MOUNTAIN VIEW— A California researcher says that fireball seen streaking across Western skies last week was a flaming comet.
The brilliant streak of light was spotted across a wide swath of the West from Reno to San Francisco before dawn on Jan. 17. The New York-based American Meteor Society received reports from about 50 people in California and Nevada who saw the bright light.
Seti Institute scientist Peter Jenniskens tells the San Francisco Chronicle (http://bit.ly/UjMKo1 ) the flash of light was a small comet that flamed out when it hit the Earth"s atmosphere.
The Mountain View researcher says the comet instantly turned to dust and gas, resulting in the flash of light. One witness described it as resembling a giant orange crayon.
No pieces fell to Earth.

Temporary tablespaces in RAC
Posted by Riyaj Shamsudeen on February 13, 2012
Temporary tablespaces are shared objects and they are associated to an user or whole database (using default temporary tablespace). So, in RAC, temporary tablespaces are shared between the instances. Many temporary tablespaces can be created in a database, but all of those temporary tablespaces are shared between the instances. Hence, temporary tablespaces must be allocated in shared storage or ASM. We will explore the space allocation in temporary tablespace in RAC, in this blog entry.
In contrast, UNDO tablespaces are owned by an instance and all transactions from that instance is exclusively allocated in that UNDO tablespace. Remember that other instances can read blocks from remote undo tablespace, and so, undo tablespaces also must be allocated from shared storage or ASM.
Space allocation in TEMP tablespace
TEMP tablespaces are divided in to extents (In 11.2, extent size is 1M, not sure whether the size of an extent is controllable or not). These extent maps are cached in local SGA, essentially, soft reserving those extents for the use of sessions connecting to that instance. But, note that, extents in a temporary tablespace are not cached at instance startup, instead instance caches the extents as the need arises. We will explore this with a small example:
This database has two instances and a TEMP tablespace. TEMP tablespace has two temp files, 300M each.
Listing 1-1: dba_temp_files 1* select file_name, bytes/1024/1024 sz_in_mb from dba_temp_files SYS@solrac1:1>/ FILE_NAME SZ_IN_MB ------------------------------------------------------------ ---------- +DATA/solrac/tempfile/temp.266.731449235 300 +DATA/solrac/tempfile/temp.448.775136163 300
Initially, no extents were cached, and no extents were in use as shown from the output of gv$temp_extent_pool view in Listing 1-2.
Listing 1-2: Initial view of temp extents select inst_id, file_id, extents_cached, extents_used from gv$temp_extent_pool order by 1,2; INST_ID FILE_ID EXTENTS_CACHED EXTENTS_USED ---------- ---------- -------------- ------------ 1 1 0 0 1 2 0 0 2 1 0 0 2 2 0 0
We are ready to start a test case
Listing 1-3: Script in execution select inst_id, file_id, extents_cached, extents_used from gv$temp_extent_pool order by 1,2; INST_ID FILE_ID EXTENTS_CACHED EXTENTS_USED ---------- ---------- -------------- ------------ 1 1 0 0 1 2 0 0 2 1 22 22 2 2 23 23 ... / INST_ID FILE_ID EXTENTS_CACHED EXTENTS_USED ---------- ---------- -------------- ------------ 1 1 0 0 1 2 0 0 2 1 108 108 2 2 111 111
I started a small SQL script that joins multiple tables with hash join so as to induce disk based sorting. After starting the SQL script execution in instance 2, you can see that extents are cached and used in the instance 2, as shown in Listing 1-3. Initially, 45 extents were in use, few seconds later, temp tablespace usage grew to 219 extents.
Listing 1-4: script completion INST_ID FILE_ID EXTENTS_CACHED EXTENTS_USED ---------- ---------- -------------- ------------ 1 1 0 0 1 2 0 0 2 1 163 0 2 2 166 0
After the completion of the script,as shown in Listing 1-4, extents_used column is set to 0, But extents_cached is still at maximum usage level (319 extents). Meaning that, extents are cached (soft reserved) in an instance and not released (until another instance asks for it, as we see later).
You should also note that extents are equally spread between two files in that temporary tablespace. If you have more files in that temporary tablespace, then the extents will be uniformly allocated in all those temp files.
Space reallocation
Even if the cached extents are free, these extents are not available to use in other instance(s) immediately. An instance will request the owning instance to uncache the extents and then only those extents are available for use in the requesting instance. We will demonstrate this concept with the same test case, except that we will execute that test case in instance 1.
Listing 1-5: script in instance #1 execution INST_ID FILE_ID EXTENTS_CACHED EXTENTS_USED ---------- ---------- -------------- ------------ 1 1 42 42 1 2 42 42 2 1 163 0 2 2 166 0
At the start of SQL execution, instance started to reserve extents by caching them. My session was using those extents as visible from gv$temp_extent_pool. Number of extents used by the instance #1 was slowly growing.See Listing 1-5.
Listing 1-6: instance #1 stole the extents from instance #2 INST_ID FILE_ID EXTENTS_CACHED EXTENTS_USED ---------- ---------- -------------- ------------ 1 1 195 71 1 2 133 116 2 1 63 0 <-- note here 2 2 166 0
It gets interesting. Notice that 329 extents were reserved In Listing 1-5. Since my SQL script needs 329M of space in the temp tablespace, instance 1 needs to steal space from instance 2.
