Gabbard had a 3.5 1 ERA

happening out of spring

"My confidence is through

the roof right now." Gabbard
said. " l know l can pitch up
here and l just need to work
on some little things to obviously stay up here."
He allowed one hit and
struck out three.
"Obviously when you take
the ball you go out there and
try to do the best you can

said. "You can't really worry
about too much stutf that

that the firings were not

An

the attorney general's top

told students at a journalism
seminar at Troy University
in Alabama.
It's customary for new
presidents to bring in their
own team of prosecutors

when they take office.
Democrats say the Bush
administration singled out
some of its own nominees
because they chafed at the
president's priorities and
efforts by Republican members of Congress and others
to influence political corruption investigations.
. "Eight U.S. attorneys who
did not play ball wtth the
political agenda of this
administration were dropped
from the team," said Senate
Democratic Whip Dick
Durbin of Illinois. "We have
a right to ask what that political agenda was and whether
or not it was a reasonable firing and dismissal."
Some of the fired prosecutors testified last week that
lawmakers leaned on them to
speed up prosecutions that
would hurt Democrats.
Others said they felt intimidated by the agency to stay
quiet. All of them were
miffed by the Justice
Departmettt's contention
that the dismissals were performance-related.
The
department then fired back,
enumerating publicly what
were described as performance problems for each of
the fired prosecutors.
Gonzales at first shrugged
off the furor as an
"overblown personnel matter" in a USA Today column.
A day later, the inspector
general of his department
released a report showing a
different prob Iem: The
Justice Department had
abused its power to issue
secret national security letters seeking people's personal information.
The twin controversies
made Republicans cringe.
One. Sununu. called for
Gonzales· firing . Others
have muttered tepid support
for the attorney general
while acknowledging concern about how the firings
and their aftermath looked.

Bush on Wednesday
defended the firings but criticized how they were
explained to Congress. The
president said he still had
confidence in the attorney
general but implied that his
support was conditioned on
Gonzales patching things up
with lawmakers.

Department
spokesman
Brian
Roehrkasse said the subpoena authorizations were not
needed because Gonzales
had agreed to make his aides

The Senate panel also
authorized subpoenas for six
of the eight fired U.S. attorneys. The six - Carol Lam
of San Diego, Bud Cummins
of Arkansas, Paul Charlton
of Arizonl!, J?hn McKay of
Seattle, Damel Bogden of
Nevada and David Iglesias
of New Mexico - testified
under subpoena last week
before the House Judiciary

delayed until March 22 a
vote on subpoenas for Rove;
former
White
House
Counsel Harriet Miers and
her deputy, William K.
Kelley. E-mails released this
week either authored by or
men.tioning Rove, Miers and
Kelley appeared to, contradict the administration's
contention that B1.1sh's staff
had only limited involvement in the purge.
Rove said Thursday the
controversy i&gt; being fueled
by "superheated political
rhetoric," and he said there
was no similar uproar when
President Clinton dismissed
all 93 U.S. attorneys at the
beginning of his first term in
the White House.
"We're at a point where
people want to play politics
with it. That's fine ," Rove
told students at a journalism
seminar at Troy University
in Alabama.
It's customary for new
presidents to bring in their
own team of prosecutors

when they take office.
Democrats say the Bush
administration singled out
some of its own nominees
because they chafed at the
president's priorities and
efforts by Republican members of Congress and others
to influence political corruption investigations.
. "Eight U.S. attorneys who
did not play ball wtth the
political agenda of this
administration were dropped
from the team," said Senate
Democratic Whip Dick
Durbin of Illinois. "We have
a right to ask what that political agenda was and whether
or not it was a reasonable firing and dismissal."
Some of the fired prosecutors testified last week that
lawmakers leaned on them to
speed up prosecutions that
would hurt Democrats.
Others said they felt intimidated by the agency to stay
quiet. All of them were
miffed by the Justice
Departmettt's contention
that the dismissals were performance-related.
The
department then fired back,
enumerating publicly what
were described as performance problems for each of
the fired prosecutors.
Gonzales at first shrugged
off the furor as an
"overblown personnel matter" in a USA Today column.
A day later, the inspector
general of his department
released a report showing a
different prob Iem: The
Justice Department had
abused its power to issue
secret national security letters seeking people's personal information.
The twin controversies
made Republicans cringe.

have muttered tepid support
for the attorney general
while acknowledging concern about how the firings
and their aftermath looked.

defended the firings but criticized how they were

confidence in the attorney

support was conditioned on
Gonzales patching things up

Find ways to include stepchild in family

Dear Annie: My husbaml

18 months. and his 9-yearold stepson. "'Jason," stay s
with us every other week .
The boy is so clingy, jealous
and insecure that he is

walks over to his father to
make sure Dad is paying
attention to him. He will
interrupt our conversat ions

in order to hug and kiss his

Jason is getting on my

The Medina County

she retells the story of her

Suffering ftom (evangophobia'
Panic may strike in the
shelter of a Starbucks. when
a customer realizes that a
quote from evangelical
Rick
"The
superstar
Purpose Driven Life"
Warren is printed on some
coffee cups.
This would cause any
latte-sipping liberal to mutter "Oh my goddess" and
worry about legions of
Focus on the Family donors
invading Wiccan book clubs
in Unitarian sanctuaries
from sea to shining sea.
Does thinking about this
give you sweaty palms? If
so. writer Robert Lanham of
New York City believes you
may be suffering from
"evangophobia." ,
"It's a healthy fear .... The
evangelical right isn't the
new counterculture. It's the
new mainstream culture,"
notes Lanham, in his book
"The Sinner's Guide to the
Evangelical Right."
"Worst of all. many evangelicals aren't content
watching The 700 Club and
attending laser-light projections of the crucifixion at
the local · mega-church.
They want to transform the
culture you consume to tit
their standards . ... And compounded by the fact that
evangelicals often share
similar goals with conservative Jews, Catholics and Bill
O'Reilly, we may soon witness a ratings' sweeps plotline where Will marries
Gmce after attending a gay
deprogmmming class."
Lanham realizes that
evangelical
politicos
haven't won many national

victories on the hot-bunon
issues that worry him the
most - gay rights and
abonion. Nevertheless, he is
convinced that alliances
between
conservative
believers and secular conservatives have resulted in
"trickle down" policies on
taxes. health care. environmental laws and strategies
in the Middle East.
"Fundamentalists
of
every kind." he said, "keep
clinging to beliefs that can
be very destructive. They
are advocating religious
teachings that divide people, rather than bind them
together. ... They are always
on the attack.and if we don't
buckle down, the next thing
you know, they will be running the country- again."
It helps to understand that
Lanham grew up in a nondancing Southern Baptist
home in Richmond. Va.
Things got even worse. he
said, when he was a teenager and his parents joined the
kind of Pentecostal flock
that "used live camels in the
Easter pageant."
Virginia Commonwealth
University beckoned, where
Lanham majored in English
and religion and soon discovered that his activities

