text: Wednesday roundtable: Which 2014 recruit will make biggest impact? April 23, 2014 1 Comment Share tweet Michael Peterson Senior Staff Writer David Cohn Senior Staff Writer Vihan Lakshman Senior Staff Writer By: Michael Peterson, David Cohn and Vihan Lakshman Stanford football has continued to develop the long-term future of its program by translating its on-the-field success to victories on the recruiting trail as well, netting what ESPN ranked as the 15th-best recruiting class in the nation for 2014. Although they have not yet started practicing with the team and will arrive on campus in about eight weeks, we thought that it was never too early to start thinking about these newcomers. We asked football writers Michael Peterson, Vihan Lakshman and David Cohn: Which of the freshmen of the incoming class is primed to make the biggest immediate impact? Freshman wide receiver Francis Owusu (above) was the only member of his class to see game action in the 2013 season. He played in 12 games, yet his two catches and 56 total yards on the season all came in the Big Game against Cal on Nov. 23. (AVI BAGLA/The Stanford Daily) Michael: I'm going to go with a little bit of a lesser-known pick here. More than likely, it will be difficult for any of Stanford's 2014 recruits to see significant time on the field. Highly-touted recruits Keller Chryst, Dalton Schultz and Solomon Thomas would each have to overcome talent and depth at their respective positions to crack the rotation. Even though the race for the starting tight end job is technically wide open, Schultz's current size (233 pounds) and blocking skills will probably limit him from being becoming the go-to guy this early on in his career. But if a freshman does emerge as a key contributor, I think it will be defensive back Brandon Simmons, the first recruit to sign in Stanford's 2014 class. Simmons will certainly need to add more weight this offseason, as he currently weighs only 171 pounds. Historically though, head coach David Shaw has used freshmen in the secondary if they show potential. Current sophomore Alex Carter started in the final seven games of his true freshman campaign and led the team with three forced fumbles. Junior Wayne Lyons played the first two games of his Stanford career as a freshman before a broken foot ended his season prematurely. As a Rivals.com four-star recruit, Simmons possesses the talent necessary to earn time in the Card's secondary. A safety by trade, Simmons could even compete with senior Kyle Olugbode and junior Kodi Whitfield for time occupying Ed Reynolds' vacated free safety position. If Simmons does play his freshman year, though, it might be more likely to come at cornerback due to his current size. I wouldn't claim that Simmons will become a regular this season for the Card, but depth in the secondary is always vital and Shaw has shown that he is willing to allow freshmen to play there. David: In all honesty, I do not believe we will see very many members of the 2014 recruiting class on the field this coming season, as the overwhelming majority of players will end up redshirting to help them acclimate to life as a Stanford football player and a Stanford student-athlete. However, if I had to pick one player who could play as a true freshman, I would go with running back Christian McCaffrey. While McCaffrey has a very similar skillset to running back Kelsey Young, McCaffrey also has the ability to line up as a slot receiver. When I watched McCaffrey compete in the U.S. Army All-American Bowl, I saw a player who can be an extremely physical receiver or running back, as McCaffrey consistently pushed piles backward when lined up at halfback. McCaffrey is also a legacy student, as his father Ed McCaffrey was a standout wide receiver and All-American for the Cardinal in the late 1980s and early 1990s. Consequently, Christian's deeper familiarity with the program may give him a slight advantage over his fellow incoming freshmen. While it can be very difficult for freshmen to initially adapt to the rigorous demands of elite football and academics, McCaffrey's familiarity with the Cardinal program may give him a leg up on these challenges, and in turn, allow him to see the field in a shorter amount of time. Finally, wide receiver has been one position in the past where Coach Shaw has been willing to play freshmen; legacy student Francis Owusu shined last season in limited time in his first year on the Farm. Thus, if McCaffrey can show some promise when lining up as a wide receiver, then I believe he will have a shot to enter the rotation of talented receivers in 2014. Vihan: I hate to go all lawyer on Michael and David, but the prompt asked, "Which of the freshmen is primed to make the biggest impact," not necessarily who is most likely to start right away. Looking at the long-term landscape of the Stanford football program, I think (though it's way, way too early to say) that incoming quarterback Keller Chryst will be in position to make the biggest impact out of the 2014 recruiting class. Playing at the most important position in football, Chryst will ultimately look to have an opportunity to make an impact with the ball in his hands on every single play — something that no other member of the 2014 recruiting class can really do. With Kevin Hogan entering his penultimate year of eligibility, Chryst, one of the top-rated quarterback prospects in the country, will have the chance to take the reins of the Stanford offense early in his career. Once he arrives on campus after crossing the street from Palo Alto High School, Chryst could also challenge Stanford's other quarterbacks in practice and run a strong scout team, which would provide an immediate impact for the program. As the top-rated quarterback prospect to come to the Farm since Andrew Luck with arm strength that has already been described as legendary, Chryst could very well become Stanford's quarterback of the future and make a serious impact on the program. Michael Peterson, David Cohn and Vihan Lakshman were all part of The Daily's legendary 2013 recruiting class and all made immediate impacts with the organization from the starts of their careers.

Lawmakers have until the new Congress convenes to pass any compromise, and even the calendar mattered. Democrats said they had been told House Republicans might reject a deal until after Jan. 1, to avoid a vote to raise taxes before they had technically gone up and then vote to cut taxes after they had risen.Nor was any taxpayer likely to feel any adverse impact if legislation is signed and passed into law in the first two or three days of 2013 instead of the final hours of 2012. Gone was the talk of a grand bargain of spending cuts and additional tax revenue in which the two parties would agree to slash deficits by trillions of dollars over a decade. Now negotiators had a more cramped goal of preventing additional damage to the economy in the form of higher taxes across the board -- with some families facing increases measured in the thousands of dollars -- as well as cuts aimed at the Pentagon and hundreds of domestic programs. Republicans said they were willing to bow to Obama's call for higher taxes on the wealthy as part of a deal to prevent them from rising on those less well-off. Democrats said Obama was sticking to his campaign call for tax increases above $250,000 in annual income, even though he said in recent negotiations he said he could accept $400,000. There was no evidence of agreement even at the higher level. There were indications from Republicans that estate taxes might hold more significance for them than the possibility of higher rates on income. One senior Republican, Sen. Jon Kyl of Arizona, said late Friday he was "totally dead set" against Obama's estate tax proposal, and as if to reinforce the point, Blunt mentioned the issue before any other in his broadcast remarks. "Small businesses and farm families don't know how to deal with the unfair death tax, a tax that the president and congressional leaders have threatened to expand to include even more family farms and even more small businesses," he said.

