Bill Webb
May 18, 2009
Bill Webb, who has spent the last 24 years with the Tennessee men's track and field program, announced Monday he is retiring as head coach at the end of the 2009 season.
"I'm proud of being a part of the great track and field tradition at Tennessee," Webb said. "I have many fond memories of working with such fine coaches and athletes at this University."
Webb's 14 seasons as Tennessee's head coach have produced many of the program's proudest moments, including two NCAA and four SEC team championships. He became the first coach in program history to win back-to-back NCAA titles after following up the 2001 NCAA outdoor crown with the 2002 NCAA indoor championship.
Webb trails only Gen. Robert R. Neyland in the national title rankings in the Tennessee men's athletics department. Neyland won four national football titles (1930, 1940, 1950 and 1951). Webb directed two NCAA track and field championship efforts (2001 outdoor and 2002 indoor) and served as assistant head coach for Tennessee's 1991 NCAA outdoor championship run. Tennessee coaching hall of famer Stan Huntsman also notched two NCAA titles during his stint in Knoxville.
Tennessee athletes under Webb's direction marched among the national elite. In his 14 seasons as head coach, 18 UT athletes were crowned national champions in individual events, and 137 earned All-America honors. As a nationally-renowned field event and multi-event instructor, Webb personally instructed 13 NCAA champions, 57 SEC champions and 82 NCAA Division I All-Americas. His athletes have also rewritten the all-time top-10 lists at Tennessee, a feat made even more impressive considering the program's storied history and the caliber of competition.
The primary reason for those stellar team and individual accomplishments is that Webb placed an emphasis on fielding a complete track and field team across the full spectrum of events. Further evidence of that is the fact that Tennessee earned 10 dual meet championships under Webb, including eight in 11 years from 1996-2006. The dual meet championship provides the best indicator of a complete track and field team. Webb's dual-meet record, compiled in non-championship scored meets of eight teams or fewer, reflected the Volunteers' versatility. Webb rang up a sterling 52-1 record in such meets for a .981 winning percentage.
Tennessee's excellence in evaluating, signing and developing talent in every event area ranks as one of Webb's proudest accomplishments. Though not surprising for one of the nation's most respected multi-event coaches, Tennessee's strength and balance across all the events resulted in the Volunteers earning All-America acclaim multiple times in every event area -- sprints, hurdles, middle distance, distance, relays, vertical jumps, horizontal jumps, throws and multi-events -- during the Webb era.
Nurturing Tennessee's tradition of track and field excellence, Webb's four SEC titles as a head coach kept the Volunteers in front of the pack in the nation's finest conference. Many track and field observers believe assembling a team to capture the SEC title ranks as a more daunting prospect than winning NCAA gold because of the depth needed to scale the team awards stand in the SEC, which has been the best among track and field conferences during the entirety of the Webb era. Webb set the tone for his head coaching career early as his charges took the 1996 SEC indoor title in his inaugural conference championship as head man for the Vols. Webb went on to assemble some of the deepest and most talented squads in program history to capture SEC outdoor crowns in 2001, 2002 and 2007. He is the only coach in the SEC to top Arkansas at both the indoor and outdoor conference championship, winning three times outdoors and once indoors. He also 10 times directed the Vols to the highest finish among eastern division teams at a conference meet.
Webb intended for his athletes to leave Tennessee with not only school records and All-America certificates, but also a diploma. Since Webb became head coach in 1996, Tennessee leads the conference with 197 selections to the SEC Academic Honor Roll for track and field/cross country, including 15 in 2008. During most of the decade, the track and field/cross country Vols averaged about 20 members per semester boasting GPAs of 3.0 or better.
On the international stage, Tennessee's pipeline to the Olympics and world championships has never flowed stronger than during the Webb era. Webb has coached 36 Olympic Trials competitors since 1984. He personally instructed athletes at four Olympic Games and seven world championship meets.
In the decathlon, Webb's success is staggering. He became the first person to coach an NCAA and world champion decathlete in the same year, as Stephen Harris and Tom Pappas accomplished the feat in 2003. Pappas, under Webb's direction, set the NCAA decathlon record at 8,463 and went on to post a top career score of 8,784, which ranks third on the all-time U.S. list. He coached 27 other athletes to scores of 7,250 or higher and five decathletes (Pappas, Brian Brophy, Aric Long, Harris and Jangy Addy) past the 8,000-point mark in the 10-event test of versatility and stamina. He coached four NCAA decathlon champions and 18 top-five finishers in the NCAA decathlon since 1990. Webb is the only person to coach three scorers in the NCAA decathlon in the same year -- and he did it twice (the NCAA championship teams of 1991 and 1992). Under Webb's direction, 13 Volunteers won the SEC decathlon title since 1989. Long and Chris Helwick were also high-point scorers at SEC meets, racking up 24 and 28 points, respectively.
Webb rarely tutored just one multi-event standout as in 1991 he had four athletes post an average score of 7,705 during the season, breaking a record held by Mt. St. Mary's for 10 years. In 1992, his decathletes broke their own record with an average score of 7,912. The 1992 group also set records for three-man decathlon scoring average at 8,128 and two-man decathlon scoring average at 8,257. Those feats were especially impressive considering that Webb's teams were the first to set such marks with every athlete being an American citizen.
In the javelin, one of his other specialty events, Webb coached Tom Petranoff to a world record and Bob Roggy to an American record. At Tennessee, Webb mentored Leigh Smith to a school record in the javelin. Webb also coached 10 shot putters beyond 60 feet and 14 high jumpers above seven feet.
Webb and former volunteer coach Jim Bemiller coached Tim Mack and Lawrence Johnson to lofty heights in the pole vault. Mack, an NCAA champion, won the gold medal with an Olympic-record clearance of 19-6 1/4 to highlight a 2004 dream season. Johnson, the former pole vault American record holder and four-time NCAA champion, went on to take the 2000 Olympic silver medal and 2001 world indoor championship. More recently, Webb has teamed with former UT All-America and SEC Champion Russ Johnson to coach Tennessee pole vault competitors to eight-consecutive conference championships (four indoor and four outdoor).
Webb earned nods from the U.S. Olympic Committee as its National Track and Field Coach of the Year in 2003 after being selected from a pool of top collegiate and professional coaches across the country. He was named NCAA National Coach of the Year for the national championship seasons of 2001 outdoors and 2002 indoors. Webb also garnered SEC Coach of the Year three times (1996 indoor, 2001 outdoor and 2007 outdoor).
Meanwhile, Webb had ample opportunity to build an international coaching resume as he was chosen by USA Track and Field to serve as head coach for the U.S. decathletes in a 2001 dual meet versus Germany. He also served as an assistant coach at the 1991 Pan American Games in Cuba and the 1993 World Championships in Stuttgart, Germany.
Webb's life's work consists of 39 seasons in the sport, 24 of those patrolling the infield at Tennessee's Tom Black Track at LaPorte Stadium.
Prior to taking the reins of the Tennessee program in the summer of 1995, Webb served 10 accomplished years as assistant head coach for the Vols. He tutored athletes in that span that contributed to four team conference championships and the 1991 national crown.
Before joining the Tennessee coaching staff, Webb coached at Florida, Southern Illinois and Indiana, which collectively captured nine conference titles during his tenure. Webb began his coaching career as a graduate assistant at Indiana in 1971 before moving on to take the head coaching position in 1973 at West Georgia, where he was named the league's coach of the year in each of his two seasons there. He had assistant coaching stops at Florida (1975-76) and Southern Illinois (1976-78) before beginning a seven-year stint as head coach at Cal State Northridge in 1979. Webb was named the California Collegiate Athletic Association's Coach of the Year in 1985, and his teams finished in the top eight every year in the NCAA Division II meet.
He produced a total of 51 Division II All-Americas while at Cal State Northridge and West Georgia College.
Webb is married to the former Patricia Hill. They have a son, Kevin, who recently received his doctoral degree from the University of California-San Diego.
UT athletics director Mike Hamilton has named George Watts interim head coach. A former Vols track and field athlete, Watts has served as assistant coach since 1985. UT will conduct a search for Webb's replacement.