on Fridays and Saturdays
were trumping beliefs he
had been taught on
Sundays . Before long, he
was writing "The Hipster
Handbook" and his tiction
"Pre-Coitus,"
trilogy
"Coitus" and "Aftermath ."
The new book on evangelicals contains more of
what Publisher 's Weekly
called his unique brand of
"caricature assassination."
Thus. there are angry mini protiles of alpha males like
Dr. James Dobson ("The
Evangelical Pope"). Tim
LaHaye ("The Evangelical
Stephen King") and the
young Joel Osteen ("The
Evangelical P. Diddy").
Along the way. he mocks
the doctrine of the Trinity.
rips into the Gospel of John
and. with a note of sadness,
confesses that liberal mainline churches have become
fading enclaves for "old
people and pansies" who
use hymnals.
Lanham stressed that he
really doesn 't hate evangelicals.
conservative
Catholics, Orthodox Jews
and other traditionalists. He
does, however. believe that
most evangelicals are guilty
of "dumbing down the
faith" and consuming shoddy Christian consumer
goods that deserve ridicule.
Thus, his list of modern
evangelical commandments
includes statements such as :
• "Thou shalt live in the
suburbs. eat at the Olive
Garden and wear clothes
made from polyblend fabrics."
• "Thou shalt become

aware of pop culture trends
eight years after the fact and
co-opt these trends for
Christian culture."
• ''Thou shalt own a support the troops car magnet, a
fish bumper sticker and/or
an
embroidered
flag
sweater."
• ''Thou shalt not speak ill
of they neighbor. unless thy
neighbor is gay. Then it's
..
ok ay.
The key, said Lanham, is
that he - along with many
others on the religious left
- cannot accept the ancient
belief that the Christian
Gospel is the unique pathway to salvation. This is the
kind of doctrine that he
believes creates fear and
division.
Also, in the wake of the
Sexual Revolution, there is
one issue that towers over
all others today.
"It does seem that the
evangelical right has set out
to repeal the values of the
Woodstock generation," he
said. ''The key issue is gay
rights. I decided that I
couldn't stand back and let
'the James Dobsons of this
world continue to auack gay
people. That's the issue that
has made people like me
want to take the gloves off
and tight back."

and test the waters.
It is a major development
because Thompson has so
many undeniable qualifications for the nomination.
First and foremost, he is a
true-blue
conservative,
comfortable with all the
positions on social issuj:s
(abortion, gay rights, gun
control, etc.) that give
Rudy Giuliani so much difficulty and that have
inspired John McCain and
Mitt Romney to "flip-tlop"
in recent years to .curry
favor with social conservatives . In the second place.
he is (as his television
career demonstrates) an
immensely anractive personality at 64, with a rumpled and thoughtful charm.
Thirdly. his service for
eight years in the U.S.
Senate (four times Barack
Obama 's current tenure)
attests to his success as a
political leader. And final ly, he hails from a border
state - Tennessee - with
all that implies for electability in the South and
elsewhere.
Thompson 's biggest disadvantage may be that he
is entering the race rather
late , as things seem to be
shaping up this year. Many
of the big donors, and most
of the knowledgeable campaign managers. have
already been signed up by

one or another of the candidates who· have preceded
him into the race.
But in another respect his
timing is impeccable. The
millions of conservative
voters who constitute the
Republican Party 's base,
and whose support is going
to be indispensable to any
nominee who hopes to win
the election, have had visible difficulty generating
great enthusiasm for any of
the other candidates.
Giuliani is an outspoken
liberal on a good many
· important issues. McCain
is a bad-tempered maverick who has been all over
the map. Romney is a latecomer to various conservative causes, and anyway
he's a Mormon . But
Thompson is a loveable
natural-born conservative
without a tlyspeck on his
record. If he wades into the
race. he may excite conservatives as much as Obama
excites liberals, political
journalists and war protesters.
And by the way, if his
critics try 10 dismiss him as
just (or mostly) "an actor,"
don't forget what happened
the last time they tried that .

from sea to shining sea.
Does thinking about this
give you sweaty palms? If
so. writer Robert Lanham of
New York City believes you
may be suffering from
"evangophobia." ,
"It's a healthy fear .... The
evangelical right isn't the
new counterculture. It's the
new mainstream culture,"
notes Lanham, in his book
"The Sinner's Guide to the
Evangelical Right."
"Worst of all. many evangelicals aren't content
watching The 700 Club and
attending laser-light projections of the crucifixion at
the local · mega-church.
They want to transform the
culture you consume to tit
their standards . ... And compounded by the fact that
evangelicals often share
similar goals with conservative Jews, Catholics and Bill
O'Reilly, we may soon witness a ratings' sweeps plotline where Will marries
Gmce after attending a gay
deprogmmming class."
Lanham realizes that

victories on the hot-bunon
issues that worry him the
most - gay rights and
abonion. Nevertheless, he is
convinced that alliances
between
conservative
believers and secular conservatives have resulted in
"trickle down" policies on
taxes. health care. environmental laws and strategies
in the Middle East.
"Fundamentalists
of
every kind." he said, "keep
clinging to beliefs that can
be very destructive. They
are advocating religious
teachings that divide people, rather than bind them
together. ... They are always
on the attack.and if we don't
buckle down, the next thing
you know, they will be running the country- again."
It helps to understand that
Lanham grew up in a nondancing Southern Baptist
home in Richmond. Va.
Things got even worse. he
said, when he was a teenager and his parents joined the
kind of Pentecostal flock
that "used live camels in the
Easter pageant."
Virginia Commonwealth
University beckoned, where
Lanham majored in English
and religion and soon discovered that his activities

on Fridays and Saturdays
were trumping beliefs he
had been taught on
Sundays . Before long, he
was writing "The Hipster
Handbook" and his tiction
"Pre-Coitus,"
trilogy
"Coitus" and "Aftermath ."
The new book on evangelicals contains more of
what Publisher 's Weekly
called his unique brand of
"caricature assassination."
Thus. there are angry mini protiles of alpha males like
Dr. James Dobson ("The
Evangelical Pope"). Tim
LaHaye ("The Evangelical
Stephen King") and the
young Joel Osteen ("The
Evangelical P. Diddy").
Along the way. he mocks
the doctrine of the Trinity.
rips into the Gospel of John
and. with a note of sadness,
confesses that liberal mainline churches have become
fading enclaves for "old
people and pansies" who
use hymnals.
Lanham stressed that he
really doesn 't hate evangelicals.
conservative
Catholics, Orthodox Jews
and other traditionalists. He
does, however. believe that
most evangelicals are guilty
of "dumbing down the

Thus, his list of modern
evangelical commandments
includes statements such as :
• "Thou shalt live in the