In Listing 1-6, Instance 1 needed more extents and so, Instance 2 uncached 100 extents as the extents_cached column went down from a value of 163 to 63 extents (third row in the output above). Essentially, in this example, instance 1 requested instance 2 to uncache the extents and instance 2 obliged and uncached 100 extents. Prior to 11g, un-caching of extents used to be at one extent per request. From 11g onwards, 100 extents are released for a single request and all 100 extents are acquired by the requesting instance. Instance 1 acquired those 100 extents, cached those extents, and then the session continued to use those temp extents.
Listing 1-7: script completion and node #1 has more extents cached. INST_ID FILE_ID EXTENTS_CACHED EXTENTS_USED ---------- ---------- -------------- ------------ 1 1 195 0 1 2 133 0 2 1 63 0 2 2 166 0
After the completion of the script execution, instance 1 did not release the extents. Cached extents are not released (extents are soft reserved )until another instance asks for those extents to be un-cached.
I also enabled sql trace in my session from instance 1 while executing the script. SQL trace file spills out the details about un-reserving of these extents.
Listing 1-8: SQL Trace ... #1: nam='enq: TS - contention' ela= 4172867 name|mode=1414725636 tablespace ID=3 dba=2 obj#=0 tim=6322835898 #2: nam='enq: SS - contention' ela= 608 name|mode=1397948417 tablespace #=3 dba=2 obj#=0 tim=6322837101 #3: nam='enq: SS - contention' ela= 414 name|mode=1397948422 tablespace #=3 dba=2 obj#=0 tim=6322837710 #4: nam='DFS lock handle' ela= 389 type|mode=1128857605 id1=14 id2=1 obj#=0 tim=6322838264 #5: nam='DFS lock handle' ela= 395 type|mode=1128857605 id1=14 id2=3 obj#=0 tim=6322838788 #6: nam='DFS lock handle' ela= 260414 type|mode=1128857605 id1=14 id2=2 obj#=0 tim=6323099335 ...
Line #1 above shows a tablespace level lock (TS enqueue) is taken on TEMP tablespace (ID=3 is ts# column in sys.ts$ table). Then SS locks were acquired on that tablespace, first with mode=1 and then with mode=6 (line #2 and #3). In Line #4, Cross Invocation Call (CIC) was used to ask remote SMON process to un-reserve the cached extents using CI type locks and DFS lock handle mechanism with lock types CI-14-1, CI-14-2, and CI-14-3.
Listing 1-9: Enqueue type select chr(bitand(&&p1,-16777216)/16777215) || chr(bitand(&&p1,16711680)/65535) type, mod(&&p1, 16) md from dual; Enter value for p1: 1397948422 TY MD -- ---------- SS 6 Enter value for p1: 1128857605 TY MD -- ---------- CI 5
From Listing 1-8, Approximately, 4.5 seconds were spent to move the cached extents from the one instance to another instance. Prior to 11g, this test case will run much longer, since the extents were un-cached 1 extent per request. Hundreds of such request would trigger tsunami of SS, CI enqueue requests leading to massive application performance issues. In 11g, Oracle Development resolved this issue by un-caching 100 extents per request.
Important points to note
- As you can see, extents are allocated from all temporary files uniformly. There are also changes to file header block during this operation. This is one of the reason, to create many temporary files in RAC. Recommendation is to create, as many files as the # of instances. If you have 24 nodes in your RAC cluster, yes, that would imply that you would have to create 24 temp files to the TEMP tablespace.
- As we saw in our test case locking contention output, having more temp tablespace might help alleviate SS enqueue contention since SS locks are at tablespace level. Essentially, more temporary tablespace means more SS enqueues, But, you will move the contention from SS locks to 'DFS lock handle' waits as Cross invocation Call is one per the instance for extents un-caching operation.
- Temporary tablespace groups is of no use since the contention will be at Cross Invocation Call. In fact, there is a potential for temporary tablespace groups to cause more issues since the free space in one temp tablespace can not be reassigned to another temp tablespace dynamically, even if they are in the same tablespace group. In theory, it is possible to have more SS, CI locking contention with temp tablespace groups.
- Probably a good approach is to assign different temporary tablespace to OLTP users and DSS users and affinitize the workload to specific instances.
Update 1: Remember that you need to understand your application workload before following my advice
Update 2 (2015 May 10): A reader asked me what to do if an instance has cached all available extents. Processes running in the other instances were encountering TEMP space errors in that database. For example below, about 450GB were cached by instance 1 and the processes running in the instance 2 were encountering error.
select inst_id, trunc(bytes_cached/1024/1024/1024,2) Gbytes_cached from gv$temp_extent_pool ; INST_ID GBYTES_CACHED ---------- ------------- 1 450.56 2 42.38
How to uncache the extents from instance 1? : Open two sessions to the database. In the first session, monitor the caching activity using the above SQL statement. In the second session, try resizing the temp file. Resizing operation triggers uncaching activity and you will notice that both instances are uncaching the temporary extents. Instances will try to uncache all extents even if your command is resizing only to 300G. After plenty of extents are uncached, you can cancel the resize operation or you can resize the temp file back to original size.
alter database tempfile '+DATA/c/tempfile/temp.304.828993879' resize 300G;