A strong dash of eclecticana pulled off with imaginative flair, much-feted Chor Bizarre at Albemarle Street, Mayfair, offers a distinctive ambience. Inspired by the 'Thieves Market', a market unique to most ancient Indian cities, no two table settings are alike, no furniture is similar, yet a strange whimsy draws it all together.
Chor Bizarre's fabulous interiors have been given a brand new makeover and are now as resplendent as ever. The gorgeous furnishings and rich décor are a collector's delight, sourced from the various bazaars of India and tastefully arranged to please the eye. Vintage furniture, antiques, innovative touches such as a canopied old world four-poster for seating, combined with old world memorabilia and heritage fabrics, create an arresting landscape for an unforgettable meal.
It's not surprising that Chor Bizarre, the London branch of New Delhi's eternal favourite, has been adjudged 'One of the 50 most romantic places in the world' and included 'amongst the Top 10 Restaurants in London for Fun and Atmosphere' by The Independent, as well as 'The best North Indian Restaurant in the UK' by The Cobra Good Curry Guide.

Actress Lindsay Lohan was warned she faced going to prison today when she appeared in a Los Angeles court on charges over a car crash.
Superior Court Judge Stephanie Sautner shook her head when she saw Lohan seated with her lawyer, just months after the judge had warned the star to grow up and stay out of trouble.
The star of the movie "Mean Girls," who has been in and out of rehab and jail since 2007, wore a black sleeveless dress and looked tired.
She was required to attend the pretrial hearing involving three misdemeanour counts filed after a car crash last summer.
Lohan has pleaded not guilty to lying to police, reckless driving and obstructing officers from performing their duties.
Judge Sautner previously sent her to jail, placed her under house arrest and forced her to perform morgue clean-up duty in another case.
She warned Lohan today that she could face jail for a possible probation violation, even if she is acquitted of the counts filed after her sports car was in collision with a rubbish truck.
Lohan was on probation at the time of the accident and could be sentenced to 245 days in jail if a judge decides her actions in the crash were a violation of her sentence in a theft case.
Lohan's new trial date is March 18.
Her appearance in Los Angeles had been in doubt because of an upper respiratory infection.
"Glad to see you're feeling better," Judge Sautner told Lohan at the hearing.

Lara Logan Interviewed by WMC Founding President Carol Jenkins
| November 29, 2011
In this brief interview, Lara Logan discusses the sexual assault she experienced while covering the celebrations in Tahrir Square following Hosni Mubarak's resignation in Egypt.
Logan speaks about the victim-blaming she endured after going public about her experience and emphasizes how prevalent sexual harassment still is for women–in and out of the workplace. Sexual harassment is not merely about making women uncomfortable, she says. It's about "denying women the place they rightfully deserve in society."
By speaking publicly about her experience in Egypt, Logan changed the conversation about the risk and experience of sexual violence for female journalists. However, Logan asserts, "This will not define me. My best work is yet to come."


text: Ok guys I know this must have come up before but I can not find an answer. Well many here may remember I have been looking for an Allante project. My neighbor has a 93 that has been garaged for some time now. I want it but the North Star failed after a rebuild so it will need an engine. I would love to buy a rebuild motor or better yet put a rebuilt 4.5 in it. If it is not a lot of rewiring then it would be a great project. Is this possible?

welcome entredeux, thanks for writing on my blog. I have to get to work, but I am reading and will respond when I can.
Derby, I like your code word idea. will think on that more...
Mono, I'm just sad that you are not in this with your all because of who I am and my actions within that... I don't want half ass. I hurt because of that.... sigh....
You've got more of me than anyone else ever has. A more complete picture of who I am, more trust, more depth and more understadning of how I have become the person I am. What you are getting is yours as long as you want it in the package it comes. You're hardly getting half assed my love. But sorry in any case.