• "Thou shalt become

The key, said Lanham, is
that he - along with many
others on the religious left
- cannot accept the ancient
belief that the Christian
Gospel is the unique pathway to salvation. This is the
kind of doctrine that he
believes creates fear and
division.
Also, in the wake of the
Sexual Revolution, there is
one issue that towers over
all others today.
"It does seem that the
evangelical right has set out
to repeal the values of the
Woodstock generation," he
said. ''The key issue is gay
rights. I decided that I
couldn't stand back and let

has made people like me

and test the waters.
It is a major development
because Thompson has so
many undeniable qualifications for the nomination.
First and foremost, he is a
true-blue
conservative,
comfortable with all the
positions on social issuj:s
(abortion, gay rights, gun
control, etc.) that give
Rudy Giuliani so much difficulty and that have
inspired John McCain and
Mitt Romney to "flip-tlop"
in recent years to .curry
favor with social conservatives . In the second place.
he is (as his television
career demonstrates) an
immensely anractive personality at 64, with a rumpled and thoughtful charm.
Thirdly. his service for
eight years in the U.S.
Senate (four times Barack
Obama 's current tenure)
attests to his success as a
political leader. And final ly, he hails from a border
state - Tennessee - with
all that implies for electability in the South and
elsewhere.
Thompson 's biggest disadvantage may be that he
is entering the race rather
late , as things seem to be
shaping up this year. Many
of the big donors, and most
of the knowledgeable campaign managers. have
already been signed up by

one or another of the candidates who· have preceded
him into the race.
But in another respect his
timing is impeccable. The
millions of conservative
voters who constitute the
Republican Party 's base,
and whose support is going
to be indispensable to any
nominee who hopes to win
the election, have had visible difficulty generating
great enthusiasm for any of
the other candidates.
Giuliani is an outspoken
liberal on a good many
· important issues. McCain
is a bad-tempered maverick who has been all over
the map. Romney is a latecomer to various conservative causes, and anyway
he's a Mormon . But
Thompson is a loveable
natural-born conservative
without a tlyspeck on his
record. If he wades into the
race. he may excite conservatives as much as Obama
excites liberals, political
journalists and war protesters.
And by the way, if his
critics try 10 dismiss him as
just (or mostly) "an actor,"
don't forget what happened
the last time they tried that .

Gnd seeks to raise up a people for Himself who "will

A lot of folk s describe
themse lves as being "spiritual," yet fail to see that true
spirituality is incomprehensibly more than the mere
appreciation of those things
that are unseen. It is rather
the product of our grappling
with the fact of God's activity in the world around us
and particularly His pursuit
of our own heans. He is a

WALTHAM , Mass.
His church started in his living room , growing steadily
as it moved wherever it
found space. from public
parks, to a YMCA to a former woodworking shop.
But by 2002. the New
Covenant Christian Church
of Cambridge was straining
the old shop's walls. and
Rev. Thomas St. Louis knew
more room was badlv needed. Then. the llnanci;il stre"
on the Boston Archdiocese
provided an opportunity for
St. Louis ' Haitian-American
congregation.
St. Louis ' church now
meets &lt;11 the former St.
Joseph Church in Waltham.
which was among 44
church buildings shut down
as 62 Roman Catholic
parishes were dissolved in a
broad consolidation in the
Boston Archdiocese that
began in 2004.
About half of the 26 church
propenies that have been sold
are being used for new housing, while eight were purchased by other churches,

Arlin~ton .

Jub1lee Christian Church
in Boston. one of New
England's largest churches,

purchased Our Lady of the
Rosary in Stoughton as a
satellite for about 2,000
members who live in that
area. Another Protestant
congregation. Greater Faith
Pentecostal Worship Center,
bought St. Joseph in
Boston's Hyde Park.
The
little-known
Swedenborgian church purchased Our Lady Help of
Christians in Concord. And
a Nazarene congregation
bought St. Alphonsus in
Danvers.
"Obviously we would
have preferred to continue
to operate these as Catholic
churches,"
said
Terry
Donilon, a spokesman for
the archdiocese . But, he
added, "in many cases, we
have helped other congregations carry on many ~ood
works in communllies.
where they work to benefit
people in need."
The church closings were
needed to deal with declining attendance, a priest
shortage and money woes
brought on in part by the
clergy sex abuse scandal.
When the archdiocese put
its properties on the market,

top price was a priority. but
it wasn't the only factor.
Community impact and
planned use of the property
were also considered.
For example, a proposal
for a health care center at St.
Boniface in Quincy was
nixed because it could have
involved counseling for
abortion, which the church
opposes. The property is
now being used by a YMCA
after-school program.
Founeen of the 26 church
buildings sold were slated for
housing - ranging from
subsidized units to luxury
housing. 1\vo other buildings
were sold separately to Tufts
University and Nonheastern
University. The former
Immaculate Conception in
Winchester is a day care center and Asuncion in
Lawrence was sold to be
used for commercial space.
In one of the most controversial sales to date, Saint
Mary Star of the Sea in East
Boston was sold by the
archdiocese for $850,000 to
become. a photography studio, then was quickly resold
for a $1.8 million profit to
the Universal Church. The

deal raised questions about his church purchased St.

Not a day goes by that we

in bright-eyed wo nde r at the
glorious work of our
Creator. Whenever the redgold light of daw n breaks
the bond s of night 's
embra.:e. we should celebrate anew the Father's provision of a brand new day.
Whenever we see the twinkling lights of heaven peering down at us from a velve t
sky or when the aura of the
waxing moon casts its silver
countenance upon the
wo rld. we should give
thanks to God. Whether we
stop. in quiet del ight when
spring blossoms color the
world or we fmd ourselves
stunned hy the shocking
repercussions of a blast of
thunderous lightning. awe
should fill our hearts and
pra tse of God fill our
mouths.
How muc· h more then

Mollohan

to be anything but a realm
of incubation as Creator
Gnd seeks to raise up a people for Himself who "will
love Him in Spirit and in
Truth" (John 4:23-24).
A lot of folk s describe
themse lves as being "spiritual," yet fail to see that true
spirituality is incomprehensibly more than the mere
appreciation of those things
that are unseen. It is rather
the product of our grappling
with the fact of God's activity in the world around us
and particularly His pursuit
of our own heans. He is a
God Who. having spoken
the world into exi stence
from a void of empty darkness. has made for Himself
of paramounl conl·ern our
welfare. sean:hing the world
over for hearts 01· men and
women and children that
will tum to Him. &lt;'pening up
to the sunlight c-f Hi s low
as spring tlo\;·ers do when a

warm morning sun shines
upon them. Through Jesus
Chri st we are given the
doorway to know God personally and be given a destiny otner than the one we'd
surely find if we remained
in our sin.lf you want to
know God, then you must
want to know Jesus. And if
you do know Jesus, then
you must want to make Him
known. "The Word became
flesh and made His
dwelling among us . We
have seen His glory, the
glory of the One and Only,
Who came from the Father.
full of grace and truth ... To
all who received Him, to
those who believed in His
name, He gave the right to
become children of God children born not of natural
descent. nor of human decision or a husband's will. but
born of God .. . For in Christ
all the fullness of the Deity
lives in bodily form. and
(children of God) have been
given fullness in Christ.
Who is the head over every
power and authority" (John
I: 1~ . I~ - 13; Colossians 2:910 NIV ).
lt ·s a strange thing that we
.:an be awestruck by natural
wonders and yet fail to be
knocked to our knees in fervent worship of the One

preached to you" (I Peter
1:21-25 NIV ).
So, while the world
screams by yo u, raci ng
madl y on its way to
nowhere, stop and place
your hand in the hand of
Him Who bore savage nail s
for you. While society paralyzes itself in pointless
squabbling over pointless
things, take upon yourself a
mantle of forgiveness and
renewal from the One Who
took upon Himself cruel
lashings for you. And while
the shrouds of hopelessness
and desp&lt;!ir entwine the
people of today. rise up in
the new life prepared for
you by the One Who laid
Himself in the arm s of
death so that . through His
resurrection , you might
have the surety that th is
God Who saves from the
penalty of sin, sav~ s from
the power of death.
(Thom Molloha11 and his

