Previously noted at JIML13 (2007) 83; JIML13 (2007) 13 226. Facts On 27 July 2003 theTasman Spirit, a tanker laden with 67,537 tonnes of light crude oil, grounded at or near to the approaches to the port of Karachi and later broke into two causing a major pollution incident.On 30 July 2003 international salvors,Tsavliris, entered into a LOF 2000 Form and engaged a number of craft under sub-contract to assist it in the salvage operations.One such vessel was the Sea Angel, a small tanker, which was to act as a shuttle tanker carrying oil from theTasman Spirit to a storage tanker also sub-contracted byTsavliris.Two tugs had also been hired. The Sea Angel was chartered on 25 August 2003 from Global at US$13,000.00 per day.The vessel was chartered for `Up to 20 . days in charterer's option. for transhipment(s) of crude oil from the forward and aft sections of crude oil tanker Tasman Spirit presently lying aground Keamari channel near Karachi, Pakistan . .'. She was delivered into service on 26 August 2003 and therefore the latest redelivery date was15 September 2003.The charter was encapsulated in a fixture recap telex and otherwise incorporated the terms of the Shelltime 4 form. On 9 September after her final transhipment voyage Tsavliris gave three days definite notice of redelivery at Fujairah, the delivery port, which was three days steaming away. It was anticipated that the Sea Angel would leave Karachi that day, which she did not. The Karachi Port Trust (KPT) refused to grant the Sea Angel a `No Demand Certificate' (NDC), a prerequisite to port clearance, and therefore the vessel was unable to leave.The primary purpose of a NDC was to ensure that all port dues were paid before a vessel was allowed to leave, but in the instant case the concerns of the KPTwere much wider.The KPTwas claiming about US$11million as payment or a guarantee of pollution and clear-up expenses or damages. Pakistan was not a party to the CLC1969 and1992 Protocol and therefore the KPT, taking the support of the strong national and local concern about the incident, sought to obtain security of those vessels and assets within the jurisdiction of Pakistan. This led to discussions between KPT, Tsavliris and the legal representatives and P&I Club (American Club) of the Tasman Spirit. The negotiations failed notwithstanding that Tsavliris paid a deposit of R3,375,000 and was prepared to pay a further deposit of R25.5 million, a sum well beyond its own obligation to pay port dues in respect of all of its vessels.ThereafterTsavliris and Global commenced litigation against KPTseeking to obtain the release of the vessel and, notwithstanding that judgments were obtained in their favour, KPT continued to resist the release of the vessel.The American Club also negotiated an agreement for the release of the Sea Angel but again she was not released. It was only after Global issued a motion to commit KPT's senior officers for contempt that theTsavliris vessels, including the Sea Angel, were released. The Sea Angel was released on 26 December 2003 and redelivered on1January 2004. She had been unlawfully detained from 9 September 2003 to 26 December 2004, a period of108 days and at a time THE JOURNALOF INTERNATIONAL MARITIME LAW PUBLISHEDBY LAWTEXT PUBLISHINGLIMITED WWW.LAWTEXT.COM ANALYSIS AND COMMENT:THE SEA ANGEL : (2007) 13 JIML 389 when the unexpired period of the charter was 6 days. Tsavliris had stopped paying hire on 18 September 2003 when no sign of agreement was in sight. Issues and decision Global claimed US$1,373,320 as hire due under the charterparty from 18 September 2003, when Tsavliris ceased paying hire, and the vessel's redelivery on1January 2004. Tsavliris denied that any hire was owing, alleging that the charterparty had been frustrated. The defence was essentially run by the American Club because even if the charterparty was not frustrated the hire was recoverable under the SCOPIC agreement in the LOF 2000 contract. But if the charterparty could be shown to have been frustrated the obligations of the Club under the SCOPIC clause also disappeared. Global submitted that the charterparty had not been frustrated. The detention of the salvor's equipment was a known risk and what had happened was a foreseeable, if not foreseen, risk. The risk had been assumed byTsavliris under the terms of the charter or it was otherwise a risk that fell within their sphere of responsibility. The judge at firstinstance held that the charterparty had notbeen frustrated and the appeal from this decision was dismissed by the Court of Appeal. Commentary Introduction The crucial issue was whether the delay of 108 days towards the end of a short 20 day time charterparty caused by the unlawful detention of the vessel by port authorities, in a salvage context, had frustrated the contract. If the contract had been frustrated then the precise date of frustration was probably 17 October, the date by which the parties must have realised that there was no prospect of agreement and no progress was likely to be made without litigation. There would be frustration on this date if the delay already experienced and the future delay reasonably to be expected could be interpreted as having frustrated and therefore terminated the charter. Concept of frustration The precise kind of