station, many restaurants and shops in the neighborhood; bed in the bed room and couch comfortable, friendly neighbors
Negative: the extra folding bed for the 5th person is literally falling apart and should be changed; the bathroom is in the corridor between bedroom and the living room- there is no privacy and no information about it at the web site, the biggest problem is the dirt - the whole bathroom tiles were in stains- Flip Flops under the shower is a "must"; the walls are grey because of the dirt, the door around door-handle even darker..
I was there with my friends, so it was ok -we cleaned a little at the beginning and we were most of the time in the city anyway. However I would never stay in this apartment with my child.
Thank you, David, Sébastien, Ly Da. It was a wonderful stay in Paris. The apartment is very nice, clean, convenient, quiet, well equipped and very well located. We will come back to your apartment.
The appartement was not clean. There was hair in the bathroom and shit in the toilet. We had first to clean the appartement because we could not stay there in the condition like we found it. Also the floor was not clean, my soks where black because of the floor.
Very good location in very nice area of Montmartre;
Could be better organised inside! with more care in cleaning!
We had to give a hand to make the place feel better!
Lovely spacious apartment in a great location. I would recommend it to friends, if you don't mind sharing a relatively open WC and shower area!
Thank you Sebastien, Delphine, Amina &Johan for a great stay!
Nice cozy clean appartment. Enough space for 5 women. The appartment is located on the busy street near the bastille, but it's very quiet once you enter the complex. The only problem was the wifi. I didn't get the passwords on the email and connecting to the wifi was only possible from the sleeping room. Other than that, I would recommend this place again.
Good localization. Good flat.
I'd say for the price, i would have expected something more. Very small not at all clean apt. The kitchenette and (dirty) toilet in one room only with sliding doors isnt good. No iron board. And a horrible smell of rot in the kitchen!! But on the other hand a grand view of Sacre Ceur, surprisingly good bed, calm, great location and hot water. We only stayed 3 nights and were out most of the time. If we were to stay longer we would pick something else.

Big Red
A simple classic that is a huge seller in our store. Created in Waco, TX back in 1937 it was originally known as Sun Tang Red Cream Soda. This is the original red cream soda. In 1959 the name was changed to Big Red after the president at the time heard a golf caddie refer to the soda by that name. Until the 1970's it was sold only in the central and south Texas region. Tasting like bubble gum the flavor is brought about by mixing orange and lemon oils with traditional vanilla like other cream sodas.

LONG BEACH TOWNSHIP — The Southern Regional High School boys and girls swimming teams and their fans never stopped cheering throughout the double-dual meet Tuesday with Toms River North at the St. Francis Community Center pool.
The Rams teammates hugged each other, and the Southern coaches high-fived their swimmers as they walked past them following races.
Toms River North won the boys meet 101-69 and North took the girls meet 91-73.
But this time it wasn't all about the outcome.
The occasion was Southern's first meet at its home pool since Hurricane Sandy. The St. Francis pool was re-opened on Jan. 7 following water testing, and Southern and neighboring rival Barnegat began practicing there again.
"My big goal was to have everybody swim today," Southern boys swimming coach John Schulze said. "We have 35 on our roster and they all got to swim. We love to swim at home. We have a fast pool."
The Southern boys got wins from Ryan McHugh in the 100 butterfly and Dan O'Hara in the 100 breaststroke.
"It felt good to be back in our home pool," said O'Hara, 16, a junior from Ship Bottom on Long Beach Island. "I felt like we're in good shape and I dropped 0.15 seconds off my best time. I don't think anyone got discouraged this year."
The Rams girls team of Becca Phillips, sister Ali Phillips, Kellie Gresham and Bethany Hartney won the 400 freestyle relay.
"I'm pleasantly shocked by how they swam today," Southern girls coach Bill Entrikin said. "We had a lot of seniors coming back with personal bests, and you don't see that when you haven't been in the water. I credit that to our dry land workouts. We had coed weight training with the boys team. We probably had a lot of girls who never touched a weight before. It's paying off. We made the most of our time not in our pool. We're grateful to the Ocean Club for their help."
Several girls qualified for the Shore Conference Championships later this season.
"We've worked really hard the last two weeks," said Katie Loftus, an 18-year-old senior from Harvey Cedars on LBI. "You look over and you see your teammates cheering and you find a kick you didn't know you had."
When Hurricane Sandy left Southern and Barnegat without a home pool, both schools made arrangements to practice on a limited basis at the Ocean Club in the Cedar Run section of Stafford Township. Barnegat found some additional pool time at another facility.
"I won't say it was the only pool available, but we felt we had to keep the practices close in the community," Southern athletic director Chuck Donohue Jr. said last week. "We had people whose houses were displaced. It would have been difficult to put people on a bus and go to Atlantic City or Toms River, even if the time was available. The Ocean Club was right down the road on Route 9 and the kids could get there easily."
Southern hoped to back into its home pool sooner, but it didn't happen.
There was never any damage to the pool itself from the hurricane, but work needed to be done on the heater, which took on salt water. Also, water got underneath the building, and work needed to be done to make sure it was structurally sound.
"It was a great day for us to come back (on Jan. 7)," Schulze said. "The first three practices we were able to bring up the swims and we worked on starts and turns."
Southern had postponed its December meets, while Barnegat had three double-duals before St. Francis reopened. The Bengals boys team beat Manchester Township 110-53 on Jan. 10 in its debut at St. Francis. Southern opened up the season the same day against Jackson Memorial at Ocean County College. Southern lost the boys meet 113-57 and the girls meet 100.5-69.5.
"Getting back in our pool felt like the first day of practice," said Cody Dentroux, 16, a junior from the Manahawkin section of Stafford Township. "The first meet was exciting. We have a lot of new swimmers. I'm super-glad the meets were postponed because we're not in midseason shape."
Southern still will have a season. "All of our (Shore Conference A South) division meets will be held, and as many of the others as possible," Donohue said. "Maybe it's not the best of conditions but you still have to go when things are not going your way. Our community was rocked by Sandy, but we're coming back."