I'm a long time reader and I appreciate you blogging about very interesting and helpful topics. I got benefited numerous times (including this article) to resolve my issues. Great thing is you put efforts to explain the root cause with full details — this is much much more beneficial as it improves my overall understanding of database functionality.
Keep up the great work!

You can uncache extents manually using
ALTER SESSION SET events 'immediate trace name drop_segments level tablespace_number+1';

The Pro Game: The Age vs. Beauty Bowl
Remember the way it used to be with the Ravens?
Remember how they'd line up and club you to death with that defense, breaking up ball carriers and heisting interceptions and hanging thick chains around the scoreboard? Raw, medieval football. It wasn't that long ago.
Think back to 2008 Baltimore, how tight in the fist they were, allowing barely 15 points a game and not tolerating a single 100-yard rusher.
Or '09, when they went berserk against the run again - only 3.4 yards per carry allowed, the least in football. Or even last year, when they switched things up and directed their venom at the quarterback and became the top sacking club in the AFC.
It's not that way anymore. The Ravens don't chase those fancy defensive stats around. They commit un-fancy ones now, sometimes, like 400-plus yards to the Eagles and Cowboys and Texans - and to the Colts and Pats in the recent playoffs. At times they appear quite sturdy and other times they're barely hanging on.
But this defense is in the Super Bowl, and none of those recent hell-raiser versions ever made it. And they can thank an offense that has discovered the deep ball and a quarterback that's as poised and relaxed as anyone's ever seen him. The only question remaining is, can the formula hold up for one more night down in New Orleans?
On the other sideline are the 49ers, back in the title picture for the first time since the 1994 season and flaunting the most complete roster in the league. Think back to early September, and the preseason questions were Alex Smith and Randy Moss and Brandon Jacobs and Teddy Ginn and maybe LaMichael James, the rookie speedback from Oregon. All offensive people. How much could Jim Harbaugh squeeze out of them? Enough to lift 'Frisco, already a firm defensive club, to the tip-top of the NFC?
Turns out, Harbaugh didn't need them to get there, with the exception of Smith, who held the QB job for the first nine weeks. Smith was plunking along at a clean 70.2 percent completion rate till Harbaugh found himself yawning once too often and yanked the fire alarm - a sudden November switch to Colin Kaepernick.
Since then Kaepernick's been about a 62 percent passer, but he put 32 on the board against Chicago and 41 at New England, then 45 on the Packers in the first round of the playoffs. He's turned the Niners into the most electric offense in football, and any coach will exchange that for an 8 percent dropoff in completion rate.
You had to appreciate the way Kaepernick kept it together in the first half of the NFC championship, when the TV graphic showed Atlanta with 200-plus yards of offense and the Niners with minus-two. Suddenly he begins taking them down the field … run by Gore … throw to Vernon Davis … run by James, etc. No sweat, brother, here we come.
The big Atlanta lead was peeling away and everyone knew it. The Niners were seizing control. The scene reminded me of a quote from one of those old 49ers, Dwight Clark or somebody, about how it was when you got into some basketball one-on-one with Joe Montana.
"Joe toys with you. He lets you score early and get ahead, just so he can come back and beat you."
The NFC title felt a lot like that, the Niners lolling around for a while, down 17-0, checking out the girls in the park, then finally taking the ball and getting serious about things.
Too bad there isn't some recent Ravens-49ers footage to look at, although I guess to some degree their 2011 meeting is recent enough. That was a 16-6 win for Baltimore, and on that night the Ravens really crowded the line and choked off the Niner attack (170 total yards) and sacked poor Alex Smith to pieces (nine times). Jim Harbaugh explained all the sacking this way:
"Probably three of them we got beat on a protection call. [We] rolled the dice with protection, and they had a better blitz than what we called. Three other times we physically got beat. The other ones were where Alex Smith could've gotten the ball out quicker."
OLT Joe Staley gave the big picture summation. "We had a bad day on the offensive line."
But you can throw the sacking angle out now because it's Kaepernick, not Smith, running the offense, and if you guess wrong in pressuring Kaepernick he'll break you for 25 or 30 or 50 with his legs. Ask the Packers, once they get off the iron lung, what it was like chasing him around Candlestick in their playoff a few weeks back.
If the Ravens are going to win, I don't think it's going to be with their offense. If the 49ers' scoring pushes into the high 20s or 30s, I don't see the Flacco attack being right there with them, slash for slash, in a last-man-with-the-ball thing. I guess the cliché term is shootout, and the Ravens don't want any part of one.
Although Baltimore's offense has been sizzling since the second half of the Indy playoff, when the Flacco-to-Boldin connection suddenly got recharged, deep down the Raven DNA calls for patience and balance. They like the clock. They like Pitta on those eight-yard curls. They like Ray Rice and Bernie Pierce mashing inside the tackles. They like steam coming off the chests of enemy defensive linemen.
They've had a big crush on the deep ball in this postseason, Flacco casting it way down the middle of the field, but that's an easy temptation against flimsy backfields like Indy's and New England's - or overrated ones like the Broncos'. San Fran's secondary won't let that happen. The 49ers' cover people - Rogers, Brown, Whitner, Goldson - aren't flimsy.
No, Super XLVII will be decided on how high the Ravens can rise up on defense, how sturdy and quick to the punch they are. They'll try to mangle Kaepernick if they catch him. They'll throw him into the benches and take the flag if they have to, just to slow down the game and deliver a message.
Can they keep their defensive legs under them for an entire game? They'll have to - to survive. Because the 49ers are quicker. And faster. And younger.
I'll take youth and speed over grit and the bomb, and that's why San Francisco, a very old ghost from the past, is the pick. Call it 27-16.

CSI: Can Finlay Finally Crack the Case That Got Her Fired?
It's been a little less than a year since Elisabeth Shue joined the cast of CSI, and the actress is thrilled to finally get a few more answers about Julie Finlay's past.
CSI and CSI: NY staging two-part crossover
On Wednesday's episode (10/9c, CBS), the CSIs uncover a mass grave in the desert. One of the victims is wearing a necklace that Finlay remembers very well from a case she worked in Seattle. In fact, it's the case that got her fired.
"I was glad to get to explore the emotion of why she got fired and why it was such a traumatic experience," Shue tells TVGuide.com "This is the one case for her that really got under her skin and the stakes are so much higher."
During the original murder investigation, Finlay liked Tom Cooley (guest star Dylan Walsh) for the murders, but she was fired (and sued) for trying to illegally collect a DNA sample from him. When she finds evidence that again implicates Cooley in the murders of the victims in the Las Vegas grave, she heads straight back to Seattle.

"It's a case that forces her once again to blur the boundaries of what's appropriate and what's not," Shue says. "She gets in trouble again for the very same issues which got her fired in the first place. I love that about her. She's so headstrong. She's not somebody who will necessarily learn from her mistakes.
"I've always thought of her as somewhat immature. She's childlike in her approach to life," Shue continues. "She's very present and she follows her instincts and sometimes doesn't have that adult side coming in and telling her when something's right and when it's wrong. She enjoys getting people to react to her. You know when kids get under your skin and make you angry, but you look down and they're happy? They've gotten you to react. I think there's a part of her that will always be approaching life from that childlike [place]."
But that attitude has taken a toll on Finlay's personal relationships. A serial cop dater, Finn was once married in Seattle. During her return visit, D.B. Russell (Ted Danson) calls on Finn's ex (Cougar Town's Brian Van Holt) to keep her in line during the investigation — and they reconnect in more ways than one. "I liked that there was something unresolved between them," Shue says. "Their relationship was one that had a lot of passion involved, but I think Finn got out of the relationship selfishly."

So might there be a rekindling? Not so fast. "I don't think she's capable of having a real adult relationship," Shue says. "She tries to sabotage relationships when there are stakes or when she has to be a responsible partner. That would be a lot of pressure on her and her personality would want to run from something that was that stable. I can't imagine her having a relationship that works."
Shue says that's precisely why her complicated relationship with D.B. works. "It's safe," Shue says of the boss-employee relationship. "There's no possibility of them being together, so she's comfortable in that relationship. She trusts him and she is the best she is when she is with him."
As Finn gets deeper into the investigation, she once again oversteps her boundaries and faces even more disastrous consequences than the last go-round. Which begs the question: Will she ever go too far? "I don't think she's completely reckless or insane... but I like that that's a question," Shue says. "Who knows what it would be that could put her over the edge. There could be something."
Chris Evert, Lindsay Davenport to guest-star on CSI
Or could it be that revisiting this one particular case will finally help Finlay to move on? "I think it does change her a little bit," Shue says. "It does calm her a little bit and gives her a sense of confidence and a sense closure. But I don't want her to become a different character. I still like that she's a volatile character who is able to go off the deep end at any moment. It's more fun to play her that way. But at the same time, it's good when characters go through cycles. It's like life: You don't really fully change. But you do grow slowly."
CSI airs Wednesdays at 10/9c on CBS.

