Book of Fate by Brad Meltzer
Book DescriptionBrad Meltzer's #1 New York Times bestseller featuring a two-hundred-year-old code devised by Thomas Jefferson and a present-day conspiracy at the highest level of power . "Six minutes from now, one of us would be dead. None of us knew it was coming." So says Wes Holloway, a young presidential aide, about the day he put Ron Boyle, the chief executive's oldest friend, into the president's limousine. By the trip's end, a crazed assassin would permanently disfigure Wes and kill Boyle. Now, eight years later, Boyle has been spotted alive. Trying to figure out what really happened takes Wes back into disturbing secrets buried in Freemason history, a decade-old presidential crossword puzzle, and a two-hundred-year-old code invented by Thomas Jefferson that conceals secrets worth dying for.

TCL Xess Tablet: The 17″ Amazon Alexa Connected Home Hub
We've got two TCL 4K Roku-enabled televisions in our house, and I feel like TCL is one of those brands that isn't yet well-known, but they should be. TCL products are extremely well made, they work exactly as promised, and they are generally well priced.
You're in Control Now That Amazon's Alexa Works with the Logitech Harmony Hub

Amazon Finally Bans Shady Practice of Freebies for "My Honest and Unbiased Review"
Good riddance! Amazon has finally banned the ultra-shady practice of providing free products for honest and unbiased reviews. This creepy practice was showing up in nearly every review of a second or third tier knock-off product I'd read over the past several months. It seemed especially prevalent in the smartphone accessory category.
Amazon Introduces Updated Fire TV Stick – $39 Includes Voice, Alexa

Miss Out on Amazon Reward Visa $30 Offer? Maybe Not!
How did you do on Prime Day? Amazon reported its biggest day ever, 60% bigger than last year's event and ~20% bigger than either Black Friday or Cyber Monday from 2015! Still, some people had difficulties accessing deals, including a high-profile linked deal with Amazon's Rewards Visa card. The deal provided a promo code "VISA30" …
Is Your Wallet Ready for Prime Day?
Good(ish) news-Amazon is bringing back Prime Day tomorrow, July 12th! Prime Day was a bit underwhelming last year, but Amazon is hyping it up big time this year, so hopefully they've learned from past mistakes. In the meantime, they're previewing sales across multiple departments, so it's really more like Prime week!

Lawd Help You If Your 1.5 Year Old Amazon Kindle Voyage Dies
This is a public service announcement for anyone considering buying a Kindle: be sure to get the extended warranty. Why? Because Amazon doesn't repair them (at all) when they break; the best option you will get (after a bit of haggling) is $20 off a new one. You've been warned.

Amazon Now Allows Two-Factor Authentication
One of the weakest links in online accounts is the password. You re-use them and make them easy to guess. Then if (when) there is a breach on a site you used your password you scramble to change it everywhere. Luckily there's a better way to secure that password and it's two-factor authentication.

Amazon Officially Kills Fire Phone-5 Reasons it Was the WORST Smartphone I Ever Owned!
Phones come and go every year, and nobody notices very much.

Such is the case of the critically slammed and commercially failing Amazon Fire Phone, permanently killed off after less …
How Much Did My Local Library Membership Save Us This Summer?
I just went through my Amazon account, and determined I've read 25+ books this summer for free. Some of them were older titles, like Gear Diary Book Club selections, while others were relatively new.

Amazon is eating the costs associated with freemium apps to boost their app downloads, and it is …

Amazon seems to be offering $5 Prime Pantry credit for Prime members who select No-Rush shipping instead of Prime's standard Two-Day method. This $5 credit may replace the prior $2 Video, eBook or MP3 credit being offered to Prime Members who select a slower shipping method.
Jet.com is No Amazon…Yet
Jet.com wants very badly to beat Amazon. That's been the bulk of their marketing push heading up to today's launch, and when you shop around on the site, they consistently try to show you Amazon's price versus theirs. After cross-shopping for a few minutes though, I was deeply unimpressed — both on price and ease of use.
Amazon's New Kindle for Kids Bundle Is Great for Everyone!
Amazon really wants to capture the family media market. They've already pushed the Kindle Fire as a great kid-friendly tablet, and now they're selling a similar bundle using the entry-level Kindle.

American fashion designer Nanette Lepore, an advocate of "Made in the USA", has plans to open stores and shop-in-shops in Shanghai, Beijing, and Hong Kong.
Clothes for her China stores will continue to be manufactured in the US.
The first shop-in-shop will open in March or April 2012 in Jiu Guang department store in Shanghai. According to Robert Savage, chief executive officer of Lepore and Lepore's husband, this will be followed by four more freestanding stores or shop-in-shops in 2013 with two in Shanghai, one in Beijing and one in Hong Kong.
Nanette Lepore stores will be about 1,600 to 1,800 square feet. Space availability will determine whether they will be freestanding stores or shop-in-shops according to Savage.
Currently, Lepore only sells through Seibu Department Stores in Hong Kong for the China market. Most of her stores are located in the US, but she has locations in Tokyo and London.
Lepore enjoys a strong following among editors, style-makers and celebrities including Freida Pinto, Sharon Stone, Blake Lively, Leighton Meester, Eva Longoria Parker, Scarlett Johansson, Taylor Swift, Miley Cyrus, and Abigail Breslin.

