To assess the ecosystem ecological health in grazing lands, an Ecological Health Index (EHI) was developed by synthesizing existing vegetation and soil cover indicators. Long-term transects in Patagonia were used to test the effectiveness of EHI. It was demonstrated that the EHI was positively correlated with species richness, the percentage of total live vegetation, and carrying capacity, and negatively correlated with bare ground. The EHI can be used as a short-term monitoring approach that ranchers could implement annually to monitor grazing land. View this paper.

finding that setting aside the entry of default would "postpone[] plaintiffs opportunity to accurately assess its options for funding restoration. . . . plaintiffs general position would be prejudiced . . in that plaintiff could never have confidence in its service of process and hence in the timing of its legal actions."Summary of this case from Colleton Prep. Academy v. Hoover Universal
Charles Hiram Williams, II, Williams and Williams, Orangeburg, SC, Stephen P. Groves, Bradish Johnson Waring, Nexsen Pruet Jacobs Pollard and Robinson, Charleston, SC, for Plaintiff.
Saunders M. Bridges, Jr., Aiken Bridges, Florence, SC, Henry Buist Smythe, Julius H. Hines, Buist Moore Smythe and McGee, Charleston, SC, Richard Kenneth Wray, Sachnoff and Weaver, Chicago, IL, for Defendants.
Hoover Treated Wood Products Inc, Atlanta, GA, pro se.
NORTON, District Judge.
I. Background
On March 24, 2003, plaintiff Colleton Preparatory Academy, Inc. (" Colleton" or " plaintiff" ) filed an action in this court against Beazer East, Inc. (" Beazer" ) and Hoover Treated Wood, Inc. (" Hoover Wood" ) alleging various causes of action for negligence and violations of the South Carolina Unfair Trade Practices Act. All of the causes of action arise out of damage to Colleton's roof trusses allegedly caused by the treatment of those trusses with fire-retardant substances produced and sold by defendants or their predecessors and applied by their licensees. Hoover Wood was apparently served through the CT Corporation on April 1, 2003, but it did not respond and default was entered against Hoover Wood on May 15, 2003.
On June 6, 2003, Colleton filed an amended complaint substituting Hoover Universal, Inc. (" Hoover Universal" or " defendant" ) for Hoover Wood, and this court issued an order vacating the default and dismissing Hoover Wood without prejudice. After plaintiff filed its amended complaint, it served process on Hoover Universal. Hoover Universal never responded, and plaintiff obtained an entry of default against Hoover Universal on August 5, 2003. Hoover Universal filed this motion to set aside the entry of default on October 17, 2003.
II. Pertinent Facts
The facts surrounding plaintiff's service of process on Hoover Universal are virtually undisputed. Plaintiff served process on Hoover Universal's registered agent, The Corporation Company (" TCC" ) through certified mail, return receipt requested on June 17, 2003, shortly after filing the amended complaint. The postal form acknowledging receipt of service was signed by an agent of TCC (possibly William G. Korsak, though that fact is not essential to this decision) on June 23, 2003. TCC is in the business of being the registered agent for service of process for many companies, including both defendants Hoover Universal and Beazer. According to TCC's records and Korsak's affidavit, TCC forwarded the service of process to Beazer, who had already been served in the lawsuit, and not to Hoover Universal. Hoover Universal claims to have had no knowledge of the suit until learning it was in default.
The amended summons that was served on defendant through TCC had a caption that read " TO: HOOVER UNIVERSAL, INC." in a conspicuous position near the top of the first page. Plaintiff included a cover letter with the June 17 mailing that specifically named Hoover Universal as the party to be served. Korsak's affidavit alleges that TCC has no record of any amended summons and complaint being directed to Hoover Universal or of any attorney letter stating the same, but admits that TCC does not retain copies of documents such as the attorney letter. In a strange if not deliberately contradicting twist, TCC attached the very amended summons with the above referenced caption to Korsak's affidavit. Furthermore, TCC's records indicate that an attorney letter was in the mailing received on June 23, and that the letter was forwarded to Beazer along with the amended summons and complaint.
Defendant Hoover Universal moved to quash service on the grounds that it was insufficient because delivery was not restricted to the addressee as required by the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure (which incorporate state rules). In the alternative, Hoover Universal moved under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 55(c) to have the entry of default set aside.