Who commands them. But
once we are caught up in the
perpetual novelty of Jesus.
His grace and glory overwhelm us. His wisdom and
power amaze us. And His
holiness and mercy humble
us.Only a "god" who is
truly boundless in every
way deserves the lifelong
passion and devotion that
our God deserves. And eve n
as we begin to appreciate
the majesty of this measureless God, as feeble as such
appreciation is, we have
finally begun to live out in
truth the meaning of life.
"Through
Him
yo u
believe in God. who raised
Him from the dead and glorified Him; and so your faith
and hope are in God. Now
that you have purified yourselves by obeying the truth
so that you have sincere
love for your brothers, love
one another deeply, from
the heart. For you have been
born again. not of perishable seed, but of imperishable, through the living and
enduring Word of God. For,
'All men are like grass, and
all their glory is like the
flowers of the field; the
grass withers and the llow ers fall , but the Word of the
Lord stands forever. ' And

Other denominations find new life in old Catholic churches

Now when St. Louis

"Honestl y from my heart.
I wish the Catholic church

Boston never had any problems to force the cardinal to
sell those churches. because
I know what those churches

But one positive result, he

WALTHAM , Mass.
His church started in his living room , growing steadily
as it moved wherever it
found space. from public
parks, to a YMCA to a former woodworking shop.
But by 2002. the New
Covenant Christian Church
of Cambridge was straining
the old shop's walls. and
Rev. Thomas St. Louis knew
more room was badlv needed. Then. the llnanci;il stre"
on the Boston Archdiocese
provided an opportunity for
St. Louis ' Haitian-American

meets &lt;11 the former St.
Joseph Church in Waltham.
which was among 44
church buildings shut down
as 62 Roman Catholic
parishes were dissolved in a
broad consolidation in the
Boston Archdiocese that
began in 2004.
About half of the 26 church
propenies that have been sold
are being used for new housing, while eight were purchased by other churches,

Arlin~ton .

Jub1lee Christian Church
in Boston. one of New
England's largest churches,

purchased Our Lady of the
Rosary in Stoughton as a
satellite for about 2,000
members who live in that
area. Another Protestant
congregation. Greater Faith
Pentecostal Worship Center,
bought St. Joseph in
Boston's Hyde Park.
The
little-known
Swedenborgian church purchased Our Lady Help of
Christians in Concord. And
a Nazarene congregation
bought St. Alphonsus in
Danvers.
"Obviously we would
have preferred to continue
to operate these as Catholic
churches,"
said
Terry
Donilon, a spokesman for
the archdiocese . But, he
added, "in many cases, we
have helped other congregations carry on many ~ood
works in communllies.
where they work to benefit
people in need."
The church closings were
needed to deal with declining attendance, a priest
shortage and money woes
brought on in part by the
clergy sex abuse scandal.
When the archdiocese put
its properties on the market,

top price was a priority. but
it wasn't the only factor.
Community impact and
planned use of the property
were also considered.
For example, a proposal
for a health care center at St.
Boniface in Quincy was
nixed because it could have
involved counseling for
abortion, which the church
opposes. The property is
now being used by a YMCA
after-school program.
Founeen of the 26 church
buildings sold were slated for
housing - ranging from
subsidized units to luxury
housing. 1\vo other buildings
were sold separately to Tufts
University and Nonheastern
University. The former
Immaculate Conception in
Winchester is a day care center and Asuncion in
Lawrence was sold to be
used for commercial space.
In one of the most controversial sales to date, Saint
Mary Star of the Sea in East
Boston was sold by the
archdiocese for $850,000 to
become. a photography studio, then was quickly resold
for a $1.8 million profit to
the Universal Church. The

deal raised questions about his church purchased St.

A Hunger For More
Not a day goes by that we
should fai l to look about us
in bright-eyed wo nde r at the
glorious work of our
Creator. Whenever the redgold light of daw n breaks
the bond s of night 's
embra.:e. we should celebrate anew the Father's provision of a brand new day.
Whenever we see the twinkling lights of heaven peering down at us from a velve t
sky or when the aura of the
waxing moon casts its silver
countenance upon the
wo rld. we should give
thanks to God. Whether we
stop. in quiet del ight when
spring blossoms color the
world or we fmd ourselves
stunned hy the shocking
repercussions of a blast of
thunderous lightning. awe
should fill our hearts and
pra tse of God fill our
mouths.
How muc· h more then
should 11 t' tremhk and gasp
at the itlL'reJihle grm:" of
God Wh,, reac·hed down to
humanitl through the outspread hands ,~- His Son,
Jesus'' .-\nJ what a famished
life is his who does not
pause and engage the spiritual spheres of hi s life. perhaps not recognizing that
the short time we spend

ATLANTA (AP) - A
college baseball coach
injured in a bus crash that
killed fiv e of his players
and
injured
28
was
released from the hospital
Thursday, and sa id the
hardest part was not being
able to be wit h his close·
knit team to help them
gn eve.
" It's hard not to be there
as their coach," James
Grandey said outside the
ho spital. " I want to help
them through th e process ."
Grandey , the baseball
coach
at
Blu ffton
Uni versity in Ohio, was
injured along with 28 play·
ers in the Marc h 2 cras h on
Inters tate 75 in Atlanta.
Five players. and the bus
driver and his wife, were
killed.

Grandey, who suffered
multiple broken facial
bones , said that God brings
only &gt;i tuation s that people
can handl e.
" I wonder why I survived ... I don't know , God
ha s
a
reason,"
said
Grandey. 29, dark brui ses
under h is eyes and his jaw
still partially wired shut.
"There's a reason for those
that dido 't survive as well.
We ' ll never know that
a nswer until we ou rselves
pass away."
Grandey added, " In some
way we ' ll have to find a
way to 1urn thi s into a ·positi ve."
Gran dey, who sat in the
front seat of the bus, he
said he remembers nothing
of the cras h.
"The last thing I remem ·

ber is turnin g 1he DVD
player oil and laying down
to go to sleep ," he said .
"The nex t thing I know I'm
silting in the median , try ing to figure out how we
fell."
Investigators said the bus
driver apparently mistook
the ramp for a re gular
highway lane, traveling up
it at " hi ghway &gt;peed s."
The bus than crashed i~to a
concrete barrier at a Tintersection at the top of
the ramp, flipped off the
overpass and fell JO fe et
back onto the interstate .

being consistent, and I feel
I've been very consistent
so · far ," Chacon said.

NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament- Rrst Round

Xavier outlasts BYU, awaits matchup
with Buckeyes and former coach Matta
LEXINGTON. Ky. (AP)- With the
game on the line, no one had to
encourage the smallest player on the
floor to take over for Xavier.
Drew Lavender wants the ball in
those situations .
The fearless 5-foot- 7 transfer from
Oklahoma. made two clutch floaters in
the lane, then grabbed a crucial
rebound and sank two free throws to
finish a six -point flurry in the final two
minutes to help ninth-seeded
Musketeers
beat
eighth-seeded .
Brigham Young 79-77 m the first
round of the South Regional Thursday
ni§ht.
'That's his nature. He comes from a
basketball family. He comes from a
high school progra'm that breeds
toughness," Xavier coach Sean Miller
said. "You don't have to tell a player
like that what to do at the end of a
game."
Justin Doellman sco~ 23 points
and Lavender finished with 17 to helJ?
Xavier (25-8) advance beyond the first
round for the fourth time m its last five
NCAA appearances. The Atlantic 10
co-regular season champions will face
top-seeded Ohio State and former
Musketeers coach Thad Matta in the
second round .
"It's hard enough to make the tournament . It's even harder to advance .
We're glad to be in the seat we're in,"
said Miller, who was associate head
coach under Mana at Xavier for three
years.
"Clearly they're not 31 -3 because
they're OK. They're 31-3 because
they're a terrific team, well coached.
in a system they believe in. We're
going to try our best. It's going to be a
difficult task."
Xavier trailed by as many as nine
before Lavender. Doellman and BJ.
Raymond hit 3-pointers during a 16-3
run that turned a 52-44 deficit into a
60-55 lead. BYU (25-9) battled back
to take a 73-71 lead with 2:10 to go,
but couldn't stop Lavender down the
stretch.

Lexington, Ky., on Thursday.
24 points, including a layup at the
buzzer. Mike Rose scored 15 on 3pointers and Austin Ainge added 12
for the Cougars.
Xavier reserve freshman forward
Derrick Brown had 16 rebounds .
BYU has not made it out of first
round of the NCAA tournament since
1993 when it beat SMU before losing
to Kansas in the round of 32. The
Cougars also made quick exits in
1995, 2001, 2003 and 2004.
Ainge, the son of former BYU and
NBA star Danny Ainge. said the
Cougars fifth consecutive lirst-round
loss does not detract from a rewarding
season that saw the Cougars win the
Mountain West regular season title BYU's first outright conference crown
since 1988.
"I don't think it takes away from
that, but it left something unfinished,"
Ainge said. "It's a goal we put at the

end of the year. We didn't quite get it
done, and that hurts."
Although beating BYU hardly is a
major upset , Xavier has a solid history
of success against higher seeded teams
in the tourney.
The Musketeers advan&lt;:ed to the
round of eight as a No. 7 seed three
years ago. and anyone who thinks they
might be intimidated facing Ohio State
needs to know this: the Musketeers
feel they ' re capable of playing with
anyone after gomg 5-l during the regular season agai nst teams that made
this year's tournament.
Matta was coaching Xavier when
the Musketeers advanced beyond the
first round in 2002, 2003 and 2004. He
left the Cincinnati school for Ohio
State a few months after leading the
improbable run to the regional finals
three years ago.
Three current Xavier starters Doellman. Justin Cage and Brandon
Cole - were contributors on that
team .
Ainge, who took over BYU's starting point guard role after Rashaun
Broadus was suspended in early
January, made 3 of 7 shots in the opening half. including a 3- pointer that put
the Cougars up 38-32 at the half.
The 6-foot-2 senior only averaged
7 .R points this season, but has been
more of an offensive threat lately. He's
scored in double ligures in seven of
the last nine games after doing it just
seven times in BYU's first 24.
The Cougars looked like they might
ready to put an end to their recent tournament frustrations when Young delivered three quick baskets and Jimmy
Balderson hit a 3-pointer during a
spurt that carried BYU to a 49-40 lead .
Lavender's floater tied it at 73, then
the Xavier point guard made another
for a 75-73 lead. After BYU tied for
the last time on Lee Cummard's putbad, Xavier went ahead for good on
Josh Duncan's layup with 34.2 seconds left.
"We had a lot of times." Young said,
"where we should have made plays
and closed the game out."

BY JtM O'CONNEU
ASSOCIATED PRESS

The lack of offense on the
ftrst day of the NCAA tournament was downright offensive as four losing teams
failed to break the 50-point
mark.
That matched the total for
the entire ftrst round last year
and was double the total for
the fli'St two days of the 2005
tournament.
Marquette.
George
Washington. Weber State aild
Old Dominion all failed to hit
half-a-hundred in losing by
average of 21 points. All four
of the teams carne into the
tournament
averaging
between 72 and 70 J?Oints.
It definitely wasn t a day of
nail-biters.
Only
Virginia
Commonwealth's victory
over Duke and Xavier's win
over Brigham Young, both by
the score 79-77, were decided
by less than nine points.
Vanderbilt's 77-44 win over
George Washington was the
biggest of the bfowouts.
YOUNG
BLOOD:
Freshmen have been in the
headlines all season, so it
made sense that one of them
came up with the fli'St big
performance of the NCAA
tournament.
Stephen Curry of Davidson
had 30 points in the Wildcats'
82-70 first-round loss to
Maryland.
Second only to Kevin
Durant of Texas among the
nation's freshmen in scorin~.
Curry kept 13th-seeded
Davidson in the game until
the final minutes .
Durant, who plays Friday
night against New Mexico
State, averaged 25.6 points
this season. while Curry. the
son of former NBA guard
Dell C\111)'. averaged 21.2.
They were the only freshmen

among the top 30 scorers in
the country.
The 6-foot-1 Cull)' was 9for-21 from the field and 7for-7 from the free throw
line.
"He's for real," Maryland
coach Gary Williams srud. "I
told him after the game, 'You
could play anywhere."'
SOUR STREAK: Penn's
68-52 loss to Texas A&amp;M
was the Quakers' ninth
straight in the NCAA tournament, a streak that dates to a
second-round loss to Florida
in 1994.
The longest current streak
is held by Murray State at II
in a row, from a secondround loss to Kansas in 1988
throu~h last season. North
Carolma A&amp;T has also lost
nine straight (1982-1995) and
Holy Cross, which plays
Southern Illinois on Friday,
has dropped eight straight
from a regional fmal loss to
LSU in 1953 to 2003.
STOPPING 3s: Belmont's
Andy Wicke came into the
first-round game against
Georgetown as one of the
country's best 3-point shooters. The Hoyas, who were
sixth in the country this season in 3-point percentage
defense, forced him into one
of his worst games of the season.
The 6-foot- 2 sophomore
was IOth in the nation this
season, hitting 46 percent
(75-for-164). fn the BruiiL~·

after capturing the MidContinent Conference tournament title. And they started
tentatively against Pitt,
seemingly overwhelmed by
the moment, missed their
first four shots, committed a
turnover and fell way behind.
The Panthers stormed to a
13-0 lead as Kendall, Mike
Cook and Graves each hit
wide-open 3-pointers in tile
first 94 seconds.
But with their band playing loudly and more than
400 fans cheering them on,
the Raiders finally got
untracked, and it was a
freshman who provided the
spark. After missing two
straight shots. Todd Brown
hit a reverse layup off a
missed 3 by Wood , then hit
two mid-range jumpers.
And atier Keith Benjamin
followed his own miss to
give Pitt a 21-10 lead at
12:03, Wright State reeled
off a 12- 1 run to tie it.
Wilson started the spurt with
a long 3 from left wing,
William Graham hit a curling hook off the glass. and
Wood fmished it with a 3
from right wing to make it
22-all at ls:32.
Young, who led Pitt with .
12 points in the half, swished
a 3 from right wing, Ramon
followed with another 3
from left wing, and Graves
rattled in a 3 ·from the right
corner to put Pitt ahead 3527.
Gray's three-point play
gave Pitt its biggest lead, 6845, with 8 minutes left.

NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament- Rrst Round

Xavier outlasts BYU, awaits matchup
with Buckeyes and former coach Matta
LEXINGTON. Ky. (AP)- With the
game on the line, no one had to
encourage the smallest player on the
floor to take over for Xavier.
Drew Lavender wants the ball in
those situations .
The fearless 5-foot- 7 transfer from
Oklahoma. made two clutch floaters in
the lane, then grabbed a crucial
rebound and sank two free throws to
finish a six -point flurry in the final two
minutes to help ninth-seeded
Musketeers
beat
eighth-seeded .
Brigham Young 79-77 m the first
round of the South Regional Thursday
ni§ht.
'That's his nature. He comes from a
basketball family. He comes from a
high school progra'm that breeds
toughness," Xavier coach Sean Miller
said. "You don't have to tell a player
like that what to do at the end of a
game."
Justin Doellman sco~ 23 points
and Lavender finished with 17 to helJ?
Xavier (25-8) advance beyond the first
round for the fourth time m its last five
NCAA appearances. The Atlantic 10
co-regular season champions will face
top-seeded Ohio State and former
Musketeers coach Thad Matta in the
second round .
"It's hard enough to make the tournament . It's even harder to advance .
We're glad to be in the seat we're in,"
said Miller, who was associate head
coach under Mana at Xavier for three
years.
"Clearly they're not 31 -3 because
they're OK. They're 31-3 because
they're a terrific team, well coached.
in a system they believe in. We're
going to try our best. It's going to be a
difficult task."
Xavier trailed by as many as nine
before Lavender. Doellman and BJ.
Raymond hit 3-pointers during a 16-3
run that turned a 52-44 deficit into a
60-55 lead. BYU (25-9) battled back
to take a 73-71 lead with 2:10 to go,
but couldn't stop Lavender down the
stretch.

24 points, including a layup at the
buzzer. Mike Rose scored 15 on 3pointers and Austin Ainge added 12
for the Cougars.
Xavier reserve freshman forward
Derrick Brown had 16 rebounds .
BYU has not made it out of first
round of the NCAA tournament since
1993 when it beat SMU before losing
to Kansas in the round of 32. The
Cougars also made quick exits in
1995, 2001, 2003 and 2004.
Ainge, the son of former BYU and
NBA star Danny Ainge. said the
Cougars fifth consecutive lirst-round
loss does not detract from a rewarding
season that saw the Cougars win the
Mountain West regular season title BYU's first outright conference crown
since 1988.
"I don't think it takes away from
that, but it left something unfinished,"
Ainge said. "It's a goal we put at the

end of the year. We didn't quite get it
done, and that hurts."
Although beating BYU hardly is a
major upset , Xavier has a solid history
of success against higher seeded teams
in the tourney.
The Musketeers advan&lt;:ed to the
round of eight as a No. 7 seed three
years ago. and anyone who thinks they
might be intimidated facing Ohio State
needs to know this: the Musketeers
feel they ' re capable of playing with
anyone after gomg 5-l during the regular season agai nst teams that made
this year's tournament.
Matta was coaching Xavier when
the Musketeers advanced beyond the
first round in 2002, 2003 and 2004. He
left the Cincinnati school for Ohio
State a few months after leading the
improbable run to the regional finals
three years ago.
Three current Xavier starters Doellman. Justin Cage and Brandon
Cole - were contributors on that
team .
Ainge, who took over BYU's starting point guard role after Rashaun
Broadus was suspended in early
January, made 3 of 7 shots in the opening half. including a 3- pointer that put
the Cougars up 38-32 at the half.
The 6-foot-2 senior only averaged
7 .R points this season, but has been
more of an offensive threat lately. He's
scored in double ligures in seven of
the last nine games after doing it just
seven times in BYU's first 24.
The Cougars looked like they might
ready to put an end to their recent tournament frustrations when Young delivered three quick baskets and Jimmy
Balderson hit a 3-pointer during a
spurt that carried BYU to a 49-40 lead .
Lavender's floater tied it at 73, then
the Xavier point guard made another
for a 75-73 lead. After BYU tied for
the last time on Lee Cummard's putbad, Xavier went ahead for good on
Josh Duncan's layup with 34.2 seconds left.
"We had a lot of times." Young said,
"where we should have made plays
and closed the game out."

BY JtM O'CONNEU
ASSOCIATED PRESS

The lack of offense on the
ftrst day of the NCAA tournament was downright offensive as four losing teams
failed to break the 50-point
mark.
That matched the total for
the entire ftrst round last year
and was double the total for
the fli'St two days of the 2005
tournament.
Marquette.
George
Washington. Weber State aild
Old Dominion all failed to hit
half-a-hundred in losing by
average of 21 points. All four
of the teams carne into the
tournament
averaging
between 72 and 70 J?Oints.
It definitely wasn t a day of
nail-biters.
Only
Virginia
Commonwealth's victory
over Duke and Xavier's win
over Brigham Young, both by
the score 79-77, were decided
by less than nine points.
Vanderbilt's 77-44 win over
George Washington was the
biggest of the bfowouts.
YOUNG
BLOOD:
Freshmen have been in the
headlines all season, so it
made sense that one of them
came up with the fli'St big
performance of the NCAA
tournament.
Stephen Curry of Davidson
had 30 points in the Wildcats'
82-70 first-round loss to
Maryland.
Second only to Kevin
Durant of Texas among the
nation's freshmen in scorin~.
Curry kept 13th-seeded
Davidson in the game until
the final minutes .
Durant, who plays Friday
night against New Mexico
State, averaged 25.6 points
this season. while Curry. the
son of former NBA guard
Dell C\111)'. averaged 21.2.
They were the only freshmen

among the top 30 scorers in
the country.
The 6-foot-1 Cull)' was 9for-21 from the field and 7for-7 from the free throw
line.
"He's for real," Maryland
coach Gary Williams srud. "I
told him after the game, 'You
could play anywhere."'
SOUR STREAK: Penn's
68-52 loss to Texas A&amp;M
was the Quakers' ninth
straight in the NCAA tournament, a streak that dates to a
second-round loss to Florida
in 1994.
The longest current streak
is held by Murray State at II
in a row, from a secondround loss to Kansas in 1988
throu~h last season. North
Carolma A&amp;T has also lost
nine straight (1982-1995) and
Holy Cross, which plays
Southern Illinois on Friday,
has dropped eight straight
from a regional fmal loss to
LSU in 1953 to 2003.
STOPPING 3s: Belmont's
Andy Wicke came into the
first-round game against
Georgetown as one of the
country's best 3-point shooters. The Hoyas, who were
sixth in the country this season in 3-point percentage

