I met with the BK attorney yesterday....
Find a Conversation
|Tue, 07-31-2007 - 10:17am
and, he said I definitely qualify for Chapter 13. I don't qualify for Ch. 7 because my income is too high for one person. So, I am planning on filing Ch. 13. The attorney thinks my payments will be somewhere between $300-400 for the next five years. We will try to get it down to $300, an amount that I could definitely live with. I am planning on keeping my car and condo (the one I am living in).
I gave him a $200 deposit and he is charging me $1800 for the BK including filing for the Ch. 13. Does this sound right? Another attorney I spoke with said she charges $3K for the whole thing.
He told me to file a homestead on my condo which I am going to do this week. I also have to take an on-line course with CCCS, file my 2006 income taxes, and get some remaining paperwork to him. I am hoping to file by the end of August. I am planning on going away 8/9 - 21 and I really need to be able to relax, so the end of August is fine.
I did receive the letter from the attorney yesterday when I got home regarding the $11K on the auto loan on the car that was repoed; they are looking for their money. I haven't heard anything on the condo that was foreclosed upon, but it's still early and the BK will take care of that as well. They attorney said to refer anyone who writes or calls to him. At least that will keep the wolves away from the door, so to speak.
I am feeling a little bit better and feeling that at least an end is in sight for all of this. I appreciate the support of this board!

Hi, you've reached the homepage of the Bradford lab group at Yale University's School of Forestry & Environmental Studies. Our research explores two main questions:
- How do plants and soil organisms respond to environmental change?
- How do these responses affect ecosystem function, especially the movement and storage of carbon in soils?
The Wordle compiles the most common words from the titles of papers we've published since the lab established (in 2005, then at the University of Georgia, Athens). It gives a good flavor of the topics we primarily focus on under Questions 1 & 2. Below the Wordle there's a more detailed description of why we do what we do, and how we do it.
Why focus on carbon and ecosystems? Soils and plants store huge quantities of carbon. Disturbances that degrade ecosystems release this into the atmosphere – in forms such as carbon dioxide – contributing to our changing climate. But soils and ecosystems are much more than reservoirs for carbon – their health is directly tied to water purification, flood prevention, maintenance of biodiversity, and agricultural production. Understanding how and why plants, animals, microbes and soils respond to environmental change will therefore help us understand the consequences for human well-being, and how we might manage them.
We use experimental and observational approaches to investigate these effects of global change, both in the field and laboratory. We primarily work across forests and grasslands in the north and south of the eastern United States.
The overall goal of our research is to provide the necessary mechanistic understanding required for reliable prediction of global change impacts on ecosystems, and their likely feedbacks to the climate system.
LAB NEWS-NOV. Congrats to Dan, who just advanced to doctoral candidacy. Some of the core ideas he's developing for his dissertation contribute to a larger paper lead-authored by Tom – and just published in Frontiers in Microbiology – which sets out the basis for using a traits approach to understand fungal community assembly and organization. Check it out via the Publications page.

Former Bachelorette star Ashley Hebert, who famously rejected Ben Flajnik, is trying to give Courtney Robertson the benefit of the doubt. She really is.
But while Ash admits she didn't find Court as despicable as usual on this week's episode of The Bachelor, she's totally calling her out for one thing:
Ripping off her so-called heartfelt vows from Sex and the City!
"First of all, I do have to say that Courtney's ceremony was a little bit of a rip-off idea - because we did that on my season, with William," recalls Hebert.
"And she blatantly stole her vows from Sex and the City!"
In their faux wedding, Courtney memorably told Ben, "I am looking for love. Real love. Passionate, consuming, can't-live-without-each-other love."
Sarah Jessica Parker said, "I am someone who is looking for love. Real love. Ridiculous, inconvenient, consuming, can't-live-without-each-other love."
Remember? To Mikhail Baryshnikov, from the series finale? When Carrie breaks it off with the Russian? Right before Big tracks her down in Paris?
Anyway, Ashley Hebert is like the rest of us - flummoxed by Courtney.