Hooray for the John Birch Society and the National Rifle Association (NRA) for demanding that our school teachers be armed to protect our children by using their constitutional gun rights and armed guards. If the teachers had been routinely armed in the past decades, it's obvious that the killings and the casualties would have been reduced by at least 90 percent.
However, our leaders and the police wouldn't allow our teachers to be armed and by doing so they have directly violated our Constitution that they have sworn to uphold and facilitated the horrible death and destruction. They should be investigated and prosecuted for such acts against our children. We should support the John Birch Society and the NRA in their efforts to arm our teachers and protect our children, and if the teachers bring their own guns, it will cost nothing.

Chip Towers constructs the timeline for the Pruitt hire:
… For better or worse, Jeremy Pruitt was Georgia's first and only choice.
Think about it. At the earliest, it would have been Sunday before Mark Richt could have turned his attention to hiring a replacement for Todd Grantham. It wasn't until after Georgia's basketball game against Alabama that the Bulldogs were informed of Grantham's offer from Louisville, and Grantham said he needed some time to think about it. quickly replied that they would be making not attempt to match it. By Monday night, Pruitt was in Athens and he was the Bulldogs' coach by lunchtime Tuesday.
"We had a 4 o'clock meeting the day (Monday) after Coach Grantham told me (he was leaving)," Richt said. "Within 24 hours we had another 4 o'clock meeting and I introduced Coach Pruitt to the players. So it did happen fast and I'm thankful it did. But I'm most thankful we got the right man for the job."
This wasn't the result of some long-range plan. It sounds like an opportunity arose, Friend reached out to Pruitt and Pruitt grabbed it. What made the deal go was that Jeremy Pruitt really wanted to coach in Athens.
But multiple times, Pruitt said the main reason he's now at Georgia was, "the guy sitting next to me right here," referring to Richt. They'd first met when Pruitt was a high school assistant and brought over a couple of prospects from Ft. Payne High.
"I said then that was somebody I wanted to work for if I ever got a chance," Pruitt said.
As for leaving the FSU and Jimbo Fisher, for whom he worked only one year and won a national championship in that one, Pruitt was succinct in his explanation.
"Coach Fisher and me are good friends, but when I decided what I wanted to do, I let him know and that was it," Pruitt said.
I admit that one of my first thoughts hearing the news was that if Pruitt lives up to expectations, it's hard to see him with the program beyond his three-year deal. That's probably still true, but maybe this is the beginning of a beautiful longer-term friendship. In any event, it's good to have another guy on staff who wants to be there.

We've been friends since before me starting this business, we actually met through our local dog club and Pet Therapy of The Ozarks. We both have therapy dogs that make visits to our local hospitals and nursing homes. I'm also the reason Katrina scrapbooks! Katrina called me one day and asked if I'd help her pick out what she needs to start scrapbooking.... so of course I took her out and showed her what she needs to start this fun hobby! Well to say the least she is a bit out of control now, I've been scrabooking for over 20 years and I think she has more product and tools than I do! I know for sure she has 100 more punches than me! ;) ...she knows I love her! Katrina lives near me and is always helping me out with anything from getting ready for CHA to teaching with my products at our local scarpbook store.

We basically are baking cookies all thru the month of December. Now, I am not saying that all those
cookies make it to Christmas. There are test batches that have to be done to meet quality standards. LOL
Top cookie on the list...well the Sugar Cookie of course. And it has to be made from scratch dough, not
the refrigerator kind. My roomie, Carleen, is the expert in this area. These are her masterpiece, I just stand back
and provide moral support!
Next, well it's a tie. There is the Almond Bar Cookie that is always requested and it's perfect for those that like
a shortbread type of cookie. Easy to whip up a couple of batches, drizzle with some powered sugar icing when
cooled and then you are good to go.
The other is the Peppermint Ball cookies. These are like a Mexican Wedding type of cookie, but with peppermints
ground up in them. Roll in powered sugar when right out of the oven....yummy.
Well, that's it for me. And oh yeah...I love to wear funny hats...Santa Hats, Elf Hats....soooo...what story is complete
without a picture? This is me, at Sonic....and I love "Totty the Elf" during Christmas at Sonic.
Merry Christmas!!!!

Disclaimer: I am discussing the very last class, also last required, of my MLIS degree. I may speak with a tad of "senioritis."
One of the required courses in my MLIS program is Evaluation of Information Services. I have been kind of dreading this course because I knew it would be very theory heavy and I'm kind of a more practical person when it comes to my learning style [I think we will be discussing more of theory vs practice very soon on this blog]. However, I understand that grad school should and is about challenging yourself. And, well, a requirement is a requirement.
Then the game changed a bit. On the first day of class the professor said that every assignment, four in total, would be due a week ahead of the posted due date. What? The earlier due date would allow for peer review. Each student would be responsible for reviewing at least two other classmates' work. Then you would have a few days to revise your assignment, taking into consideration the peer review if you felt you wanted to.
I wasn't sure how I felt about this. My immediate and selfish thought was that it would generate much more work for me. And what if I didn't appreciate what was said? What if people were not constructive but were more negative for negative sake? Because of my curiosity I posted this question via Twitter:
And as I usually do when asking my fellow classmates on Twitter these kinds of questions, I got some really interesting responses. Responses varied from those who thought more editing needed to be integrated into library school to whether it may be stifling or too much "busy work" for one semester.
Now I pose it to all of you. Is peer review a part of your courses? Should it be? As a profession where perhaps it would be positive if more people conducted research is this the kind of process that could be conducive to that? Do you want to get feedback from your classmates or just from your professors?

Yesterday Deborah Heiligman made the shortlist for the 2009 National Book Award for young people's literature for her captivating dual biography, Charles and Emma: The Darwins' Leap of Faith (Holt, 268 pp., $18.95, ages 9 and up). And she might win in a walk if the judges gave the prize for the acknowledgments section of a book alone. Heiligman amusingly tweaks the clichés of the genre in her thanks to her husband, the Pulitzer Prize-winning author Jonathan Weiner:
"You put up with a lot as I wrote this book. You owed me, sure, but you have paid me back in spades. I'm ready for your next one. Jon read the book front to back in many drafts, and if there are any mistakes, blame him."
Wouldn't acknowledgements be more fun if everybody wrote like this?