Ratings for Dr. Loretta B. Chou
I'm 28 and I will have pain for rest of my life because of a bunion surgery done by this stupid doctor. Don't step a foot near her. She doean't know ANYTHING. You never get a straight answer from her. She did a horrible job for my surgery. I trusted her reviews on stanford website. But after surgery I realized that stanford send you surveys and they are the ones who put the reviews there!!! I'm 28 and I'll have pain for rest of my life and I can't even sue her. Because legal firms don't go after these cases.
I will never recommend going to Dr Chou. She is HORRRRRIBLE !!! She rushes to judgement without taking the time to listen to the patient. For my Lisfranc plus multiple fractures of both feet (surgery done out of state) she seemed the least bit interested in following up. She referred me to another doctor out of the Stanford network. When the other Dr's nurse called to confirm my appt she said Dr Chou referred me to them for back problems. I have no back problems at all !!! I had read severe reviews about how bad Dr Chou is so I had not opted for her by choice. When we moved to the bay area I went to Dr Kenneth Hunt who is an amazing Doctor. Unfortunately he moved to Colorado to a higher position. So I ended up being transferred to this nightmare of a doc Dr Chou. Absolutely be sure to AVOID DR Loretta Chou.
Horrible Experience! You will never get straight answer to any question you ask. you will be left confused.
Dr. Chou is amazing. She made a perfect surgery for my ex-wife. People said she wouldn't walk again due to multiple torn meta tarsals, but she is running now. Thank you Dr. Chou!
I have the highest regard for Dr. Chou. Recovery from a procedure like mine normally takes nine to twelve months, but I was back to full mobility after only six months. The scars from my surgery are nearly invisible Dr. Chou is extraordinarily attentive, very professional and highly skilled. I have already recommended her to several other people with vairious foot/ankle issues.
Dr. Chou was the first doctor/surgeon to actually take my chronic ankle pain seriously after 5 years of severe pain. As a college athlete it got to a point where I couldn't continue competing, and had to practically beg the sports doctor for xrays/MRIs. I had a stage 4 Osteochondral Defect in my right ankle and a bone growth in the left, and Dr. Chou immediately recommended surgery, she didn't blow me off or ignore the injury. She was extremely professional, kind, and caring. Her bedside manner was really wonderful. I travelled from Hawaii for her to operate on me and will do so again, I wouldn't want anyone other than Chou. Extremely impressive surgeon. Highly recommended.
Dr. Chou is TOP-NOTCH. Anyone who says otherwise doesn't know what they're talking about. She is AMAZING. I broke 4 metatarsals and had been seeing the Orthopaedic Surgeon who was on call that night at my local ER, who was a total crock and let's just leave it at that. So I decided to seek a second opinion, found Dr. Chou, and have never looked back. Honestly, I can't praise her enough. I never write reviews, and yet felt compelled to spread the word about Dr. Chou. Yes, she moves quickly and doesn't ask about your kid's art projects or whatever. But give me a break, you're looking for a DOCTOR who will FIX YOUR PROBLEM right?
I was charged $46 for "toe protectors" that I did not want or ask for. Dr. Chou should have prepared for a career in retail if she wanted to make money from products. She was rushed when I saw her, (I waited 1 hr. 15 minutes, offered no solutions to my painful problem feet, and then came the bill for something that looks as though it cost 50 cents to produce and that was handed to me by the doctor as though it was something she wanted me to consider trying. This is Stanford medical care???
Dr. Chou was very cordial and took time to explain my injury (lisfranc fracture) to me. She offered information about the surgery, recovery time and potential problems. I had read that she had no bedside manner and I fully disagree. I went to her seeking a 2nd opinion and have since decided to have her perform my surgery. The staff at Stanford was efficient and was able to take me before my pointed time.
She was the 4th doctor I had seen and was the ONLY doctor that requested an MRI of my heel/foot. It had been giving me pain to the point of major limping for over 1 1/2 yrs. All I have heard from other doctors was to rest it, take some meds and give it time. it was getting worse. My orthopedic doctor said my last chance was Dr. Chou and I didn't care to drive the 1 hr to see her. She gave me the most direct,informed answer as to what was my problem and how to fix it. I had Haglunds Deformity & Achilles Tendon Repair done. Yes, she is straight to the point and not the, "hey, hows it ogin, nice weather" type of doctor, but I wasn't looking for small talk. I wanted a solution. If you have the chance to see her, I highly recommend you do. I'm in my 3rd week of recovery and the pain was tolerable and I stopped taking the hard-core meds within 4 days of surgery. Advil or tylenol does the trick. her staff is very friendly & the clinic there is very clean and tidy.

which the flowers which covered the frame were attached by picks thrust into the moss, and that it was usual to make a foundation of letters cut on or from a sheet of cardboard, the face of which was covered with flowers. After the use of wooden frames as a foundation for floral decorations, which were secured to the moss by picks, and after the use of cardboard letters for analogous purposes, there was no invention in securing flowers to a foundation piece so formed as to create the desired letter or figure, although provided with small holes, through which the wooden picks are inserted to fasten the letter to the entire ;floral ornament. The patentee added holes in the back of the wooden foundation to the pre-existing devices. We do not perceive, in the wooden letters with the holes, notwithstanding its popularity, a patentable improvement upon the wooden cross or wreath. This result obviates the necessity of examining the question of infringement. The decree of the circuit court is reversed, with costs, and the case is remanded to that court, with instructions to dismiss the bill, with costs of the circuit court.
SIXTEEN HUNDRED TONS OF NITRATE OF SODA v. McLEOD. (Circuit Court of Appeals, Ninth Circult. No. 117. April 2, 1894.)
A charter party which makes the charterer liable for demurrage only when caused by his default does not relieve him of liability for delay caused by his omission to perform his covenants, even though he is not guilty of negligence. A charter party provided for demurrage for detention of the vessel by default of the charterer excepting detentions caused by political occur· rences. Held, that political occurrences which prevented the charterer from procuring a cargo, but did not prevent him from loading any cargo he might procure, did not relieve him from liability for demurrage.

