Clarence is attractive - he thinks it's important to always be well-groomed, regardless of how long he's been locked in his office for. He'll forget food but at least he'll shower and shave. When out and about Clarence is always in a suit or something appropriately formal, because he's a CEO and he needs to make a good impression. At home he's a little less restrained, but he won't be caught dead in joggers or a corny t-shirt. Even as a teenager he at least had minimal style - I mean, with a sister like his who wouldn't appreciate a good quality leather jacket?
Daniel Bishop, owner of the multi-million corporation Bishop Hotels, has been with a number of women. Only a small proportion of which were his wives. His first wife, Lacie Spiegelman, gave him a daughter. Being the sexist millionaire he is, Daniel did not give his daughter Cressida the inheritance. Wife the second died in a car crash a few weeks after the wedding. Wife the third is still alive and married, though unhappily. She had a son, Clarence Bishop, but Daniel had been cheating and got another woman pregnant around the same time. Zachary Bishop was born a few hours before Clarence, on the same day.
Daniel took custody of Zachary and told his wife to raise him as her own, and so the two boys grew up believing themselves to be siblings. Zachary was named heir, as the elder, but the twins' 'mother' has always preferred Clarence to him. Probably because he wasn't the result of an affair.
Growing up in the hotel was fun, though their father's general stance was "nO RUNNING IN MY LOBBY." Clarence's first sign of magic was a few months after Zach's, when they were seven. They'd knocked over an expensive vase while running in the lobby and suddenly it fixed itself. That's what Clarence is good at - fixing things. He once fixed a toy car with a pencil, a roll of tape, and a rubber band. When the boys were eight, Rosalie Draganov started living with them. Clarence still isn't entirely sure why she's even there, but he still quite likes her.
Growing up with an older sister like Cressida Bishop was bound to make an impact somehow, and on Clarence it shows a bit more than on Zach. She's somehow managed to indirectly get him to start smoking. He knows it's bad for his lungs and he might get cancer etcetera etcetera - he's had those lectures like 20 000 000 times - but it's not as though he smokes too much.
School was a good time for Clarence - except seventh year, of course, where he caught scrofungulus during the epidemic and almost died. Regardless, he met his best friend, Cedrica, and once they graduated they bought an apartment together. Now they've managed to make magic work with technology and set up their own company, WizCo, to promote technology and its development in the wizarding world.
The first thing anyone has to know about Clarence is that he never ever shows enthusiasm. He's the salt to Zach's sugar. In all honestly, he's still enthusiastic on the inside. He just shows it oddly. Well, if you get the right topic he can be made mildly enthusiastic, but it's very, very difficult. Clarence is very competitive, and he somehow manages to be both unenthusiastic and competitive. At the same time. He thinks it's just his natural ability to multitask, though he can only really do that within his projects.
Clarence's 'projects' are really the only thing he's ever remotely excited (oN THE OUTSIDE) about, and he's built up quite the reputation around his house for snapping at people who interrupt him. He's ridiculously intelligent, and he really wants to go to Cambridge Unversity. Not Oxford - he's been there before and it's waaay too grand. Cambridge is okay.
Usually Clarence hates games, but he'll make an exception for chess. Or games which he knows how to win at. Anyway, back to chess: he's never been beaten, but then again he's never taken part in an actual chess tournament. He always has at least one earbud in, and it's a sure sign that he holds someone in high esteem if he takes both out for them. He also refuses to disclose what he's listening to. Ever.
Now that he's been working for so long, Clarence has really learned the value of people skills. His smiles come a lot faster now, and though he's still quiet he's more than capable of turning on the charisma. Of course, he'd rather be in his office working on his projects, but he's more than capable of connecting with people on a personal level. Character development much?

A two-day forum gathered local advocates to fight homelessness in Saskatoon. The advocates have plugged 72 recommendations that the United Way will use to unveil a plan next month.
The forum, called a charette, is an idea that assembled stakeholders to come up with concrete ways to fight homelessness in the locality. The forum's attendees were asked to pin down the barriers that prevent people from getting a permanent residence meant for habitation.


An alliance says that Wi-Fi Protected Access 2, or WPA2, is a big improvement on earlier wireless security standards.
The first products certified to support Wi-Fi Protected Access 2, the latest wireless security technology, were announced by the Wi-Fi Alliance on Wednesday.
The Wi-Fi Alliance says WPA2 is a big improvement on earlier wireless security standards, such as Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP), which hackers have found easy to circumvent. It includes Advanced Encryption Standard, which supports 128-bit, 192-bit and 256-bit keys.
Because WPA2 is compatible with WPA, companies that have already implemented WPA can upgrade to the new standard in stages.
"WPA2 is ideally suited for enterprises in both the public and private sectors," said Frank Hanzlik, Wi-Fi Alliance managing director. "Products that are certified for WPA2 give IT managers the assurance that the technology meets interoperability standards and in turn helps them manage support and deployment costs."
Components of WPA2 are included in the 802.11i standard, which was developed by the Institute for Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) and received final approval earlier this summer.
Security, or the lack of it, is thought to have inhibited the implementation of wireless networks by businesses. Analysts predict that 802.11i could be what is needed to boost the enterprise Wi-Fi market.
As is often the case with new standards, some vendors were keen to steal a march on their rivals. Wireless equipment using prestandard versions of 802.11i has been available for most of this year, but buyers had no guarantee of interoperability.
A Wi-Fi Alliance spokesman said on Wednesday that WPA2 would be "the core from which other security measures emanate" in the future.
Companies obtaining WPA2 certification from the Wi-Fi Alliance on Sept. 1 include Atheros Communications, Broadcom, Cisco Systems, Intel and Realtek.

Single-cell systems-level analysis of human Toll-like receptor activation defines a chemokine signature in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus
O'Gorman, W.E., Hsieh, E.W., Savig, E.S. et al.
Activation of Toll-like receptors (TLRs) induces inflammatory responses involved in immunity to pathogens and autoimmune pathogenesis, such as in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Although TLRs are differentially expressed across the immune system, a comprehensive analysis of how multiple immune cell subsets respond in a system-wide manner has not been described.
We sought to characterize TLR activation across multiple immune cell subsets and subjects, with the goal of establishing a reference framework against which to compare pathologic processes.
Peripheral whole-blood samples were stimulated with TLR ligands and analyzed by means of mass cytometry simultaneously for surface marker expression, activation states of intracellular signaling proteins, and cytokine production. We developed a novel data visualization tool to provide an integrated view of TLR signaling networks with single-cell resolution. We studied 17 healthy volunteer donors and 8 patients with newly diagnosed and untreated SLE.
Our data revealed the diversity of TLR-induced responses within cell types, with TLR ligand specificity. Subsets of natural killer cells and T cells selectively induced nuclear factor κ light chain enhancer of activated B cells in response to TLR2 ligands. CD14hi monocytes exhibited the most polyfunctional cytokine expression patterns, with more than 80 distinct cytokine combinations. Monocytic TLR-induced cytokine patterns were shared among a group of healthy donors, with minimal intraindividual and interindividual variability. Furthermore, autoimmune disease altered baseline cytokine production; newly diagnosed untreated SLE patients shared a distinct monocytic chemokine signature, despite clinical heterogeneity.
Mass cytometry defined a systems-level reference framework for human TLR activation, which can be applied to study perturbations in patients with inflammatory diseases, such as SLE.