Travel and Adventure: Learn about Malibu through its historic homes
By Glenda Winders
Creators Syndicate
The mention of the name Malibu conjures up visions of the wealthy and famous, of a gated enclave where anyone without a Hollywood pedigree need not apply. But the happy surprise is that the area has a colorful history and much to offer anyone who makes time to seek it out.
I made this discovery quite by accident. While I was driving down the Pacific Coast Highway during a recent visit to Los Angeles, I saw the small sign that marked the entrance to the Adamson House. Out of curiosity I turned into the parking lot and walked up the lane to another world.
It turns out the land now operated as a California state park was originally peopled by the Chumash Indians. They named it Humaliwu — "where the surf sounds loudly" — which sounds strikingly similar to "Malibu" when said aloud and is the origin of the area's name today.
This civilization faded out as European explorers — probably even Juan Rodriguez Cabrillo himself — brought the battles and diseases that did them in. The land then changed hands between Spain and Mexico, eventually becoming part of the United States. It was then sold and handed down until it reached Frederick Hastings Rindge, who bought 17,000 acres at $10 each in 1892, and that's where the story of the Adamson House — and modern-day Malibu — begins.
Rindge, who made his fortune in oil and insurance, developed the property into a working ranch. Later his daughter, Rhoda, would marry the ranch superintendent, Merritt Adamson, and in 1929 they would build their home here at the beach on Vaquero Hill. Meanwhile, Rhoda's widowed mother discovered that the red clay on the property was good for making tile, and she established the world-famous Malibu Potteries that created an architectural trend reminiscent of Spain but specific to Southern California.
That would explain why the house is tastefully decorated in every room with artistic tiles — from what looks like an ornate Persian rug in a wide first-floor corridor to the ceramic clock in the kitchen and the colorful crannies in the bathrooms, bedrooms and pool house. In addition to commissioning Stiles Clements, a well-known architect of the time, the family also imported European artists to paint pictures of the area's history and decorate everything from ceiling beams to door panels.
The details in every corner of the home have been seen to. Since Mrs. Adamson loved the architecture of castles and her husband preferred a nautical theme, one of the windows in the sitting room that adjoins the master bedroom resembles a porthole and the other is long and narrow like the embrasures ("arrow slits") found in castles.
One of the French windows downstairs is protected by a wrought-iron grapevine that incorporates a playful spider web in one of its corners. A painting of Neptune on a fireplace hood faces toward the sea so he can survey his kingdom, and in the dining room a large mirror over the sideboard ensured that guests with their backs to the ocean could still enjoy the view.
Docent Leslee Arneson explained to the children in our group that the family ate meals promptly at 7 a.m., noon and 6 p.m., and if the children weren't washed up and in their seats at those times, they weren't allowed to eat. Later, as we visited the children's rooms upstairs, however, she pointed out a galley-like kitchen where the errant offspring could go to make themselves a snack.
A frequent visitor to the home was Will Rogers, who walked up the beach from his ranch in nearby Pacific Palisades. For a while the cowboy/humorist lived in Beverly Hills, where he was once mayor for a short time, but eventually he rented and then bought his own ranch as a place to keep horses and play polo.
Once I heard this information, I made that my next stop. Here I was lucky enough to have a tour with a park ranger, John Conroy, who has encyclopedic knowledge of the man who is obviously one of his heroes. As we walked through the ranch house he told stories about the iconic porch swing that hangs in the living room, the Monterey mission furniture, the animal heads and Indian blankets, and the portrait of Sequoia, whom Rogers admired because he codified the Cherokee language. Conroy also recounted anecdotes about Rogers' friendship with Charles Lindbergh and his discovery of an unknown cowboy singer, Gene Autry. He pointed out the chair and ashtray reserved for W.C. Fields, the typewriter where Rogers wrote his newspaper columns and the piano played by his wife, Betty.
"It's ultimately about Betty," Conroy said. "He needed her anchoring energy, someone to come home to. He was a family man."
The Rogers ranch became such a popular place for friends who wanted to play polo and others who just dropped in to visit that Betty eventually added on an extra wing that she designated "family only."
At the time of Rogers' death in a plane crash with Wiley Post, the house had 31 rooms.
"It was a Frankenstein house," Conroy said. "It was constantly under construction as he expanded."
Today the house, outbuildings and grounds — "the barn that jokes built" and the only outdoor polo field in Los Angeles — are kept exactly as they were when the Rogers family lived there. The ranch is now a state park with the sole mission of promoting equestrian activities.
Nearby is the Getty Villa, a museum built alongside the original home of the J. Paul Getty family. My guide here was my friend Jim Farber who grew up in this area and once visited the home as a child with a friend whose mother was a secretary there. An art lover and critic, he watched as the villa was constructed and as it changed with the opening of the lavish Getty Center in nearby Brentwood. With the paintings, furniture and sculpture moved to that new facility, the villa was then remodeled to house just Greek and Roman antiquities.
"The great thing about the museum now is its cohesiveness," Farber said. "Before it was a hodgepodge."
The building itself is worth a visit. Constructed to look like Herculaneum — the town near Pompeii in Italy that was also destroyed by Mount Vesuvius — it is accurate down to the finest details of inlaid marble tile work, decorative ceilings, ornate columns and fountains. Inside are galleries where ancient artifacts are arranged around religious, military and theatrical themes. One grouping of wine cups, a storage jar, jewelry and ritual vessels depicts scenes from "The Iliad."
Some rooms are devoted to exceptional pieces such as the statue of Aphrodite and the Lansdowne Herakles, a Roman copy of a Greek prototype that was found in the ruins of Hadrian's villa at Tivoli, Italy, and is said to have been J. Paul Getty's prize possession.
Another friend took me for a hike at Solstice Canyon in the Santa Monica Mountains that are also part of Malibu and promised me a surprise. Amid the scenic trails and dramatic rock outcroppings was another historic home, this one built by architect Paul R. Williams for Fred and Florence Roberts in the 1950s. Called "Tropical Terrace House," the house was tucked deep into the canyon among gardens and pools where some hikers still swim today.
The house was constructed of fire-resistant materials and engineered with an elaborate fire protection system to protect itself from possible brush fires. Inevitably it did burn in 1982, but the patios, chimneys and staircases remain intact and give visitors a taste of what life might have been like in the heyday of this home.
Adamson House sits next to Surfrider Beach and Malibu Lagoon, where Malibu Creek meets the Pacific Ocean and creates a unique habitat for freshwater and saltwater creatures: www.adamsonhouse.org.