Why meditation isn't the main thing in my life
Given that I'm a meditation teacher and the author of a good number of books and audiobooks on meditation, you might think that meditation should be the central thing in my life. But — and this is something I only just realized — it's not.
I've carried around, not very consciously, the idea that meditation should be the most important, the most central, thing in my life. And I suspect that this mostly unconscious idea has led to inner conflict and resistance. Certainly, when I realized just the other day that meditation wasn't and shouldn't be the central thing in my life, I felt unburdened. I felt lighter, freer, and clearer. The …

Knowing the mind of the Buddha
A little under two years ago I was on a retreat with other members of the Triratna Buddhist Order, which I've been a member of since 1993. We were discussing the visualization meditation practices we were each given at the time of our ordination.
At the time of my own ordination, the practice I had requested and was formally given — the visualization of Padmasambhava — was described as being my orientation toward enlightenment. The visualized form of Padmasambhava — a red-robed figure with a trident and skull cup overflowing with the nectar of immortality — embodied my personal connection with awakening.
"Enlightenment" can be a rather abstract concept. How can we …

Gratitude for the teachings and teachers (Day 75)
So you're here to learn something about meditation. From me, a person who enjoys sharing his experience. Perhaps you're grateful that I do that. I'm grateful you're here.
I learned meditation from many people, the first of whom was a man called Susiddhi, another Scot, who was teaching at the Glasgow Buddhist Centre in Scotland. And now that I think about it, I am very grateful for what he taught me, and I'm grateful to the many other teachers I learned from, who often taught each other. This process of teachings being passed on isn't a linear process of teacher to student. Teachers are also students of each other. …

"A person of integrity is grateful and thankful" — The Buddha (Day 74)
The Buddha, in Bhikkhu Thanissaro's translation at least, said, "A person of integrity is grateful and thankful." This is one of those thoughts that I'm profoundly grateful for because I don't think it would ever have occurred to me. Yet searching the web for the terms "gratitude" and "integrity" brought me to an interesting book, The Gratitude Factor: Enhancing Your Life Through Grateful Living, by Charles M. Shelton.
Shelton explores this theme of integrity and gratitude. He distinguishes between thankfulness (which involves being appreciative of some specific person or thing) and gratitude (which is a deeper and more pervasive attitude to life consisting of being grateful not just …

Compassion as an antidote for our own suffering (Day 45)
I've often written about how experiencing compassion for ourselves can naturally spill over to experiencing compassion for other people. When someone says something that you find hurtful, that hurt is a form of suffering. Often what we do is try to become angry, ultimately in an effort to rid of the "cause" of the suffering (the other person) and thus remove the hurt. This is a kind of double aversion, because not only are we experiencing aversion to the person whose words gave rise to the feeling of hurt, but we're turning away from the hurt itself.
A compassionate approach to dealing with hurt, on the other hand, is to …

How not to practice "idiot compassion" (Day 33)
Chogyam Trungpa borrowed from Gurdjieff the very useful notion of "idiot compassion." Gurdjieff, a rather fascinating spiritual teacher of the early to mid-20th century, had said that we are all idiots of one kind or another, and his extensive lists of the various types of idiots included "the compassionate idiot."
Compassion is wishing that beings be free from suffering. Idiot compassion is avoiding conflict, letting people walk all over you, not giving people a hard time when actually they need to be given a hard time. It's "being nice," or "being good."
It's not compassion at all. It ends up causing us pain, and it ends up causing others …

Sorrow is failed compassion (Day 28)
I've had more people asking me about the "near enemy" of compassion. So here goes…
The "near enemy" is, by definition, something you might confuse with compassion. You might think you were cultivating compassion but were actually cultivating something else, in the same way that you might water and care for a weed, thinking it's a useful plant. The "far enemy" is quite straightforward. It's cruelty, or indifference to suffering, which is just the direct opposite of compassion. That's easy to understand. But what is compassion's "near enemy"?
People often use the word "pity" to describe the near enemy, but the traditional commentaries use the word "grief." Compassion is also …