III. Defendant's Motion to Quash Service
Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 4(h) provides:
Service Upon Corporations and Associations. Unless otherwise provided by federal law, service upon a domestic or foreign corporation or upon a partnership or other unincorporated association that is subject to suit under a common name, and from which a waiver of service has not been obtained and filed, shall be effected:
(1) in a judicial district of the United States in the manner prescribed for individuals by subdivision (e)(1)....
Fed.R.Civ.P. 4(h). Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 4(e)(1), which is referenced in Rule 4(h) provides:
Service Upon Individuals Within a Judicial District of the United States. Unless otherwise provided by federal law, service upon an individual from whom a waiver has not been obtained and filed, other than an infant or an incompetent person, may be effected in any judicial district of the United States:
(1) pursuant to the law of the state in which the district court is located, or in which service is effected, for the service of a summons upon the defendant in an action brought in the courts of general jurisdiction of the State....
Fed.R.Civ.P. (4)(e)(1). Furthermore, since this court is located in South Carolina, and Rule 4(e) allows for service pursuant to the rules of the state that encapsulates the judicial district, South Carolina Rule of Civil Procedure 4(d)(8) is also applicable. South Carolina Rule 4(d)(8) provides:
Service by Certified Mail. Service of a summons and complaint upon an ... [individual, corporation, or partnership] ... may be made by the plaintiff or by any person authorized to serve process pursuant to Rule 4(c), including a sheriff or his deputy, by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested and delivery restricted to the addressee. Service is effective upon the date of delivery as shown on the return receipt. Service pursuant to this paragraph shall not be the basis for the entry of a default or a judgment by default unless the record contains a return receipt showing the acceptance by the defendant. Any such default or judgment by default shall be set aside pursuant to Rule 55(c) or Rule 60(b) if the defendant demonstrates to the court that the return receipt was signed by an unauthorized person. If delivery of the process is refused or is returned undelivered, service shall be made as otherwise provided by these rules.
S.C. R. Civ. P. 4(d)(8). Defendant argues that service was not proper under the federal rules, absent the federal rule's reference to state law, because the federal rules alone do not allow service of process by mail. Defendant further argues that service was not proper under South Carolina Rule 4(d)(8) because delivery was not restricted to the addressee.
Defendant is correct in its assertion that the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure no longer allow for service of process by mail unless it is allowed by the state where the district court presiding over the action sits or it is allowed in the state where process was served. See Langley v. Graham, 322 S.C. 428, 472 S.E.2d 259, 261 (App.1996) (noting that " the new federal rules have abolished service by mail, except to the extent permitted by applicable state practice" ); see also, Larsen v. Mayo Med. Ctr., 218 F.3d 863, 868 (8th Cir.2000) (noting that delivery under the federal rules means personally served, not merely mailed). As such, the question becomes whether service of process was proper under South Carolina's Rules of Civil Procedure.
Defendant argues that plaintiff did not restrict delivery to the addressee; therefore, service of process did not comply with South Carolina Rule of Civil Procedure 4. Defendant is correct in that delivery was not restricted to TCC, but defendant's argument is an overly technical interpretation of the South Carolina rule. Defendant is not and cannot argue that delivery should have been restricted to the defendant, Hoover Universal, itself because then the process would not have been capable of being delivered to Hoover Universal's registered agent, TCC. Instead, defendant asserts that delivery should have been restricted to TCC, who defendant apparently concedes did, in fact, receive the process. Such a technical interpretation is not warranted by South Carolina precedent.
The Supreme Court of South Carolina has " never required exacting compliance with the rules to effect service of process." Roche v. Young Bros., 318 S.C. 207, 456 S.E.2d 897, 899 (1995) (citing Foster v. Crawford, 57 S.C. 551, 36 S.E. 5 (1900); Saunders v. Bobo, 2 Bailey 492 (1831); and Miller v. Hall, 1 Speers 1 (1842)). The cases defendant cites can be distinguished because they deal with instances where the defendant did not receive proper notice of the action against it because the addressee never received the process. See Roche, 456 S.E.2d at 899 (noting that service was addressed to Edward L. Young, but J.N. Young picked up the process); Langley v. Graham, 322 S.C. 428, 472 S.E.2d 259, 259-60 (App.1996) (noting that process was addressed to defendant at his private residence, but defendant's sister signed for the process).
