Preparation

Make the dressing:

In a small bowl whisk together the vinegar, the mustard, the anchovy paste, the thyme, the sugar, and salt and pepper to taste, add the oil in a stream, whisking, and whisk the dressing until it is emulsified.

Reserve 2 tablespoons of the dressing in another small bowl, arrange the tuna pieces and the squash slices on a baking sheet, and brush them lightly with the reserved dressing. In a bowl toss the shrimp and the scallops with 2 tablespoons of the remaining dressing. Let the mixture stand for 15 minutes. In a kettle of boiling water cook the beans for 5 minutes, or until they are crisp-tender, drain them in a colander, and refresh them under cold water. In another bowl toss the beans with 3This invention relates to underwater pipelines and more particularly to underwater pipeline junction manifolds and means for accurately orienting the manifold to existing pipelines on the ocean floor.
Underwater pipeline junctions manifolds are used in the offshore drilling industry to join pipelines from several wells to a common point. The various pipelines run to the junction manifold from the respective wells arriving at the manifold at different angles. A main pipeline then runs from the junction manifold to onshore facilities or to a deep water port distribution system. The junction manifold is fabricated and constructed with flanges to receive the incoming pipelines at these different angles. When placing the junction manifold on the ocean floor, it is necessary to orient the manifold relative to the incoming pipelines so that
