Embedded deep under its blubber was a 3 112-inch arrow-shaped projectile that has given researchers insight into the whale's age, estimated between 115 and 130 years old. "No other finding ~as been this precise," said John Bockstoce, an adjunh curator of the New Bedford Whaling Museum., . Calculating a whale's age can be difficult, and is usually gauged by amino acids in the eye lenses. It's rare to find one that has lived more than a century, but experts say the oldest were close to 200 years old. The whale, which was nearly half a football field long; had a bomb lance fragment lodged a bone between its neck and shoulder blade. The fragment was likely manufactured in New Bedford, on the southeast coast of Massac husetts, a major whaling center at that time, Bockstoce said. . It was probably shot at the whale from a heavy shoulder gun around 1890. The small metal cylinder was filled with explosives tltted with a time-delay fuse so it would Wide Bowh1ad whale,.ba/aena mysticelus Tall marl<ing grows blgger and whiter ~th age Layer of blubber up to 2 feet thick Introduced In the 1840s, · the shoulder-fired lance was . used lor a close-range kill '..... 11p explcxled seconds after impact SOURCES: American Col8c.ean Society; New Bedford Whaling Museum explode seconds after it was shot into the whale. The bomb lance was meant to kill the whale immediately and prevent it from escaping. The device exploded and probably injured the whale, Bockstoce said. "It probably hurt the whale, or annoyed him, but it hit him in a non-lethal place," he said. "He couldn't have been that bothered if he lived for another 100 years."

The three of us are part of a group of professionally connected people. ' Sally lives with Harry, although he often spends months at a time overseas. I recently made friends with "Paul," who is nearly 30 years older and in a different profession, and I introduced him to Sally and Harry. While Harry was out of town ,' Paul asked Sally to accompany him to an event that many of us were attending. Sally found the invitation strange, but since she would have gone anyway, ·she agreed to be escorted by . Paul. Sally didn't consider it a date, but Paul did,, and he told me Sally is fair game since her boyfriend is out of town. I told him he is mistaken, but he accused me of being jealous. It's not so. I have a boyfriend and am not at, all interested in Paul. Sally told me Paul recently asked her to ·watch a movie with him at his house. She said she finds Paul inappropriate, and she also added that Harry is furious. I talked to Paul on the phone arid told him it is improper to go after someone else's girlfriend. He told me to mind my own business, but I feel responsible, since I introduced Paul into our professional circle. Since I find myself in the middle, even though it's qot my business, what should I do? Uneasy in California Dear Uneasy: You should tell Sally and Harry that you think Paul's behavior is totally out of bounds and they are welcome to let him know. That will remove any reservations they may have that dealin.g with Paul will damage their relationship with you. How they then decide to handle it is entirely up to them. Dear Annie: Please tell me how a short, bald man with below-average looks cart get a date?

I keep myself neat, clean and well dre ssed, and I am a good li stener. I am out with friends every night to fill the void of being alone. :They don't understand why I can't get a date.

President Bush prodded rebellious Senate Republicans Tuesday to help resurrect legislation that could provide eventual citizenship for millions of illegal immigrants. "It's a highly emotional issue," said Bush after a session in which several lawmakers bluntly told him their constituents do not trust the govern ment to secure the nation's borders or weed out illegal workers at job sites. To alleviate the concerns, the president said he was receptive to an emergency . spe nding bill as a way to . emphasize his administration 's wmmitment to accelerated enforcement. One congressional official put the price tag at up to $15 billion. "I do~'t think he changed any minds," conceded Sen. Mel Martinez, R-Fia. , a supporter of the legislation. But Martinez added 1 that the president's appearance had helped nudge "people on the fence" to be more favorably inclined. One Republican widely viewed as a potential convert, Sen. Bob Corker of Tennessee, said he was not yet persuaded. "At the end of the day, I've · got to be able to sit down and know myself that we are going to secure our border," he said. 'Today, I do not feel that way."