The vessel arrived in due course at Antofagasta, in Chili, where she discharged her cargo of lumber,and received her instructions from her charterers to proceed to Caleta Buena in Chili, to take a -cargo of nitrate of soda. She arrived at Caleta Buena on February 9, 1891. Mter her departure from Antofagasta, and while on her way to Caleta:Buena, civil war broke out in .Chili between the faction known as the Balmacedists, who supported the presi· dent, and those known as the Congressionalists, consisting of the 'Congress of Chili and its adherents; each faction claiming to be the lawful government of the country. The CongressIonal party were in when the Dunstaffnaage arrived at that possession of Caleta port, and the Balmacedists. bad no representative there. The presi· dent and his party were at that time recognized by the United States and other countries as the government of Chili, and they continued so to be recognized until September 7, 1891, when the Congressional party, having been victorious in the contest, was recognized. By the laws of Chili in force at the time the Dunstaffnaage lay at Caleta Buena, the sellers of cargoes of nitrate of soda were required to pay the government, at the point of shipment, an export duty on such -cargoes. The charterers of the vessel had purchased in due time a cargo of nitrate of soda for shipment under the charter party, but were unable to obtain a delivery of the same from the sellers after the arrival of the vessel, for the reason, as stated in the stipulation -of the parties to this suit, that "no sellers of nitrate would consent to deliver the same for shipment during such time as the Balmaceda party was unrepresented at Caleta Buena, on the ground that a pay. ment to the Congressional party would not be a liquidation of such duty, a defense to them as against any claim which might there;after be made therefor by the Balmaceda party, or a defense against any charge that might thereafter be made against them by said Balmaceda party for the violation of said revenue law." The vessel
was subsequently loaded with the cargo of nitrate at the port where she lay, but a delay of 28 days occurred, for which the owners claimed demurrage under the terms of the charter party. On her arrival in due course at San Francisco, this suit to recover demurrage was instituted. A decree was entered for the libelant in the district court, and the charterers, the owners of the cargo, take this appeal therefrom. There are two principal questions presented upon the appeal, the decision of both of which must depend upon the construction to be given to certain provisions of the charter party: (1) Was the delay in loading occasioned by the "default" of the charterers? (2) Was the delay excused by virtue of the last clause of the charter party, whereby exception is made in the case of nonperformance of the covenants by reason of "political occurrences," etc.? The provision for demurrage is one of the stipulations usually found in the contract. In the absence of a clause limiting the liability of the charterers to cases where the detention shall occur from the fault or default of the charterers, or from some accident or cause specifically named, the obligation to pay demurrage is an absolute one, and its meaning is that, if the ship is detained over the stipulated days, the charterer shall pay the stipulated sum for such time over and above the lay days as the ship is in such condition that she cannot be handed back for the owner. In Randall v. Lynch, 2 Camp. 352, where the detention was caused by the crowded state of the docks, but the charterer was, nevertheless, held liable, Lord Ellenborough, in delivering the opinion of the court, said: ''I am of the opinion that the person who hires a vessel detains her if, at the end of the stipulated time, he does not restore her to the owner." In Barret v. Dutton, 4 Camp. 333, the detention occurred from a severe frost, which froze the river, and rendered loading impossible. The vessel, moreover, owing to the same reason, could not have sailed if she had been loaded in the stipulated time. The court, nevertheless, held the charterer liable for demurrage. But, in this case, there is inserted in the demurrage clause a limitation of the liability of the charterers for delay in loading or discharging. It is stipulated that they shall be answerable only for detention which may result from their default. To what extent does this provision modify their obligation? There is in the use of the word "default" no necessary imputation of negligence. As used in such an instrument, it can mean only the nonperformance of contract duty,-a failure upon the part of one of the contracting parties to do that which he had contracted to do. The most that can be claimed for its effect is that it excludes liability of the charterers for delay in loading or discharging, if the delay result from a sudden or unforeseen interruption or prevention of the act itself of loading or discharging, not occurring through the connivance or fault of the charterers. The courts have so construed such limitation in other contracts. In Thacher v. Gaslight Co., 2 Low. 361,1 the parties had contracted for quick dispatch in discharging a cargo of coal, and,
· Fed. Cas. No. 13,850.
vol. 61. '
for every day's detention 'by default of the party of the second parl, demtirrage at $50 per day. The vessel arrived, and was delayed 10 days before she could get a berth at the charterers' wharf. There was evidence that the charterers had suitable accommodations for receiving cargoes of coal which were sufficient for ordinary occasions, and that they endeavored to charter vessels to arrive at such times· as not to interfere with each other, and that they had done so at this time, but that, contrary to their expectation, other vessels arrived in port just before the libelant's schooner. The court said: .