To you both.
It's hard to find that thin line that makes it work. I understand completely, we're in the midst of a similar struggle.
Where is the line between open and honest, and respectfully not rubbing something in the face of someone who doesn't wish to be a part of that something....
(I wrote it that vaguely on purpose-NOT pointedly).
I just wanted to say I'm so proud of you both for working through the emotions and circumstances together and continuing to battle together to find the workable solution.
"Love As Thou Wilt"
So the non sexual bf is named Leo? Gave me a start to see him called by name instead of NSBF. Is it b/c you can see it's not really non-sexual, even tho you don't actually have sex?
I can see why Mono was jealous. A bit too close for comfort, just on the other side of the wall like that.
Love withers under constraint; its very essence is liberty. It is compatible neither with envy, jealousy or fear. It is there most pure, perfect and unlimited when its votaries live in confidence, equality and unreserve. -- Shelley
Mags (poly, F, 61) loving Pixie (poly, F, 39) since January 2009, living together since 2013
"Master," (mono, M, 36), Pixie's Dom for 3+ years
Well its about to become non sexual by your definition again Magdyln as I have been told today that she is the primary and calls the shots for their relationship. He is going with her boundaries and I am now waiting to hear what those are.
They have a heirarchy arrangement it seems and I must adjust. Apparently its okay for her to have other men in her life, but its not okay that he be close to another woman. She has really low self esteem and feelings of self worth and has been jealous for some time of my being in his life. Maybe more than that is going on, but that is what I have been told. She has been unable to find someone who will love and appreciate her as he does. Its too bad, and I feel for her, but I need to live with that as a result. I don't mind boundaries so much as the hypocrisy.
I am going at her pace as she is the one struggling. What else can I do. Nothing I guess but wait. I told him today that I will go back to monthly meets at coffee shops etc and we shall see how it goes. With their boundaries in place and Mono's it could very well be not worth it. I admit that. We shall see.
Right now I am feeling completely defeated and hurt. I don't take kindly to my freedom being squelched by those I don't chose to, so there is some anger there also. I'm being patient though and empathetic for the most part in terms of communication. I think she deserves that respect.
I really don't know much but the little bits I get from him and piece together, so I could be way off. He's not the best at being forth coming with concrete information that I can work with so I have asked him point blank what boundaries I have to work with in order to not mess around with their stuff as its not my business. What my business is is what happens next and as we didn't discuss any boundaries on his side before now we damned well better. I need some very firm ones to work with before we go any further.
I know where I stand with Mono now, we worked that out I think. I can move forward on that end, I need this worked out, then a date can be set to meet again. I'm all business tonight. Fuck it, when it comes down to it, emotions aside, its all business complete with protocol and procedure. I'm on it. Must be a full moon coming up
I have heard through the grape vine that some people expect that we have all our shit together because we come across that way on here. To the larger extent we do, but we are also in perpetual motion and change and no on ever knows what will come up. We have worked out many things and do have a great deal of knowledge about how poly has worked for us, but as far as I am concerned poly/mono relationships are never going to be "worked out." it is not possible I don't think. There will always be problems and compromises and sacrifice.
If you have been reading here you will know that I believe a compromise means that boundaries are not settled yet. Mono and I will always be in a perpetual struggle with compromises. I hate it, I find it completely exhausting and frustrating but we must stay in a state of compromise as we will never find a boundary agreement that suits both of us I don't think. Its just not possible, so hang on to your seats and enjoy the ride, because I am not giving up and neither is he. We will continue to battle it out because we love each other. Funnily enough that love is intensified for me because of our struggle. The passion has increased ten fold and my pussy hurts

Thank you all for sharing so openly. I think, if we are all realistic people, we know that everything isn't always flowing smoothly in your world and, in order for the relationship to grow and continue to work, you must be pushed, challenged, tried ... that is how we gain in these instances. That is part of the joys of truly experiencing 'life'. It presents you with the opportunity to build your self and world through trial and error.
I completely understand the current issues with the metamour. You can only be you and genuinely express your intent. As we know, many people (men & women) are just not ready for the self reflection required to do this. They haven't learned how to identify and break down their emotions and how to conquer the reactions they have been taught are the correct ones, in this society, when approaching these alternatives. It could be a beautiful thing if only they would open up to learning and embracing.
Though, my metamour, nor male partner (P), has not voiced it to me, I believe some issues that have arose over the last few weeks in their relationship has been related to me in some sense. I know he reached out to me when I was out of town after they had a disagreement but he did not share details but just sought my presence. Then, she mentioned via text that she had been feeling emotional and insecure about some things this past weekend. Since we transitioned, from a triad to a vee, she and I don't communicate much and I believe, as time goes on, the relationship I have with P is going to suffer because of that but I am willing to continue to give my all to him until that time comes.
I'm glad you guys are working through your emotions and thoughts and I will keep you in my meditations.
thanks Eklctc...
Mono thought of my postion tonight of one where I am in a beautiful pasture and love where I am at. Feel right here, there is space beyond that worth discovering but not an option.
I see it as like the movie "its a wonderful life." I watched it for the first time the night after I saw Leo. I feel like the man in the movie... I have everything but I was meant to be a great explorer. The world is out there and although I have something wonderful, every now and then I push to break out of it just for a bit to explore...
I am back to my pasture and feeling safe in it and content tonight.
Mono and I had another good talk, Leo emailed to tell me that I mean more to him than sex and now we know where the boundary is we can go back to not pushing it...
I'm good, he's good, Mono is good. It sounds like Leo's wife is good being okay with what ever we decide and that is all I need to top off my week... until next time.