Member SIPC. • : · : , FAMILY MEDICINE Jury still out on benefit of cinnamon and fish oil for diabetics Question: My mother has TYpe II diabetes, -so my doclor tells me I am at risk for getting it. I have heard that cinnamon can prevent Type . II diabetes. Is that so? Have you heard of other things that prevent diabetes? Answer: The best way to prevent diabetes is to eat right, exercise and keep your weight down . However, there have been some interesting studies on the ability of certain natural substances including cinnamon and fish oils to affect the course of diabetes. I will comment on both of these. In 2003, a study was done in Pa,kistan to see the effects of cinnamon on TYpe II diabetes and, more specifically, blood glucose levels. Researchers divided 60 people into six groups. Each group was asked to take a daily capsule. Three of the groups got placebo capsules; thatts, their capsules did not contain cinnamon but, rather, an inert ingredient. The other three groups were asked to take cinnamon capsules with one, three or six grams of cinnamon. All three cinnamon groups ---: and none of the placebo groups - showed a significant reduction in blood glucose levels after taking the capsules for 40 days. They also showed a decrease in triglycerides, total ·cholesterol and low-· density lipoproteins (LDL), which is sometimes referred to as the "bad cholesterol." While these benefits lasted for 20 days after stopping the cinnamon, it's not clear what the long-term effects might be. You have to be a bit careful with cinnamon as you can overdose · on it, so more is not better. You only need about one quarter of a teaspoon of cinnamon a couple of times a day. This can be added to your coffee, your tea or your cereal. For once, something that is good for you tastes good as well. Fish oil is another product that has been tested ·to see what impact it may have on type II diabetes. A small study in Norway was conducted to see its effect on blood cholesterol markers. After nine weeks, the cholesterol markers were lower, and the patients had improved insulin sensitivity which means their insulin was doing its job better. Increasing the consumption of oily fish, like mack-erel, lake trout, herring, sardines, .albacore tuna and salmon, has been recommended for a long time by the American Heart Association to lower triglycerides and improve cardiovascular health. · The AHA suggests eating these fish at least two times a week, and in some cases, suggests the use of supplements. The Natwnal Institutes of Health, however, cautions that gastrointestinal upset is common with fish oil supplements. This may include burping, heartburn, indigestion, and . abdominal pain. In terms of diabetes, the fuil benefiis of cinnamon and fish oil, if any, have not been strongly documented yet. In other words the jury is still out. On the other hand, neither of these substances in modest amounts is harmful. And, cinnamon really does smell good' If your concern is triglycerides, increasing consumption of fish oils is sound advice backed by a good deal of excellent research. If you decide to try either of these, whether your concern is diabetes or cardiovascular health, you should consult your physician first. You should also always remember to list these sup- . plements when a medical person asks what medications you · are taking. Natural substances can and do have side effects and sometimes harmful interactions with other medicines. ·Her life is being torn Family Medicine® · is a weeNly column.

However, the• lag between tax revenue projections and collections has not yet been finalized, and lawmakers and Gov. Ted Strickland agreed that figuring out what spending to cut to fiB the gap . will be a key challenge heading into talks on the final budget compromise. The Senate's version of the budget, a bill that will fund state operations for the two years beginning July I, calls for slightly more spending than the House version. After a vote by the full Senate on Wednesday expected to be unanimous, as it was in the House Republican lawmakers who /lP STATEHOUSE CO,RR ESPONDENT tiations was to limit Strickland's proposed across-the-board property tax exemption for senior citizens and the disabled to ' mostly low-income people. Such a change would save the state at least $118 million a year, according to a recent Policy Matters Ohio study put together. by the · Institute on Taxation and Economic Policy, a nonprofit, nonpartisan think tank in Washington, D.C. Strickland said ·it is 'too soon to speculate how the shortfall will be made up. He also declined to name any'specific items he wants to see in the compromise. "We will try to maintain the collegial, cooperative and collaborative relationship and environment that has characterized the process so far," he said. ''I'm very hopeful that we're going to conie out with a budget that the people of this state will feel good about." Senators of both parties praised the budget as it emerged from committee Tuesday, touting its -important support for civil rights, affordable college tuition and economic development.

There were rumblings late Monday that Busch, who is under · contract through . 2008, has asked to be released from his contract.

MIAMI (AP) - Scott Olsen allowed three hits in seven innings to outpitch Fausto Carmona, and M1guel Olivo's three-run . double helped the Florida Marlins be&t the Cleveland Indians 30 Tuesday night. Olivo chopped a ball over the head of Cleveland third baseman Casey Blake, clearing the bases with one out in the seventh and delivering the blow that sent Carmona (7-2) to his first loss in his last II starts. Carmona hadn't been beaten si nce his 2007 debut, April 13 against the Chicago White Sox. Armando Benitez pitched a perfect eighth for Florida, and Kevin Gregg fmished it off for his 1Oth save in as many chances.

Ken Griffey Jr.'s tiebreaking sacrifice fly in the seventh inning helped Cincinnati survive Escobar's overpowering performance on Tuesday night, rallying the Reds to a 5-3 victory over the Los Angeles Angels.