"The proviso intends to exonerate the charterers from delay occasioned by superior force acting directly upon the discharge of the cargo, and not from the indirect action of such force, which, by its operation upon other vessels, has caused a crowded state of the docks. If the respondents do not furnish the wharf room, or any other means or appliances which they are to supply, it is not enough for them to prove that they have taken reasonable measures. to procure them. In short, the default does not mean negligence, but a failure of contract on their part, unless It is caused by a direct and unavoidl1ble vis major, or something like it."
In Davis v. Wallace, 3 Cliff. 123,2 it had been agreed that the vessel should have quick dispatch in discharging, and, incase of detention, the charterers were to pay demurrage, provided tl1e detention should happen by their default. After reaching the wharf designated as the place of discharge, the vessel was detained three days by reason of the berth being occupied by another vessel. It was held that the libelant was entitled to demurrage. Clifford, J., in delivering the opinion of the court, said that the StIpulation for quick dispatch excluded all delay save the time employed in discharging, except what was occasioned by natural causes beyond the control of the parties so contracting. The appellants rely upon the language of Mr. Chief Justice Waite, in Davis v. Pendergast, 16 Blatchf. 565, Fed. Cas. No. 3,647, where, in referring to the limitation of liability to delays resulting from the default of the charterer, it was said:
"The respondent in effect agreed that no more than forty-five running days should be occupied in loading or discharging the cargo, unless it was occasioned by some unusual and extraordinary interruption, that could not have been anticipated when the contract was made."
There is in the decision no application of the words so used to the facts in that case, and there is no definition of the nature of the unusual and extraordinary interruption not anticipated by the contracting parties, which, in the mind of the court, would have excused the charterers. As a matter of fact, there was no such interruption claimed or proven in that case. The decision actually made was that the charterers were liable for delays which occurred through the intervention of "Sundays and holidays, customhouse and port regulations, and lack of wharfage and lighterage i" that those were risks assumed by the charterers, and that detention by reason thereof placed them in default. But the language of the opinion in that case· is inapplicable to the facts disclosed in the
Fed. Cas. No. 3,657.
case at bar. There was no unusual or extraordinary interruption in the loading of the Dunstaffnaage. There was no interruptbn or interference therewith at all. There was no interposition of force between the cargo and the vessel. There was no closing of docks or seizure of property. The difficulty was of an entirely different nature. It arose from the fact that the charterers had no cargo to load. In entering into the charter party, the shipowner placed his vessel at the disposal of the charterers for the stipulated time and voyage. He had the right to rely upon the existence of a cargo ready for shipment as soon as the vessel should arrive at Caleta Buena. The failure to provide that cargo was the default of the charterers. When the master of the vessel demanded the cargo, the charterers had none. Their cargo had been contracted for, but had not been delivered to them. They could not obtain possession of it. But there was no interference upon the part of the Chilian government, or upon the part of any armed force, to prevent their obtaining possession of the cargo, or handling or moving the same, or placing it within reach of the vessel's tackle. In the case of Dow v. Hare, Fed. Cas. No. 4,037a, an unreported decision of Judge Hoffman in the district court for the northern district of California, and affirmed on appeal to the circuit court, the charterer had chartered the ship to carry a cargo of coal to Oonalaska, and there deliver the same on board the United States steamer Saranac. When the chartered vessel arrived with her cargo at the designated port, the Saranac was not in port. She had been wrecked and lost at sea. The vessel, after waiting during her lay days and for several days thereafter, discharged her cargo on the wharf, and brought suit for demurrage. It was urged in defense of the action that the charterers were not liable, inasmuch as the detention was not due to their "default." In delivering the ()pinion, the court said:
"It was as much the part of the contract that the shipper should provide a consignee to receive the goods at the place of destination as that the carrier should transport and deliver them. If, on the arrival of the vessel, the consignee cannot be found after diligent inquiry by the master, the delay so occasioned ought in justice to be deemed to have been caused by default of the s,bipper or his agents. · · · By the bill of lading, the Saranac was the consignee to whom the coal was to be delivered. The consequence of her unpunctuality ought rather to be borne by the party whose agent she was, and who had particularly stipulated that she would be ready to receive the whole cargo within ten days after the ship arrived, rather than. upon the shipowner, who was a stranger to the contract."
But it is contended in the second place that, while there may have been no interference with the act of loading, the delay is nevertheless excused by virtue of the last clause of the charter party, whereby the performance of all the charterers' covenants, including the covenant to "furnish and provide a cargo" is excused if prevented by "political occurrences," etc., and that, if the charterers are excused from furnishing a cllrgo, they are likewise excused for delay in loading, since the ruga must be furnished before it can be loaded. It is sufficient to say in answer to this argument that no political