Dog recovering after being shot with more than 80 BBs
Black lab found last week
The Lincoln County Animal Control Office is looking for information on a 1-year-old black Lab found covered with pellets from a BB gun.
The female dog, named Lady, has since been adopted and is in the care of a new owner Wednesday.
The stray Lab was found two weeks ago wandering behind a home in Waldoboro and taken to the Lincoln County Animal Shelter, where a vet discovered 80-100 BBs under the dog's face, back and legs.
Dr. Dean Domeyer of Boothbay Animal Hospital treated the dog.
"It wasn't just another little lump. You could feel something that was hard and round, and it felt like a BB, so we decided to take an X-ray," said Domeyer.
One X-ray revealed 50 BBs in the dog's head, with more scattered about her body.
"There are BBs everywhere. There is one pellet and multiple, multiple BBs," said Domeyer.
Domeyer said the dog appears to be healthy and happy, with a friendly temperament.
Domeyer said the BBs appear to be brass, therefore they don't need to be removed unless they start to infect the surface of the dog's skin.
"It still remains with Lady whether we are going to have to do anything about these BBs or not. Right now, none of them pose any threat to her. We have also not done any lead levels or blood cell count to make sure there is no issue, and that's probably on the docket," said Domeyer.
He plans to follow up with Lady and her new owner.
"She's a lucky dog. I mean, she doesn't have any eye damage as the vet said and she doesn't seem to have any organ damage, so I think she's going to have a wonderful life. She's very lucky. I think I'm very lucky," said Lady's new owner, Peter Blanton.
Blanton adopted Lady last week, after his dog of 10 years passed away.
"In just one day, she follows me like a shadow. She just wants love, and we love her," said Blanton.
The Lincoln County Animal Control officer said the case is an ongoing investigation working alongside the Waldoboro Police Department.
The Lincoln County Animal Control filed a case of animal cruelty Wednesday morning.
Anyone with information should call the police department at 207-832-4500.

It is our goal to keep your mouth healthy, your teeth fully functional, and your smile bright — and we are proud of all the services we offer to do exactly that. At the same time, we want you to understand all that modern dentistry in general has to offer you. To that end, we have assembled a first-rate dental library in which you can find a wealth of information on various dental topics, including:
From a thorough professional cleaning to a full smile makeover, there is an amazing array of services that cosmetic and general dentists offer to make sure your teeth stay healthy, function well and look great. If your smile is not all you want it to be, this is the place to start. Read more about Cosmetic & General Dentistry.
When you have a dental emergency — whether it's caused by a sudden accident or chronic disease — your teeth and/or the tissues of the mouth that surround them need to receive proper care right away. It's also important to be aware, before you're actually in the situation, of what you can do to ensure the best outcome. Read more about Emergency Dental Care.
This is the branch of dentistry that focuses on the inside of the tooth — specifically the root canals and sensitive, inner pulp (nerve) tissue. When this tissue becomes inflamed or infected, a root canal procedure may become necessary. But contrary to the popular myth, a root canal doesn't cause pain, it relives it. Read more about Endodontics.
If you are missing one or more teeth, dental implants offer the comfort and security of a permanent replacement that looks and functions just like your natural teeth. Dental implants also help preserve the tooth-supporting bone in your jaw that naturally deteriorates when even one tooth is lost. Read more about Implant Dentistry.
Oral health is an essential component of general health and well-being. Good oral health means a mouth that's free of disease; a bite that functions well enough for you to eat without pain and get ample nutrition; and a smile that lets you express your happiest emotions with confidence. Read more about Oral Health.
A major goal of modern dentistry is to help you keep your teeth and gums healthy for a lifetime. By following a conscientious program of oral hygiene at home, and coming to the dental office for routine cleanings and exams, you have the best chance of making this goal a reality. Read more about Oral Hygiene.
The word "surgery" often brings to mind a stay in the hospital, general anesthesia, and perhaps a lengthy recovery period. However, the experience of having oral surgery is usually very different from that. Some common oral surgery procedures include: tooth extractions, dental implant placement, and biopsies of suspicious oral lesions. Read more about Oral Surgery.
Adults and kids alike can benefit from the boost in self-confidence that comes from having a great-looking smile with beautifully aligned teeth. Orthodontic treatment can even improve chewing, speaking and oral hygiene in certain cases. And with today's virtually invisible orthodontic appliances, it's possible to keep your treatment a private matter… until your new smile is unveiled, of course! Read more about Orthodontics.
It's never too early to get your child started on the path toward a lifetime of good oral health, and there are many services to do exactly that. Monitoring your child's dental growth and development, and preventing and intercepting dental diseases along the way, is the primary focus of pediatric dentistry. Read more about Pediatric Dentistry.
If you want to keep your teeth for life — a completely reasonable goal in this day and age — you need to make sure the tissues that surround them are also healthy. Should gum problems arise, you may need periodontal therapy to restore diseased tissues to health. Read more about Periodontal Therapy.
In the field of dentistry, new technology is constantly changing the way diseases are diagnosed, routine procedures are performed, and illnesses are prevented. Although they may seem unfamiliar at first, new and improved dental technologies offer plenty of real benefits for patients. Read more about Technology.
Antibiotics are widely prescribed to control bacterial infections. Sometimes they are given before a medical or dental procedure, to prevent a possible infection from occurring; this practice is called "antibiotic prophylaxis." In the recent past, physicians and dentists advised that people with certain medical conditions - including a number of heart problems and several types of bone or joint replacements - should always take antibiotics before many routine dental procedures. Today, their advice may be different.
A growing body of evidence now indicates that far fewer patients need to take this preventive step than was previously thought. As a result, the guidelines for prescribing antibiotic prophylaxis have recently changed - and they may do so again in the future. Why are the recommendations changing - and what do you need to know about taking antibiotics before coming to the dental office?
We all know that bacteria - both helpful and harmful types - thrive in many parts of the body, including the mouth. Whenever circumstances make it possible for these microorganisms to enter the bloodstream, there's a slight risk that a bacterial infection may develop. This could occur in many dental procedures - and it could also occur during routine activities like chewing, brushing and flossing. In most cases, the risk is so small that the chance of a having bad reaction to antibiotics (while rare) is far greater than the chance of developing an infection; therefore, antibiotics aren't routinely used.
Some people, however, need to take extra precautions before having dental procedures. If you have been treated for some types of heart disease, or have had certain orthopedic procedures (including total joint replacement), we may advise taking antibiotics to protect against even a remote chance of infection. Recommendations are made on an individual basis, taking into account your medical history and a clinician's healthcare experience.
Prophylactic antibiotics might be recommended before dental procedures if you have one or more of the following heart conditions:
If you have undergone a joint replacement procedure, prophylactic antibiotics might be recommended if you also have one or more of the following risk factors:
There are other circumstances where taking prophylactic antibiotics would be a prudent step; there are also a number of situations where these medications might have been recommended in the past, but aren't currently required in all cases. For example, the presence of a benign heart murmur, a pacemaker or defibrillator, and certain heart diseases or congenital defects don't automatically mean that antibiotic prophylaxis will be needed.
In recent years, reports of drug-resistant bacteria and harmful side effects from some medications have increased public awareness of the consequences of overusing antibiotics. Fortunately, new scientific research is helping healthcare professionals make better, evidence-based treatment decisions on antibiotic use. If you have questions about whether you should take antibiotics before dental procedure, don't hesitate to ask.
Premedication for Dental Treatment If you have had a total joint replacement in the past, you may be advised to take antibiotics before have dental work. That's because certain preexisting health conditions may make you more susceptible to infection during a dental procedure. Find out what the risk factors are... Read Article