ROBOT WARS: Self-piloting 'Sea Hunter' ship with NO crew will track down enemy submarines
ROBOTIC warfare took a major leap forward today after the US Navy launched its very first self-piloting ship designed to hunt enemy submarines.
By Tom Batchelor
PUBLISHED: 12:00, Fri, Apr 8, 2016 | UPDATED: 13:14, Fri, Apr 8, 2016
The autonomous ship 'Sea Hunter' in dock in Oregon
The 132-foot-long (40-metre-long) unarmed prototype, dubbed the Sea Hunter, is designed to cruise on the ocean's surface for two or three months at a time - without a crew or anyone controlling it remotely.
The naval equivalent of Google's self-driving car, Sea Hunter could save the Navy millions of dollars if it successfully tracks down enemy vessels without the need for a costly crew.
China's expanding submarine fleet has raised concern in Washington about the vulnerability of its aircraft carriers and submarines, which form a vital part of America's military superiority in the Pacific Ocean.

British Army's latest piece of war kit - a remote-controlled...
Peter Singer, an expert on robotic warfare at the New America Foundation think tank, said: "We're not working on anti-submarine [technology] just because we think it's cool.
"We're working on it because we're deeply concerned about the advancements that China and Russia are making in this space."
The ship is believed to have cost just $20million (£14m) - a fraction of the cost of a conventional craft - and has a daily operating cost of between $15,000 (£10,000) and $20,000 (£14,000).
World's largest cruise ship Harmony of the Seas
The world's largest cruise ship, which is almost 165 feet longer than the Eiffel Tower, has set off on its first sea trial from France. Harmony of the Seas, which cost almost £800million to build and weighs 227,000 tonnes.

Deputy US Defence Secretary Robert Work said he wanted to see unmanned ships to ply the Pacific and the Persian Gulf - where vessels operating against Islamic State are based.
He said: "This is the first time we've ever had a totally robotic, trans-oceanic-capable ship."
Sea Hunter must now undergo two years of testing to check that its radar and cameras can be reliably used to avoid other vessels.

Powered by two diesel engines, the ship can reach speeds of 27 knots.
But despite its fully autonomous robotic system, defence officials have stressed that humans would be involved in any decision to launch weapons from the vessel were it to be involved in active combat in the future.
Robots are already used by air forces around the world in the form of drones, which carry out both surveillance missions and bombing raids.
The British Army has also purchased a remote-controlled tank dubbed the 'Swiss army Knife', which can split a piece of solid concrete in two and withstand waves of up to six and a half feet.

The aptly named Terrier has been designed to meet the challenges of warfare on the battlefields of the future, with flexible tools and a telescopic investigation arm that can probe improvised explosive devices buried deep underground.
Originally launched as a conventional digger, the 32-tonne machine has been fitted with state-of-the-art technology by defence engineers to ensure it keeps a step ahead.
The combat vehicle can tear up roads or runways, stopping adversaries from using them, and can reach speeds of 45 miles an hour.

Thanks for sharing this, Kim.
That Molly Ringwald piece on John Hughes is fantastic. I especially appreciated this line: "She had to have a feeling about it, rather than a thought, because thoughts are things we have when we are conscious, and she wasn't." Thanks for sharing this, Kim.
Isn't it great that someone like Molly Ringwald turns out to be so much more than Pretty In Pink?
Michelle Kingdom's kingdoms are superb.
The seven women and their seven stand-in mothers is so uplifting even though most stem from such tragedies.
Great string of links to get us through Friday!

Singapore Lottery System Aurora to Be Used by Singapore Pools
The IGT subsidiary will provide the Singapore lottery system Aurora as part of a six-year contract with Singapore Pools. This solution is designed to facilitate lottery innovation and profitability, and offer the reliability and scalability required for high volume transactions. The platform includes the Aurora Navigator, which is a single-point of management for all lottery applications. The Data Connector platform enables fast data integration from external applications. Aurora Anywhere will provide a secure gateway for lottery software, enabling it to interact with external systems and provide a more diversified experience for players.
Local punters often try to find inspiration for 4D numbers. While many of these are not incredibly popular, they have been cited by a variety of sources. For example, the date of birth and death of the late king Getai, the licence plate numbers of traffic accidents, and even funeral wakes are common sources of lucky numbers. Some punters even pray for these lucky numbers at temples and natural formations, and note down the registration numbers of motorcyclists for their 4D bets.
In addition to donating money to charities, SG Pools' operations are committed to promoting sports and physical activity in Singapore. In fact, SG Pools distributes lottery monies to several national sports associations, including the Singapore Sports Council. For example, SG Pools is a major sponsor of the Singapore National Sports Association. Its a new generation of Singapore's gaming industry. The new regulator will be able to respond to global trends and the emergence of new gaming products.

A little help
With six games left, the Bengals need a little help.
But not all that much if they take care of their own business in their bid to secure the AFC's sixth and final playoff spot that looks more and more like it is going to come down to their record in the conference.
And if they can survive this stretch, the Bengals can look forward to playing an easier schedule next season than this year's hardest in the NFL.
Only two teams fighting for the same spot, the Jaguars and Chiefs at 6-4, have a better record than the 5-5 Bengals. If it finishes tied with Kansas City, Cincinnati would go based on its head-to-head win against the Chiefs on Opening Day. Since the Bengals don't play Jacksonville, it comes down to conference record and both are at 3-3.
The same goes with the 5-5 Jets and their 4-4 record in the AFC.
All six of Cincinnati's games are in the AFC against teams with a combined record of 33-27 with the tough nuts being games at the 9-1 Colts and 7-3 Broncos.
The Jags also have to play the Colts and although it's at home, their six remaining AFC opponents are also a combined 33-27. The Jets have it much easier with four AFC games left against clubs that are 12-27, none have a winning record, and the only one on the road is Christmas Night against the 4-6 Dolphins.
It shouldn't be as hard as next season if you take a peek. The Bengals are looking at playing a combined sub-.500 schedule that is currently at 79-81. That same percentage would give them the 10th easiest schedule in the NFL next season if the projections hold up, compared to the grueling .543 they are playing this season.
All but two of the foes are known. The projected two wild card teams are that Jacksonville team they can't seem to shake, and Denver. But that would only hold up if all three finish second in their divisions.
The 2007 road games feature a tilt at 6-4 Seattle, but also games at the 4-6 Bills and Dolphins and the .500 49ers. The 7-3 Patriots and 5-5 Jets lead the home sked.