occurrence is shown in this case which would serve to release the charterers from the performance of any of their covenants. The substance_and effect of the covenant· to provide and furnish a cargo was that the charterers would deliver a cargo within reach of the ship's .tackle, for the purpose of loading. did not covenant to purchase or acquire a cargo. With the procurement of the cargo, the shipowner had no concern. The charterers were to provide a cargo, and the owner was to provide a ship. In such a case the charterer may be presumed to have his cargo under control. If a political occurrence should prevent him from delivering a cargo or· moving a cargo, the excuse contemplated in the charter party would exist; but when the intervention of the political occ11rrence is carried further back, and is made to apply to the procurement of a cargo in the market, the contingency is too remote to have been contemplated by the parties, unless the language of the charter party so expresses by clear and unmistakable terms. In this case the inability of the charterers to furnish a cargo arose from the. refusal of all sellers of nitrate of soda to deliver cargoes of that article during the continuance of the then existing political situation. It is immaterial to this case whether such refusal was inspired by the fear of the sellers that they might subsequently be required to pay a secoud duty to the Balmacedan government, or by the fear that they might be dealt with as for acts treasonable to that government. Their reasons, whatever they were, were sufficient to cause an absolute refusal upon their part to deliver such cargoes. Political occurrences, it is true, had caused their refusal, but the political occurrences opposed no obstacle to their free dispoElition of their property, or to their handling or transporting the same by land or by water. Political occurrences had indirectly closed the nitrate of soda market at Caleta Buena, but the owners of that commodity were free to act concerning the same, and their refusal to sell and deliver was purely voluntary. The case is in no material feature different from the cases of The India, 1 C. C. A. 174, 49 Fed. 76, and Sorensen v. Keyser, 2 C. C. A. 650, 52 Fed. 163. In those cases, the contracts were for cargoes of saw logs, and the terms of the contracts required delivery alongside the vessels within a stipulated time, but excepted, in the computation of lay days at the port of loading, the time lost, if any, by J.1eason of drought. The charterers were unable, on account of the low stage of water in the interior streams, occasioned by drought, to procure a cargo for delivery at the port. The court held that fact to be no defense to the actions for demurrage, that the inability to procure cargoes was not within the exception, and that the exception "by reason of drought" referred only to a failure to deliver alongside for loading. In Grant v. Coverdale, L. R. 9 App. Cas. 470, where the agreement was to load within a specified time, "frosts, etc., and other unavoidable accidents preventing th loading excepted," the ' charterer was held liable for demurrage, although frosts prevented him from bringing the cargo alongside the ship. The agreement in that case referred to delay in loading only,' but the reasoning
tained in the decision is applicable to the case at bar. bourne said:
Lord Sel-
"It would appear to me to be unreasonable to suppose, unless the words make it perfectly clear, that the shipowner has contracted that his ship may be detained for an unlimited time on account of impediments, whatever their nature may be, tothose things with which he has nothing whatever to do, which precede altogether the operation of loading, which are no part whatever of it, but belong to that which is exclusively the charterer's business. * * * If, therefore, you are to carry back the loading to anything necessary to be done by the charterer in order to have the cargo ready to be loaded, no human being can tell where you are to stop."
The case of Hudson v. Ede, L. R. 2 Q. B. 566, cited by the appellant, was a case where, by the terms of the charter party, the vessel was to proceed to the port of Sulinah, and there load a complete cargo of grain, the cargo to be brought alongside the ship at the port of loading, at the charterer's expense and risk, 30 days to be allowed for loading and unloading, a demurrage over and above laying days, at six pounds a day, "detention by ice and quarantine not to be reckoned as lay days." It appeared that all grain shipped at Sulinah was kept at points higher up the Danube, and was brought by lighters down the river, and unloaded into ships at Sulinah. The ship being ready to load, notice was given the charterer, but the river immediately above Sulinah became frozen up, and so remained for two months. The charterer was unable to bring his cargo down the river, and he was held not liable for demurrage. But that was not a case of failure to provide a cargo. It was the decision of the court that since, from the circumstances and the custom of the port, the cargo had to be brought down the ri ver after the arrival of the ship, detention by ice must be construed to extend to detention by ice of the lighters coming down the river to load the ship, and that the lighters were as much prevented going to the ship and loading the same by reason of ice in the river as they would have been by ice obstructing their movement in the port of Sulinah itself. It follows from these views that the decree must be affirmed, with costs to the appellee. ROSS, District Judge (dissenting). I am unable to agree to the judgment in this case. The gist of the contract between the parties was that Grace & Co. were to provide furnish the ship, within reach of her tackle, at the port of Caleta Buena, a full cargo of nitrate of soda in bags, which the ship should there receive, and transport direct to San Francisco, and there deliver, for a certain "Stipulated sum per ton of 2,240 pounds; the charterers to be allowed for the loading of the ship 30 working lay days, to commence 24 hours after her inward cargo and unnecessary ballast should be finally discharged, and the receipt by them of written notice to that effect from her captain. The charter party further provided that for each and every day's detention by default of the charters or their .agents they should pay to the ship demurrage at the rate of four pence sterling per ton per day, but should the ship be detained by the master beyond the time specified, demurrage should be paid
vol. 61.
to the charterers at the same rate and in the same manner; and it concluded with this provision:
"The act of God, enemies, political occurrences, fire, and accidents beyond charterers' control, as well as the dangers of the seas and navigation, always excepted."
This exceptive clause manifestly applies to each and every covenant of the charter pany,-to those on the part of the charterers to procure, furnish, and load the cargo, as well as to that on the part of the ship to transport it. If an act of God or of enemies, or political occurrences, or fire, or an accident beyond the charterers' control, or. C)fnavigation, cause the failure of either party to comply with either or all of the terms of the contract, such failure must be held excused, for the reason that such is the agreement the parties made. The· question then is, did such political occurrences intervene between the making of the charter party and the time the ship was ready to enter upon its performance as to exonerate the charterers from liability for the detention to which the ship was subjected? It is conceded that, after the making of the charter party, the charterers purchased, from a certain company at Caleta Buena, the contemplated cargo of nitrate in time for shipment in accordance with the terms of the contract. But, before the time for shipment arrived, what was practically a civil war broke out in Chili between two factions, one of which was called the Balmaceda party and the other the Congressional party, and each of which claimed to represent the legitimate government of the country. Th.at war was in progress when the ship got ready to receive the cargo. The port of Caleta Buena was then in the possession of the Congressional party, and there was no representative of the Ba,lmaceda party there. By a law of Chili then in force, there was payable by the sellers on all cargoes of nitrate sold for shipment from Chilian ports an export duty of $1.50, Chilian money, per 100 Spanish pounds, which duty was payable to the government of Chili at its customhouse at the port of shipment. It is further stipulated by the parties that the only reason why the cargo was not shipped within the time required by the charter party was "that no sellers of. nitrate would consent to deliver the same for shipment du'ring such time as the Balmaceda party was unrepresented at Caleta Buena, on the ground that a payment of the export duty to the Congressional party would not be a liquidation of such duty and a defense to them as against any claim which might thereafter be made therefor by the Balmaceda party, or a defense against any charge that might thereafter be made. against them by said Balmaceda party for the violation of said revenue law." It is not important, I think, whether or not the fears of the nitrate sellers were well founded, although it is not unreasonable to suppose, in view of the history of that contest, that payment by a seller of nitrate of the duty imposed by the Chilian law upon its exportation, to the Congressionalists, thereby furnishing them in part with the sinews of the war they were waging against the party headed by tIle then president of the republic (Balmaceda), might, in the
event the latter had been successful in the contest, have l)een visited with consequences far more serious than the collection of the duties over again. The agreed fact remains that none would consent to deliver any nitrate for shipment during the time here in question, and that such refusal was caused by the then prevailing political occurrences. For this reason the charterers were unable to procure or furnish the cargo for the ship during the time in question, and, as a necessary consequence, unable to load it within that period. The real cause of this failure on their part was the political occurrences-the political contest then being waged between the contending factions in Chili-against liability for which by either the parties to the charter party chose to stipulate. I think the cases of The Village Belle, 2 Asp. 230, Hudson v. Ede, L. R. 2 Q. B. 566, and Fenwick v. Schmalz, L. R. 3 C. P. 313, give support to this view, and that the cases of Grant v. Coverdale, L. R. 9 App. Cas. 470, The India, 1 C. C. A. 174, 49 Fed. 76, and Sorensen v. Keyser, 2 C. C. A. 650, 52 Fed. 164, are not against it. In Grant v. Coverdale, the clause of exception applied only to the failure to load. In The India and in Sorensen v. Keyser, the exception ''by reason of drought" the court held referred only to a failure to deliver the logs alongside the vessel for loading. But in the case at bar the parties themselves so placed the exception clause in the charter party as to make it apply to every covenant thereof.