"No man chooses evil, because it is evil; he only mistakes it for happiness, the good he seeks." Mary Wollstonecraft
Wollstonecraft's words encapsulate perfectly something I've long held, which is that the Buddhist view of greed, hatred, and delusion — often called the Three Unwholesome Roots (akusala mūla) — is far removed from the western conception of sin.
Sin is "bad." It's "evil." It's a transgression against the Divine law.
When we encounter the Buddhist teaching of the Three Unwholesome Roots, it's easy to slip it into the sin-shaped space that exists in our minds. But the Buddha's understanding of these roots is wholly different from how sin is understood, and we need to disentangle the two sets of concepts in our own minds.
Here's something that when you think about it is rather …

The value of "going through the motions"
For at least a couple of weeks now I've felt that I've been "going through the motions" with my meditation practice. I'm still a rock-solid daily meditator. I still remind myself "I meditate every day; it's just what I do; it's part of who I am." But sometimes my sits have been shorter and squeezed in at the end of the day.
It has, though, been a tough few weeks. My wife was sick, both kids have been repeatedly ill — one with pneumonia. That's interrupted my sleep, so that I'm more tired than usual. Work's been challenging as well. These things take a toll.
Sometimes I've …

The Buddha, meditation, and householders
The other day I posted some commentary on a study showing that mindfulness practice improved students' working memory and boosted their grades by 16% in just two weeks.
Yay, for meditation! You'd think Buddhists would generally be happy to see that their practices can be shown to be effective. But not everyone's happy about this. On one of the social media networks, someone criticized the study as "misuse of Dhamma" because meditation is being used for to "make people continue the usual [worldly] ways."
Furthermore, I was told the "The Buddha even did not teach meditation to ordinary laymen."
So there are two things here: the use of meditation for "worldly" ends (as …

Summer may be officially over, but that didn't stop Halle Berry from flaunting her ageless figure in a bright blue bikini Sunday in Malibu, Calif. Wandering the beach near her Malibu home, the 46-year-old mom to 4-year-old Nahla showed off her taunt tummy and long lean legs in the blue swimsuit top and cutoff jean shorts. Also on Sunday, she covered up -- just a bit -- joining her fiance Olivier Martinez to run errands, wearing a chic sheer coverup.
PHOTOS: Halle's hot bod through the years
"Halle's body looks 10 years younger, at least. She's an inspiration!" the actress' trainer Nat Bardonnet has told Us Weekly. "We try to get rid of what she doesn't like while keeping her womanly shape: erasing thighs, keeping the butt high, lengthening the hamstrings, and working the abs."
PHOTOS: The hottest post-baby bods
To stay fueled between workouts, the actress keeps her metabolism in check by eating five small meals a day. On Berry's menu: salads, fish and soups, which double as anti-aging, wrinkle-fighting foods. "I always had to diet," the 5-foot-6 Berry has said. "It's a lifestyle for me."
PHOTOS: Halle's stunning red carpet moments
Berry's hot bod wasn't the only thing on display during her weekend at the beach: The actress also proudly flaunted her huge engagement sparkler from boyfriend of two years Martinez, 46. Confirming their engagement in March, Berry "had given up on being married, but she trusts Olivier," an insider tells Us. "He makes her feel safe. He's a keeper!"

There won't be any ponies, but we are promised drinks, eatables, music and, according to the website, "artfully juvenile games." Fingers crossed it's not Sudoku. If you're not familiar with ATW, let's fix that. It's a website that features interviews with artist-y types at exhibitions in and around DFW. And they're about to expand. The party will also launch ATW Feed, a new show focusing on social media and Internet type stuffs. So who says there's not an art culture in Dallas? No, seriously, who? I want names and addresses so I can stop by, tell them about this and then do an overly aggressive "in your face" dance. Art This Week Turns 3 takes place at Central Trak, 800 Exposition Ave., on Friday, May 11th from 7:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. It's free and open to the public. Visit www.artthisweek.com.

Participants in ISU sleep study receive $25 for screening, and up to $240; Families with children 8 to 12 needed
Idaho State University researchers are looking for families with children 8 to 12 from throughout Southeast Idaho to participate in a study concerning sleep habits and social behaviors.
ISU psychology Professor Maria Wong and colleagues are conducting a study focusing on how sleep disturbances in children can affect behavior and cognitive performance.
The researchers will examine the sleep patterns, habits and architecture of biological children of both non-drinking and alcohol-using parents. Activities include interviews, questionnaires, cognitive tests, wearing an activity watch and sleep assessment.
Results of the study will lead to practical information on the relationship between sleep problems and academic performance, social relationships and substance use, with implications for prevention and early intervention.
Participants can earn up to $240 if they are eligible for the study and $25 for an initial screening session.
To schedule a confidential screening for the study call 208-228-5577 or email email@example.com. Privacy and confidentiality are guaranteed.