In the instant case, the addressee, TCC, did receive the process and the process was clearly captioned " TO: HOOVER UNIVERSAL, INC." There is corroborating evidence that the process further had a letter directing TCC to forward the process to Hoover Universal. TCC is a company whose business is to deliver service of process to other companies that have made TCC an agent for such service. Plaintiff did everything it was required to do in mailing the process to TCC, return receipt requested, and obtaining a signature from TCC's agent, William G. Korsak. As service of process was sufficient, the next question is whether the Entry of Default should be set aside under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 55(c).
The parties agree that TCC was the registered agent for Hoover Universal and that Korsak was an agent of TCC.
IV. Defendant's Rule 55(c) Motion
Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 55(c) provides " [f]or good cause shown the court may set aside an entry of default and, if a judgment by default has been entered, may likewise set it aside in accordance with Rule 60(b)." Fed.R.Civ.P. 55(c). Rule 60(b) provides six grounds for relief from judgment, including " mistake, inadvertence, surprise, or excusable neglect." See Fed.R.Civ.P. 60(b). As this court has noted in the past, Rule 55 and Rule 60 have different standards of review, but there has been some mixing and mingling of the standards in Fourth Circuit precedent, requiring careful articulation in analyzing such motions. Palmetto Fed. Sav. Bank v. Indus. Valley Title Ins. Co., 756 F.Supp. 925, 929 (D.S.C.1991). As there has been no judgment entered in the present case, Rule 55 governs this court's decision.
It is now settled that " although the clear policy of the Rules is to encourage dispositions of claims on their merits, trial judges are vested with discretion, which must be liberally exercised, in entering [default] judgments and in providing relief therefrom." United States v. Moradi, 673 F.2d 725, 727 (4th Cir.1982) (citations omitted). Furthermore, the decision to set aside an entry of default is " committed to the sound discretion of the trial court" and should only be disturbed upon a finding of an abuse of discretion. See Lolatchy v. Arthur Murray, Inc., 816 F.2d 951, 954 (4th Cir.1987); see also Williams v. Blitz, 226 F.2d 463 (4th Cir.1955); Papagianakis v. The Samos, 186 F.2d 257, 263 (4th Cir.1950). Generally speaking, " a default should be set aside where the moving party acts with reasonable promptness and alleges a meritorious defense." Consol. Masonry & Fireproofing, Inc. v. Wagman Constr. Corp., 383 F.2d 249, 251 (4th Cir.1967).
In Palmetto, this court reviewed the standards used in Rule 55 and Rule 60 cases in the Fourth Circuit and determined that a party attempting to have a judgment set aside bears a heavier burden than a party that is simply in default. Palmetto, 756 F.Supp. at 931. However, this court did note that " the factors set forth in Moradi, though they were applied to a Rule 60(b) motion, also provide useful guidelines in a motion to set aside an entry of default." Id. These factors include: " [1] the personal responsibility of the [defaulting] party [as opposed to the party's attorney], [2] the prejudice to the party [not in default], [3] whether there is a history of dilatory action, and [4] the availability of sanctions less drastic." Moradi, 673 F.2d at 728. Of the Moradi factors, courts have placed the greatest significance on the first one. See Moradi, 673 F.2d at 728; Augusta Fiberglass Coatings, Inc. v. Fodor Contracting Corp., 843 F.2d 808, 811 (4th Cir.1988); Lolatchy, 816 F.2d at 953; Palmetto, 756 F.Supp. at 932.
In short, the factors that determine whether an entry of default should be set aside include (1) the promptness of the defaulting party, (2) the presence or absence of a meritorious defense, (3) whether the party or counsel bears the responsibility for the default, (4) the prejudice that would result to the innocent party, (5) whether the defaulting party has a history of dilatory conduct, and (6) the availability of sanctions less drastic. All of these factors should be applied more leniently when the action is one under Rule 55 as opposed to one under Rule 60, and the court should always keep an eye toward the preference for meritorious resolutions of disputes. Palmetto, 756 F.Supp. at 932.
By coincidence, defendant's national counsel learned of the entry of default on October 8, 2003. Defendant filed the instant motion nine days later. From the date of actual notice of default until the instant motion, defendant seems to have acted promptly.