Staring Into The Abyss: Some Thoughts
Last week Benjamin Otte shared some thoughts about GNOME that were pretty stark. It gathered some steam and hit Slashdot and this all happened the week GUADEC was taking place in A Coruña. I wasn't at GUADEC but I can imagine there was some fervent discussion about the blog entry.
The gist of Benjamin's blog was that people are leaving GNOME, that the project is understaffed, and arguably the reason for this is that GNOME has lost its direction and Red Hat have overtaken the project as the primary contributor-base. Of course I am summarizing, but check out the original post if you feel I am not representing Benjamin's views fairly.
I wanted to share a few thoughts.

Elkader bartender charged with threatening teenager during alcohol check
Finley suspected the girl was conducting a "sting"
The manager of an Elkader tavern is charged with threatening and trying to hold captive a teenager working with sheriff's deputies on an alcohol compliance check.
Timothy Finley, 33, threatened the volunteer with a pipe and ordered her to go into the basement of Fennelly's Irish Pub after she tried to buy a six pack of beer Friday, according to Clayton County Chief Deputy Ryan Johnson.
Finley, who was tending bar, checked the youth's identification, then told her he suspected she was conducting an alcohol compliance "sting," Johnson said. He told the volunteer to go into the bar's basement "because he was going to cause her great physical harm."
When the youth, who wasn't identified, refused to go into the basement Finley tried to detain her, calling her names and threatening her several times, according to Johnson. The volunteer was eventually able to leave the bar and tell the deputy she'd been working with of Finley's threats.
Finley was arrested on suspicion of second-degree harassment, false imprisonment, and kidnapping. Harassment and false imprisonment are serious misdemeanors with a maximum sentence of one year, and kidnapping is a Class C felony punishable by up to 10 years in prison and a $10,000 fine.
The state Alcoholic Beverages Division was also informed of the incident.
Finley has been released from the county jail.

"I wanted to create a musical hybrid," says Day. "I've drawn from the Great American Songbook quite a bit in the past, but I really wanted to infuse this album with a more contemporary aesthetic, and also draw on some influences from the early '60s, like Burt Bacharach, Roy Orbison and Dusty Springfield. I wanted to create a sound that could stand alone and not be easily put into one category, but at the same time appeal to a broad range of listeners."Read more

The Red Sox have checked in on veteran starter Tim Hudson, and several other teams have, too, but while Boston is said to be big admirers of Hudson, it's still a little hard to imagine the loyal Hudson leaving the Braves.
Hudson is drawing significant interest from around the league (MLB.com reported the Indians and Royals, too), but Boston's interest is intriguing, and maybe even to Hudson, who just saw them win the World Series. One person familiar with the Red Sox's thinking said, 'They really want him."
Of course, Boston is already very well-stocked with starting pitching, having just won with their six guys manning five spots. They'd have to do something to make room for Hudson if they could make a deal with him.

Less than one week ago, Assemblywoman Cleopatra Tucker (D- Obviously.) introduced a bill that would require all bicycles in the state to be registered with the Motor Vehicles Commission and to be fitted with license plates. This registration would carry a fee of $10 per bike every two years, and fines for not registering would be as high as $100. The state, of course, would be responsible for keeping track of an entire database of bikes, and would also have to create the license plates to distribute to riders. Now, that bill is dead, and hipsters around the state could not be happier. Did the Assmeblywoman really believe that a counter culture that refuses to even put brakes on their bikes would add license plates?
Before I get into the glaring issues with this flawed idea, I need to make a slight digression. Is this what the democrats meant when they said we need to not "stay the course" with reforming New Jersey? Instead of passing legislation that actually matters to taxpayers who are increasingly being forced out of the state from ever rising taxes, the democrats think that time should be spent creating new responsibilities and burdens for government and those very taxpayers. Instead of making tough decisions to preserve a pension system for workers of the future or to ensure a great education for our children, the democrats want to make some poor bill drafter in the Office of Legislative Services write a bill that probably gave everyone in that office a good laugh. We are in the middle of a recession and a budget crisis, and this is the best they can do. Unbelievable.
Anyway, Tucker made a statement today that she never meant to impose new costs or burdens on residents, but that she was trying to protect senior citizens from not being able to identify and sue bike riders who run them down on the street. So let me get this straight. The elderly are under attack by bikers in Newark. They are being run over and can find no recourse. So somehow, the best solution is a new registration, a new government program, and a new reason to have to stand in line at the MVC? I don't think so.
Look, lets think about this logically, put ourselves in the position of one of these unfortunate victims. If old and walking down the street, and you are suddenly hit by a bicycle. Hit so hard that you are injured enough to warrant wanting to sue the rider. Hit so hard that you are probably on the ground. What are the chances that this person who hit you so hard was going slow enough that you'd be able read a tiny little bike sized license plate and be able to identify the bike or the rider? If you have time to see and retain any of that during the accident, its probably because the person was nice enough to stop and make sure that you are ok, and call and ambulance, and take responsibility for his negligence.
Additionally, the burden this could place on taxpayers (not even just the hipster ones), while relatively small, is just another unnecessary annoyance coming directly from Trenton. Every two years, a family of five with five bikes would owe $50 just for the right to ride their bikes within our borders. If they didn't register them, they could pay up to $500. I understand that the government is hard up for cash, but is this the way the democrats want to fix it? By finding new ways to gouge taxpayers, during a recession when nearly 10% of New Jerseyans are out of work? I understand that $50 really is not exactly breaking the bank, but to some families in our state that puts food on the table or pays for them to get to work or school. The unintended consequences are far greater than any possible benefit that could ever come from this backwards legislation. Thankfully, the bill will not become a law, at least not right now.Click here for reuse options!