VINCENT CORTESE, ON BEHALF OF HIMSELF AND ALL OTHERS SIMILARLY SITUATED, PLAINTIFF,v.EDGE SOLUTIONS, INC., DEFENDANT.
Before the court is the plaintiff's motion dated March 27, 2006, seeking to compel responses to his Interrogatories, Request for the Production of Documents and Request for Admissions of Facts and his Motion to Deem the Facts Admitted. The defendant did not timely respond to the motion, but has sent the court a letter requesting a premotion conference. For the reasons set forth below, the motions are granted.
On October 14, 2005, counsel for the defendant, Mr. Regan, indicated that he intended to move to withdraw. In response, the court directed him to file his motion to withdraw by October 28, 2005, but he did not do so. On November 30, 2005, the undersigned held an initial telephone conference during which time Mr. Regan once again reported to the court that he would be submitting a motion to withdraw. Based on Mr. Regan's representation, the undersigned delayed entering the discovery schedule and provided Mr. Regan with an additional week to submit his motion to be relieved as counsel. Once again, Mr. Regan did not do so. Accordingly, on December 13, 2005, the court entered a scheduling order and warned Mr. Regan that as the attorney of record for the defendant, he was required to continue to act on its behalf.
On January 10, 2006, the plaintiff served the defendant with discovery requests consisting of Interrogatories, Request for the Production of Documents and Requests to Admit. When the defendant failed to respond, plaintiff's counsel forwarded a letter to Mr. Regan indicating that the responses were overdue and requesting that the defendant respond in ten days.*fn1 Despite counsel's letter and the court's warning that Mr. Regan continue to act on behalf of the defendant, the defendant has not responded to the requests. Accordingly, the motion to compel responses to the plaintiff's discovery requests is granted, as unopposed.
The consequence of a failure to respond to a Rule 36 request for admission is automatic. If a recipient of a Request to Admit fails to respond to it in writing within thirty days, the matters set forth in the Request are admitted. Thus, the matters set forth in the plaintiff's Request for Admission are, for the purposes of this action, deemed admitted.
The defendant's request for a premotion conference is denied. The request for a premotion conference regarding the motion to dismiss should be made to the District Judge.

After high jobless rates in the past, a higher percentage of Wisconsin's National Guard members now have jobs than the state's overall population.
Two years ago, the jobless rate for members of Wisconsin Army National Guard was 10 percent. Now it's half that, according to an annual employment survey conducted by the Guard's Wisconsin Employment Resource Connection [1] (WERC).
WERC's manager is Captain Joe Ledger. He says since 2012, WERC has helped 530 service members, and their spouses, get jobs, with most of the hires occurring last year,"at an average of $17 an hour, so these aren't low paying jobs.
"Over the past 14 months we been able to place over 400 (individuals). We've done over 700 resumes, either reviewed or created them, and currently our caseload is 600 individuals," Ledger went on.
Those numbers include Army Guard and Air National Guard. Both have lower rates of unemployment now than 2 years ago, with the Army Guard having the biggest drop.
The commander of the Wisconsin National Guard is Major General Donald Dunbar. He says jobs for service members allows them to focus on their mission, not worry about finances.
"We need the support of the community and the employer," Dunbar said. "What we've seen in the last two years has been employers coming through to support not only the National Guard but our broader veterans' community."
The WERC program provides service members interview coaching, helps them prepare resumes and find employers.

ACC Reminder – Painting Your Home
When you paint your home, including using the same colors, you must submit an ACC application, including all paint colors covering; base, trim, roof-line, accent (front door, shutters) and garage doors.
Garage doors shall be painted the base color of the home. In rare instances the ACC will look at trim color for the garage door, but it must look appropriate to the home.
Need Help Choosing Paint Colors?
The ACC worked with a local paint supplier to put together suggested paint colors that we feel are a good match for Piney Creek. These books can be checked out at the club house with the community manager. We've had a lot of wonderful comments from residents who did not know where to start to pick colors and have ended up with some gorgeous homes!
Please take advantage of this community benefit. Don't be afraid to request an ACC committee member come to your home to help if you need another opinion or guidance.