Dear IAFF Brothers and Sister,
Welcome to the official Akron Fire Fighters Association Local 330 Web Page. Local 330 was chartered through the International Association of Firefighters (IAFF) on April 8, 1932 and today represents over 350 Firefighters of the Akron Fire Department. Local 330 is the sole bargaining voice of our members.
Local 330 members are active participants in our community and we take great pride in both our department as well as the City and the citizens we serve!
Please take some time to look around our site and get to know us. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact any of our Executive Board members.
Russ Brode
President, IAFF Local 330
2014 marked the 60th Anniversary of the partnership between the IAFF and the Muscular Dystrophy Association (MDA). Firefighters from across the United States and Canada have made the promise to not stop raising money for MDA until a cure is found for the over 45 neuromuscular diseases that comprise muscular dystrophy. Local 330 members have been raising money every year through a multitude of events to help battle these debilitating diseases.
MDA research grants currently are supporting more than 250 projects worldwide.
Akron Firefighters Local 330 and Retirees, along with many friends of Local 330, hosted an "ALS Ice Bucket Challenge" at the Union hall on Saturday, August 23. This was done in memory of retired L330 members Steve Moyers and Bob Pratt as well as retired Shaker Hts L516 member Shaun Probert......all of who lost their battle with ALS. With approximately 60-70 people in attendance, we were able to raise $2251 in just over 1 hour! Thank you to all who attended and participated! A special thanks to retired L330 member Ernie Davis for spearheading this event and L330 member Dave O'Neal for all the work organizing this for us!
Annual Fish Fry Tuesday February 23 "B"day doors open 5pm $20.00 at the door.
During the game there will be a Wing Cook-Off challenge between Fire and Police. At this time we have only 1 participant from Local 330 making wing sauce and competing. If you have any interest in representing Local 330 , please let me know and I will get word to Kevin Evans. You only have to prepare the sauce of your choice. Wings are provided.
Even if you don't want to participate in the wing cook-off, please make plans to come out and enjoy a fun filled afternoon at the FOP lodge and watch the Super Bowl! Please feel free to bring your significant other.
Starts at 5:00 and wings will be sold after judging around 6:00. Full service bar, plenty to eat and drink all night.

Architect and Director
of Jewish Museum Berlin to Speak at Mount Holyoke May 3
Jewish Museum Berlin
During the two years
that the Jewish Museum Berlin stood empty, devoid of exhibits,
more than 350,000 people flocked to its underground entry, wove
through its winding galleries, and peered through the slivers
of window that cut its zinc-clad exterior in horizontal, vertical,
and zigzagging gashes. Some visitors called the building a disorienting
"horror." Others named it one of the greatest architectural
achievements in the past one hundred years and called for it to
remain empty, a work of art unto itself. Whatever one thinks of
its design and how it interacts with its exhibits, the Jewish
Museum Berlin is an emotionally powerful landmark that shapes
its surroundings, and this is exactly the effect that architect
Daniel Libeskind hopes all his designs will achieve. "A building
has a responsibility to transform the context," he says.
"Not just taking from its surroundings, but also contributing.
Enlivening, transforming." more>

Maryland Motor Vehicle Administration Point System
Violating Maryland driving and traffic laws can result in fines, the suspension of your driving privileges, and even imprisonment. The Maryland Motor Vehicle Administration (MVA) uses a point system to track violations and their corresponding penalties. Points are added to your driving record if you receive a traffic ticket for moving violations.
Different violations are assigned different point values, which are added to your driving record. For instance, moving violations like failure to stop for a school bus and failure to observe traffic signals, carry two points. Five-point offenses include driving without a license, engaging in speed contests and driving alone with a permit. The number of points assessed for different speeding violations are as follows:
Exceeding the maximum speed limit by 9 mph or less): 1 point
Exceeding the maximum speed limit by 10 mph and over: 2 points
Exceeding the maximum speed limit by 20 mph or more over the 65 mph limit: 5 points
Exceeding the maximum speed limit by 30 mph and over: 5 points
View the complete Point Schedule to learn about the number of points associated with each type of moving violation.
You will be subject to specific penalties if you accumulate a certain number of points on your driving license:
- If you accumulate 3 points, the MVA sends you a warning letter.
- If the number of points accumulated increases to 5, you will have to enrol in a Driver Improvement Program.
- 8 points accumulated means that your license will be suspended. A notice of scheduled suspension will be mailed to you. You may be imprisoned for driving with a suspended license.
- 12 points or more will result in your license being revoked.
- Accumulating points on your driving license is also likely to increase your auto insurance rates. See our auto insurance section for more information about obtaining quality car insurance at competitive rates.
The Maryland MVA maintains a record of all the points added to your driving license. However, these points are automatically removed from your record after a period of 3 years, if:
- You have not committed and been convicted for another moving violation or any other criminal offence involving a motor vehicle during this period AND
- Your license has been neither suspended nor revoked AND
- You have never been convicted of driving while intoxicated, fleeing the scene of an accident or similar violations.
In case you do not fulfil all the above criteria you could also request a manual removal of points from your driving record. Your eligibility to qualify for this would depend on the length of time you have been violation free and what your last violation was. MVA will take a decision based on Maryland Law.
If you believe you have been incorrectly charged with committing a moving violation, you may be able to fight the charge in court. See Traffic Tickets and Traffic Ticket Attorneys for more information.
- Points are not assessed for parking or other non-moving violations.
- See also Driver's Education and Suspended Licenses.