Will N.J. join N.Y. in trying to ban flavored e-cigarettes? Murphy says he's looking into it.
Concern over vaping has grown recentlyAP
By Brent Johnson | NJ Advance Media for NJ.com
Concerns over whether vaping is harmful to your health have grown lately — so much so that New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo said Monday he wants his state to pass a law banning flavored electronic cigarettes.
So will neighboring New Jersey follow suit?
Gov. Phil Murphy said Tuesday that "we are considering all options."
The governor also noted that the state Department of Health last Friday sent out a statewide health alert to health care providers and local health departments about the possible dangers of vaping — in which e-cigarettes turn liquid containing nicotine and heated oil into vapor.
More than 450 mysterious illnesses associated with vaping have been reported recently in 33 states, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Six people have died. The CDC has not yet identified a specific cause for the outbreak, including whether black-market or legal vaping products are to blame.
New Jersey's health department has confirmed three cases and is investigating 19 others of severe lung illness in people who vape and have required hospital care, according to the state website. The most recent case was reported Friday, the website said.
"I'm certain we'll be taking more action," Murphy, a Democrat, said at an unrelated event in Morristown on Tuesday.
New Jersey's health department said it's working with the CDC as it gathers more information for the cases here.
"The current risk to individuals who use vaping products and develop lung issues as described by CDC is currently not known," the department said. "However, there are inherent dangers with the use of e-cigarettes and vaping products. E-cigarettes can contain other harmful substances besides nicotine."
New Jersey lawmakers considered a bill (S298/A3704) in 2017 to ban the sale and distribution of flavored e-cigarettes, which are particularly popular with kids and young adults.
Sponsors said the hundreds of flavors available make it easier to attract teenagers into vaping and possibly smoking.
The measure would have allowed tobacco, menthol, and clove vapors to remain. New Jersey already bars flavored cigarettes, except those flavors.
But the bill stalled in the state Legislature.
Vaping proponents have argued e-cigarettes are healthier than traditional cigarettes and help thousands quit smoking.
But recently, several states and the federal Food and Drug Administration have launched investigations into whether vaping is dangerous.
Murphy was also critical of vaping during his call-in radio show last week.
"It's become I think a pervasive, real health challenge, particularly for teens and young folks," the governor said on WBGO in Newark. "And the flavored part of it drives me crazy, because it's clearly — everyone has their eyes open as to what they're doing."
He said he'd be "open-minded" to banning flavored e-cigarettes."
"I think that sounds like it's got some merit," Murphy added.
Cuomo also announced Monday the New York Department of Health will investigate vaping companies and require shops that sell e-cigarettes to post a warning.
"This is a frightening public health phenomenon that young people engage in," the Democratic governor said. "Common sense says if you do not know what you are smoking, don't smoke it."