APPEAL from the Circuit Court of Lake County; the Hon. THOMAS
R. DORAN, Judge, presiding.
This case concerns the validity of a five-year collective bargaining agreement between a local board of education and a teachers' union, and a provision of the agreement calling for the automatic adjustment of the teachers' base salaries during the four final years of the agreement, the amount of such adjustments to be determined by reference to a certain "Consumer Price Index" published by the United States Department of Labor. The teachers' union, known as the "Libertyville Education Association" (hereafter the "Teachers"), filed an action against the Board of Education of School District No. 70) (hereafter the "Board"), seeking to enforce their five-year contract with the Board. The trial court granted the Board's motion for summary judgment, and the Teachers have appealed.
The Board entered into the collective bargaining agreement with the Teachers on September 11, 1972. The agreement was for a term extending from July 1, 1972, to June 30, 1977, and provided in part that:
"The base salary for the school year 1972-73 will be $8,000, which base salary will, for each of the succeeding 4 years, be automatically adjusted according to the Consumer Price Index for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers for Chicago, as prepared by the U.S. Department of Labor."
It further provided that other, nonsalary issues would continue to be subject to annual negotiation, but that "* * * in no event shall any change be made in the professional negotiations agreement that would in any way obligate the Board to negotiate on salary in violation of the terms of this agreement until the year 1977 * * *." According to the complaint filed by the Teachers herein, the five-year term of the agreement was included at the initiation and insistence of the Board. The Board retained complete discretion to set the salaries of untenured teachers employed after the date of the agreement.
For the next three years, the Teachers were paid in accordance with the terms of the agreement. However, in 1975, the Board insisted that the Teachers accept a 3 1/2 percent pay increase, in lieu of the cost of living increase provided for in the agreement. When the teachers refused to agree to this modification, the Board unilaterally imposed a new salary schedule, and the instant action resulted.
The ground for the trial court's entry of the summary judgment was its holding that the Board had no authority to enter into a contract in 1972 to "bind successor boards" to a multiyear salary agreement; the Board consists of seven members, two (three on every third year) of whom are elected for a term of three years the second Saturday in April of each year, and the agreement was thus for a period exceeding the terms of office of the Board's members.
The Board has cited a number of cases which it contends compel the result reached by the trial court. In Stevenson v. School Directors (1877), 87 Ill. 255, cited by the Board, a teacher and two members of the local board of education entered into a contract on December 10, 1875, for a nine-months' term, commencing on April 3, 1876. The statute in force at that time provided for an annual election of one board member in each district, to be held on the first Saturday of April. The court held that the contract was unenforceable under the statute then in effect, the "spirit and intent" of which was "clearly repugnant to the idea that one board * * * may, by contracts wholly to be carried out in the future, divest future boards * * * of the power to select the teachers they shall desire, for the terms to be commenced after their organization." 87 Ill. 255, 258-59.) In Davis v. School Directors (1879), 92 Ill. 293, two members of a local board (without informing the third member), entered into a contract to employ a teacher for a three-month term, commencing on April 17, 1876. The school board election was held on April 15, and one of the two directors who had negotiated the contract ceased to hold office. The board then disavowed the contract; this action was deemed lawful by the Supreme Court of Illinois, which held that since the contract was to be performed entirely during the succeeding school year, it was invalid. Thus, in both Stevenson and Davis, the court struck down contracts with teachers for terms extending beyond the terms of office of members of the board.
Stevenson and Davis are dubious authority for the trial court's ruling in this case, however. Their precedential value has to a considerable extent been obscured by statutory changes which have occurred during the century since they were decided. The applicable statute was amended in 1927 (see Sloan v. School Directors (1940), 373 Ill. 511) so as to allow three-year terms of service for teachers, and in Sloan, it was held that the statutory change nullified the holdings in Stevenson and Davis. The statute was changed again with the passage of the act establishing tenure for teachers (Ill. Rev. Stat. 1941, ch. 122, par. 136c), but in Hostrop v. Board of Junior College District No. 515 (7th Cir. 1975), 523 F.2d 569, 574-75, the court, in passing upon the tenure statute applicable to junior colleges, held that the enactment of tenure laws was not intended to reinstate the principles of Stevenson and Davis, but to "give the board authority to establish its own policies with respect to tenure * * *." Thus, the present effect of the Stevenson and Davis holdings that a school board cannot enter into a contract to be performed after the current school year is doubtful.
Further, Stevenson and Davis would not compel the result reached by the trial court, even assuming that the rule announced therein has stood immutable through the years. Both cases involved a contract purporting to bind the school board to employ a particular teacher, regardless of the outcome of the annual election, thus (in those days of one-room schools and one-school districts), rendering the election irrelevant to a considerable degree, and thwarting the will of voters who were dissatisfied with the educational program. An analogous arrangement was held to be unenforceable in People ex rel. Davidson v. Bradley (1943), 382 Ill. 383, cited by the Board, where the teachers alleged that under "longcontinued custom and tradition" they were entitled to "a continuing tenure as schoolteachers until discharged for cause," even though the teacher tenure law was not then in effect. 382 Ill. 383, 385.) The court held that absent a statute providing continued tenure for teachers, "a public-school board, under authority to appoint teachers and fix their salaries, may not employ them for a tenure longer than the current school year." 382 Ill. 383, 385.) By contrast, in the instant case, the collective bargaining agreement did not purport to limit the Board's authority to hire or discharge teachers, and the old problem of whether or not a board can contractually bind itself to employ a particular teacher for a term longer than the current school year has, in any event, been pre-empted by the teacher tenure laws 382 Ill. 383). This case is thus readily distinguishable from Stevenson and Davis. Beyond this distinction, it should be observed that neither Stevenson nor Davis held that all contracts with teachers with terms extending beyond the current school year were invalid. Instead, the court in each case only condemned contracts which were to be carried out entirely during the succeeding school year; in fact, as to teacher contracts generally, the court in Stevenson expressly stated that:
"There is, doubtless, no objection to contracts for the teaching of terms extending for a reasonable time beyond the current school year, when such contracts are entered into in good faith, and not for the purpose, merely, of forcing upon the district an unsatisfactory teacher or defeating the will of the voters at the annual election." (Emphasis added.) 87 Ill. 255, 258.