Life's call comes from call of ducks
Dec. 2, 2012 at 6:02 a.m.
What does a fishing and hunting lodge proprietor and guide do when duck season closes in Texas and he finally takes a little time off from the daylight for the dark business of entertaining outdoorsmen? He calls some of his dearest friends across the border and scores a room and a pit blind in the famed Cameron Parish marsh.
I have told people on several occasions that I don't go to Hackberry Rod and Gun to catch fish or kill ducks - that's a bonus - the Cajun cuisine is the lure that drags me east down I-10.
A limit of green-winged teal and gadwalls is always a good day, but the bowl of gumbo waiting back at the lodge is better. Limits of tackle-busting redfish and just as many speckled trout to boot as the sun goes down in West Cove is a pretty good way to spend an afternoon, but the shrimp cocktail, followed by pot-roasted pintail, dirty rice, sweet potatoes with pecans and bourbon-iced bread pudding is a better way to finish the day.
I know, this is not the food section; I admit I have a problem limiting proportions of great food. Nevertheless, my wife disagrees, confessing my problem lies not in dining but in ducks.
I learned to hunt ducks in the Chambers County marsh, once a famed duck haven rivaling any piece of waterfowling wetland in the country. Now, most of my winter morning are spent on the high ground of the coastal prairies in Wharton and Matagorda counties. Wing-shooting can be world-class here as well, but it just isn't the marsh. Call me crazy, but the scent of methane from an eroding marsh pond has the callings of home, much like the whiff of my mom's chicken fried steak.
Each of the three mornings I spent in Louisiana this week varied due to the clash of cold and humid air coupled with a bright fire ball of a moon. Ducks moved early, before legal shooting time really, then sat for a couple of hours before feeling the need to fly and feed around mid-morning.
The shooting wasn't fast, but it wasn't for lack of ducks. Wild game move on the moon, the tides, the weather changes, a falling barometer, things not even we humans can control. We managed to bag our limit, but it took a bit longer than previous trips. Again, weather swings, lunar phases and the last week of an already productive first split of the Louisiana duck season were the culprits.
Fast shoots are fine. We all like to boast about those "30 ducks in 30 minutes" burn-downs; and, I have had too many to remember at HR&G. However, when you are tucked in the cozy confines of a perfectly brushed pit blind, you want to savor the sunrise and the fellowship of dear friends. It's more enjoyable in this stage of my hunting prowess to decoy a trio of grey ducks then laugh and talk about how cool it was to watch them lock up on high when they hear a five-note hail call.
That scene has played out thousands of times in a duck blind, but we still get giddy as if it were the first gads we had ever fooled.
A half-hour later, still laughing about the inexplicable miss on the left side, the wind from two dozen greenwings blow our hats off as conversations quickly conclude and fingers fumble for the shotgun.
Lord willing there will be many more mornings like this.

Alt rock band Everclear will be the headliner at West Side Main Street's 10th annual OktoberWest event in Charleston on Oct. 11.
The band, which produced songs like "Everything to Everyone" (1997), "Father of Mine" (1998) and "Wonderful" (2000), will be preceded by Nashville, Tenn., based Gage, which is made up of Charleston natives, and local band The Company Stores.
West Side Main Street Director Stephanie Johnson said she was excited about this year's OktoberWest and snagging Everclear for the event was "over the top" for her organization.
The lineup was announced at a press conference Wednesday afternoon.
Besides the music, OktoberWest will also feature pumpkin painting, beer pong, cornhole and plenty of craft beer.
Available brews will be from Charleston Brewing, North End Tavern in Parkersburg, Mountain State Brewing in Thomas and Bridge Brew Works in Fayetteville. Beers distributed by the local Capitol Beverage Co. will also be available.
Food vendors will be West Side businesses Dem 2 Brothers and a Grill, The Smokehouse, The Grill, Cheerful Heart Catering and Mi Cocina de Amor – the site of Wednesday's press conference.
Johnson said the event has helped fund projects like the restoration of the Fountain Hobby sign, the artwork in the windows of the Staats Hospital building, an art project for the Lowman's Drug Store building and the "little free library."
"We're striving for big goals and I think they're definitely accomplishable," Johnson said.
Tickets for adults to OktoberWest are $30 in advance or $35 at the door. The price of the ticket includes food, drinks and entertainment.
Tickets for those 12 and under are $10.
The event will be located between Washington Street and Pennsylvania Avenue on the West Side from 4 p.m. to 9 p.m.
For more information about how to purchase advance tickets, call West Side Main Street at 304-720-3161.

Mesa State trustees OK push west to Seventh Street
Mesa State College is looking to add to its ever-expanding campus.
The college's board of trustees voted Tuesday to approve a 25-year plan to acquire 214 residential lots, 21 commercial properties and two churches between Cannell Avenue and Seventh Street and North Avenue and Orchard Avenue.
No specific buildings have been planned for the project area, but athletic facilities tentatively would continue to be added on the north side of campus as it moves west, with classroom buildings and residence halls located in the rest of campus. The college plans to gradually move west in clumps between now and 2031, based on what property sells first.
The college would accept an annual fund transfer from the Mesa State College Real Estate Foundation to purchase and demolish properties. The transfer this year for a separate acquisition project for properties between Cannell Avenue and College Place came to $1.8 million.
The college could also pay for the project, called the West Expansion Property Acquisition Project, with donations, state funding and rent money from properties acquired by the college and left standing for a few years before enough surrounding properties are acquired by the college to justify demolition, according to Derek Wagner, Mesa State director of strategic initiatives.
"Our hope with this plan is to go after properties aggressively as they become available," Wagner said.
Wagner said his phone has been ringing with numerous calls from interested sellers in the area since the college hosted a neighborhood meeting about the project earlier this month.
Ben Hill, a partner at real estate firm Hill & Homes at 1204 N. Seventh St., said Wednesday he had not heard Mesa State was interested in moving west, but that he's interested in working with the college.
"As far as I'm concerned, come on down here," he said. "We're ready to make a deal."
Hill also owns properties in the project area at 1226 and 1236 N. Seventh St., home to Davis Photography and MCC Drug & Alcohol Screening, as well as a duplex at 730 Glenwood Ave. He said he hasn't been seeking buyers but is willing to hear what the college has to offer.
Ron Church, manager of CARQUEST Auto Parts, 874 North Ave., said he also would like the college to buy his lot so he can move to a larger location. The auto parts store has a lease for the property, which is owned by Westwood Properties Inc. in Palisade. Westwood did not return a call for comment Wednesday.
Hill said he's interested in doing business because he would be selling a business location. But he could see how homeowners in the area may not be so keen to sell.
The college is still struggling to buy a few homes between Cannell Avenue and the now-nonexistent College Place, from North Avenue to Mesa Avenue, as part of a project initiated in 2004, the House Demolition and Ground Recovery Project. The project was expected to last 15 years, but all but five homes have sold in less than half that time frame, prompting the college to initiate another property acquisition phase.
The homes are surrounded by school property, including parking lots and residence halls. Only two sit side by side, at 1220 and 1240 Cannell Ave. The homes are owned by Clark and Jeanne Carroll, according to Mesa County Assessor's office records, and Clark's mother, Phyllis. A woman at 1220 Cannell Ave. responded "no comment" when asked by a reporter Wednesday whether she planned to sell to the college.
Wagner said the college will continue to pursue purchase of the five properties. He said at least one property owner may negotiate with the school. Another, he said, is asking for $100,000 above the appraised value of the home, a price the college will not pay.
"We're a nonprofit institution. We can't pay that much," Wagner said.
The college wants to expand to keep up with projected enrollment growth. But the buyer-friendly real estate market doesn't hurt the decision to move forward now, according to Mesa State Trustee Doug Price.
"The wisdom of doing this now is an important component of what we need to do. ... We can only foresee the campus growing," Price said. "I think this is an ideal time to acquire properties given the state of the economy."
Although the college won't pay exorbitant prices, Mesa State President Tim Foster said home and business owners may be enticed by the college's offer to buy because they don't have to pay real estate or closing costs when they sell to the school.
"I think it's important to get started," Foster said.