CASE NAME: Ajax Tool Works, Inc. v. Can-Eng Manufacturing Ltd.
The issue before the court was whether the claims of the buyer should be dismissed before trial on the ground that there was no genuine issue as to material fact and the seller was entitled to judgment as a matter of law.
The seller, a company with its place of business in Ontario, Canada, agreed to sell a fluidized bed furnace to the buyer, an Illinois corporation with its place of business in the United States. The parties' contract provided that the seller would repair or replace, at its option, any defects in workmanship or material which might develop under normal use during a period of 90 days after the date of shipment. The contract also provided that repair or replacement under this provision constituted the seller's full liability with respect to the furnace and that the seller was not liable for consequential damages. The contract was to be governed by the laws of the Province of Ontario.
During the four years following shipment, the buyer encountered numerous difficulties with the furnace. The buyer notified the seller of the difficulties and the seller attempted many repairs without charge to the buyer. All the buyer's notices were given after 90 days from shipment. The buyer sued the seller for breach of contract and warranties. The buyer moved to dismiss the suit before trial. As to most claims, the court declined to grant summary judgment.
The court found that the parties' contract was governed by the Convention because the parties had their places of business in two different Contracting States pursuant to art. 1(1)(a) CISG. The court also found that the parties had not agreed to exclude application of the Convention according to art. 6 CISG. The contract term making the laws of Ontario govern was read to be a reference to the Convention as the relevant law applicable in Ontario. Although the buyer's pleadings made claims under the domestic sales law of Ontario rather than the Convention, the court concluded that the pleadings gave legally sufficient notice of claims under the Convention.
As for the buyer's claim that the seller had breached express terms with respect to the quality of the furnace (art. 35(1) CISG), the court declined to grant summary judgment because there remained an issue of material fact as to whether the seller had waived the 90-day contract clause or was stopped from enforcing that clause. The court stated that the Convention did not address the issue of waiver and it applied the laws of Ontario to fill the perceived gap. On the basis of art. 7(2) CISG.
On the same ground, the court declined to grant summary judgment with respect to the buyer's claim that the seller had breached its obligations to deliver a furnace fit for its ordinary use and fit for the buyer's particular use (art. 35(2)(a), (2)(b) CISG). The court further found that the parties had not agreed to exclude these obligations as per art. 6 CISG.
The court did, however, grant summary judgment with respect to the buyer's claims for damages for consequential losses. The court stated that the contract term excluding such damages was enforceable according to art. 6 CISG. It also stated that the buyer had failed to produce evidence that the losses were foreseeable by the seller (art. 74 CISG).
DISPOSITION: Defendant's motion for summary judgment denied in part and granted in part.
COUNSEL: For Ajax Tool Works, Inc., plaintiff: Barry Charles Kessler, Thomas Andrew Christensen, Kessler & Krantz, Chicago, IL. For Can-Eng Manufacturing Ltd., defendant: Alan L. Unikel, Christopher Eric Paetsch, Seyfarth Shaw, Chicago, IL.
On March 15, 2002, plaintiff Ajax Tool Works, Inc. [buyer] filed a four-count first amended complaint against Can-Eng Manufacturing Ltd. [seller] alleging breach of express and implied warranties and breach of contract. On December 23, 2002, [seller] moved, pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 56, for summary judgment. Having considered this matter fully, for the reasons stated herein, [seller]'s motion for summary judgment is denied in part and granted in part.
Plaintiff [buyer], an Illinois corporation, is a manufacturer of chisels, hammers, and other tools. Defendant [seller], an Ontario, Canada corporation, manufactures industrial furnaces, including a fluidized bed furnace, which is at issue in this case. In January 1996, at the request of Lindberg Technical and Management Services, a consulting firm retained by [buyer], [seller] submitted a proposal in which it offered to supply a fluidized bed furnace to [buyer]. [Buyer] did not accept this offer. Over the course of 1996, [seller] submitted two follow-up proposals to [buyer], neither of which was accepted. On January 27, 1997, [seller] sent [buyer] a fourth proposal to sell a fluidized bed furnace to [buyer] for $ 90,000. After issuance of the proposal, the parties entered into an agreement whereby [buyer] purchased the furnace from [seller]. The terms of the January 27, 1997, proposal formed the parties' contract.
"WARRANTY - [Seller] in connection with apparatus sold will repair or replace, at the option of [seller], f.o.b. our factory, any defects in workmanship or material which may develop under proper and normal use during a period of ninety days from date of shipment or completion of installation if installation is undertaken by [seller]. Such repair or replacement shall constitute a fulfillment of all [seller] liabilities with respect to such apparatus. [Seller] shall not be liable for consequential damages. This warranty shall not apply if alterations or modifications of any nature are made by the Purchaser or if erection, installation or stating up is not performed under [seller] supervision or under [seller] approved methods.
"[Seller]'s liability for the service of any refractories, alloy or other component parts manufactured by other than [seller] but incorporated in the equipment furnished to Purchaser, shall be limited to the guarantee or liability to [seller] of the manufacturer or supplier of such components. [Seller] is not responsible in any manner for operation of the equipment in Purchaser's plant.
"[Seller]'s warranties or guarantees do not cover the process of manufacture or the quality of the product on which this equipment may be used.
"OTHER UNDERSTANDINGS - All previous oral or written agreements between the parties hereto which are contrary to or inconsistent with this proposal are hereby abrogated, it being understood that there are no agreements, guarantees or understandings which are in conflict with or inconsistent with this proposal. A purchase order covering the materials, apparatus or equipment specified herein shall be considered by both the Purchaser and [seller] to be merely an acceptance of this Proposal and the Terms and Conditions set forth herein, and any other terms or conditions which may be printed or contained on such purchase order which are in conflict with or inconsistent with this proposal shall be not applicable. This agreement shall be governed by the laws of the Province of Ontario, Canada. Any terms and conditions herein, which may be in conflict with Ontario Law, shall be deleted, however, all other terms and conditions shall remain in force and effect."
[Seller] shipped the furnace to [buyer] on June 26, 1997, and it arrived at [buyer]'s plant on June 27, 1997. [Buyer] installed and started the furnace itself. Over the course of the next four years, [buyer] experienced problems with the furnace, particularly that the furnace would not attain and hold the selected temperature, used an excessive amount of sand, and did not function properly with compressed air as the atmosphere. The parties dispute exactly when and how often [buyer] reported these problems to [seller], but viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to [buyer], the non-moving party, as this court must, this court finds that [buyer] lodged a considerable number of complaints with [seller]. It appears that all of these complaints were made more than ninety days after installation. In response to many of these complaints, [seller] attempted to repair or in some way remedy the problem, some, at least, at no cost to [buyer].
This court now considers [seller]'s motion for summary judgment.
Under Rule 56(c), summary judgment is proper "if the pleadings, depositions, answers to interrogatories, and admissions on file, together with the affidavits, if any, show that there is no genuine issue as to any material fact and that the moving party is entitled to a judgment as a matter of law." Fed. R. Civ. P. 56(c). In ruling on a motion for summary judgment, the evidence of the nonmovant must be believed and all justifiable inferences must be drawn in the nonmovant's favor. Anderson v. Liberty Lobby, Inc., 477 U.S. 242, 255, 91 L. Ed. 2d 202, 106 S. Ct. 2505 (1996). This court's function is not to weigh the evidence and determine the truth of the matter, but to determine whether there is a genuine issue for trial.
A party who bears the burden of proof on a particular issue, however, may not rest on its pleadings, but must affirmatively demonstrate, by specific factual allegations, that there is a genuine issue of material fact that requires trial. Celotex Corp. v. Catrett, 477 U.S. 317, 324, 91 L. Ed. 2d 265, 106 S. Ct. 2548 (1986). There is no issue for trial "unless there is sufficient evidence favoring the nonmoving party for a jury to return a verdict for that party." Anderson, 477 U.S. at 249.
It is not the function of this court to scour the record in search of evidence to defeat a motion for summary judgment; the nonmoving party must identify with reasonable particularity the evidence upon which that the party relies. Bombard v. Fort Wayne Newspapers, Inc., 92 F.3d 560, 562 (7th Cir. 1996). The evidence relied upon must be competent evidence of a type otherwise admissible at trial. Id.
As a preliminary matter, this court must determine what law governs the parties' contract. In order to provide for the orderly conduct of international commerce, the United States, Canada, and the province of Ontario have adopted the United Nations Convention on the International Sale of Goods ("CISG" or "Convention"). 15 U.S.C.A. App. at 332; R.S.C. 1991, c.13; R.S.O. 1990, C.I.10. As Judge Lindberg pointed out, "federal caselaw interpreting and applying the CISG is scant." Usinor Industeel v. Leeco Steel Prods., Inc., 209 F. Supp. 2d 880, 884 (N.D. Ill. 2002). The CISG "applies to contracts of sale [of goods between parties whose places of business are in different States when the States are Contracting States." CISG Art. 1 � 1(a). By agreement, parties may exclude application of the CISG by expressly providing in the contract that the law of a non-CISG jurisdiction applies or that the CISG does not control. CISG Art. 6; R.S.O., c.I.10, s. 6.
In this case, it is undisputed that [buyer], an Illinois corporation, and [seller], an Ontario corporation, are parties whose places of business are in different States and that these states are Contracting States. Thus, unless the parties have opted-out, the CISG applies here. The parties' contract states that the "agreement shall be governed by the laws of the Province of Ontario, Canada." Obviously, this clause does not exclude the CISG. Further, although the parties have designated Ontario law as controlling, it is not the provincial law of Ontario that applies; rather, because the CISG is the law of Ontario, the CISG governs the parties' agreement. See Asante Techs., Inc. v. PMC-Sierra, Inc., 164 F. Supp. 2d 1142, 1150 (N.D. Cal. 2001) ("Defendant [seller]'s choice of applicable law adopts the law of British Columbia, and it is undisputed that the CISG is the law of British Columbia.").
Although the CISG applies to the parties' contract, contrary to [buyer]'s argument, the terms and conditions and all limitations contained in the contract are not completely superseded by the provisions of the CISG. ([buyer]'s Mem. in Opp'n at 4.) The CISG does not preempt a private contract between parties; instead, it provides a statutory authority from which contract provisions are interpreted, fills gaps in contract language, and governs issues not addressed by the contract. In fact, Article 6 states that parties may, by contract, "derogate from or vary the effect of any of [the CISG's] provisions." CISG Art. 6. Accordingly, under the CISG, the terms of the parties' agreement control. In this case, the limited warranty, as part of the contract executed by the parties, lawfully limits [buyer]'s remedies. As will be discussed below, however, there are material facts in dispute as to whether [seller] has waived this limited warranty.
In counts I and II, [buyer] alleges that [seller] breached an express and implied warranty under the Ontario Sale of Goods Act. (Count I P 22; Count II PP 19, 20.) [Seller] argues that because [buyer] cited to the Ontario Sale of Good Act, instead of the applicable CISG, summary judgment in its favor on these counts is warranted. (Mem. in Support at 13-15; Reply at 5.) Under Seventh Circuit precedent, however, a plaintiff "cannot plead herself out of court by citing to the wrong legal theory or failing to cite any theory at all." Ryan v. Illinois Dep't of Children & Family Servs., 185 F.3d 751, 764 (7th Cir. 1999); see also Bartholet v. Reishauer A.G. (Zurich), 953 F.2d 1073, 1078 (7th Cir. 1992) (explaining that "the complaint need not identify a legal theory, and specifying an incorrect theory is not fatal"). In the case at hand, "it is of no moment therefore that [buyer's] complaint identified the wrong statute as the basis for [its] claim, as long as [its] allegations gave notice of a legally sufficient claim and [it] brought the legal support for [its] claim to the district court's attention in [its] response to [seller's] summary judgment motion." Ryan, 185 F.3d at 764 (citations omitted). It is clear that under the CISG actions for breach of express and implied warranties are actionable. CISG 35(1); CISG 35(2). Thus, summary judgment on the basis that [buyer] brought its claims under the Ontario Sale of the Goods Act rather than the CISG is denied.