1, 2 We believe that the trial court was in error when it held that the Board had no power to enter into the multiyear contract. The School Code contains a general grant of power to school boards to "appoint all teachers and fix the amount of their salaries subject to limitation set forth in this Act * * *." (Ill. Rev. Stat. 1975, ch. 122, par. 24-1.) In construing this grant, it has been held that:
"From the language the legislature has employed, it is clear that a school board has discretionary control over the salaries of its teachers, subject only to any limits expressly fixed by the School Code and to constitutional prohibitions against actions that are arbitrary, discriminatory and unreasonable, or based upon an improper classification." (Emphasis added.) (Richards v. Board of Education (1960), 21 Ill.2d 104, 109.) While the School Code contains a number of limitations upon the power of school boards to fix the salaries of teachers (e.g., Ill. Rev. Stat. 1975, ch. 122, par. 10-20.7 (prohibiting discrimination on account of sex, or loss of pay because of jury duty); par. 10-20.15 (prohibiting payment of salaries to uncertified teachers, or teachers who have failed to account for school property); par. 24-1 (providing for teachers' wages to be paid monthly)), there is no provision in the Code prohibiting a local board from fixing the amount of the teachers' salaries by entering into a multiyear agreement. This stands in contrast to the statute which was construed in Board of Education v. Chicago Teachers Union (1975), 26 Ill. App.3d 806. There, the court held that in view of an express provision in the School Code prohibiting the Chicago Board of Education from making any contract without a prior appropriation *fn1. (Ill. Rev. Stat. 1975, ch. 122, par. 34-49), a two-year collective bargaining agreement with the Chicago Board of Education entered into without a prior appropriation for the second year was void. However, the court observed that collective bargaining agreements between school boards and school employees "are necessary for the sound administration of a modern public school system. [Citations.]," and that "multiyear contracts can be the source of stability between a public employer and its employees" (26 Ill. App.3d 806, 812). It is notable that the court neither cited nor discussed Stevenson or Davis, and it seems clear that, but for the express statutory prohibitions, the court would not have ruled that the agreement was void. (See 26 Ill. App.3d 806, 812-13.) The board in the instant case was not fettered by the provisions of section 34-49 (which applies only to the Chicago Board of Education), and it was held in a number of cases in sister States that there is no general rule of law prohibiting boards of education from entering into contracts extending beyond the terms of office of members of the board. (North Royalton Education Association v. North Royalton Board of Education (1974), 41 Ohio App.2d 209, 325 N.E.2d 901; Horvat v. Jenkins Township School District (1940), 337 Pa. 193, 10 A.2d 390; State ex rel. Brown v. Polk County (1932), 165 Tenn. 196, 54 S.W.2d 714; Tate v. School District No. 11 (1929), 324 Mo. 477, 23 S.W.2d 1013.) As the court said in North Royalton Education Association v. North Royalton Board of Education (1974), 41 Ohio App.2d 209, 325 N.E.2d 901, 907:
"The proposition that one public official should not be able to bind a successor founders on the lack of a clear comprehension of the capacity in which a public official operates. He performs not for himself or for his successors. His principal is the public and when he acts for it he can bind it to contracts beyond his term in the absence of statutory impediments."
Since the School Code contains a general grant of power to the Board to fix the salaries of teachers and there is no statute prohibiting the board from entering into a collective bargaining agreement for a term of more than one year, it is clear that the collective bargaining agreement in the case was not void or invalid merely because it was for a term extending beyond the terms of office of the individual members of the Board.
The Board has argued that if the enforceability of multiyear teacher contracts is sustained, it will be possible for improvident or irresponsible local boards to enter into collective bargaining agreements with teachers, which would bind the taxpayers of the district to shoulder ruinous financial burdens of paying possibly excessive salaries for terms extending many years beyond the terms of office of the board members who negotiated the agreement. The complete answer to this specter can be found in the rule announced in Stevenson v. School Directors (1877) 87 Ill. 255, 258, that such contracts may only be for a reasonable term beyond the end of the current school year, that they must be entered into in good faith, and may not be used for wholly thwarting the will of the voters at the annual election. In our view, at least this much of Stevenson is as applicable today as when the case was decided.
3 In the instant case, there has been no allegation of bad faith, and it does not appear from the face of the record that the five-year term of the collective bargaining agreement was unreasonable, particularly since the agreement did not bind the Board to arbitrary salary increments for the teachers, but was instead obviously an effort to enable the teachers to stabilize their economic status through the means of salary adjustments approximately congruent with increases or decreases in the cost of living, as reflected by the Department of Labor's Consumer Price Index. Thus, the fact that the collective bargaining agreement was for a term of five years, could not, by itself, provide grounds for the trial court's granting of the Board's motion for summary judgment.
4 The Board has contended, as an additional ground for affirming the judgment of the trial court, that the provision for an automatic "cost of living" adjustment constituted an unlawful delegation of the Board's duty to fix the salaries of teachers. It is well established that school boards have the duty to appoint teachers, and fix their salaries, and that this duty is discretionary and may not be delegated. (Illinois Education Association v. Board of Education (1975), 62 Ill.2d 127; Board of Trustees v. Cook County College Teachers Union (1976), 62 Ill.2d 470; Board of Education v. Rockford Education Association (1972), 3 Ill. App.3d 1090.) In this case, however, no third party was to determine the salary of the teachers; that salary was to be determined, instead, by resort to a formula regarding which the Board had freely agreed. Far from delegating any duty, the Board performed its duty to fix the teachers' salaries, by agreeing that the teachers would receive a certain specific base pay, with annual adjustments approximately reflective of the cost of living, as indicated by the Consumer Price Index. Cf. Board of Trustees v. Cook County College Teachers Union (1976), 62 Ill.2d 470, 480 (collective bargaining agreement requiring extra work assignments to be offered to qualified teachers under a rotational basis, held not to constitute an invalid delegation of the board's duty to assign teachers).
The Teachers have raised a number of other arguments, including the contention that, after having received benefits under the multiyear contract for three years, the Board is now estopped from avoiding its obligations under the contract; however, in view of our holding, it is unnecessary for us to pass upon these arguments.
For the foregoing reasons, the judgment of the circuit court of Lake County is reversed and remanded for further proceedings not inconsistent with this opinion.
Reversed and remanded.