frustration in issue was that brought about by changed circumstances so that performance of the contract becomes something radically different from that originally contemplated by the parties. One of the classical formulations of this aspect of the law is that of Lord Radcliffe in Davis Contractors Ltd v Fareham Urban District Council [1956] AC 696, 729, who said: . frustration occurs whenever the law recognises that without fault of either party a contractual obligation has become incapable of being performed because the circumstances in which performance is called for would render it a thing radically different from that which was undertaken by the contract. Non haecin foedera veni. It was not this that I promised to do. There are many judicial dicta to similar effect which also emphasise that the object and basis of the principle is to give effect to the demands of justice. In the changed circumstances it is just that a contractor should be released from the literal performance of his contractual obligations. In Hirji Mulji v CheongYue Steamship Co Ltd [1926] AC 497, 510, Lord Sumner explained the rationale of the concept in the following terms: `It is really a device by which the rules as to absolute contracts are reconciled with a special exception which justice demands . .'. It has also been emphasised that the courts in their quest to administer justice are not constrained by any rigid legal framework. In the words of Lord Wright in Cricklewood Property and Investment Trust Ltd v Leighton's Investment Trust Ltd [1945] AC 221, 241,`the doctrine of frustration is modern and flexible and is not subject to being constricted by an arbitrary formula'. Delay as a source of frustration It is established that delay in the performance of a contractual obligation may amount to frustration provided the prerequisites of the conceptcan be established.Itmust be shown that the past delay and THE JOURNALOF INTERNATIONAL MARITIME LAW PUBLISHEDBY LAWTEXT PUBLISHINGLIMITED WWW.LAWTEXT.COM 390 (2007) 13 JIML :THE SEA ANGEL : ANALYSIS AND COMMENT the prospective delay that may be reasonably anticipated will render any future performance of the contractual obligation radically different from that which was undertaken under the contract (The Nema [1981] 2 Lloyd's Rep 239 (HL); [1982] AC 724).This is a very difficult test to apply to the facts of any case and when reviewing a disputed assertion of frustration the court places itself in the shoes of the assertor and endeavours to arrive at an informed judgment on the basis of an objective assessment of the impact of the delay that has already occurred and which may reasonably be prospectively anticipated (Bank Line Ltd v Arthur Capel & Co [1919] AC 435). The question is essentially one of fact and degree to be answered by the tribunal of fact. An appeal will only succeed if it can be shown that the tribunal of fact made an error of law. It has been said in the context of delay in the performance of a charterparty that regard must be had to the probable length of the total deprivation of use of the vessel as compared with the unexpired duration of the charterparty (Anglo-NorthernTrading Co Ltd v Emlyn Jones & Williams [1917] 2 KB 78, 84, per Bailhache J).This may be a significant factual consideration but it is not of itself a conclusive determinant of frustration; it may not even be the main consideration and it is certainly not the only factual consideration (Bank Line p 454, per Lord Sumner). Foreseen and foreseeable contingencies and frustration This association is again not crystal clear; it may be a question of degree. If a charterparty expressly anticipates a contingency and what is to occur upon its occurrence, the doctrine is excluded (The Safeer [1994] 1 Lloyd's Rep 637). But a contingency may be provided for in a charterparty in terms that suggest that the doctrine of frustration is not excluded.

  • Volume 6, Number 1
    The Road Not Taken: a Journal of Formal Poetry Winter 2012 • Winter Issue TO OUR READERS: as I'm sure you're all aware, it's about time for the spring issue. However, due to technical issues with this website, we're are going to have to rebuild entirely from the ground up. This will happen in May. With the new website will come the Spring issue. And it will happen at this URL, so please be patient with us. Welcome to our Winter 2012 Issue. This is my first issue in the wake of the passing of Lee, but I will honor his tradition and begin with a tribute to a formal poet from the past of surpassing virtue. I would like to introduce our readers to a little-known Welsh poet, Huw Menai. "Huw", for those of you who are not Welsh speakers, is pronounced like the English "Hugh". "Menai" was his pen name. His real name was Huw Menai Williams. He was a Welsh miner through the early Twentieth Century. Despite this life lived underground, he produced a large volume of poetry, much of it on spare bits of mining company paper. At the rate he was producing, of course it wasn't all going to be stellar. But he did produce some real gems. His four volumes of poetry sold modestly through the mid fifties into the early sixties and then went out of print. I think my collection of his work is perhaps the only complete one in the United States. I will give you my favorite below.