Defendant also seems to be able to proffer at least some evidence that it may have a meritorious defense to the instant action. " [A]ll that is necessary to establish the existence of a ' meritorious defense' is a presentation or proffer of evidence, which, if believed, would permit either the Court or the jury to find for the defaulting party." Moradi, 673 F.2d at 727 (citing Cent. Operating Co. v. Util. Workers of Am., 491 F.2d 245, 252 n.8 (4th Cir.1974)). Defendant submitted the reports of two experts that refute claims of negligence against Hoover Universal and has raised issues about statutes of repose with regard to the date of the buildings involved. Despite plaintiff's assertion that the statutes of repose do not apply because plaintiff alleged gross negligence, there do seem to be some questions as to whether there was gross negligence and consequently as to whether the statutes would apply.
As between defendant's own responsibility and that of its counsel for causing the entry of default, the blame lies solely with the defendant. Defendant hired TCC to be its registered agent for service of process. TCC received process that, had TCC used a modicum of care, should have been sent to defendant. It is very clear that the mistake is not one made by defense counsel and even clearer that it is not one made by plaintiff. This court cannot concern itself with the actions of entities not a party to the lawsuit: the issue of responsibility as between a principal and its agent is a matter to be taken up between the parties to the agency relationship.
While it is true that attorneys are agents for their clients, courts have singled out the mistakes of attorneys for lenience to parties in the context of entries of default because lawyers so often have sole responsibility and discretion in the purely legal aspects of litigation. Hired corporations, such as TCC, who are in the business of acting as registered agents for other entities do not share the same relationship with their clients that lawyers do, and the same policies are not at play. To expand the lenience granted to parties because of the mistakes of their lawyers to all agents of parties would be to effectively eliminate the procedural tool of default with regard to purely legal entities, because after all, corporations only act through agents. Such an expansion would gut a valuable incentive that is in place to expedite the judicial process. In the instant case, this court finds that there was clearly neglect on the part of TCC but that this neglect cannot be seen as excusable.
The Fourth Circuit upheld a judgment of default in a similar situation where the defendant acknowledged receiving process, but the process never made it into the proper hands of the defendant's attorneys. The Fourth Circuit noted that:
after conducting a search of its files and records, [defendant] was unable to find any record of its having received the process. [Defendant] could not explain the disappearance of the summons and complaint. [Defendant's] affidavit stated only that " it appears that the complaint and process in this action never reached the claims department and was, therefore, never brought to the attention of any of the claims people of Lexington Insurance Company so that the matter could be referred to an attorney and an answer filed...."
Park Corp. v. Lexington Ins. Co., 812 F.2d 894, 897 (4th Cir.1987). The Fourth Circuit continued that the " unexplained disappearance of the summons and complaint" did not constitute grounds for relief. While that case dealt with a Rule 60 motion, this court feels that the reasoning is still instructive.
The prejudice to plaintiff in this case rests, as it often does with default, in the delay in the proceedings. While defendant's agent was mishandling process and while plaintiff was forced to defend this motion and postpone the substantive pursuit of its claims at increased expense, plaintiff's buildings have continued to deteriorate. Further delay postpones plaintiff's opportunity to accurately assess its options for funding restoration. Furthermore, plaintiff's general position would be prejudiced by granting defendant relief from default in that plaintiff could never have confidence in its service of process and hence in the timing of its legal actions.
There are no other instances of dilatory action alleged against defendant, but misplacing the very process that brings defendant in as a party is a serious oversight and a significant hindrance to an already burdened judicial process. Less drastic sanctions would seem impotent in this context because they would not solve any of the prejudices inflicted upon plaintiff other than the costs of defending this motion, and would do little to deter defendant from further similar actions.
This court finds that the most important factor, the responsibility of the default, rests with the defendant, and while that factor is not dispositive, there are other equitable reasons for continuing to hold defendant in default.
V. Conclusion
It is therefore,
, for the foregoing reasons, that defendant's motion to quash service of process is DENIED, and defendant's motion to set aside the entry of default is also DENIED.

Clark State Honors 133 Adjunct Faculty for Years of ServiceAugust 31, 2015
Clark State Community College recognized more than 130 adjunct faculty members for their years of service at a gathering held August 19 at the Hollenbeck Bayley Creative Arts and Conference Center.
"Adjunct faculty members are an integral part of what we do - teaching and learning. We are fortunate to have so many talented individuals who bring a wealth of teaching and industry experience to our classrooms. It was so wonderful to see our adjunct faculty being recognized for their years of service with Clark State," said Dr. Amit Singh, provost and vice president of academic affairs at Clark State.