Singles by Scott Hatteberg and Phillips off Dustin Moseley (4-1) set up the tiebreaking run, and Griffey's fly to right off Darren Oliver snapped a 3-all tie. A fielding error by second basemari Erick Aybar let in another run in the eighth. Jon Coutlangus (3-1) pitched a perfect inning in relief of Bronson Arroyo, who hasn 't won a game since May 6. David Weathers got the last four outs for his 13th save in 15 chances. The Angels lost for only the ninthtime in their last 32 games, a streak that has sent them to the top of the AL West. Their 40-25 mark is the best in franchise history - the 1979, '80 and '02 teams had 39 wins at the same point of the season. Despite the victory, Cincinnati remains at the bottom of the National League at 26-39 and is already looking at things in a much longer perspective. · "Well, you always hope ·for the best," Griffey said. "Sometimes, things don't work out, but if you keep pushing and getting better, you can stan looking forward to next year - not that I'm saying this year's over." Casey Kotchman and Gary .Matthews Jr. hit solo homers for the Angels, who are 5-2 . in interleague play this season. Escobar dominated in the Angels' first game in Cincinnati. His 14 strikeouts were the most by an Angels pitcher since Chuck Finley fanned 15,Yankees on May 23, 1995. Escobar has pitched two of his greatest games at Great American Ball Park, which has been one of the most homer-friendly in the majors since it opened in 2003.

"But, I guess the same !bing happened to them. They, did not have a happy night." While Ginobili delivered late, finishing with just the three points, he and the other two members of the Spurs' Big 3 struggled on Tuesday with Tim Duncan and Tony Parker combining for 31 points. "Offensively we could not get the ball in the basket," reserve swingman Brent Barry said. "Nobody for us was having a good game as far as Tim, Tony and Manu are concerned offensively. But we kept getting stops and getting in there .and we know it was ugly but we are up 3-0 at the end of the day and that's all that counts in the series." San Antonio's supporting cast - and their 3-point shooting -kept the Spurs in it. The Spurs were 10-of-19 from 3-point range with Bruce Bowen hitting four 3s, one more than. Barry. Michael Finley and Robert Horry each added a 3. "It's difficult to go into' a game and say tonight we're going to take 3s or tonight Timmy Duncan is going to shoot 28 times," Spurs coach Gregg Popovich said. "It's best that one takes what's given, and that's what we tried to do."· Parker even got into the long-range shooting, hitting just his fifth 3 of these playoffs. . "Coach Pop doesn't like me to shoot 3s, but he told me next year I can go back and shoot 3s ... so I decided to stan a little bit in the playoffs," Parker joked: "I know he was screaming when I iook it." Duncan and Popovich sang the praises of Bowen in particular. "He did everything for us," Duncan said. "He sat down and defended for 44 minutes out there. He made some big shots for us, rebounded the ball. Just an unbelievable effort on his pan. You can't say enough about him."

(AP) Phil Mickelson looked more like a bowler than a threetime major champion, adjusting the black brace on his left wrist as he stared down the first fairway, an alley lined not by gutters but the gnarly, ankle-deep rough of Oakmont Country Glub. It was a gentle swing and a favorable result, right down the middle . He·played only nine holes Tuesday. but it was the first time he had played golf since he withdrew May 31 after II holes of the Memorial with an inflamed left wri st. He had hoped to play without pain at the U .S. Open. but he will settle for playing . should be able to have it be manageable as long as I don"t aggravate it," Mickelson said. "Or hit it in the rough." " Talk about a miracle cure. Mickelson·s inability to keep the ball in the short grass i s the reason he comes to this major with as much i~flammation in his psyche as his l eft wrist. A year ago at Wmged Foot, he was one par away from an elusive U.S. Open title until hitting a . tee shot off a corporate . tent. against a tree and into a bunker, making double bogey on the 18th hole to finish one shot behind Geoff Ogilvy. ago for his marathon practice sessions, where he sticks tiny flags on the putting surface and slowly works his way around the green chipping out of the rough from every conceivable angle. He believes that's how he injured his wrist. Now, his best hope this week might be staying out of the thick grass. "I think it's imponant to drive the ball very well here, obviously, and .that's going to be the biggest challenge for me," he said. "But this should not be a long-term problem if I don't' aggravate the inflammation. And this, unfonunately, isn't the best week for that, given my driving history." It's not a good week for anyone not at full strength. Reputed to be the toughest golf course in the country, Oakmont offers a complete test. The course is not the longest; even if it has the longest par 5 (667 yards) and longest par 3 (288 yards) in maJor champi-on ship history. The greens are so fast that the U.S. Open staff slows them down to keep it fair. " It 's probably the most difficult championship that we face all year, because you're tested from tee-togree, and you're tested on the greens," two-time cham- Having already tied the U.S. Open record for most second-place finishes fo ur Mickelson showed up at Oakmont two weeks pion Tiger Woods said.