  • Archons (Commanders) [NOTICE: They Are NOT Anlien Parasites], and Then, in a Mirror Image of the Great Emanations of the Pleroma, Hundreds of Lesser Angels
    A R C H O N S HIDDEN RULERS THROUGH THE AGES A R C H O N S HIDDEN RULERS THROUGH THE AGES WATCH THIS IMPORTANT VIDEO UFOs, Aliens, and the Question of Contact MUST-SEE THE OCCULT REASON FOR PSYCHOPATHY Organic Portals: Aliens and Psychopaths KNOWLEDGE THROUGH GNOSIS Boris Mouravieff - GNOSIS IN THE BEGINNING ...1 The Gnostic core belief was a strong dualism: that the world of matter was deadening and inferior to a remote nonphysical home, to which an interior divine spark in most humans aspired to return after death. This led them to an absorption with the Jewish creation myths in Genesis, which they obsessively reinterpreted to formulate allegorical explanations of how humans ended up trapped in the world of matter. The basic Gnostic story, which varied in details from teacher to teacher, was this: In the beginning there was an unknowable, immaterial, and invisible God, sometimes called the Father of All and sometimes by other names. “He” was neither male nor female, and was composed of an implicitly finite amount of a living nonphysical substance. Surrounding this God was a great empty region called the Pleroma (the fullness). Beyond the Pleroma lay empty space. The God acted to fill the Pleroma through a series of emanations, a squeezing off of small portions of his/its nonphysical energetic divine material. In most accounts there are thirty emanations in fifteen complementary pairs, each getting slightly less of the divine material and therefore being slightly weaker. The emanations are called Aeons (eternities) and are mostly named personifications in Greek of abstract ideas.

  • Ways to Be Worse Off
    WAYS TO BE WORSE OFF Ian Stoner Abstract: Does disability make a person worse off? I argue that the best answer is yes and no, because we can be worse off in two conceptually distinct ways. Disabil- ities usually make us worse off in one way (typified by facing hassles) but not in the other (typified by facing lone- liness). Acknowledging two conceptually distinct ways to be worse off has fundamental implications for philosophi- cal theories of well-being. A central question in the philosophy of disability concerns the implications of disability for well-being. The question is of obvious relevance to several controversies in bioethics; positions concerning the permissibility of pre- natal screening for the purposes of positive or negative selection and the appropriate allocation of scarce health-care resources turn, in large part, on whether disabilities are a form of value-neutral diversity (mere difference) or a regrettable, harmed condition (bad difference). Perhaps it is because the practical implications of the mere-difference/bad- difference debate are so significant that philosophers have given little atten- tion to that debate’s theoretical implications. Those implications are also significant. In fact, clarifying a conceptual confusion at the heart of the mere-difference/bad-difference debate yields a fundamental challenge to the entire project of theorizing well-being. Thus, I have two goals in this paper. First, I engage the mere-difference/ bad-difference debate by attending to the pre-theoretic concept of well- being. I argue that there is no unified concept of well-being, rather a graft of two distinct sub-concepts.

    Radiant Beings: Narratives of Contamination and Mutation in Literatures of the Anthropocene Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Kristin Michelle Ferebee Graduate Program in English The Ohio State University 2019 Dissertation Committee Dr. Thomas S. Davis, Advisor Dr. Jared Gardner Dr. Brian McHale Dr. Rebekah Sheldon 1 Copyrighted by Kristin Michelle Ferebee 2019 2 Abstract The Anthropocene era— a term put forward to differentiate the timespan in which human activity has left a geological mark on the Earth, and which is most often now applied to what J.R. McNeill labels the post-1945 “Great Acceleration”— has seen a proliferation of narratives that center around questions of radioactive, toxic, and other bodily contamination and this contamination’s potential effects. Across literature, memoir, comics, television, and film, these narratives play out the cultural anxieties of a world that is itself increasingly figured as contaminated. In this dissertation, I read examples of these narratives as suggesting that behind these anxieties lies a more central anxiety concerning the sustainability of Western liberal humanism and its foundational human figure. Without celebrating contamination, I argue that the very concept of what it means to be “contaminated” must be rethought, as representations of the contaminated body shape and shaped by a nervous policing of what counts as “human.” To this end, I offer a strategy of posthuman/ist reading that draws on new materialist approaches from the Environmental Humanities, and mobilize this strategy to highlight the ways in which narratives of contamination from Marvel Comics to memoir are already rejecting the problematic ideology of the human and envisioning what might come next.