Page 7 of the January 27, 1997, proposal states that the "constant flow of particles assures tremendously uniform temperatures of +/-5 [degrees] with in [sic] the work space." Further, the document, also on page 7, states that "the bed maintains excellent temperature uniformity throughout." Finally, page 11 states that one of the atmosphere capabilities is "Air." [Buyer] alleges that [seller] breached these express warranties and express provisions of the contract.
Articles 30 and 35 of the CISG require a seller to "deliver goods which are of the quantity, quality and description required by the contract ...." CISG Art. 35; see Art. 30 ("The seller must deliver the goods, hand over any documents relating to them and transfer the property in the goods, as required by the contract and this Convention."). The issue, therefore, is whether the good delivered, i.e., the furnace, complied with the express warranties of the contract. The parties dispute this point. (See [buyer]'s Resp. to [seller]'s Specific Allegations of Fact PP 38, 39, 40; [seller]'s Resp. to [buyer]'s Stmt. of Additional Facts PP 24, 31, 32, 34, 35, 36, 37, 40.) [Buyer] asserts, inter alia, that the furnace did not maintain a constant temperature, used an excess amount of sand, and, contrary to the express warranty, did not function properly with air as the atmosphere to fluidize the furnace. [Seller] disputes these allegations and maintains that the furnace worked as specified. Because there are material facts in dispute as to whether the furnace conformed to the express warranty and specifications in the contract, this court cannot grant summary judgment.
[Seller] argues that although there may be material facts in dispute as to the condition of the furnace, the limited warranty precludes [buyer]'s recovery. [Seller] asserts that its only obligation to [buyer] was to repair or replace any defects in workmanship or material during a period of ninety days from the date of shipment. Because the alleged problems with the furnace occurred after the ninety-day warranty period, [seller] contends, [buyer] is prohibited from proceeding on the claims it has asserted against [seller].
[Seller] advances a strong argument, and [buyer] fails to address this argument under the CISG in its response. Because there are material facts in dispute as to whether [seller] has waived its right to enforce the limited warranty, however, this court cannot, as a matter of law, enforce the limited warranty. A waiver is the "intentional or voluntary relinquishment of a known right, or such conduct as warrants an inference of the relinquishment of such right ...." BLACK's LAW DICTIONARY 1580 (6th ed. 1990). As this court has explained above, the CISG is the governing law in this case. However, the parties did not present, and this court could not find, any cases under the CISG that address the issue of waiver. Article 7 of the CISG provides that in such a case where "questions concerning matters governed by this Convention which are not expressly settled in it are to be settled in conformity with the general principles on which it is based or, in the absence of such principles, in conformity with the law applicable by virtue of the rules of private international law." Here, under private international law, because of the parties' express choice-of-law provision, Ontario law would apply.
Under Ontario law, a party can waive "by its words and conduct" the right to rely on a limited warranty. General Refractories Co. of Canada Ltd. v. Venturedyne Ltd., 2002 WL 32938 at P 157, 2002 Carswell Ont. 36 (Ont. S.C.J. 2002). If [seller] gave, after the ninety-day period, "repeated assurance that it would support" the furnace, a trier of fact could find that it waived its limited warranty, Id. at P 159. Further, [buyer] may be able to rely on the doctrine of promissory estoppel to preclude enforcement of the limited warranty. The General Refractories court stated that "[a] promise, whether express or inferred from a course of conduct, is intended to be legally binding if it reasonably leads the promisee to believe that a legal stipulation, such as strict time of performance, will not be insisted upon ...." Id. at P 158 (quoting Owen Sound Pub. Library v. Mial Devs. Ltd. (1979), 102 D.L.R. (3d) 685 (Ont. C.A.), at 691).
The record shows that there are material facts in dispute as to whether [seller], by providing service and repair, some of which at no charge, after the ninety-day limited warranty period, waived its limited warranty or whether [buyer] can preclude enforcement under the doctrine of promissory estoppel. (See [buyer]'s Resp. to [seller]'s Specific Allegations of Fact PP 38, 39, 40; [seller]'s Resp. to [buyer]'s Stmt. of Additional Facts PP 21, 24, 26, 30, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 41; [seller]'s 56.1(a) Stmt. PP 35, 36, 37; [seller]'s Mem. in Support at 9, 12.) Consequently, summary judgment must be denied as to the claims alleged in counts I and III of [buyer]'s complaint.
(b) are fit for any particular purpose expressly or impliedly made known to the seller at the time of the conclusion of the contract, except where the circumstances show that the buyer did not rely, or that it was unreasonable for him to rely, on the seller's skill and judgment ...."
Along with the contract, [buyer] alleges that [seller] has breached these implied warranties. The same genuine questions of material fact as to whether the furnace complied with the express warranties apply with equal force to the implied warranties. Therefore, this court cannot grant summary judgment.
Under CISG, the presumption is that the goods "are fit for the purpose for which goods of the same description would ordinarily be used" and are "fit for any particular purpose expressly or impliedly made known to the seller at the time of the conclusion of the contract." However, this presumption is subject to an express agreement among the parties to the contrary. Under CISG, the only question is whether the disclaimer is a part of the agreement between the parties, arguably a tougher, yet ultimately fairer standard. Susanne Cook, CISG: From the Perspective of the Practitioner, 17 J.L. & COM. 343, 347 (1998).
Contrary to [seller]'s assertion, the parties' agreement does not contain an express disclaimer of any implied warranties. The parties have not agreed expressly that the furnace did not have to perform in a similar fashion as other like furnaces would perform or as [seller] expressly or impliedly made known that the furnace would. The parties' agreement simply limited [buyer]'s remedies. As stated above, this limited warranty provision is part of the parties' contract, but a genuine issue of material fact exists as to whether [seller] has waived, or is precluded by the doctrine of promissory estoppel, its right to rely on the limited warranty. Accordingly, summary judgment is denied as to the claims alleged in counts II and IV of [buyer]'s complaint.
Although issues of material fact preclude summary judgment as to liability, because there are no genuine issues of material fact as to some of [buyer]'s alleged damages and [seller] is entitled to judgment as a matter of law, summary judgment is appropriate in part.
It is undisputed that the parties' agreement states that "[Seller] shall not be liable for consequential damages." As discussed above, such limited liability provision is enforceable under the CISG. Further, although Article 74 of the CISG provides for consequential damages, "such damages may not exceed the loss which the party in breach foresaw or ought to have foreseen at the time of the conclusion of the contract, in the light of the facts and matters of which he then knew or ought to have known, as a possible consequence of the breach of contract." CISG Art. 74. Because [buyer] did not address this point in its response memorandum, as best this court can tell, [buyer] has not introduced any evidence that the consequential damages sought were foreseeable to [seller]. For these reasons and because there are no facts disputed, summary judgment is granted as to consequential damages.
As discussed above, a judicial admission by a party takes an issue out of contention. At a January 15, 2003, hearing before Magistrate Judge Keys, the court stated on the record that [buyer]'s counsel had taken "lost productivity," "lost profits," and "lost customers" "off the table." ([Seller]'s Resp. to [buyer]'s Stmt. of Additional Facts, Ex. F at 10.) In addition, the court's minute order of that date made it clear that "during oral argument plaintiff [buyer]'s counsel assured the defendant [seller] that it is not seeking damages for loss of business and profits." ([Seller]'s Resp. to [buyer]'s Stmt. of Additional Facts, Ex. F.) Based on [buyer]'s judicial admissions, there are no facts in dispute as to this issue; consequently, [seller] is entitled to summary judgment as to damages for loss of business and profits. See Soo Line R. Co., 125 F.3d at 483; Keller, 58 F.3d at 1198 n.8.
[Buyer]'s complaint seeks attorneys' fees "pursuant to the law of Ontario, Canada ...." (Prayers for Relief.) The parties now agree, however, that attorneys' fees are a procedural matter governed by the law of the forum. As the Seventh Circuit recently held, "'loss' in Article 74 does not include attorneys' fees ...." Zapata Hermanos Sucesores, S.A. v. Hearthside Baking Co., Inc., 313 F.3d 385, 389 (7th Cir. 2002). Accordingly, because there is no genuine issue of fact for trial, summary judgment on this issue is granted.
For the above stated reasons, defendant's motion for summary judgment is denied as to counts I, II, III, and IV of plaintiff [buyer]'s complaint and granted as to [buyer]'s demand of consequential damages, lost productivity damages, and attorneys' fees.
1. The facts assumed to be true for purposes of this summary judgment motion are derived from [seller]'s Local Rule 56.1(a) Statement of Facts, [buyer]'s Local Rule 56.1(b) Statement of Additional Facts and Response, and [seller]'s Response to [buyer]'s Statement of Additional Facts.
2. In its memorandum in opposition to summary judgment, [buyer] disputes that it accepted [seller]'s January 27, 1997, proposal. It argues that it made a counter-offer that [seller] accepted on January 24, 1997, and that it never executed the contract containing the terms in dispute. In its first amended complaint, however, [buyer] alleges: "Following issuance of the [January 27, 1997 (Compl. common allegations P 8, Counts III and IV P 8)] Proposal, Plaintiff and Defendant contracted for the purchase and sale of [the furnace] ...." (Compl. common allegations P 10, Counts III and IV P 11.) [Buyer] has thereby judicially admitted that the parties entered into a contract after January 27, 1997. See Soo Line R. Co. v. St. Louis Southwestern Ry. Co., 125 F.3d 481, 483 (7th Cir. 1997) (holding that at summary judgment "judicial efficiency demands that a party not be allowed to controvert what it has already unequivocally told a court by the most formal and considered means possible."); Keller v. U.S., 58 F.3d 1194, 1198 n.8 (7th Cir. 1995) ("Judicial admissions are formal concessions in the pleadings, or stipulations by a party or its counsel, that are binding upon the party making them. They may not be controverted at trial or on appeal. Indeed, they are 'not evidence at all but rather have the effect of withdrawing a fact from contention.'" (citations omitted)).
Further, [buyer] quotes from the proposal in support of its breach of express warranty and breach of contract claims (See Count I PP 17, 18; Count III PP 18, 19) and attaches the proposal to its complaint. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 10(c) ("A copy of any written instrument which is an exhibit to a pleading is a part thereof for all purposes."). Although [buyer] argues in its memorandum in opposition to summary judgment that the proposal provisions do not apply, its judicial admissions withdraw this fact from contention and establish that the terms of the January 27, 1997, proposal were part of the parties' contract and thereby govern this dispute.
3. As will be discussed infra, the parties dispute the extent of the problems.
4. [Seller] argues that the statement in Michael J. Malget's affidavit is inconsistent with his deposition testimony. The affidavit does not state that the furnace "never worked," as [seller] alleges; rather, it says that the furnace "never worked properly for any reasonable period ...." ([buyer]'s Stmt. of Additional Facts, Ex. 15 at P 22 (emphasis added).) This court finds that this appears to be an accurate, consistent summary of Malget's deposition testimony and is therefore admissible.
6. Citations to [seller]'s Local Rule 56.1(a) Statement are judicial admissions by [seller] that it serviced [buyer]'s furnace more than ninety days after shipment of the furnace.
As stated in this court's January 28, 2003, Minute Order, this court has stricken, and thus has not consider, the affidavit of James Brody. After granting [seller]'s motion to strike, this court received [buyer]'s response to the motion to strike. Because granting the motion to strike has no effect on the disposition of this motion for summary judgment, the response is moot. However, if [seller] brings a motion in limine to preclude Brody's testimony at trial, [Buyer] may respond to such motion with the facts contained in its response to the motion to strike. This court will then rule upon such motion in limine at the final pre-trial conference.