NEW YORK (Jul. 18)
The Jewish Agency in New York today released the names of twelve organizations which it has authorized to conduct fund-raising campaigns for their respective programs in Israel, during the 1963-64 campaign year. They are:
American Committee for the Weizmann Institute of Science; American Friends of the Hebrew University; American-Israel Cultural Foundation; American Red Mogen Dovid for Israel, (membership campaign only); American Technion Society; Federated Council of Israel Institutions; Hadassah; Jewish National Fund (for traditional collections); Mizrachi Women's Organization of America; National Committee for Labor Israel (Histadrut Campaign); Pioneer Women, the Women's Labor Zionist Organization of America; Women's League for Israel, Inc. (New York area only).
The list has been made public by the Jewish Agency's Committee on Control and Authorization of Campaigns which serves as a clearing-house for fund-raising activities for Israel in the United States. It was set up in 1949 under the auspices of the Jewish Agency and includes representatives of the National United Jewish Appeal, New York U.J.A., and the Council of Jewish Federations and Welfare Funds.
The Control Committee's action followed a review of the financial statements and promotional activities of the twelve organizations whose authorization was contingent upon their pledge to give priority to the United Jewish Appeal as the major source of philanthropic funds for Israel's immigration, absorption and settlement programs which today assume bigger proportions than for the past several years.
This priority on support for U.J.A. has been of paramount importance in the Committee's review of the information and plans submitted by the various agencies seeking Jewish Agency authorization. Since its inception 14 years ago, the Committee has served as a clearing house providing information and clarification with regard to charitable appeals, addressed to American Jewry on behalf of Israeli programs, either directly or through their American representatives.
Throughout the years, American Jewish organizations and individuals have looked to the Committee on Control and Authorization for guidance in dealing with these appeals. The Committee stresses that authorization of a campaign dees not imply endorsement by the Jewish Agency, which invites contributors to Israel causes to inquire at its offices in New York for information concerning any fund-raising campaigns or activities on behalf of Israel.

Parents against turning Brownsville Veterans into magnet school
Tue, 20 Sep 2011 22:54:54 GMT —
It TMs a proposal being considered by Brownsville Independent School District officials but it TMs not sitting well with parents of students at Veterans Memorial High School.
The parents are challenging a proposal that could turn the campus of Brownsville TMs newest high school into a magnet school.
A group of parents is asking Brownsville school board members to leave the school as is.
They told Action 4 News that Veterans Memorial High School was built to alleviate overcrowding and not to house a career-oriented campus.
They fear this change could affect the school TMs athletic programs and winning records.
Jesus Guzman, whose son attends the school, said the district has provided them with little information on the proposed changes leaving them in a panic.
Guzman said students have found a disciplined, and respectful niche with their peers, teachers and coaches.
He and other parents fear if the campus is changed, it could mean the end of athletics and the relocation of their children.
"There's nothing broken, Guzman said. I don TMt believe we need to fix anything. They should think about the decisions they make because the people that are going to end up losing with what they decide are our kids not them"
Brownsville ISD spokeswoman Drue Brown said one proposal is to relocate the engineering program from Porter High School and the medical program from Hanna High School to Veterans.
Another option is to turn the entire Veterans Memorial High School campus into a magnet school.
Brown said that no decisions have been made.
And informative meeting is being held at 5:30 p.m. Tuesday at the Brownsville ISD headquarters off Price Road to discuss the proposals with parents.
Brown told Action 4 News that hundreds of students are turned away from these magnet programs because of the limited space and resources available every year.
If the magnet program is approved, she said more students would benefit.

CHILLREAVER (deceased)
Chillreaver / Ice Goddess - A 2 headed white dragon & exarch of Tiamat
Chillreaver is an exarch of Tiamat. A 2-headed white dragon which acquired the Seed of Winter to help build Icehome, his lair. Icehome was a gigantic iceberg which floated in the tropical seas near the island nation of Nefelus. With the power of the Seed of Winter mixing with his demi-godlike powers granted by Tiamat, Chillreaver was able to have an ice ring form, blocking the nefelese nation from all ships. The magical wintry climate slowly crept towards the island and threatened it's very existence.
The Green Dawn fought Chillreaver in the top most level of his Icehome and defeated him in his grand chamber. They also learned that Tiamat has five exarchs, one for each of her chromatic heads; White, Green, Black, Blue, & Red.
Her white-head exarch is now dead.