Defiant Egyptian president says he won't step down
CAIRO - His fate hanging in the balance, embattled President Mohammed Morsi vowed not to resign Tuesday, hours before a deadline to yield to the demands of millions of protesters or see the military suspend the constitution, disband parliament and install a new leadership.
The Islamist leader demanded that the powerful armed forces withdraw their ultimatum, saying he rejected all "dictates" - from home or abroad. Outside on the streets, the sense that both sides are ready to fight to the end sharpened, with clashes between his supporters and opponents that left at least 10 dead.
In an emotional speech aired live to the nation, Morsi, who a year ago was inaugurated as Egypt's first freely elected president, pledged to protect his "constitutional legitimacy" with his life. He accused loyalists of his ousted autocratic predecessor Hosni Mubarak of exploiting the wave of protests to topple his regime and thwart democracy.
"There is no substitute for legitimacy," said Morsi, who at times angrily raised his voice, thrust his fist in the air and pounded the podium. He warned that electoral and constitutional legitimacy "is the only guarantee against violence."
Morsi's defiant statement showed that he and his Muslim Brotherhood are prepared to run the risk of challenging the army. It also entrenches the lines of confrontation between his Islamist supporters and Egyptians angry over what they see as his efforts to impose control by his Muslim Brotherhood and his failures to deal with the country's multiple problems.
The crisis has become a struggle over whether a popular uprising can overturn the verdict of the ballot box. Morsi's opponents say he has lost his legitimacy through mistakes and power grabs and that their turnout on the streets over the past three days shows the nation has turned against him.
For a third day Tuesday, millions of jubilant, chanting Morsi opponents filled Cairo's historic Tahrir Square, as well as avenues adjacent to two presidential palaces in the capital, and main squares in cities nationwide. After Morsi's speech, they erupted in indignation, banging metal fences to raise a din, some raising their shoes in the air in a show of contempt. "Leave, leave," they chanted.
Morsi "doesn't understand. He will take us toward bloodshed and civil war," said Islam Musbah, a 28-year-old protester sitting on the sidewalk outside the Ittihadiya palace, dejectedly resting his head on his hand.
The president's supporters also moved out in increased marches in Cairo and other cities. Morsi's supporters have stepped up warnings that it will take bloodshed to dislodge him. While Morsi has stuck to a stance that he is defending democracy in Egypt, many of his Islamist backers have presented the fight as one to protect Islam.
"Seeking martyrdom to prevent the ongoing coup is what we can offer as a sign of gratitude to previous martyrs who died in the revolution," Brotherhood stalwart Mohammed el-Beltagy wrote Tuesday in his official Facebook page.
Political violence was more widespread on Tuesday, with multiple clashes between the two camps in Cairo as well as in the Mediterranean city of Alexandria and other cities. A march by Morsi supporters outside Cairo University came under fire from gunmen on nearby rooftops.
At least 10 people were killed in Cairo and more than 70 injured, according to hospital and security officials who spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to talk to the media.
The latest deaths take to at least 26 the people who have died since the first day of protests, Sunday, many of them in shootings of anti-Morsi gatherings.
Morsi went on TV hours after meeting with the head of the military, Defense Minister Gen. Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi, with the prime minister also present, in their second such meeting in as many days.
On Monday, the military gave Morsi an ultimatum to meet the protesters' demands within 48 hours. If not, the generals' plan would suspend the Islamist-backed constitution, dissolve the Islamist-dominated legislature and set up an interim administration headed by the country's chief justice, the state news agency reported.
The leaking of the military's so-called political "road map" appeared aimed at adding pressure on Morsi by showing the public and the international community that the military has a plan that does not involve a coup.
On his official Twitter account, Morsi urged the armed forces "to withdraw their ultimatum" and said he rejects any domestic or foreign dictates."
In his 46-minute speech Tuesday, he implicitly warned the military against removing him, saying such action will "backfire on its perpetrators."
Fearing that Washington's most important Arab ally would descend into chaos, U.S. officials said they are urging Morsi to take immediate steps to address opposition grievances, telling the protesters to remain peaceful and reminding the army that a coup could have consequences for the massive American military aid package it receives. The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak publicly.
Morsi adviser Ayman Ali denied that the U.S. asked Egypt to call early presidential elections and said consultations were continuing to reach national conciliation and resolve the crisis. He did not elaborate.
The army has insisted it has no intention to take power. But the reported road map showed it was ready to replace Morsi and make a sweeping change in the ramshackle political structure that has evolved since Mubarak's fall in February 2011.
The constitution and domination of the legislature after elections held in late 2011-early 2012 are two of the Islamists' and Brotherhood's most valued victories - along with Morsi's election last year.
A retired army general with close ties to the military confirmed the news agency report's version of the road map.
Hossam Sweilam said a panel of experts would draft a new constitution and the interim administration would be a presidential council led by the Supreme Constitutional Court's chief justice and including the defense minister, representatives of political parties, youth groups, Al-Azhar Mosque and the Coptic Church.
He said the military envisioned a one-year transitional period before presidential elections are held.
The military spokesman, Col. Ahmed Mohammed Ali, declined to confirm the details. "It is too early and we don't want to jump into conclusions," he said.
At least one anti-Morsi TV station put up a clock counting down to the end of the military's ultimatum, putting it at 4 p.m. Wednesday (1400 GMT, 10 a.m. EDT), though a countdown clock posted online by Morsi opponents put the deadline at 5 p.m. (1500 GMT, 11 a.m. EDT). The military did not give a precise hour.
Morsi also faced new fissures within his leadership.
Three government spokesmen - two for Morsi and one for the prime minister - were the latest to quit as part of high-level defections that underscored his increasing isolation and fallout from the military's ultimatum. Five Cabinet ministers, including the foreign minister, resigned Monday, and a sixth, Sports Minister El-Amry Farouq, quit Tuesday.
One ultraconservative Salafi party, al-Nour, also announced its backing for early elections. The party was once an ally of Morsi but in recent months has broken with him.
Among the opposition crowds outside the Qasr el-Qobba presidential palace, one protester said he believes Morsi will not go easily. "He will only leave after a catastrophe. Lots of blood. And the military is the only party that can force him out then," said Haitham Farouk, an oil company employee joining a protest for the first time.
He said the "epic" crowds showed how Egypt's public has turned against Morsi and his Brotherhood, which opponents claim is the real power behind the president. "This is everybody, not just the educated or the political," Farouk said of the protesters. "They came down because only the Brotherhood gained in the past two years.
Morsi may try half-measures to satisfy the army, he said, "but the people are not going back until he leaves. After what we have seen in the past year, we will not settle for less."
In a significant move, opposition parties and the youth movement behind the demonstrations agreed that reform leader and Nobel Peace laureate Mohamed ElBaradei would represent them in any negotiations on the country's political future. The move appeared aimed at presenting a unified voice in a post-Morsi system, given the widespread criticism that the opposition has been too fragmented to present an alternative to the Islamists.
Brotherhood spokesman Gehad el-Haddad said the opposition is to blame for its own woes, failing to perform well in the elections, and has now decided to "brush up to military power."
"We can't keep running elections until (the Brotherhood) loses," he wrote in a Tweet. He said the opposition should "man up" to its responsibilities and come up with a better strategy "or accept democratic outcomes."
Despite heated rhetoric among many Islamists about standing up to the military, one cleric from the Salafi movement warned against repeating the scenario of Algeria, when the military negated elections that Islamists won in the 1990s, and the Islamists responded with a yearslong, bloody insurgency.
The result, Adel Nasr wrote on a Salafi website, was that "more than a hundred thousand were killed and ... their popularity went down," costing Islamists both political power and the power of their religious message.