April 22, 1975
Joseph MEYER, Plaintiff,
MOORE-McCORMACK LINES, INC., Defendant and Third-Party Plaintiff. v. ARDELL MARINE CORPORATION, Third-Party Defendant
BRUCHHAUSEN, District Judge.
This action is for personal injuries, allegedly sustained on October 3, 1967 by the plaintiff longshoreman against the vessel, S. S. Normacpenn, owned, operated, and under the control of the defendant, Moore-McCormack Lines, Inc.
The plaintiff moved for an order striking the Fifth, Sixth, and Seventh defenses, interposed by the defendant. The main thrust of the motion is to strike the defense of laches, interposed as the Fifth defense. The defendant requested that the Court delay any decision upon the Fifth and Sixth defenses until it be given an opportunity to conduct full discovery to establish prejudice, if any, on its behalf. The Court granted this request and subsequently all pre-trial discovery was completed. The parties have now submitted additional affidavits for a determination of this motion.
The Court refers all parties to its original memorandum, 398 F. Supp. 551 in which all the pertinent facts were discussed. It is, therefore, unnecessary to reiterate them in this opinion, and it is incorporated by reference herein.
The Court in Hill v. W. Bruns & Co., 498 F.2d 565 (Cir. 2) (1974), held in part at page 568:
"In an admiralty suit state statutes of limitations are not strictly applied; instead, the doctrine of laches controls. Czaplicki v. The Hoegh Silvercloud, 351 U.S. 525, 533, 76 S. Ct. 946, 100 L. Ed. 1387 (1956); Larios v. Victory Carriers, Inc., 316 F.2d [65] at 65. The courts are not to resort to mechanical application of local statutes of limitation in determining the issue of laches. See, e. g., Conty v. States Marine Lines, Inc., 355 F.2d 26, 28 & n. 3 (2nd Cir. 1966); Oroz v. American President Lines, 259 F.2d 636, 638 (2nd Cir. 1958), cert. denied, 359 U.S. 908, 79 S. Ct. 584, 3 L. Ed. 2d 572 (1959). No presumption attaches from the expiration of the applicable period of limitations. Larios v. Victory Carriers, Inc., 316 F.2d at 66. Accordingly, the 'peculiar equitable circumstances' of the case are determinative, Czaplicki v. The Hoegh Silvercloud, 351 U.S. at 533, and a court must examine the excuse for delay and prejudice to the defendant as a result of the delay. Gardner v. Panama Railway Co., 342 U.S. 29, 31, 72 S. Ct. 12, 96 L. Ed. 31 (1951)."
This Court faced with the above rules of law must now apply the peculiar facts of this case to the above rules of law to determine whether or not, in its discretion, the defense of laches is appropriate.
The accident allegedly occurred on October 3, 1967. The compensation lien was then forwarded to the defendant on December 4, 1969. A summons was then served on August 24, 1970, and an appearance interposed by the defendant on September 2, 1970. The case laid dormant for approximately two years when on June 14, 1972 a complaint which had been tendered was rejected by the defendant. Thereafter, the defendant moved for a dismissal which motion was granted on July 14, 1972, and a motion for reconsideration was denied on April 30, 1973. Thereafter, the present law firm was retained and the present action commenced in this district court on June 19, 1973. It is also alleged that the prior attorney had limited experience in the field of maritime law.
The defendant urges that the delay in prosecuting this case has prejudiced its defense. The plaintiff was produced on March 4, 1975, and was deposed concerning the accident. A defense of contributory negligence among others was interposed. If this defense be sustained, there would be a reduction in any damage award, and by such finding the defendant would be able to establish its claim over against Ardell, the stevedore. In this respect, the defendant has been prejudiced by the death of one Joseph Piazza, an eye witness to the accident, who gave an inconsistent version of that of the plaintiff, concerning the happening of the accident.
The defendant also alleges prejudice as a result of the delay because the third-party defendant is no longer in business, and upon information and belief there is no person or records available to be used in its claim for indemnity. Furthermore, the vessel has been sold and scrapped and is no longer available for inspection of the accident site to determine which safety valve popped.
Finally, the defendant is faced with immense difficulties in defending this stale action.
In opposition to these alleged prejudices, it is urged that the original counsel inexperienced in maritime law, was at fault in not processing the state action.
The defendant was advised of this claim as early as April 22, 1968 when it received a claim letter from the original attorney, concerning this accident. Thereafter, subsequent to the service of the state court summons, an oral statement was taken from Joseph Piazza (deceased) by one Clement Crillo, whose report is in the possession of the defendant. The plaintiff has submitted a stipulation consenting to the admission in evidence of this statement.
It is alleged that counsel for the defendant stated that the accident to this plaintiff was reported to the officer in the engine room when it happened. Furthermore, defendant obtained a statement from one Louis Neuror on September 21, 1970 concerning this accident.
Finally, it is alleged that the defendant has photographs or diagrams of the area where the accident occurred. They were made during August 1970.
The Court upon reviewing the events and information obtained after full discovery has been completed, concludes that there is no prejudice shown by the defendant to sustain its burden of the defense of laches. As a matter of fact the position of the defendant has been weakened from the time the original motion was considered. The facts clearly indicate that the defendant was aware of this accident when it was reported to the engine officer on the day of the occurrence. In the prior memorandum of this Court, it was noted that a notice of lien was served upon the defendant on December 4, 1969, however, this fact was not listed in the chronology of events, submitted by the defendant. In the prior memorandum of law submitted by the defendant, it is stated on page 4, in substance, that this is an unreported accident and no mention of any accident was listed in the deck or engine log books. As stated above, it was shown that the accident was reported to the engine room officer. If he did not report it to his superior, apparently no log entry would have been entered.
The discovery process indicated that the defendant was further advised of the accident when it received a claim letter from the prior attorney, dated April 23, 1968, and by a notice of lien by the compensation carrier on December 4, 1969.
Furthermore, discovery indicated that the defendant did conduct investigations of this accident and, therefore, has knowledge thereof. The defendant, upon receipt of notice of an alleged accident from various sources conducted no investigation and thus has no one to blame except itself. However, here, such is not the case.
The Court concludes that the peculiar equitable circumstances tip in favor of the plaintiff, and guided by Hill v. W. Bruns & Co., supra, grants the plaintiff's motion.
The Court orders that this matter be set down for trial on June 2, 1975, at 10 A.M. in this part.
It is so ordered.