|Topic Review (Newest First)
|Cheap boats are usually far more expensive than the same boat in good condition. If you are serious about this boat, I'd recommend you read the Boat Inspection Trip Tips thread I started, as it will help you determine what the real condition of this boat is. If it has more than one serious issue, fixing it may cost considerably more than buying the same boat in good shape.
Depends on your budget
What is your over all budget. Can you afford to shell out $2-5000 now? If so do that and get a really nice solid boat and be done with it. At least for now, there will be plenty more work and money to spend down the road. I grew up in the bay area and look at latitude 38 every so often and see lots of boats in the under $5000 range with new paint, good sails, good motor. There was a Ranger 23 for $1000 a while back nicely rigged but had been on the hard for a while, and another one for around $3000 ready to sail away.
I agree with dvideohd that there are probably more problems hidden and it could be a long expensive project, costing more than a $2k to get the boat in good shape. You might be able to get the bottom fairly clean by diving yourself but do you want to do it once a week or every other week. Repairing the transom could be a major chore, that might need the boat hauled. Check to see the cost of hauling the boat, and yard time while you paint and repair the transom and whatever else is wrong. Add a grand or 2 for new sails if the ones on the boat are tired. I imagine a C22 in good shape ready to sail going for $2-3K. You could spend many grand and lots of sweat equity over the years for a boat that is only worth $2k in the end. If you are going to pay eventually, I'd rather pay now and go sailing.
If you only have $500 to spend now, have someone check the boat out now and make sure its not going to fail right away and get out on the water.
Also if money is that tight, what does it cost to put a boat in a marina there? Think about the Cal (Berkley) Sailing Club. I remember it being dirt cheap with a fleet of Lidos and Ensigns to sail, 22 dingys 6 keel boats and 80 windsurfers for $200 a year plus a few hours of service each quarter.
I agree.. a $500 boat to learn on is great.. as long as someone can assure you that there is nothing terribly wrong with it. go to the marina and find a random sailor, offer him a couple of beers for his advice.. you can't expect a bulletproof bluewater cruiser for $500, but you should make sure nothing's about to "let go" on your first sail..
SO, that's my advice, find any sailor smarter than you, offer 'em a couple of beers and see what they say.. I'm not an expert, but if I'm the best you can find, I'd throw in my 2cents..
best way to find out if the bottom is easily cleaned.. bring trunks and the brush from the kitchen sink
If one thing is off.....
Then there is LIKELY a lot more that you can't see...
I have a Columbia 28 MKII
Find a friend with a moisture meter and go over every inch of deck.... take a dead head - rubber hammer and tap it looking for deck/hull damage... inspect it REAL CLOSELY...
I truly love the old 28... it's classic plastic... a real clorox bottle with style... but there are things wrong with it and it will take $$ to bring up to par.....
go look - be crawl over and inspect every inch... really give the rigging a solid check..... have some ideas of what it will cost to fix....
A $500 deal may cost you $5K more to bring up to par... or it might cost nothing... !!!!!
good luck...
|also - i want those cool images of my little boat next to my user name like you long time users have.....how do i do that?
Thinking about buying a Columbia 22. Help!
Hey everyone. So I've recently gotten the sailing bug and I am super into the C22's. I found a great little C22 here for $500. Needs a little TLC just as much as I need more sailing lessons. But I figured I'd buy her, drive her to the new marina with the outboard and as I continue with my sailing lessons, refit her and grow together. There's a couple of issues I wanted to see what the group has to say about the boat....because money is kind of an object.
#1) The rudder is really loose, wobbly even. The guy who is selling the boat for a charity said that all I'd have to do is pull up the tiller and knock out the rudder and take the thing to a machine shop and have them re-machine the bushings for about $60. Anyone done this in the past?
#2) there looks to be a little damage on the hull - like something hit the boat. softly. just some cracking and scrapes. he's sure its just the gel coat. can i just touch up the gel coat of paint or reinforce it with anything?
#3) The motor mount doesn't lower. its an OMC part- the bolts just look super worn out and rusted. can i take the mount off and replace the bolts? also it looks like it puls some of the transom away from the back...how would i slip some marine ply in there to stiffen it up?
I would need to clean the bottom. Its could use a coat of bottom paint but the guy says it can't just go on a mount b/c it doesn't have an internal frame to support it- that i'd need to go with some marina and a sling device....could i just dive and scub it myself and call it okay?
I love the forum and appreciate the help!!!! Thanks everyone!!!!

Can two different species occupy exactly the same niche? What happens?
Since this is not my area of expertise, I searched Google under the key words "environmental niche competition" to get this source:
(Broken Link Removed)
Consider an extreme case: Can 2 populations occupying the same resource niche coexist in the same environment?
If 2 populations occupy same resource niche, then by definition they utilize all the same resources, and in the same manner
Common sense tells us there are 3 possible outcomes to this situation:
1) share resources more or less equally (neither population changes niche)
2) one or both populations alters niche to reduce overlap (niche partitioning)
3) one population loses out completely (competitive exclusion)
In the future, you can find the information you desire more quickly, if you use appropriate key words to do your own search. Also see http://hanlib.sou.edu/searchtools/.
I hope this helps. Thanks for asking.