over Butler in the Horizon
League championship game.
The Raiders had won II of
their previous 12 games,
including two over Butler,
the fifth seeo in the Midwest.
The Raiders' only previous
trip to the NCAA tournament
in their 20 years in Division I
came in 1993, when they
were pounded 97-54 by
Indiana in the first round
after capturing the MidContinent Conference tournament title. And they started
tentatively against Pitt,
seemingly overwhelmed by
the moment, missed their
first four shots, committed a
turnover and fell way behind.
The Panthers stormed to a
13-0 lead as Kendall, Mike
Cook and Graves each hit
wide-open 3-pointers in tile
first 94 seconds.
But with their band playing loudly and more than
400 fans cheering them on,
the Raiders finally got
untracked, and it was a
freshman who provided the
spark. After missing two
straight shots. Todd Brown
hit a reverse layup off a
missed 3 by Wood , then hit
two mid-range jumpers.
And atier Keith Benjamin
followed his own miss to
give Pitt a 21-10 lead at
12:03, Wright State reeled
off a 12- 1 run to tie it.
Wilson started the spurt with
a long 3 from left wing,
William Graham hit a curling hook off the glass. and
Wood fmished it with a 3
from right wing to make it
22-all at ls:32.
Young, who led Pitt with .
12 points in the half, swished
a 3 from right wing, Ramon
followed with another 3
from left wing, and Graves
rattled in a 3 ·from the right
corner to put Pitt ahead 3527.
Gray's three-point play
gave Pitt its biggest lead, 6845, with 8 minutes left.

NASCAR This Week

LAS VEGAS - David Ragan finally
hit a bump in the road in the UAW·
DaimlerChrysler 400. For the 21-yearold rookie from Unadilla, Ga., it was
probably inevitable, but his performance in the season's first two races
was quite impressive.
Ragan spent the season's first two
weeks ranked fifth in the Nextel Cup
points standings. An early crash at Las
Vegas Motor Speedway dropped Ra·
gan all the way back to 19th place. The
points leader is Mark Martin, the driv·
er Ragan succeeded at Roush Racing.
Until his misfortune in Las Vegas,
Ragan was the only rookie ranked in
the top 10. Now there are none. The .
highest-ranked rookie, however, remains Ragan. Juan Pablo Montoya is
next, ranking 22nd in the standings.
Ragan's father, Ken, competed in a
total of SO Cup races from 1983
through 1990, finishing a career-best
lith at Talladega on July 29, 1984.
David, who finished 24th in the 2006
Craftsman Truck Series standings,
has never won in NASCAR's three major touring series, finished once in the
top five and had eight top-10 finishes
in trucks. Las Vegas marked only his
fifth Cup race.
Early results notwithstanding, he
admitted: "Just two races that we
popped out of the box and surprised
a few people, that's not going to do
anything. You might ask me how I'm
doing, maybe, after the July Daytona
race, but it's going to take some time.
"I got to race with some guys out in
Californil!, we had a great time racing
with each other, and I think as the year
goes on and we race with some different
people, you know, it's going to be a hard
process all year to be one of the guys.

LAS VEGAS - In the aftermath of the Mexico City race,
Ganassi teammates Juan Pablo
Montoya and Scott Pruett have
reached some common ground.
Sort of. Montoya's Busch Series victory came at Pruett's
expense. A bump from Montoya's Dodge resulted in a spin
by Pruett, who as leading late
in the race.
"Although I am still upset
that I dido 't win the race in
Mexico City or finish 1·2, I do
feel a lot better," said Pruett.
"I spoke to Juan Pablo, and he
apologized, and I do know that
what happened was not intentional on Juan's part
"Racing is an emotional
sport, and that's part of its
beauty. I've been in racing for
a long time, and sometimes
·these things happen."
"I feel bad that the whole situation happened and told Scott
that I was sorry about it," said
Montoya. "I completely under·
stand Scott's frustration , as I
would feel the same way"

•••

The Mexico controversy
&lt;;ontinued - Reactions to the
Montoya victory in Mexico he bumped teammate Scott
Pruett out of the way to win
the Busch Series race - con_tinued to be a hot topic.
"He (Montoya) certainly
could've made that pass the
next time around," said Mark
Martin, "and I think next time
be will. That didn't have to
take place for him to get his
win."
There were also many grumblings about NASCAR's admin·
istration of the Mexico race.
Other drivers alleged that offi.
cials allowed Montoya to speed
on pit road, blend in improperly afte r exiting and jump
restarts during his tantalizing
charge through the field in the
waning laps.

tage of them, and he was opti·
mistic about the potential ef·
feet of the Busch Series victo·
ry on his Nextel Cup career.
"I think it is a big boost," he
said. "It shows we can deliver
and get the job done. In a way,
it takes off a lot of pressure,
but at the same time, it puts a
lot of pressure on us. In a way,
I have a good chance of win·
ning a road course, but there
are only two road course races
against 34 oval (races). You
want to make sure you can be
competitive on the ovals. The
last race, it was a lot of hard
work in the race. We were re·
ally lucky on the yellows . By
the end, we had a good race
car."

•

Viva ... Viva ... Las Vegas!
Though he'd never won here,
Tony Stewart spoke for many
others when he described how
much he enjoyed the Nextel
Cup Series' annual visit.
"I love going lo Vegas,'' he
But still - Montoya didn't said. "You've got the stock-car
make the calls. He took advan- track du ring the day. You've

•

got the (adjoin·
ing) dirt track at
night. If you
want to stay up
real late, you've
got everything
Vegas has to of·
fer. If you can't
have fun in Ve·
gas, then you're pretty bard to
entertain."

•

Plenty of time - No need to
panic. All is well. That was
Dale Earnhardt Jr.'s basic re·
sponse to what had been an
abysmal start to the season.
"We're
not
happy about it,"
he said; "but
we're keeping
our heads up.
We've had some
rough starts bef.ore and come
back strong.
"As a team, you
can't let it be a
distraction. We ha ve to go out
and run eve ry lap as hard as
possible and not worry about
it. This team has always per·

formed well when the pressure
is on, and I expect nothing less
this week."

not there is a tangible reason
why Martin's addition to Gmn
Racing seems to have raised
the competitiveness of team·
mates Joe Nemecbek and Ster·
ling Marlin is difficult to determine, but Nemecbek raved
about Martin's influence.
"Mark ·has been a huge asset," said Nemecbek. "He bas
assisted all of us in many ways.
Martin's addition - be's only
scheduled to run 23 races,
though be now leads the point
standings - is emblematic of
advantages stemming from
Bobby Ginn's purchase of the
team late last year.
"I know Mark bas been get·
ting pestered pretty bard with
the same questions about his
upcoming schedule, said Ne·
mecbek, "but be's a pro and
will handle the attention witb
the same kind of ease he does
with a race car.
"Nobody deserves it more."