When emotions are running high, hurtful words can be said which in ,any cases, one might be unable to come back from, as the saying goes; "When emotion goes up… intelligence goes down."
This immediately makes the speaker sound like he is god over his or her partner. The word must, makes you seem like you are in complete control and only what you say must be followed or adhered to.
The word expect in a sentence to your partner sends an accusatory message which in turn puts that person in a defensive/failure mood.'I expected you to do it…'
When you make sentences like 'I assumed you …" it simply means you feel the person is dumb to have done a certain thing.
Using the word should means you are asserting your authority in a relationship which is believed to be on equal bases.
"You never do……' it will only create a crack in your perfectly guarded relationship. Its an accusatory word.

What a great gift for the nature lover - an organic necklace! A whopping 74-inch necklace of seeds and just painstakingly re-strung on new cord. These wild tropical grass seeds resemble tears and are also known as Christ's tears, as well as other names. Said to have been gathered for centuries for food as well as jewelry making. They are interspersed with sections of a smaller and flatter seeds that I have not been able to identify.
Age is unknown, but they have been in my family for at least 30 years and may have been a tourist purchase in the 1970s. Job's Tears are still coated with their original turquoise paint. The smaller ones appear to have been dipped or polished in their natural dark brown color. Very unusual and a nice gift for the nature enthusiast.
A few things rare. The usual and unusual. A chance to jog old memories or start new ones.