Shashi Chadha has been an adjunct instructor for Clark State for 35 years; she also serves on the Clark State Foundation Board of Directors. In 1977, when her children were in elementary school full-time, Chadha decided she was ready to return to work part-time. She began teaching Introduction to Psychology at Clark State. "I got started, and I felt really good teaching," she said.
When her children left for college, Chadha took on teaching additional courses at Clark State including abnormal psychology, communications and regional studies. "It's a wonderful place to be," Chadha said. "I've seen it grow and change its name; grow from a single campus to multiple campuses, and change from quarters to semesters."
Chadha said the connection between administration and adjunct faculty has strengthened through the years. "The present administration – Dr. Blondin and Dr. Singh – their communication and connection with adjunct faculty is really good. They listen to their needs and issues."
Chadha values student success and said she is happy that Clark State is making valiant strides towards the same goal. "I was thrilled when they implemented the Tuition Challenge Program," she said. The Tuition Challenge Program offers up to a ten percent tuition rebate for students who maintain a minimum grade of C in all classes.
"I tell my students on the first day that 'for me, it's more important that you guys do well. If you have the time to study and do well, then I have all the time in the world to see that you do well,'" she said.
Chadha said being recognized with a service award for her 35 years of teaching as a Clark State adjunct, "Felt really nice."
She will turn 70 this year, and Chadha says she would like to continue teaching as long as her physical and mental health will allow. "I truly enjoy teaching as an adjunct for Clark State," she said. "And I am very proud to be part of this and what Clark State does for the Springfield community."

Palace went into administration last night less than 24 hours before their date with the tax man at the High Court to settle a winding up order over a 1.2M unpaid tax bill. We already had a transfer embargo slapped on us over unpaid fees to other clubs. Not that that really had much impact as we couldn't afford to bring any new players in anyway.
So for the second time in 10 years Palace face the all too real prospect of non-league football as there's no noticeable queue of wealthy benefactors waiting to snap us up and pump millions into us. In an age of obscene money spent by the 'big boys' and the likes of Man City getting in on the party it all feels very wrong. Sadly Palace are not alone. Portsmouth look like treading a very similar path, West Ham have a very unclear future despite being back in English hands and even some of the 'big boys' like Liverpool and Man Ure have outrageous levels of debt leveraged against them. Seems like time that the FA made some serious decisions about the future of English football and if they can't then they should allow UEFA to step in and show some balls on their behalf. The nonsense has to stop!
I guess our starlets like Victor Moses & Sean Scannell will now be sold on the cheap rather than for their real value as the vultures circle. The season is now in tatters as Palace have dropped from 37 points and knocking on the door of the play-offs to 27 points, 5th from bottom just 3 points above the relegation zone and will be playing for their lives for the rest of the season to avoid the abyss of League One.
Full story here: Crystal Palace future uncertain as administrators called in to Selhurst Park
Sadly, Ron Noades is also sticking his oar in and Palace really doesn't need that idiot back in the hot seat!

We are deeply saddened by the news that Dr. Amy Williamsen passed away suddenly on April 22, 2019. Amy was a beloved faculty member in our UA Department of Spanish and Portuguese for 22 years who also served in the role of Associate Department Head. A specialist in Early Modern Peninsular literature and contemporary literary theory, she was a founding member of the international association dedicated to study of women writers of Early Modern Spain and Colonial Latin America now known as GEMELA. In 2011, she became Professor Emerita of Spanish and Portuguese at UA, and that same year she moved across the country to become the inaugural head of the Department of Languages, Literatures and Cultures at the University of North Carolina, Greensboro. Amy was an exemplary scholar, teacher, leader, colleague, and friend who will be greatly missed.
Williamsen, Amy
Professor Emerita

Our history
SAM's ACADEMY was founded in 2015 under the able guidance of Ms. Vinutha Muddaveeraiah, who is an MBA, ex-banker and a trained Montessorian. It started with one branch, with a batch of 6 students. And in these four years (2015 – 2019) it has grown to 9 branches in Bengaluru city, helping around 900 women to step into a professional career with a MTT certification (Montessori Teachers Training Certification).
SAM's ACADEMY is an institution which imparts knowledge and skills in the areas of early childhood education. Prepares women for a life -changing career in the field of Early Education.
We at SAM'S use tested and proven techniques to equip mothers with a lot of teaching techniques to prepare children for a bright future.

We absorb candidates interested in training jobs by grooming them and helping them to become trainers themselves. We also help women interested in exploring entrepreneurship skills by guiding them through our franchisee option model.