NASCAR This Week

LAS VEGAS - David Ragan finally
hit a bump in the road in the UAW·
DaimlerChrysler 400. For the 21-yearold rookie from Unadilla, Ga., it was
probably inevitable, but his performance in the season's first two races
was quite impressive.
Ragan spent the season's first two
weeks ranked fifth in the Nextel Cup
points standings. An early crash at Las
Vegas Motor Speedway dropped Ra·
gan all the way back to 19th place. The
points leader is Mark Martin, the driv·
er Ragan succeeded at Roush Racing.
Until his misfortune in Las Vegas,
Ragan was the only rookie ranked in
the top 10. Now there are none. The .
highest-ranked rookie, however, remains Ragan. Juan Pablo Montoya is
next, ranking 22nd in the standings.
Ragan's father, Ken, competed in a
total of SO Cup races from 1983
through 1990, finishing a career-best
lith at Talladega on July 29, 1984.
David, who finished 24th in the 2006
Craftsman Truck Series standings,
has never won in NASCAR's three major touring series, finished once in the
top five and had eight top-10 finishes
in trucks. Las Vegas marked only his
fifth Cup race.
Early results notwithstanding, he
admitted: "Just two races that we
popped out of the box and surprised
a few people, that's not going to do
anything. You might ask me how I'm
doing, maybe, after the July Daytona
race, but it's going to take some time.
"I got to race with some guys out in
Californil!, we had a great time racing
with each other, and I think as the year
goes on and we race with some different
people, you know, it's going to be a hard
process all year to be one of the guys.

LAS VEGAS - In the aftermath of the Mexico City race,
Ganassi teammates Juan Pablo
Montoya and Scott Pruett have
reached some common ground.
Sort of. Montoya's Busch Series victory came at Pruett's
expense. A bump from Montoya's Dodge resulted in a spin
by Pruett, who as leading late
in the race.
"Although I am still upset
that I dido 't win the race in
Mexico City or finish 1·2, I do
feel a lot better," said Pruett.
"I spoke to Juan Pablo, and he
apologized, and I do know that
what happened was not intentional on Juan's part
"Racing is an emotional
sport, and that's part of its
beauty. I've been in racing for
a long time, and sometimes
·these things happen."
"I feel bad that the whole situation happened and told Scott
that I was sorry about it," said
Montoya. "I completely under·
stand Scott's frustration , as I
would feel the same way"

•••

•

The Mexico controversy
&lt;;ontinued - Reactions to the
Montoya victory in Mexico he bumped teammate Scott
Pruett out of the way to win
the Busch Series race - con_tinued to be a hot topic.
"He (Montoya) certainly
could've made that pass the
next time around," said Mark
Martin, "and I think next time
be will. That didn't have to
take place for him to get his
win."
There were also many grumblings about NASCAR's admin·
istration of the Mexico race.
Other drivers alleged that offi.
cials allowed Montoya to speed
on pit road, blend in improperly afte r exiting and jump
restarts during his tantalizing
charge through the field in the
waning laps.

tage of them, and he was opti·
mistic about the potential ef·
feet of the Busch Series victo·
ry on his Nextel Cup career.
"I think it is a big boost," he
said. "It shows we can deliver
and get the job done. In a way,
it takes off a lot of pressure,
but at the same time, it puts a
lot of pressure on us. In a way,
I have a good chance of win·
ning a road course, but there
are only two road course races
against 34 oval (races). You
want to make sure you can be
competitive on the ovals. The
last race, it was a lot of hard
work in the race. We were re·
ally lucky on the yellows . By
the end, we had a good race
car."

•

Viva ... Viva ... Las Vegas!
Though he'd never won here,
Tony Stewart spoke for many
others when he described how
much he enjoyed the Nextel
Cup Series' annual visit.
"I love going lo Vegas,'' he
But still - Montoya didn't said. "You've got the stock-car
make the calls. He took advan- track du ring the day. You've

•

got the (adjoin·
ing) dirt track at
night. If you
want to stay up
real late, you've
got everything
Vegas has to of·
fer. If you can't
have fun in Ve·
gas, then you're pretty bard to
entertain."

•

Plenty of time - No need to
panic. All is well. That was
Dale Earnhardt Jr.'s basic re·
sponse to what had been an
abysmal start to the season.
"We're
not
happy about it,"
he said; "but
we're keeping
our heads up.
We've had some
rough starts bef.ore and come
back strong.
"As a team, you
can't let it be a
distraction. We ha ve to go out
and run eve ry lap as hard as
possible and not worry about
it. This team has always per·

formed well when the pressure
is on, and I expect nothing less
this week."

not there is a tangible reason
why Martin's addition to Gmn
Racing seems to have raised
the competitiveness of team·
mates Joe Nemecbek and Ster·
ling Marlin is difficult to determine, but Nemecbek raved
about Martin's influence.
"Mark ·has been a huge asset," said Nemecbek. "He bas
assisted all of us in many ways.
Martin's addition - be's only
scheduled to run 23 races,
though be now leads the point
standings - is emblematic of
advantages stemming from
Bobby Ginn's purchase of the
team late last year.
"I know Mark bas been get·
ting pestered pretty bard with
the same questions about his
upcoming schedule, said Ne·
mecbek, "but be's a pro and
will handle the attention witb
the same kind of ease he does
with a race car.
"Nobody deserves it more."

One of the major causes of death in
America is drowning. Because they have
stopped breathin~, drowning victims can
die within 4-6 nunutes.
• Begin rescue breathing upon reaching
the victim in the water, even if several
minutes have elapsed.
• Once on shore, follow the ABC's of
· Emergency Action. Move the head or
neck as little as possible because of the
possibility of a broken neck.
• Have someone phone for medical
help.
·
• Don't attempt to drain water from the
victim's lungs~
• If you cannot ventilate after two
attempts, treat as choking and use abdominal thrusts (Heimlich Maneuver) and
continue rescue breathing.
• Even if ,the victims seems all right,
insist he/she be seen at an emergency
facility. Near drowning can be fatal hours
after the incident occurs.
· Remember:

'circumstances.

In most cases, broken bones are not life
threatening. If you suspect a person of having a broken bone, keep him calm and call
for help. Do not move victim, unless they
are in immediate danger of further injury.
Examine the injury site for:
• Severe pain upon touch
• Swelling deformity
• Pulse beyond the injury site
• Bond ends either through or below
the skin

Adult CPR

• Open the airway using the Head-TiltChin Lift Technique. Establish the breathlessness (look, listen and feel for air
exchange.)
• Give two slow breaths (l - 1 1/2'
seconds per breath). Breaths are given
with a pause between for the rescuer to
take a breath and to observe if the victim has exhaled. Check for pulse
(carotid pulse). If absent, phone for
medical help.
• Finding correct hand placement is
important. With the middle and index
fingers of one hand, find the notch
where the ribs meet the breastbone (sternum). Place the middle finger on the
notch with the index finger next to it.
• Place the heel of the other hand on
the sternum next to and above your index
finger. At the point, move your fingers