The unexpected victory of the Parti Québécois in Monday's by-election in the riding of Argenteuil has revitalized the party's fortunes and may have dampened the Liberals' enthusiasm for a late summer general election.
The Liberals never expected to lose a riding they have held since 1966. Premier Jean Charest even headed into the riding, located just north of Montreal, to deliver a victory speech before witnessing the defeat.
"This gives our supporters real hope," PQ Leader Pauline Marois said on Tuesday. "Voters have sent a message expressing widespread discontent …This government failed to control the student crisis, which has degenerated into a broader social crisis."
The PQ argued that the Liberals deliberately provoked a social crisis in order to polarize public opinion and make political gains. "They tried to use the crisis for electoral purposes and it backfired on them," PQ house leader Stéphane Bédard said.
The Liberals were convinced that voters would support Mr. Charest's tough law-and-order strategy against the student protest movement over tuition-fee increases and contain the social unrest that has spilled into the streets of Montreal and other cities. The Liberals' special law, which has been widely denounced as draconian and an attack on freedom of speech, was supposed to quell demonstrations but only served to galvanize a much wider protest movement.
When the votes were counted Monday night in Argenteuil, the Liberals had dropped 16 percentage points in support compared with the 2008 general election while the PQ had barely increased its level of support. Part of the Liberal support went to the Coalition Avenir Quebec, but a good proportion of voters just skipped the by-election altogether – voter turnout was only 42 per cent.
In Monday's other by-election – another Liberal stronghold in the Montreal riding of LaFontaine – the party won easily but with a voter turnout of only 25 per cent.
The lack of enthusiasm among Liberal supporters fuelled concerns that the party could lose should Mr. Charest decide to call a general election in mid-August. By-elections don't necessarily reflect the outcome of a general election but Monday night's loss may have given the Liberals serious pause for concern.
"We have taken some unpopular decisions. And some people were disappointed. But we are not here to be popular, we are here to govern. And in a general election when people will weigh the pros and the cons, I am confident this government will be re-elected," said Natural Resources Minister Clément Gignac in explaining Monday's Argenteuil defeat.
Should Mr. Charest decide to wait, he may have to put off the election for a full year to allow the dust to settle from the damning revelations expected at the Charbonneau Commission probe into allegations of corruption in the construction industry and the awarding of government contracts. Or Mr. Charest may consider stepping aside as leader, a scenario he has so far excluded.
The longer he waits, the more time CAQ Leader François Legault will have to build his fledgling party. The CAQ finished third in both by-elections. Even Mario Laframboise, the former Bloc Québécois MP from Argenteuil, was unable to give his party momentum.
"The student [issue] polarized the debate and we were faced with a problem of notoriety," Mr. Legault explained.
It was the CAQ's first experience in an election campaign and the results were disappointing, causing headaches for Mr. Legault in his bid to raise money and recruit star candidates in time for a late summer campaign, should it happen.Report Typo/Error

Italian Blog Scene: Rubber Slippers & Bleeding Espresso
Imagine a country in which the denizens are experts at il dolce far niente (sweet doing nothing). Italy is a country in which a great day is one spent sipping espresso (the national breakfast) and people- watching in a piazza. Elizabeth Gilbert in her book Eat Pray Love says she learned from her time in Italy that "the more exquisitely and delightfully you can do nothing, the higher your life's achievement."As a recovering Silicon-Valley workaholic, the idea of living this sort of existence both titillates and terrifies me. But I wanted to know more about it…This is the first in a series of blogs that will introduce you to cool people blogging about their lives in venerable Italy.Most Italian blogs I found carry the same observations from the authors: no matter how long they lived there they would always be outsiders, they miss clothes dryers, that the continual juxtaposition of the pope and naked bottoms in the media is amusing.zoomata: Nicole Martinelli, based in Milan, writes in a smart and sometimes snarky style on politics and current events in Italy. Her "daily life" articles are a hoot – read about the recently found Mafia 10 Commandments and official love parking lots. Nicole also writes for Spot-on.
- Italy From the Inside: this blog is billed as "Italian Culture explained with new Media." I love the "pop-culture" tone of their blog and they make heavy use of videos and podcasts as they dissect Italian culture, both traditional and new. Topics include Italian food misconceptions, Venice crowd forecasting sites, and their daughter's adorable podcast, Italian for kids. A lot of the blog content is a push for their ebook, but if their book is written as conversationally and practically as their blog posts, it's well worth the dirt-cheap price of $14.99.
- The Verge: Jennifer, the author, lived in Italy for 16 years and recently moved back to the U.S. with her Italian husband. Although the link is to her posts mentioning Italy (in which she is equal parts romantic and realistic), she is a gorgeous, poetic writer and I highly recommend reading everything else on her blog as well.
- Cross-cultural moments: ooh now this was a find. Elizabeth Abbott counsels individuals and companies on developing "intuitive cross-cultural skills" and she writes about her real-life experiences living in Italy to explain some of these concepts. She says,
"I have found that the most interesting part of living abroad is finally understanding my own American culture in contrast. I no longer ask, "Why do they…" and instead ask, "Why do I…." This is what I address in my blog."
Her posts are full of such compare and contrast insights (pleasing to my analytical mind), and topics include why 80% of Italians are happy with their lives, the tradition and equality of pot luck, and Italian family murder dynamics. Another plus is that her posts are peppered with great book references! (It would be even nicer if all the books were linked to Amazon!!) Yes I'm internet lazy.
- Rubber Slippers In Italy: Rowena, a Hawaii native, puts my favorite things in a blog: pretty pictures of her adventures and Italian food recipes-also with pretty pictures.
- Bleeding Espresso: This wouldn't be a complete blog post from me if I didn't include some reference to chocolate or coffee, so I present Bleeding Espresso, a blog by Michelle, an expat and coffee junkie living in Calabria. Italy is a perfect place for coffee nuts, aficionados – apparently Italians will not even visit an establishment with bad coffee. Thanks to Michelle notifying me about World Nutella Day, I don't have to feel silly about being an American who likes Nutella (try it on crepes, YUMMY).
- Several folks wrote me and suggested the At Home In Rome Blog, but it looks as if she's taking a blog hiatus, darn it! But she's got plenty of archives to keep you happy until she comes back!
- Expat Interviews/Italy: great site (organized by country) which features interviews – all the same questions -with expats living abroad.
- Expat-blog: Italy: Expat-blog has lists of blogs from U.S. Expatriats living all over the world! Note: while there are some great blogs on here I'm not sure they are updating it very frequently as I've found some dead blogs on there.
If, after reading all these blogs you decide to MOVE to Italy, check out:
- Expats in Italy, a site chock full o' helpful information that new residents need,.
- Expattalk Forums, (a segment of Expats in Italy) which appear to be pretty active! Too bad Expattalk is only for expats in Italy! Note: the navigation is a little confusing…when you click a link on top, the available sections appear on the left side in a box entitled "section navigation."
- AngloInfo: AngloInfo is a resource for "Anglophones" in a foreign environment, linking English-speaking residents with each other and the organizations that serve them.
BONUS: For reading all the way to the bottom of this post, here's a link to Learn Italian Pod, a podcast that teaches you Italian in practical short bursts, like, How To Ask For A Better Room."