The spirit behind an enterprise, is what gives it strength and momentum. And, this spirit carried it beyond Montessori Teacher Training to train the country's young generation to explore a career in Banking and Finance space, thus giving birth to SAM's Banking and Finance Academy.
SAM's BANKING AND FINANCE ACADEMY was started this year (2019) under the guidance of well experienced retired Bankers. This was started, keeping in mind the skills required by young graduates/post-graduates to fulfill their aspirations to get into the promising financial field, that includes Banking, insurance, securities and mutual funds. This program has been started with a promise to "Train Until You Get Placed", for the trainees.
This course prepares the students with the right skills and knowledge, taking them through the nuances of the country's Financial Industry. The course is specially designed to take them through various financial inputs, starting from the Evolution of Money and Banking, Regulatory bodies like the RBI, SEBI, IRDAI etcetera. Also, aims at building communication skills, selling skills and basic digital skills.
Currently, we are in talks with financial institutions, to tie -up with them for meeting their manpower needs with provision of skilled personnel.
We grew organically, adding one small step each year. And now, it is a pleasure for us to share the learning journey, from a small space to Branch Number 9. We take pride in providing well equipped and beautiful learning environment to trainees

Jacobs Holdings se diversifie dans le groupage européen
Jacobs Holdings, la société mère d'entre autres Dart Line, a repris la société britannique de transport Horizon Holdings. Avec cette reprise Jacobs vise à se diversifier de plus en plus en construisant un service de groupage et de transport européen, à côté de la spécialisation existante du groupe dans le secteur automobile. Il est sûr que Dart Lines sera le premier à profiter de ces activités. Wayne Denton, le responsable chez Jacobs de cette opération, estime que le trafic Benelux d'ici 1999 sera bon pour une cargaison supplémentaire de 20 à 30 semi-remorques par semaine.
Inquiétude et consternation après la hausse de tarifs de TRW
La société belge de transport combiné TRW a diffusé lundi par fax un communiqué à sa clientèle dans lequel elle annonce qu'elle se voit contrainte de pratiquer une adaptation des tarifs sur certains axes. Certains transporteurs ont calculé que sur les axes Italie, France et Espagne, cela revient à une hausse de 5%. Et ils disent craindre que des hausses similaires seront pratiquées "d'année en année", selon eux jusqu'en 2002. Paul Sauvillier, le nouveau patron de TRW, conteste cela: nulle part il n'est question de 5% ou d'autres augmentations pour les années à venir. Chez les transporteurs routiers utilisant le combiné, c'est l'inquiétude, voire la consternation. "Après trois années de hausses consécutives de 5 à 6%, nous espérions qu'au vu de la dégradation de la qualité de service, il y aurait une stabilisation, voir une baisse des prix", nous a déclaré l'un d'entre eux.
Chipolbrok à la recherche de nouvelles opportunités en Chine
Intéressante confrontation que celle survenue récemment à Shanghai entre la direction de l'armement sino-polonais Chipolbrok et la délégation maritime et portuaire anversoise de passage dans ses bureaux, d'autant plus que l'armement est depuis sa création un fidèle client du port scaldien. L'entreprise, au fil des années a pris un caractère assez particulier en ce sens que si elle maintient un service de ligne mixte axé sur le conventionnel/breakbulk et les containers entre l'Europe du Nord et l'Asie du Sud-Est, essentiellement la Chine, elle s'est diversifiée dans ce dernier pays en abordant les secteurs de l'agence maritime, de l'expédition avec entreposage et de l'immobilier.
Grève diversement suivie dans les ports français
Comme annoncé (LL. du 24.11.98), l'appel à la grève lancé par la Fédération nationale des ports & docks (FNPD-CGT) a effectivement perturbé le fonctionnement des ports français durant la journée du lundi 23 novembre. Néanmoins, d'un port à l'autre, le mouvement a été très diversement suivi.

Setchell in surprise departure
P&O Australia yesterday announced that Richard Setchell, the managing director of P&O Ports, has decided to take early retirement and will be succeeded by Douglas Anderson.
Mr Anderson is at present P&O Australia's deputy managing director and finance director.
In addition, Jo Curin will join P&O Australia as finance director.
Captain Setchell will give up his full time executive responsibilities in January.
He will stay on the board of P&O Australia as non-executive director and continue as a director of several of P&O Australia's international port companies.