Rarer still is not playing a full ( 8 holes qn any of the practice days leading up to the tournament. "I could have played 18, but I don ' t want to push it," Mickelson said.

You have to have and put the pain in the back of your head if you can. I don't know how severe it is. When you're under the gun, everything going." That presumably means all body pans working at full capacity. -And while the pain is in Mickelson's wrist, the key might be his head. "He's a power player," said Ernie Els, another twotime U.S. Open champion who has played with a bad wrist, back and is jUst now recovering from surgery to repair knee ligaments. "You go at it aggressively, you have to just somehow try you get competitive, you want to hit it the way you always do. You've just got try to and not think about it." This might be the most rust Mickelson has brought to a major championship, certainly thi s one. He prefers to play the week before a major, but pulled out last w~ek on the PGA He tried to play last Tuesday and couldn't, so he called his doctors for a cortisone shot to h~lp ease the inflammation. On ·his way to Pittsburgh, he took a detour to Las Vegas to work wtth swing coach Butch Harmon. He sti ll couldn't play. But with therapy, ice and rest, Mickelson believes it's getting better. He hit balls for the first time Monday upon his arrival at Oakmont, but only took one swing wiih the driver and didn't take any full shot s off the ground, u sing a tee to hit middle irons. · He only pulled oul the driver a couple of times over nine holes Tuesday. Perhaps the biggest disappointment was seeing rough actually shoner than when he got hurt. Woods and Ogilvy noticed the same thing. Ogilvy was reported to have shot 85 last week while losing seven balls, but the Australian set the record straight. " I think I shot 83 and lost two," Ogilvy said. " But it was hard. It was five shots harder last Monday than it is right now. I dido 't think there would be one score in the 60s at all, and I thought there would be scores in the 2 Par 4 Some players might be tempted to dnve the green, but 1t comes with great nsk.

James, Cavaliers take on Cleveland's curse BY· JOE MtUCIA ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER ' I i! I CLEVELAND Strange things are happening to the pro teams in this city. The Cavaliers are in the NBA finals. The Indians are tied for first place. And the Browns drafted an offensive lineman - in the first round. Could they be signs that the curse blamed for Cleveland's decades of sports woes i~ dose to lifting? LeBron James and the Cavaliers have a chance to end the· city's 43-year championship drought, although that now seems improbable considering their defi cit in the NBA finals . San Antonio won 75-72 tuesday night, taking a 3-0 lead · in the best-of-seven series. The Spurs only need one more win to secure their fourth championship. No team has ever won the title after losing the first three games. The Cavaliers are testing the widely held belief in town that a curse is responsible for all the heartbreak fans have suffered over the years. The Drive. The Fumble. The Shot. Art Modell moving the Browns to Baltimore. Jose Mesa 's blown save in Ganie 7 of the 1997 World Series. The list goes on and on. Boston and Chicago 's curses are at least selective, picking on only the Red Sox- who ended theil"86year title drought when they won the World Series in 2004 - or the Cubs while allowing the Celtics, · Patriots and Bulls to win title after title. Cleveland 's curse ' has hovered over all three . teams. More recently the jinx has struck individual players such as the Browns' Kellen Winslow on his illfated motorcyCle ride and top free agent center LeCharles Bentley, who tore up his knee on the first full-contact play of training camp. Only James has appeared to be jinx proof. He's lived up to the enormous hype that followed him from. high school in nearby Akron and has led his team to the finals in just his fourth season. "This will be the biggest · thing that happened here since Bill Veeck and the 1948 World Series winners. if they can win this thing," said Hall of Farner Bob Feller, a member of that last lndia!JS championship team. Some blame the curse on Rocky Colavito, the Indians popular right fielder .traded to the Tigers for H<)rvey Kuerrn in 1960. But Colavito has said he never cursed anyone. Some say Jim Brown, who retired ·abruptly after the 1965 NFL season, is responsible. Others point to former Browns owner Art Modell, who never took the team to the Super Bowl then moved the franchise to Baltimore and won it all. Feller doesn't believe .in · any of it. "I' m not superstitious," he said. "I don' t believe anything is a curse. I don 't believe in goblins or ghosts. It's nonsense." Feller has another explanation.