It just became my first birthday at midnight!
At 11:59 Mommy picked me up and hugged me for a whole minute. She kept saying silly stuff about missing her little bitty kitten and she seemed sad but really happy too. I don't get humans sometimes. They're weird.
Then at midnight she opened a can of tuna but I had to share it with my brother. Tomorrow night after work Mommy will give me my presents and she said she's going to let me play in water in the bathtub.
I'm a big boy now!!!!!!

Telefonica Czech Republic says that its 3G network now covers 61% of the Czech population, in 1,016 towns and cities. Telefonica plans to cover 66 % of the Czech population by the end of the year.
"We want to make high-speed data available to as many people as possible. Only during summer our engineers commissioned 127 3G transmitters," says Dvorjancanský, marketing director of Telefonica Czech Republic. "Following our network sharing agreement with T-Mobile, we have already covered 228 sites with the 3G signal from the beginning of our cooperation," adds Jirí Dvorjancanský.
The 3G network sharing with T-Mobile was launched at the beginning of the second quarter, as planned. The coverage roll out is in line with the plans of the two operators and precisely follows their agreement.
High speed data in the O2 network is currently used by 1.3 million customers. 900,000 of them use Internet in their mobiles and 400,000 use Internet in their laptops. These numbers represent customers who actively use data services, i.e. they download at least 50 kb in a month.

These tiny pizza pops make a great one-bite pizza. They will appeal to kids at parties and grown-ups love them too. Top them with your favourite toppings or just keep it simple.
Budget, Dinner, Easy recipes, Finger foods, Food kids will eat, Healthy recipes, Italian food, Kids cooking, Lunchbox, Pizza, Snacks
- 1 quantity of 2 ingredient pizza dough
- 1 cup passata (Italian tomato sauce)
- 10 pitted kalamata olives
- 10 cherry tomatoes
- 10 sundried tomato pieces, chopped
- 4 cubes (40g) feta cheese, crumbled
- basil leaves
- 100g parmesan cheese
- 1 pkt skewers
Preheat oven to 220°C. Cover a baking tray with baking paper.
Roll out pizza dough to half a centimetre thick. Using a small pastry cutter cut as many rounds as you can get and re-roll the dough and cut again.
Place all of the rounds on the tray and top with pizza toppings from the selection.
Grate parmesan over the pizzas on the tray.
Bake in the oven for 8-10 minutes until the pizzas are golden and fluffy.
Push skewers into cooked pizzas.
- These little pizzas look great on the table at parties.
- I like to make up a double batch of the dough and cut the rounds out and freeze.

Rooms with a view! This light-filled rooftop (3rd floor) apartment in the historic Telephone Building is a perfect oasis in the heart of downtown Newport. From this quiet aerie you'll look out on Trinity Church, Newport Harbor and a spectacular hidden garden. The one-bedroom loft, completely renovated in 2013, is perfect for anyone who wants to be within walking distance of everything Newport has to offer.
Great place, modern, w/ a lovely deck, convenient to everything. The owners are extremely gracious and helpful. We have already booked for next year!
Perfect location for walking to wharf, park, uptown to shops. Great outside deck area with grill. Beautiful views of water and sunsets.
Clean - Owners could not have been nicer. Go see Michael at the wine store across the street!
Highly recommended!!
This place is fantastic. Very clean, open space with an awesome rooftop for great views of the sunset. The location was fantastic and the parking space was a really nice bonus. I'd highly recommend anyone traveling to the Newport area to stay here. Amy was very communicative and accommodating and made sure her guests had a great experience. I would definitely stay here again!
What an incredible place! We loved the space and it is in a perfect location for enjoying all that Newport has to offer. Amy was very accommodating and made our stay easy.
We can't say enough good things about how amazing the 1 bedroom apartment was for our stay. It was located in the center of town, walking distance from tons of restaurants and shopping. Amy was an exceptional host and took great care of us. The apartment came stocked with everything you need to start your stay. The fresh flowers and furnishings made the apartment feel like a home. We enjoyed the views from the roof deck right outside the apartment. Looking forward to staying here again in the future.
My husband and I stayed at the penthouse loft over Valentine's day weekend during the deep freeze. The owners were very prompt in responding to our last minute rental request and were very accommodating when we had technical difficulties with the lock box. They left many welcome additions to make our stay even more romantic. The flowers, cheese, wine, chocolate and bakery treats were greatly appreciated. The apartment is just as described and is incredibly spacious and well appointed. As noted in the description, the property does not have a full kitchen and there is no microwave, but there is a small counter appliance which does bake/toast. But you really don't visit Newport to cook when there are so many fabulous restaurants just outside the door! The radiator heat worked perfectly during our stay and kept us warm and cozy after braving the cold outside. The outdoor patio looked like it would be a lot of fun in warmer months. I can't stress how amazing the location of this property is! We fully intend to come back and enjoy walking around Newport when temperatures are not subzero. That being said, we did brave the cold for meals during our stay and walked to and from the apartment quite easily. I almost hesitate to write this review, as I don't want rental competition :) but this is truly a gem of a property that should not be missed! Newport is one of our favorite places to visit and we won't hesitate to return to this property on our future adventures.
Newport is famed for its stunning beaches, world-class sailing, music festivals, and mansions. From the downtown waterfront shops and restaurants to the spectacular coastline and pristine beaches, every aspect of this historic seaside town is worth exploring.