Skip to comments.Is McCain a Fraud?
Posted on 06/21/2004 10:43:47 AM PDT by John Lenin
June 21, 2004--The conventional wisdom is that Senator McCain is off-limits to criticism. He is the quintessential hero--a decorated ex-prisoner of war in the Vietnam conflict. For awhile, the Kerry campaign flirted with the illusion that he could be added to the Democratic ticket as Kerry's running mate, making it a virtually unbeatable combination. To be sure, instant polls had a Kerry-McCain ticker winning in November in a landslide.
On June 19, before adoring troops at Fort Lewis, Washington, Bush received a full-bore endorsement from McCain, and, more importantly, a ratification of Bush's strategy in Iraq, including the obligatory "stay the course" rhetoric. The A.P. wire service reported this event, indicating that McCain's blandishments to Bush went far beyond the bounds of the merely perfunctory, and used language about the threats posed by terrorists and, before the war, by Saddam Hussein, "in words matching the starkest language Bush and Vice President Cheney have employed."
(Excerpt) Read more at baltimorechronicle.com ...
Sounds like the rats are bitter about McCain not going with J Effing K ... LOL!
That's a dumb question.
Of course he is.
Tyldesley believes that the media is supporting Bush. I think that pretty much shoots his credibility.
How about Bush/McCain?
Yeah, that figures. Now that McCain comes out for Bush, the media suddenly says he's a fraud. I think I see things more clearly: The media is a fraud.
NO politician is off limits to criticism.
Written by a watermelon...
This POW/MIA issue. Why during all the investigation that thousands of lost souls were left behind in WWII, Korea and Vietnam/Laos. Anyone who took this issue to heart (Sen Bob Smith (R) N.H.) for one were burnt for seeking the truth. Meanwhile McCain has sided with Kerry. Once a commie always a commie.
Is McCain a fraud? Yes. But the press likes to call him a "maverick". I prefer "beady-eyed political whore".
Who's conventional wizdumb?
Is McCain a wolf in sheep's clothing or is McCain a demoncRAT in pubby clothing? Yes to both.
Kerry, it seems, spent the last three months begging Republican John McCain to run as his vice president. He didn't ask officially (whatever that means) but he asked seven times. "I don't want to formally ask because I don't want to be formally rejected, but having said that, would you do it?" an aide who ran messages between the two senators quoted Kerry's approach to The New York Times. Each time, each of seven times, McCain's answer was the same: an unequivocal no.
Hey, John, wanna be my veep?
No thanks.
I'm gonna pretend I didn't hear that. So. Shall we print up some buttons?
Come on, man. I need you.
You're kidding! You know the Republicans will never nominate you for the presidency! They hate your ass!
Whatever. I said no.
Dude! Don't be like that. Yes is such an easy word to say. Say it.
Get a life, John. Don't contact me unless it's about legislation. Got it?
Look, I'll be honest. The CBS poll says you'll give me a 14-point boost if you join the team. I gotta have you. I can't take no for an answer.
No means no, John. No. No. No.
Hey, thanks, I appreciate it. I'll call a press conference for noon. Kerry-McCain 2004!
I'm getting a restraining order against you, you jowly bassett-hound-eyed freak!!!
Seven times. Has John Kerry lost his mind?
This guy has his panties in a twist because McCain is - ta da - a Republican who supports a Republican President. Imagine that! The author is acting like a woman scorned, and I love the little innuendo about "pardoning" Cheney and the "media support" for the Bush/Cheney ticket. Personally, I think the guy is a Nader/Camejo voter.
I see a bright future for John McCain if Bush is re-elected. He may be a maverick at times but he is our maverick !
McCain's service should be applauded. But why would we want a RINO to replace Cheney? Good Lord in heaven! If the media wants a liberal love fest like Kerry/McCain, why and the world would Republicans want a ticket that becomes MORE liberal?
"Voodoo economics!"
Read my lips, no new taxes!
"We have won the (first) Gulf War; the Iraqi people will topple Saddam!"
"There is no recession on the horizon!"
"David Souter will make a great Supreme Court justice..."
(fast forward)
"They will welcome us as liberators..."
"We will find the WMD as soon as we get there!
"We don't need that many troops..."
"Mission Accomplished!!"
"Clinton really is a nice guy (last week)"<
Tyldesley believes that the media is supporting Bush. I think that pretty much shoots his credibility.
I went over to DU a few minutes ago, because I wanted a shadenfraude moment, reveling in the angst over the Nader/Camejo ticket. But they are collectively pretending that there was no such announcement today.
What they are talking about is how The New York Times is part of the dastardly Karl Rove political machine, because they had a story about Kerry going boating that implied that he and his wife are quite wealthy.
Just vote for Kerry and get it over with.
I see you've been raiding Cindy McCain's medicine cabinet again.
|ACU Ratings for Senator Mccain:
|Year 2003
|Year 2002
McCain isn't Presidential or Vice-Presidential material....for either party. He's not mentally stable.
They had to ask?
At least he won't be out there working for Kerry.
This article is nothing more than an assault on McCain from the hard environmental left.
Gee ... a Greenie denouncing a Republican? Next your going to tell me the sun has a tendency to rise in the East...
We'll see. He'll do anything for attention.
I guess the same could have been said asked when Reagan picked Bush as his running mate. "Why...would Republicans want a ticket that becomes MORE liberal?" It's all about winning and putting the best ticket out there to attract the votes of the 10% independent, undecided, moderate voter who decides every election. If the Republicans could depend on a 60-70% turnout of their rank and file there would be no need for these silly games.