New tensions at CTAL
Cargo handling at the Container Terminals Australia Ltd facility at Botany Bay was disrupted yesterday when waterfront workers, members of the Maritime Union of Australia, walked off the job for just under three hours.
The workers were protesting at the alleged harassment of a colleague, a union delegate, who was dismissed this month.
It is understood the dismissal was made with the approval of P&O Ports management, but was later overturned following intervention at a higher level and the dismissed worker was reinstated.
Industry sources went so far as to suggest yesterday that this intervention might have precipitated the senior management changes at P&O Ports announced yesterday.
Qantas UK freight move delayed
Qantas will not be able to take advantage of British Airways' much-heralded $650 million World Cargo Centre at Heathrow -- which is due to open in January -- until at least 2000, Qantas Freight revealed yesterday.
In a blow to Qantas Freight and its customers on the "kangaroo" route, Qantas Freight group general manager Peter Frampton said all of its cargo handling operations would soon be temporarily transferred to an alternative cargo handler instead of the new BA Cargo Centre.
$2 billion saving in rail revival, says ARA
THE dramatic transformation of Australia's railways into a "dynamic and profitable" transport industry over the past decade has saved taxpayers nearly $2 billion, according to rail lobby group Australasian Railway Association.
"The days of railways losing money on their freight operations are over," ARA executive director John Kirk said. "There is no net cost to taxpayers from Australian government rail freight operations and the cost of operating rail passenger services has been reduced."
According to ARA research, from a rail deficit of $2.4 billion in the late 1980s, the rail deficit has been reduced by 75 per cent to $800 million per year -- the cash operating payment for rail passenger services.

U.S. To China: No Delay on Bugs
The United States reportedly told China it will not extend a Dec. 17 deadline that could affect billions of dollars of trade. As reported in Maritime Week, on Sept. 18, USDA published an "interim rule" aimed at preventing the Asian longhorned beetle from entering the United States in solid wood packing material (SWPM) from China. The pest, which has no natural predators in the United States, poses a serious threat to U.S. forests. Shipments leaving China as of Dec 17 will be required to have a Chinese government certificate stating that the SWPM was heat treated, fumigated or treated with preservatives to kill the Asian longhorned beetle.
Brent Spar To Be Dismantled

The hunt is on
The wood stove in the camp's main room is almost always hot. In my younger years, whenever we were out there, one of the grownups would holler at us to pay attention to it so we didn't burn ourselves. The hollering didn't always work.
My family camp has been around for decades. I couldn't tell you how long. It's nestled in the woods off M-35 near a small creek, closer to Princeton and Gwinn than to Palmer. We used to have family gatherings there, like when we would blow stuff up with colorful fireworks during the 4th of July and eat sub sandwiches or pasties, smoked fish and juustoa. But we don't have big get-togethers there so much anymore, opting instead for places with more modern conveniences, like tap water and a toilet that flushes.
But still, every year come mid-November, when the leaves on the branches are few and the snow flurries begin to swarm, the men in the family head to camp. Rather than get their meat secondhand, like from a butcher or off the grocery store shelves, many people feel the need to harvest their own. I don't condemn hunting, it's just not for me. I don't like the iron smell of blood and the sadness that comes with killing. But I do like the taste of venison, so I'll let the others do my killing for me.
It's deer season all over again. We're in the thick of it now. I know there are women out there in the world who hunt, but they don't come to my camp. It's all beer bellies, beards and B.S.-ing out there.
"What happens at deer camp, stays at deer camp," is the motto, so I can't tell you any of those fine details. It's kind of like Las Vegas in that there's drinking and gambling, but without all the flashing lights and sex appeal.
I made an overnight stop at beer camp for opening weekend this year. I don't hunt, but I enjoy a few beverages and catching up with the guys.
There's no electricity or plumbing. The only light comes from a gas-fed lantern hanging above the main room. The camp isn't glamorous like the hotels of Vegas. And as far as what really goes on at camp, I'm sworn to secrecy, a pact I made years ago as a child, naive to the sorts of shenanigans that could occur when a group of drunken men gather in an isolated place for too long. But of course, there aren't any shenanigans to share. We are always well behaved.
The camp, a few outbuildings, an outhouse, sauna and woodshed make up the grounds. There's a little swing set with a slide, horseshoes and a bocce ball court for outdoor entertainment. Inside, it's typically card games and BS.
