Lawyer Ron looked to be a Triple Crown threat last spring, reeling off victories in the Southwest S., GIII Rebel S. and GII Arkan- sas Derby. Owner/breeder James T. Hines Jr. passed away in the run-up to the GI Kentucky Derby, but the colt went to the gate on the first Saturday in May, only to finish 12th. He headed to the shelf after that experience, returning to take Aug. 26 St. Louis Adam Coglianese Derby.

    "The past is never dead. It's not even past." William Faulkner NOT EVEN PAST Search the site ... A History of the World in Like 0 Sixteen Shipwrecks, by Tweet Stewart Gordon (2015) By Cynthia Talbot The world’s attention was captured in 2012 by the disaster that befell the Costa Concordia, a cruise ship that ran aground off the coast of Italy leading to 32 deaths. This shipwreck is the most recent one covered in A History of the World in Sixteen Shipwrecks, whose expansive gaze covers much of the world from 6000 BCE to the present. Like several other books containing the words “A History of the World in ..” in their title, Stewart Gordon’s work attempts to encapsulate world history through the close study of a set number of things. Other examples of this approach include A History of the World in 100 Weapons, A History of the World in 12 Maps, A History of the World in 6 Glasses, and the very successful A History of the World in 100 Objects, a collaborative project between BBC Radio and the British Museum. Focusing on a few cases as a way to illustrate global trends is both entertaining and effective – the reader can acquire interesting details about specic things and learn about the broader context at the same time. Recovery operations on the Costa Concordia (via Wikimedia Commons). Shipwrecks are dramatic occurrences that are often tragic for those involved, but they can also lead to the preservation of artifacts that can be studied and analyzed, sometimes centuries or millennia after the events themselves.

  • European Ships of Discovery
    European Ships of Discovery Filipe Castro Texas A&M University [email protected] Abstract The ships and boats of the 15th and early 16th century European voyages were the space shuttles of their time, and yet we don’t know much about them because most have been destroyed by looters and treasure hunters. This paper will focus on a particular type, the caravel, and presents an overview of the early European watercraft that crossed the Atlantic and sailed along the American coasts during the first decades of the 16th century. Key words: caravel, 16th Century, Europe, ships, looting Introduction The earliest Iberian voyages into the Atlantic were carried out in the existing ships. Soon however the need to adapt the existing watercraft to the sailing conditions of the open sea triggered a process of evolution that is poorly understood, but that reflects the existing cultural, scientific and economic conditions in the Iberian kingdoms. This is an interesting process of technological evolution that is in its earliest states of investigation. The main ships of the European expansion were sailing ships, mainly caravels, naus, and galleons. Rowing ships were also used in the European factories abroad, sometimes shipped in the holds of sailing ships, and sometimes built in Africa and Asia, in the beginning according to European standards, but very soon incorporating local features as they were understood as advantageous. This paper deals with caravels, a versatile and small ship type that is still poorly understood. Caravels Caravels are among the least understood of all historical vessels. Mentioned in hundreds, perhaps thousands of books, these ships are associated with the Iberian exploration of the Atlantic in the 15th century, and are considered the space shuttles of their time, allowing the Portuguese and Spanish explorers to sail down the African coast, and open the maritime routes to the Caribbean, the west coast of Africa, and the Indian and Pacific Oceans.

Department of The University of British Columbia 1956 Main Mall Vancouver, Canada V6T 1Y3 DE-6(3/81) ii ABSTRACT Voyages of discovery could not be entertained until the advent of three-masted ships. Single-sailed ships were effective for voyages of short duration, undertaken with favourable winds. Ships with two masts could make long coastal voyages in the summer. Both these types had more or less severe limitations to sailing to windward. To sail any ship successfully in this mode it is necessary to be able to balance the sail plan accurately. This method of keeping course could not reach its full developemnt until more than two sails were available for manipulation.

    MONDAY, AUGUST 30, 2021 NUMBERS DON'T LIE. BUT MEDINA SPIRIT RETURNS A WINNER IN SHARED BELIEF THEY CAN BE PERPLEXING Zedan Racing Stable's Medina Spirit (Protonico), whose GI Kentucky Derby title still remains in limbo due to a betamethasone positive, returned to the winner's circle with a wire-to-wire victory in the Shared Belief S. at Del Mar Sunday. The dark bay colt, sent off the 4-5 favorite, went quickly to the lead and was tracked by second choice Rock Your World (Candy Ride {Arg}) through a quarter in :22.52 and a half in :46.92. The two favorites were swarmed by longshots nearing the stretch as GI Santa Anita Derby winner Rock Your World drifted out slightly in upper stretch and Team Merchants (Nyquist) and Stilleto Boy (Shackleford) exchanged bumps, but Medina Spirit ran straight and true and powered home a one-length winner over the resurgent Rock Your World. Following an inquiry into the infractions in upper stretch, the stewards determined Team Merchants, who finished fourth, was responsible for the interference with third-place finisher Stilleto Boy and allowed Essential Quality overtakes Midnight Bourbon | Sarah Andrew the order of finish to stand.

  • Breeder Award Earners for 2017
    Executive Review By Tracy Egan, Executive Director Mission Statement: To promote by monetary incentives the responsible breeding of quality Thoroughbred racehorses in keeping with the founding legislation to preserve New York’s irreplaceable farmland. There are many subjects covered in our annual report to the governor and legislature that demonstrate that the NY Thoroughbred Breeding and Development Fund is succeeding in supporting the above mission statement. The quality of New York-breds was demonstrated through graded stakes wins at tracks ranging from Dubai in the Middle East to California, by strong performances in the sale ring, and most of all by a nearly 5% increase in the 2017 foal crop. Fasig-Tipton President Boyd Brown keeps a close watch on the North American Thoroughbred industry and notes that, “The New York-bred program continues to be the finest breeding program of its kind in the United States. The quality of horses continues to improve in the sales ring and on the racetrack.” Benchmarks for the past year: Sixteen NY-breds scored wins in 19 graded stakes, with three of those victories coming at the Grade 1 level. The foal crop in New York grew for the sixth year in a row, representing a nearly 40 percent increase over 2011, when the foal crop hit its lowest point of the past decade.