Everytime we pick a liberal candidate, we take a step backwards. This country has moved more to the left in the past 10 years than any other time. And when a Republican or conservative gets elected, they have to correct the mess. For every two steps made by liberalism, there's only one step back, which means getting more and more liberal is inevitable...
UNLESS we stop it now.
Instead of picking a media darling, why not pick someone more conservative? If you want to jump on the 'let the media pick the candidate' bandwagon, go for it. I've been taken on that ride before, and have no intention to go on it again.
Never please! Or say goodbye to your base.
If he runs with Kerry and Kerry loses, he's toast because losing VP candidates are nothing in the twisted world of Democrat politics -- even losing Democrat presidential candidates rarely get a second shot at the top spot.
If he runs with Kerry and Kerry wins, he will just be another Vice President.
McCain's best hope is to support Bush for President. Regardless of whether a Bush-Cheney ticket wins or loses, supporting Bush is in McCain's best interest for 2008.
If Bush dumps Cheney (which I don't think is a high probability, though I do think it is more probably that Cheney will withdraw his name.), McCain is one of the logical replacements. Only Rudy Guiliani, Colin Powell, and Condi Rice would seem to be contenders. So let's examine the two possibilities of a Bush-McCain versus Kerry-Gonzo ticket.
If Bush-McCain wins, McCain will almost be guaranteed being at the head of the 2008 ticket with Guiliani or Powell or Rice.
If Bush-McCain loses, McCain will still be in the hunt for the top spot on the ticket in 2008.
The bottom line is that being with Bush has a future, but being with Kerry has no future for McCain.
{I would posit that you can drop the words "for McCain" from the last sentence and it becomes a truism for all Americans who are not recipients of government largess.
I appreciate the genralization but I've never spoken well of McLame.
Anyone else doing so simply has an agenda that is neither Conservative nor Constitutional...maybe Loserdopians & Liberals....now they might like him.
Hillary would love the news! McCain out of the senate, not stealing the senate spotlight, and we can assume he would not run for president in 2008 as her rival, because of his cancer history, senate corruption history, and age.
Of course we know John McCain isn't about to give up his carefully cultivated position as super-star senator, bold renegade, nor climb down from his spotlighted senate pedestal, erected by an adoring press corps. The vice presidency for John McCain would be his personal hell, 4 years in another kind of prison, it's just not gonna happen.
(Keeping control of the senate is important too. Bush couldn't afford to take an (R) Vote out.)
But a fun read!
McCain removed himself from the "darling of the GOP" category. And.....the last time that people like you turned on a Bush, we ended up with the Clintons for 8+ years. Thanks for nothing. It looks like you will stay home, vote Third Party, or vote Democrat in November. Which will it be?
Probably write-in my vote! Though thoroughly disappointed in Bush, I am disgusted with Kerry.
I just don't get the affection for Dubyah...let me cite just one example of his incompetence as CinC: There is an old saying credited to Napolean (heard many times on G. Gordon Liddy's show) it goes, "When you set out to take Vienna, TAKE VIENNA!"
Apparently, that maxim is lost on Bush if the Battle of Fallujah is any example. How the hell can he justify losing fine Marine lives when he gives the order to pull back and let a former Iraqi colonel take over the operation?
Then there's the issue with troop numbers and his complete disregard for the need of more fighters (despite what you've heard, WE NEED THEM).
Nevertheless, I won't convince anyone on this thread...go drink the Koolaid, perhaps after suffering 4 years of Kerry you'll be convinced that Bush was the wrong man for the job...
"Is McCain a fraud?" is the wrong question.
Did the media perpetrate "fraud" on the American people during the 2000 GOP primaries? is the question.
And the answer is a resounding "YES".
As for the VP slot on the GOP ticket....there is only one voice that matters on this subject. The President's.
And George W Bush has made it crystal clear, Cheney's his VP.
The only people that question it are those that have been shut out of the Whitehouse, on both sides of the aisle.
Then you're part of the problem. Your write-in will hurt Bush (who disappointed you) and will help Kerry (who disgusted you). Thanks for nothing.
...let me cite just one example...
Do you really think the Democrats would have done any better? Get real.
...perhaps after suffering 4 years of Kerry you'll be convinced that Bush was the wrong man for the job...
And allow Kerry to nominate 2 or lifetime more Supreme Court justices and a slew of judges? (4 years?..Try 8 years). That's the misguided, Conservative death-wish mentality that elected the Clintons.
Bush/Rice is the ticket in 04, setting up Rice vs Clinton in 2008. I'll go for Rice/McCain in 2008. ..if McCain is still a republican.
Sorry, but just cannot see rewarding someone who's failed as badly as 43...and, although I'll hold my nose for the next four years, I do see hope if Kerry is elected: HE WILL BE SO BAD HE'LL MAKE THE GOP TAKEOVER OF CONGRESS IN 1994 LOOK LIKE A CAKEWALK BECAUSE VIRTUALLY EVERY LIBERAL DEMOCRAT LINKED TO HIM WILL GO DOWN IN 2006!
Don't take this personally, but that is the most idiotic, stupidest, short-sighted, POS statement we've seen in quite a while. But you already know that. Do you call yourself a conservative?
I do, but I use the term "moral conservative" because, after all, that is what conservatives are supposed to be! Accordingly, as such, I would never stoop to the sane offensive terms you used to describe my posting!
If the truth bothers you, you can always ignore it.