THE HOBBIT, FRINGE Lead Nominations for 39th Annual Saturn Awards
The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey received more Saturn Award nominations than any other film released last year, with Life of Pi and Skyfall close behind as the Academy of Science Fiction, Fantasy & Horror Films today revealed the nominations for the 39th Annual Saturn Awards.
Marvel's The Avengers, The Dark Knight Returns, Looper, Cloud Atlas, Argo and Les Miserables all received multiple Saturn Award nominations, underscoring the ways in which genre filmmaking has expanded beyond its roots as niche entertainment.
The only major awards dedicated to honoring the finest genre achievements in film, television and home entertainment, the Saturn Awards are planned to be presented in June, with the exact date and location to be announced shortly.
Nominees for Best Science Fiction Film are: Marvel's The Avengers, Chronicle, Cloud Atlas, The Hunger Games, Looper and Prometheus. Nominees for Best Fantasy Film are: The Amazing Spider-Man, The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey, Life of Pi, Ruby Sparks, Snow White and the Huntsman and Ted. Best Horror/Thriller Film nominees are: Argo, The Cabin in the Woods, The Impossible, Seven Psychopaths, The Woman in Black and Zero Dark Thirty. Best Action/Adventure Film nominees are: The Bourne Legacy, The Dark Knight Rises, Django Unchained, Les Miserables, Skyfall and Taken 2.
"From the grand adventure of Les Miserables to the visionary fantasy of Life of Pi and the magical realism of Beasts of the Southern Wild, this year's films transcended the notion of genre filmmaking and brought us extraordinary visions of exaggerated or enhanced reality, making this one of the most intriguing lists of Saturn Awards nominees in a long time," said Academy President Robert Holguin.
The Academy of Science Fiction, Horror & Fantasy Films has added a new film category to this year's Saturn Awards, honoring the Best Independent Film Release. The nominees are: Compliance, Hitchcock, Killer Joe, The Paperboy, Robot and Frank, Safety Not Guaranteed and Seeking a Friend for the End of the World.
On television, Elementary, The Following, Fringe, Once Upon a Time, Revolution and
The non-profit Academy of Science Fiction, Horror & Fantasy Films was founded in 1972 by noted film historian Dr. Donald A. Reed, who wanted to honor and recognize genre entertainment often overlooked by mainstream awards organizations.

You can show people explosive (no pun intended) evidence all day long, but until you prove the means, motive, and opportunity to them, then yes, they'll continue feasting on the spoon-fed BS.

Jennifer Lawrence might be a fully grown, 22-year-old woman, but on Thursday (January 10), she found out about her just-announced Oscar nomination for "Silver Linings Playbook" in a very childlike way.
"I was having a sleepover with my parents," Lawrence told MTV News on the red carpet at the Critics' Choice Movie Awards. "So I was asleep, and they came into my room and told me what happened. And then they left my bedroom, and I went back to sleep."
And she's not alone: Her "Playbook" co-stars Bradley Cooper, Robert De Niro and Jackie Weaver are also nominated for Oscars. "I believed with all my heart that they deserved it, so it's absolutely amazing to be able to share this with everybody," she said.
The Oscar nomination is hardly the biggest news in Lawrence's life, with "Hunger Games" sequel "Catching Fire" and "X-Men: Days of Future Past" looming on her very impressive horizon. Lawrence revealed that her second turn as Katniss, which just recently wrapped filming, was even more challenging than the first go-round.
"This one was harder," she admitted. "There were a lot more six-day weeks, and the schedule was exhausting, [but] it's so fun to get back with everybody, the same crew and obviously Josh [Hutcherson]. And [new director] Francis [Lawrence] is such a visionary. I think he's doing an incredible job."
Check out the red carpet fashion at the 18th annual Critics' Choice Movie Awards
Lawrence proved to be her own worst enemy during shooting. "I kicked myself in the face, only I didn't kick myself; I hit myself with an eight-pound carbon-fiber bow," she revealed of the self-inflicted bruise. "My own arm betrayed me."
Looking forward to her second major franchise, we wanted to know if Lawrence has had a chance to read the script for the "X-Men: First Class" sequel, "Days of Future Past," but she had trouble answering the question because she wasn't aware of the title — a fact that was announced in August of last year.
"Days of future what? Is that what they're calling it?" Lawrence asked when we told her the name of her movie. "They don't tell me anything! They tell me everything, I never listen," she added, laughing about the fact that she didn't know the title. "That's a cool title! No I haven't read the script."
Luckily, the self-deprecating awards darling has some time to remedy that situation, because filming on "Days of Future Past" isn't set to begin until April.
Until then, Lawrence has to wade through several more awards shows, the next one being Sunday's Golden Globes, for which she's keeping her pre-show preparation to a minimum.
"Obviously, I'm very prepared," she joked, laughing at her lack of "X-Men" knowledge. "I'm just going to wake up [on Sunday] and go where they tell me, sit still for hair and makeup and then walk down the carpet and talk to people."