KIEV, Ukraine — The warring sides in Ukraine's conflict announced Thursday that they would continue talks Friday, when a shaky cease-fire is set to expire, while Secretary of State John F. Kerry pushed Russia to call within "hours" for rebels in Ukraine to disarm.
The diplomatic efforts came on the eve of a critical day for Ukraine's future. President Petro Poroshenko plans to sign Friday the same economic deal with the European Union that his predecessor, Viktor Yanukovych, backed out of in November under heavy Russian pressure. That decision set off months of pro-European protests in Ukraine that eventually led to Yanukovych's ouster and the worst tension between Russia and the West since the Cold War. E.U. leaders also were set to meet Friday to discuss possible new sanctions against Russia.
A cease-fire that has calmed but not ended the violence in eastern Ukraine — where pro-Russian separatists have occupied government buildings and seized territory — was set to end Friday morning. It remained unclear whether Poroshenko would extend the truce, as Russian and European leaders have urged him to do. On Monday, the two sides met for talks for the first time.
But Poroshenko is facing increasing pressure from Ukrainian hard-liners to end the pause in hostilities, even as each side has accused the other of violating the truce. Nine soldiers died Tuesday when rebels shot down a military helicopter near the city of Slovyansk, and a Ukrainian base in the Donetsk region came under attack Thursday evening.
Early Friday, in an apparent goodwill gesture, rebels released four of eight observers from the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe who were captured in eastern Ukraine over a month ago, the organization said in a statement.
Poroshenko, speaking Thursday in Strasbourg, France, asked Russia to support his peace plan "with deeds and not just words." Ukrainian and Western officials have accused Russia of funneling weapons and volunteers across the border into Ukraine. Russia denies the charge.
Kerry had warned a day earlier that without a very public show of Russian support for the Ukrainian peace process, tougher U.S. and European sanctions may be necessary.