No team in baseball last season got an offensive output as paltry from their third basemen as the Phillies got.
Kevin Frandsen was the best of the worst.
That performance by the 30-year-old infielder in the second half of the season got him a one-year, $850,000 deal with the Phils for 2013, avoiding arbitration.
The Phillies called up Frandsen in late July and immediately gave him a chance to play regularly at third. He responded by hitting .338 with a .383 on-base percentage in 55 games, including 49 starts at third base. The high average didn't come with a lot of run production (24 runs, 14 RBIs), but the emergence of Carlos Ruiz's bat in 2012, the return of Chase Utley and Ryan Howard and the impending outfielder or two the Phillies expect to add this offseason could make Frandsen and Freddy Galvis an adequate combination hitting in the No. 8 hole for 2013.
Even if another third baseman is acquired, Frandsen is capable of playing all infield positions and left field in a pinch. He's a .267 lifetime hitter in the majors, spanning parts of six seasons. He started the 2012 season with Triple-A Lehigh Valley and hit .302 with 34 doubles.
Reliever Antonio Bastardo and outfielder Nate Schierholtz are the only remaining arbitration-eligible players for the Phils.

Amistad will be a no-show for Sailfest this weekend
New London — Just days before its anticipated arrival for the city's annual Sailfest, Amistad America has backed out of a commitment to bring the schooner to City Pier as part of the festival.
"Of course we're disappointed," said Barbara Neff, executive director of the Downtown New London Association, which hosts Sailfest.
Neff said Amistad America confirmed the ship would attend Sailfest in May, and that dockside tours and harbor sails on the schooner have been advertised in The Day and elsewhere as part of Sailfest activities.
"They're in our guide and on our website, and yes, in our advertising," Neff said.
Hanifa Washington, executive director and chief executive officer of Amistad America, sent emails to Neff and The Day Tuesday afternoon addressing the decision not to bring the ship to the city.
"The Freedom Schooner Amistad will be unable to attend Sailfest this week," Washington wrote to Neff. "This comes as a tremendous setback for us. There are a variety of acute factors fueling this decision."
She invited Neff to call her if she wanted to discuss the matter and said the schooner would be open for dockside tours this weekend in New Haven, where it has been for the last couple of weeks.
"I hope the lack of Amistad's presence on the 12th & 13th don't subtract from the quality of your tremendous event," Washington said.
In a separate email to a Day editor, Washington chastised the newspaper's coverage of the Amistad over the past year and said The Day is partially to blame for the decision not to bring the schooner to New London.
She also stated that newspaper staff has lost the "privilege" of boarding the schooner and interviewing any staff.
The sources of Washington's displeasure are news stories, columns and editorials raising questions about how $8 million in state funds directed to Amistad America was spent by former president and CEO Greg Belanger. Washington replaced Belanger last year.
Even while it continues to fund the Amistad at about $400,000 a year, the state is in the midst of a long overdue audit of how the financially troubled organization has used taxpayer funds. Amistad America has also lost its tax-exempt status for failing to file federal tax returns.
Despite the state's considerable and continued investment in the Amistad, it has no ownership interest in the schooner, which was built at Mystic Seaport to help promote the Amistad story. In 1839, 53 Africans who were kidnapped from their homeland were transported from Havana, Cuba, on the Spanish ship La Amistad. The Africans revolted, and the ship eventually ended up in Long Island Sound. Jailed in New Haven, the Africans endured a two-year trial to determine their fate. They won their freedom in 1841.
Steven Spielberg's 1997 movie tells the story of the Amistad and what transpired in Connecticut, and the recreated Amistad built at Mystic Seaport was intended to help to continue to tell that story.
But before Belanger's departure, he made an agreement with the Ocean Classroom Foundation of Maine to operate the ship, and it has spent some time there, as well as in other locales, where it has been used for filming of movies.
According to Neff, the last time Amistad was in New London was for last summer's Sailfest. She said the schooner was expected in the city last month, but it backed out of that commitment, too. It also did not attend the Wooden Boat Show at Mystic Seaport last month, as scheduled.
The schooner Virginia will be in the city and available for day sails this weekend, Neff said.
In her email to The Day, Washington expressed her displeasure with the newspaper.
"In my opinion speaking to the New London Day at this time is counter productive to the success of the organization of which I serve," she wrote. "I have no faith and no reason to believe that 'accuracy' and 'objectivity' are in your publication's vocabulary ...
"Furthermore, I would kindly ask that your staff not assume they have the right to board the vessel. It is a privilege that your staff has now lost. I can not have my crew subjugated to the malice interrogation of your staff. The crew care for and sail the ship and are not to be quoted in regards to the operations of the organization and its past."
She ended by saying: "The Freedom Schooner Amistad will not be attending Sailfest this weekend. You can partially thank your publication and its relentless hostility as a factor of that decision."