Freddy and Me
Written and performed by Bryan Curtiss White
Directed by Nick Pappas
If somebody told you that you reminded them of Freddy Krueger, what would you think? This question is at the center of Freddy and Me, a one-man piece in which Bryan Curtiss White tries to figure out what people mean when they tell him he reminds them of a homicidal maniac. Identity, he finds, is a difficult topic to understand. How much of who he is and what he does is really intentional? At what point does his identity become wrapped up in the ideas that others have about him? With characteristic humor and thoughtfulness, he recounts incidents from his life that have helped to define who he is, while simultaneously examining them through the lens of understanding what it means to be _ Freddy and Me_.
Bryan Curtiss White (Writer/Performer) is working towards the completion of an M.A. in Drama from SFSU. In October of this year, he was pleased to contribute a scene and much of the music for the play Money, which was based on a scenario written for the WPA during the 1930s. Bryan's work as an actor has been primarily in the San Diego area where he has appeared in the Welk Resort Theatre's Fiddler on the Roof and White Christmas, Stone Soup Theatre's The Cradle Will Rock, and Cygnet Theatre's Arcadia.

Arizona Cardinals
Fitzgerald still believes in Cardinals' process
The Arizona Cardinals couldn't find a way to get the job done Sunday, losing to the Rams 31-17 at University of Phoenix Stadium. They've now lost seven straight after starting the season 4-0.
Wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald said they are doing things the right way and doesn't question the process that leads up to Sundays.
"We're a playoff team a couple years back and there's nothing different about the preparation. His (Whisenhunt's) tempo is good, it's crisp, guys are attentive and the assignments are being executed so I don't think it has anything to do with our preparation."
This loss was especially troubling with rookie quarterback Ryan Lindley throwing four interceptions in his first NFL start, two of which were returned for touchdowns and the Cardinals not scoring a single point in the second half.
"There's a disconnect when we get out there on the field Sunday," said Fitzgerald. "I feel like we just take turns making mistakes offensively and offensively everybody has to be on the same page."
Speaking of that "disconnect," according to ESPN Stats and Information, Lindley was 0-for-6 with two interceptions when targeting Fitzgerald at least 15 yards downfield Sunday. All six of the incompletions resulted from off-target passes.
Head coach Ken Whisenhunt tells the media weekly that he and the team believe in their process and their preparation and they will not change the way they do things leading up to gameday.
Fitz reiterated that again Sunday after the game before leaving the locker room. "We have to find a way to take what we're doing Monday through Saturday to Sunday and if we're able to do that, we'll have some success," he said.