Rangeland weed control is widely viewed and promoted as central to enhancing ranch profitability and sustainability. It is essential to establish the direct economic impacts of weeds on profits to determine what management decisions should be made by private land owners. This study will combine forage manipulations at SFREC with manipulations at two private ranches to quantify the effects of the invasive plant medusahead on yearling livestock gains with the following objectives: develop a yield loss function that relates medusahead biomass and desired plant biomass to yearling beef cattle seasonal and total gains, quantify how changes in medusahead biomass in a pasture influences forage quantity, quality, and seasonal pattern of forage supply, integrate model development work with parallel ranch-level studies investigating the relationship between medusahead and animal gains, and develop a user friendly on-line calculator that allows producers to estimate direct economic impact of medusahead on a particular ranch under a subset of standardized conditions.


The City of Daytona Beach will allocate $15 million to a phased flood control project which will relieve flooding in prone neighborhoods. Currently, the project area is susceptible to flooding because of its naturally occurring "bowl-shaped" topography.
The project will create a drainage conveyance system in the Fairway Estates/Woodcliff Estates area that moves stormwater to a pond, or a series of ponds, and install a large pump station to pump stormwater to the Halifax River through a newly built outfall. By controlling floodwaters, overflow and mixing of sanitary sewer with the stormwater will not ultimately discharge to the Halifax River.


What a wonderful day! I have just spent 3.5 hours outside, going on a walk together with my brother. It was a perfect start on the last break before the exams. The weather was very nice; the sun was shining and it was not too cold. While walking, we listened on the radio so we could follow the Swedish skiers in the world championship. Sweden won two medals today and it was just what we wanted, congratulations Sweden! Even though neither of them were gold medals 😉 Because of the good weather a lot of people were outside and enjoyed it, a lot of them on skies. I got to say that nothing feels as good as a long walk in the woods. And on the plus side too, I may even got a bit tanned.
On our way home we came across this funny sign which is a warning for frogs. I have heard that in the summer, the whole road can be full of frogs. You cannot drive the car there without having to drive over some of them 😛 Though, I do not think that is a problem during winter.

A document that Shoghi Effendi says is "unique in the annals of the world's religious systems", the Will and Testament is the charter of the Administrative Order of the Bahá'í Faith.
Written, signed, and sealed by 'Abdu'l-Bahá, the Will and Testament consists of three sections written at three different times between 1901 and the year of His passing.
The Will and Testament affirms "the two-fold character of the Mission of the Báb", which was to bring an independent revelation from God and to herald the coming of another, greater revelation through Bahá'u'lláh. It also "discloses the full station of" Bahá'u'lláh as the "supreme Manifestation of God", declares the fundamental beliefs of the Bahá'í Faith, establishes the institution of the Guardianship, and appoints Shoghi Effendi as Guardian. It provides for the election of the Universal House of Justice and defines its scope. It also creates the institution of the National Spiritual Assembly, provides for the appointment of the Hands of the Cause of God and prescribes their obligations, and exposes the conduct of the Covenant-breakers.
Sutherland Maxwell became a Bahá'í in 1909. An architect by profession, he designed the arcade and superstructure of the Shrine of the Báb on Mount Carmel. In December 1951 he was named a Hand of the Cause of God by Shoghi Effendi, in recognition of his long years of service.
The corner stone for the House of Worship was laid by 'Abdu'l-Bahá on 1 May 1912. In 1920, the design of Louis Bourgeois was accepted by the delegates at the Annual Convention of the Bahá'ís of Canada and the United States, with the ground being broken on 21 March 1921.
There were delays in the construction due to the Great Depression and World War II, the House of Worship not being completed till 1953. The Dedication subsequently occurred in several ceremonies over the period 1 and 2 of May, 1953.

setFirstResult: This method sets the first result we would like to see in our our list. Suppose we are getting all photos of a user, by doing something like: "select user.photos from User user". The user is currently having 1000 pictures, but we want to show pictures starting from the 100th picture. We can use setFirstResult to accomplish that task.
setMaxResults: This method sets the maximum results that will be returned by the query. For example, if we would like to return only 100 photos for our user, we would do something like: query.setMaxResults(100).
As we can see we can use setFirstResult and setMaxResults to control which part of our list will be actually returned by the query. Of course, that Hibernate utilizes the specific dialect of the database server we are using to efficiently accomplish the task of fetching only a portion of the data.
Note that the method getList returns sub list of the original list. That is because the original list may return one additional item that we use only to know if there is a next page. We don't want to show this item on our user interface.
Truncate a string to a fixed maximum length and leave a request amount of characters from the end of the string. For example, if we have the text: "This is some long text test, This is some long text test, This is some long text test", and we would like to truncate the text to be maximum size of 30 characters and leave 12 characters from the end of the string, the result would look like: "This is some lo...ng text test". Note, that the "…" along with the string itself constructs no more than 30 characters.
The second function is a special case of the first function: we would like to truncate a string to a fixed maximum length, by leaving "…" at the end of the string. For example if we use the previous string, the result of truncating it will look like: "This is some long text test...". Note, that again, the maximum length of string along with the "…" is no more than 30 characters.


U.S. finance executives continue to have a less optimistic view of their own businesses and the domestic economy.
Economic sentiment—while still generally positive—has dropped four consecutive quarters to the lowest level in two years, according to the latest Business & Industry Economic Outlook Survey released Thursday by the AICPA.
The CPA Outlook Index, a nine-component measurement of sentiment, shows that CPA decision-makers in the United States are less confident than they were a year ago, especially in the domestic economy. Expectations for profits, revenue, and expansion also dropped. Declines are muted in some index components, but all are down from the fourth quarter of 2014, when overall sentiment rose for the fourth quarter in a row.
In general, the CPAOI reflects a positive outlook, despite a decline from 78 in the fourth quarter of 2014 to 69 this quarter. The last time the CPAOI came in under 70 was in the fourth quarter of 2013. An index rating above 50 indicates a positive outlook.
Index measures for U.S. economic optimism, organization optimism, expansion plans, revenue, and profits all dropped by at least 10 points in the past year. The employment component, a reflection of hiring plans, rose one point from the last quarter to 67 compared with 73 a year ago.
Forty-five per cent of respondents—mainly CFOs and controllers—are optimistic about the U.S. economy, a drop from 64% who were optimistic a year ago. The optimists most often cited construction, employment, and lower oil prices as reasons for a positive outlook. The primary reasons given by those expressing less optimism about the U.S. economy were regulation, leadership, and political gridlock as well as global economic turmoil.
Expected growth in revenue and profits for the next 12 months dropped for the second consecutive quarter to 2.9% and 2%, respectively. The last time revenue and profits projections were lower was in the fourth quarter of 2012.
Regulatory requirements and changes again ranked as the top challenge in the survey, which used the responses of 852 CPA decision-makers. Domestic economic conditions, fifth on the list of concerns a year ago, moved up to second, ahead of domestic competition and availability of skilled personnel. Employee benefits and costs, which had been the second most-cited challenge in the second and third quarters of this year, dropped to sixth.
Organization optimism in the survey has fallen in nine of 10 industries since the fourth quarter of 2014; only technology optimism is higher than at this time a year ago. Retail optimism fell from 66% to 28% in the past year; manufacturing optimism declined from 71% to 41%.
Businesses of all sizes have scaled back expansion plans in the past year. For example, 65% of businesses with revenue of less than $10 million in the fourth quarter of 2014 planned to expand. This quarter, that number dropped to 52%. Medium-size and large businesses also reported being less likely to expand in the next year.