- Award-winning nature site family run since 1933
- Less than ten miles from Colchester Zoo
- Restaurant and bar with play area and large screen TV
Oh, see this for a wondrous wildlife haven…Family-run since 1933, edged by Essex countryside, the Blackwater Estuary and miles of coastal walks, Osea Leisure Park is one for naturalists of all ages to retreat to. And would you Adam and Eve it, it's only about an hour from London too.
The Osea family take the site conservation seriously and have picked up a Gold David Bellamy Award for their endeavours; they also work with Natural England and the Essex Wildlife Trust to re-establish the local saltmarsh grazing, and use Osea Meadows to graze rare-breed cattle and sheep. It all makes for a splendidly secluded and natural spot for family hols, but with coastal villages, Essex attractions, museums, boating and sailing all close by, and Colchester Zoo less than ten miles away.
Barbecues are allowed on site; you can pick up supplies in two main supermarkets about a mile away, and fast food and pizza takeaways close by. Or follow in the footsteps of most guests to the Deckhouse restaurant and bar, a short walk through the caravan park and with landscaped grounds, play area, live weekend entertainment in high season, and a large screen TV to follow all-important football matches and sports fixtures (limited open hours apply at off-peak times).
There's no shop on site, but one is at the park next to Osea a short walk away, and there are vending machines for snacks and drinks on site as well as a freezer for refreezing ice packs.
Open from 31/03/2017 to 30/09/2017

Chinese tallow tree is a fast-growing deciduous tree with broad leaves and spikes of greenish-yellow flowers without petals. Tallow tree was brought to the US from Asia for the solid fat found in the tree's seeds that are used medicinally and to make candles, soap, cloth dressing and fuel.
How does it spread?
Chinese tallow tree reproduces by seed. Flowing water, birds and other animals disperse the seed of this tree, creating new invasions.
Where would I find it?
Chinese tallow tree is a popular ornamental tree, and has only recently been found invading streamside and wetland areas in California. It has spread rapidly in those areas.
What problems does it cause?
When Chinese tallow tree escapes cultivation, it is capable of form dense stands that crowd out native vegetation. Chinese tallow tree leaf litter decomposes quickly and significantly alters the composition of soil nutrients in invaded areas.

Detailed Description:
Patients with Somatization Disorder suffer from medically unexplained physical ailments and experience significant distress and disability. This disorder is an important problem for the primary health care system because patients with Somatization Disorder use health care resources extensively but receive little benefit. To date, no medical or psychiatric intervention has been demonstrated in controlled trials to produce clinically significant and lasting symptom relief or improved functional status in Somatization Disorder patients.
Patients in primary care settings with multiple unexplained symptoms are treated with 10 weekly sessions of CBT or "treatment as usual." Physical symptoms, comorbid psychiatric symptoms, disability, and health care utilization are measured and assessed through a combination of structured interviews and self-reports. Assessments are performed at study start, mid-treatment, end of treatment, and at a 6-month follow-up.

Painting Plastic Body Panels
I just bought a motorcycle and I got a great deal on it but I absolutely hate the color of the plastic panels. There are six pieces I'll need to paint:
Front fender (1)
Faux tank (2 sides and 1 center piece)
Rear side pieces (2)
Is it feasible to paint them myself?
Five of these parts have graphics applied - I'm guessing these are under "clear coat" or something like that.
I have removed them and thought I could prep them by sanding with 400 or 600 paper but I'm just guessing that would be a start and I have no idea what type of automotive paint I should use.
I do have a small compressor and air tank and I'm not against the idea of buying a sprayer. I used one once back in college for an Industrial Design project I was working on - used several light coats of automotive lacquer and the project looked awesome. Did about three or four coats of primer with light sanding in between, then probably six coats of color and blah, blah, blah.
My ultimate goal would be to have a very durable flat black on all the six parts but my legs would be hitting the tank pieces (which isn't really a fuel tank - but that's not important). The faux fuel tank is made up of 3 pieces (2 side pieces and a center piece).
I'm guessing I could get a much more durable finish if I used a color and then covered it with several layers of clear.
Any help with this project would be MOST appreciated. I found this place by Googling "painting fiberglass parts."
Here's a link showing the body panels I'm going to paint -->

And - I hope you guys (& gals?) aren't upset that a motorcycle person is hanging out here.