New Taylor Momsen Video: Too Racy For Her Age?by Free Britney at . Comments
Taylor Momsen says she's not Miley f'ing Cyrus.
The two seem to have a similar urge to let their inner bad girls loose, however. Like the Hannah Montana pioneer, this is one Gossip Girl star who can't be tamed!
Taylor's band, The Pretty Reckless, just released a music video for their song "Miss Nothing," and, like Miley, she's already being criticized for being too risque.
She's 16 going on 17 (Monday), but she looks like she's 16 going on 30 in this video, which can be unintentionally funny, edgy, lame and sexy at the same time.
Okay, nix that last part. It's not sexy. Sixteen. So wrong. We're curious to hear what you think, though. Check out the "Miss Nothing" video below and vote in our poll:
What do you think of Taylor Momsen's new video? Too racy?
LOL... I think she has talent and i was impressed by her voice. She also reminds me of myself at 17 - I looked the same way: Hard core attire, lots of black eyeliner, white blond hair, pasty complexion and skinny as a stick! Ah, the memories :) that was 25 years ago!
Haha fucking ha ur saying muleta a whore n that taylor showed her tits at a concert so fick off
She's sounds good. But the video is weak.
@Krista: But Miley Cyrus has left Hannah Montana behind and has expressed on more than one occasion that she is now targetting an older audience (people 16 and older). she's changing her career path. Also, sexuality is a natural part of life. espescially when you're becoming an adult or when you're a young adult. In 3 months she will be 18, an adult. So I disagree that at 17 or 18 she's 'too young to be dressing or presenting herself' in a sexual way.
No way is this 'too racy for her age'. Anyone who thinks this should be illegal is a prude. Taylor Momsen is 17, not 7 or even 12. she's only a year away from being an adult. 17 is not much younger than 18. And Miley? she's less than 4 months away from being an adult. People need to chilax and get over it. Age be damned, Taylor Momsen has a good voice. I think she has the potential to be the next Pink or someone.
dude, her extensions her as bad as mileys...that's really saying something. ew. I mean girl can sing, but she should just not be seen. nopee...raccoon eyes and her pasty complexion do not go together.
aahh kids nowadays
miley is desperate for fame so she has to act like a whore
Miley knows when to stop. She knows there is a line between stage stuff and reality. She has never gone this far. Some of her stuff is a tad short but it was beautiful. It wasn't whore-ish Obviously Taylor does not know the line. COME ON Taylor, the song isn't that good. I think the band members think she is lame. I think they roll their eyes at her antics. They are just happy to get paid. Taylor has to rely on sex to sell her products where as Miley had natural singing talent to begin with. She is more famous than the other disney people because she is a better singer and she has great vibe. Taylor should take notes from her.
I say who cares!

Weekly Poll
|Curtain comes down on SeaFrance
|Monday, 13 February 2012 17:20
Page 1 of 3
The liquidator of collapsed cross-Channel operator SeaFrance has estimated its debts at €190 million (US$250 million), most of which is owed to its parent, French state railway company SNCF.
The liquidation of the ferry company and the loss of 1850 jobs have sparked a flurry of activity on the cross-Channel market. A Paris commercial court ordered the liquidation on January 9. The Dover-Calais operator had been in receivership since June 2010, and despite bids by the seamen's union French Democratic Confederation of Labour (CFDT) and a joint offer by DFDS and LD Lines at the end of last year, the company could not be saved, leaving a vacuum for new operators to fill.
One of those new operators could be through rival short-sea competitor Eurotunnel. It wasted little time in flagging its intention to put in offers for some of the redundant SeaFrance vessels. Chief Executive Jacques Gounon told a French newspaper that Eurotunnel could be the majority partner in a venture operating a ferry service between Calais and Dover in partnership with a co-operative of former SeaFrance workers.
Danish firm DFDS, which operates between Dover and Dunkirk, has also expanded its services to Calais in a joint venture with western Channel operator LD Lines. They will operate under the French flag and will create 300 jobs, mostly in France. DFDS said: "It's a logical step for us to expand in the market. We've expressed an interest all along to do so when you consider our offer for SeaFrance last year."
In reality, there is already plenty of surplus capacity, particularly with the recent introduction of P&O's 'Spirit of France' alongside the 'Spirit of Britain'.
Meanwhile, what of the ships and the staff? Liquidator Stéphane Gorrias said the first priority was to "safeguard the rights" of SeaFrance's personnel. SNCF has made a commitment to offer jobs to 500 workers.
Next is the evaluation and sale of SeaFrance's assets, in particular its fleet. It owns three vessels: the 'SeaFrance Nord Pas-de-Calais', a freight ship with an estimated value of €9-€10 million; and the ferries 'SeaFrance Berlioz' and 'SeaFrance Rodin', worth between €50 and €70 million each. A fourth ship, 'SeaFrance Moliere', had been operated on lease-back.
The proceeds would still fall well short of SeaFrance's debts of €190 million. And the company's liabilities will have increased with salaries due to redundant workers having to be paid through an independent wage guarantee fund that, ultimately, will have to be reimbursed.
The final stage in the liquidation process will see creditors being paid – Gorrias stressed that the French state and taxpayers should not have to contribute to the bill. Although SNCF is state-owned, and has already put in a claim for the €170 million it is owed, it has to operate like a private firm and must legally bear any losses without state aid.
The liquidator said he was determined to seek out who was responsible for SeaFrance's ruin. For this he will not have to look beyond the powerful CFDT seamen's union and an ineffective management constantly at odds with its strike-happy workforce.
The purchase of the 'SeaFrance Moliere', a fuel thirsty "SuperFast" vessel similar to Australia's 'Spirit of Tasmania', was a rash move at a time when the company was already struggling, probably engineered by accountants in Paris – she was in essence transferred from one state-owned concern to another. The ship, a narrow-beamed, conventional fast ferry designed for overnight passages, was totally unsuited for the 35-kilmetre Dover Strait crossing.
To think that not so long ago SeaFrance was operating a six-ship service on this, the busiest of ferry routes. The replacement of earlier-generation ships with the magnificent newbuilds 'SeaFrance Rodin' and 'SeaFrance Berlioz' simply came too late. This, coupled with overmanning, was always going to lead to disaster and now for the first time, the Dover Strait is without a French operator.