The Saba Islander

Memories of the Sea-4
The 'Margareth Truph'. The Captain was Arthur Wallace Simmons from Saba and most of his crew was from Saba and they would put in with probably Peter Every's fat, fat uncles who he admired so much. This is a photo of a painting which I have.
… I went to school when I was seven and I left when I was twelve.
So when I was thirteen I was thinking about going to sea. You see, I had two uncles used to sail onto those big American schooners; and every couple of months they would pass in here, see; Every couple of months they would pass in here and remain here sometimes for two days.
And I would see these big heavy, portly-looking fellas, you know, and I always used to tell my mother that I'd like to go on a vessel to get big and fat like my uncles and they.
Yeah that always attract my nerves, you know, to see these sailors comin' up in these big vessels, and big and fat and heavy lookin' men.'
Captain Lockland Heyliger was captain of this schooner the 'East Star Jones' and would transport asphalt from Trinidad to New York. His crew was from Saba and he would put in here going and coming so that he and his crew could visit their families.

Memories of the Sea -3.
Peter Every had so many stories of a life at sea which when I have time I will be posting. He was one of a kind. He spent his last years as a house painter, a profession which many retired seamen which pick up.
" Well you know when I was a boy growing up, I used to be with those people there Under the Hill. Mr. Carl Hassell and their family lived Under The Hill. We used to be around there with them, making messages and doing from one thing to the other for them.
And Mr. Carl's brother was Captain of a schooner, he was Captain of a schooner. In fact he had must've been two or three of his own sailing vessels, you know. And every couple of weeks he'd be in here, and any of the young boys who want to go to sea would go down, and ask him to take them away.
So I says to him one day, he was in, I said, 'Captain Ben, I'd like to go aboard the vessel. He said, 'Go aboard the vessel for what? I said," Well I don't know. Everybody got to go to learn.' He said, 'Well if you wants to go to learn, 'he says, 'I'll carry you'. And he says, 'Well, we's going away Thursday, so go up and tell your mother to get your clothes ready and go aboard.'
The schooner Esther Anita one of the many fine schooners owned by Captain Ben Hassell here in New York harbour in 1915. Back then Saba schooners would be going regularly to New York.
So I went home, and I told my old lady. I said "Well I'm asked Captain Ben to carry me with him on the vessel, and he's told me to get ready. He's going back a Thursday. ' She said, 'My boy, you's too small.' 'Oh I said, ' Why that ain't nothing you got to grow.
Well, anyhow, I decided to go. And I went aboard, and there was two other young boys there besides myself, and they said 'Peter, you think you's goin' to make it?" 'Well, I,m going to try. I'm agoin to try.'
The 'Three Sisters' in Curacao harbour. Named after three daughters of Captain Abram Hassell brother of Captain Ben. Abram lived in Rhode Island and would buy schooners and bring them out to the West Indies and sell them. This one was owned by Capt. Ben and his brothers Carl, Capt. Tommy and Abram.
'He Captain Ben [Hassell] turned to the mate one day and he says,'Well, Tom, you know what's happened? We's going to Demarara tomorrow for a load of shingles and when we comes back to Barbados the vessel is going to Cuba to carry emigrants.'
My first trip on the sailin' vessels from here, I was fourteen years old. I was fourteen years old. And I been sailin' from then up to 1950, I quit.'
Memories of the Sea.2
" My father was the Captain of a li'l boat, and he got catched in a hurricane in St. Kitts. And he went to jump outside, and he jumped between the wharf and the small boat. He get squeezed. He didn't live long after.
'I went away when I only had twelve, was a young boy when I went away. I was a young li'l boy tryin' to make a living. Anyway I grew up to twelve years and then I went away in a sailing boat.
Well you see the Captain of that boat, he asked me if I want to go with him for to sail as a cabin boy. My mother was agree with it. She say, "Well I can't help you, so you got to help yourself,' yeah.
John Heyliger on his way to work his fields in Troy February 1965
The Captain give you a couple of dollars in the month, two dollars or a dollar and a half, that was all; but well you'd get your feed and your clothes always on the ship.
Oh I had to clean out the Captain's room and give him his coffee and his meals and all like that so.
We used to go sometimes to Santo Domingo, Canada, yeah St. Thomas, and St. Croix, sometimes we go Martinique , sometimes we go Guadeloupe, all these places so. B.G. (British Guiana) is a nice island you know, big place, there's very nice. Sometimes we'd make it two days, sometimes three. Barbados too. I spent two days, sometimes three. That's all. That's a nice li'l country to live; the people is very friendly and nice.
Saba schooner Marion Belle Wolfe in Nova Scotia, here securing a house after it was swept into the sea by a tidal wave.
Nova Scotia is very nice but cold. Oh yeah, a long distance to Canada, fourteen days going and fourteen days coming back. We'd spend four days there unloading a cargo of sugar, and it was winter and cold.
John Heyliger
Memories of the Sea .
Dr. Julia Crane did a tremendous job for those native people of Saba who should want to remember the hardships their ancestors went through in order to survive with their families on this little Caribbean Rock .
From time to I will post memories of some of those who were interviewed in the nineteen sixties for her book; "Saba Silhouettes".
I would like to highlight Carl Hassell today.
Mr. Carl Hassell pictured here with two of his nephews from Barbados. They were visiting here with their father's (Capt. Ben Hassell) three masted schooner the "Juliana".
…." I was just past eleven when I started out, cabin boy on a schooner. There was no money, you know, so that all we lived from was the products of the land; and soon as a boy came up twelve, fourteen years or something like that, why he tries to get away to be able to do something. All the young boys used to go at early ages.
Two of Carl Hassell's brothers. Behind the wheel Captain Tommy and in the dark jacket Capt. William Benjamin'Ben' (grandfather of Richard Goddard of Barbados)
The schooner I went on was from Saba. My brother's owned it. The schooner came out from America in 1898 and she cruised around from St. Martin, St. Barth's, all the Windward Islands, and as far as Turks island for straw they made those hats from you know. We used to bring that from Turks island and up to St. Martin, and at the latter part of the year we made a trip from here to Trinidad and Barbados.
Carl Hassell
P.S. I will post a number of these extracts from time to time.

● The individual savings account (Isa) was introduced in April 1999 by Gordon Brown, the chancellor at the time.
● It wasn't an instant success, according to Sarah Coles of Hargreaves Lansdown, a wealth manager. "Within three months Quentin Davies [a Labour MP] branded them a 'colossal failure', and within six months Lord Saatchi confirmed to the House of Lords that they had failed as a product because they were 'too complicated'," she says.
● However, the Isa has demonstrated its staying power. Over the past 20 years savers have put £870 billion into Isas and saved an estimated £30 billion in income tax.
● The annual Isa allowance has risen from £7,000 in 1999 to £20,000 in this financial year.