From the enclosed porch area is the main room, which doubles as the kitchen and living room. A couch and a couple recliners line the walls, with the kitchen counter and a range on another. In the center is a kitchen table. Deer antlers hang on the walls above, overlooking the hunters below who took the trophies in seasons past.
In what would be the front end of the camp are two rooms, each with two sets of bunk beds and a cot in one, and upstairs is a loft that seems hotter than the wood stove itself. If you want a sweaty night's sleep, that's the place to go. You can skip the sauna and spend an hour up there instead. You'll sweat out about the same amount of toxins.
Generally, from my recollections, the only thing thicker than the smoke wafting in the camp air is the slew of curse words being slung from the mouths of men. But that's to be expected.
At camp, life tends to revert back to a more primitive, primal state – foul language included. I think that's what I like most about going out there. Not the dirty words, but that fact that you can unplug, so to speak, and put away the television and cell phones for a while and live more in the moment with what's immediately in front of you.
The quiet solitude of a deer blind, or the outhouse, hearken back to simpler days, when hunter gatherers had to spend hours foraging enough food to feed the family, instead of taking a quick trip to the drive-through restaurant. It makes me think of when I was a kid rambling through the woods in my boots after a fresh snowfall. I didn't have a care in the world. I could have stayed out till nighttime walking under the stars, my heart thumping from climbing through the brush and over the hardwood hills, and probably beating a little faster from the coyotes yipping and howling off in the distance.
It was simple and good.
Deer season, from my perspective, is an opportunity to enjoy something similar to that, something simple. It's a chance to connect with friends and family, and also with nature.
As far as enjoying the thrill of the hunt and whatnot, I get the same feeling when I see deli ham on sale at the meat counter, so I think I'll stick to hunting for bargains at the grocery store.

It imposes criminal penalties—a fine, a prison term, or both—on a violator.

Can you tell that Minerva is his adopted Mom? They have been chewing up the blankets this winter and Rex seems to think that all the toys belong right next to Mom's butt. I have a cartoon almost ready for Monday for the comic strip - tune back then and see it :)
Rex loves! He ate several of the pretzels as a puppy and now carries his dumb-bell toy everywhere as his 'happy thing'. The Kongs are the very best - they bounce and can be carried and dropped down the stairs to great effect. If you have an aggressive nervous chewer the Kongs are really the best thing ever!

Lucky Ned Pepper: What is your intention, Rooster?
Rooster Cogburn: I mean to kill you in one minute, Ned. Or see you hanged in Fort Smith at Judge Parker's convenience. Which will you have?
Lucky Ned Pepper: I call that bold talk for a one-eyed fat man!
Rooster Cogburn: Fill your hand you son-of-a-bitch!
When installing a barrel you should use aeroshell 33ms on the barrel extension, receiver threads, and barrel nut. Should slide right in, if not the above posted method is a good one.
Go to your local hardware store and get a heat gun
^^^ Agreed, heat gun on low and wood dowel from the inside is the trick.
Good afternoon. I've been trying to get a hold of you through Beth in reference to my HK Barrel work that I sent to you back in August. Do you happen to to have an estimated completion date? I'm in no rush but would just like to know.
Much thanks
Do y'all have anymore 10.4" SOCOM profile barrels still available?

Well, that was easy
I've been putting off doing laundry since I arrived in Mexico City ten days ago. I packed relatively light for this trip, expecting to find a nearby laundromat where I could wash a small load of clothes every five or six days, perhaps while doing my homework or writing a blog post on my phone. After arriving, though, I discovered there are few coin-operated laundromats in this city, and none nearby. The only way to get laundry done in this barrio is to drop it off somewhere.
The idea that someone else will be doing my laundry for me for the duration of my stay should seem like a good thing. However, I've been told the turnaround time at some of the local laundry services can be ridiculously long. One of my housemates was quoted as much as five days at one place. I only brought about a week's worth of clothing to Mexico.
Today I finally took my dirty clothes — most of which had been worn several times now and were getting pretty ripe — to the nearest laundry service, probably not a hundred yards from the front door of the building I'm staying in. The woman took my laundry bag, weighed it, asked my name, and gave me a ticket with the weight and price. Pretty easy.
The woman said it'll be ready tomorrow. We'll see.
Assuming all goes well, I'll try to get on a schedule of dropping off a smaller load of laundry twice a week rather than a bigger load of laundry once a week. I don't want to get down to my last day of clothing and be told I have to wait five days for fresh laundry.