Plant 'body clock' observed in tropical forest research
Story supplied by LU Press Office
Predictions of the ground-level pollutant ozone will be more accurate in future following research led by Lancaster University, published in Nature Geoscience.
Ozone is formed in the atmosphere when volatile organic compounds like isoprene - which is emitted by some plants - react with nitrogen oxides from car engines or industry. Ozone at ground level is very harmful to human health, may decrease crop yields, and is a greenhouse gas.
Researchers, led by Professor Nick Hewitt of the Lancaster Environment Centre, have found that the rate at which plants emit isoprene is influenced by their body clock or circadian rhythm.
This 24-hour circadian rhythm, which also controls leaf movement and respiration in plants, has never before been observed operating in concert in a stand of trees. The discovery alters current estimates of plant-derived isoprene emissions. Ground-level ozone concentrations, calculated using the new isoprene emissions, are then closer to observed concentrations, going some way to resolve a long-standing deficiency in computer simulation of ground-level ozone.
Professor Hewitt said: "We spend billions of pounds trying to control ozone - for example, by putting catalytic convertors in new cars in order to prevent emissions of oxides of nitrogen. This discovery of the circadian rhythm operating on the forest canopy scale is another step in better understanding ozone and improving our models of the atmosphere."
The researchers examined measurements of isoprene made above tropical rainforest and oil palm plantations in Sabah in Malaysia, carried out as part of a £2.5m UK/Malaysian scientific research project.
Dr Eiko Nemitz of the UK Centre for Ecology and Hydrology said: "Our flux measurements show that emissions of isoprene are under circadian control, strongly in the oil palm plantation and less strongly in the rainforest. These ecosystems therefore emit less isoprene than current emissions models predict."
Professor Rob MacKenzie of the University of Birmingham, who led the initial ozone modelling studies, added "Using various models of atmospheric chemistry, we show that this more complete understanding of the processes controlling isoprene emissions yields a better predictive capability for ground-level ozone, especially in isoprene-sensitive regions of the world."
These regions include the south eastern US, the Mediterranean, the Middle East, parts of South East Asia and Japan.
Using computer simulations from the National Centre for Atmospheric Research in Colorado, the team then compared their simulated ground-level ozone with real-life ozone measurements at 290 atmospheric monitoring sites in the US. They found that their model accuracy significantly improved when it included circadian control of isoprene emissions.
The work was funded by the Natural Environment Research Council and the paper Ground-level ozone influenced by circadian control of isoprene emissions is published as part of the Royal Society's South East Asian Rainforest Research Programme.
