both adding significant
weight to the corn stalks
and weakening the soil that
we had piled up around the
plants causing them to fall
again. Needless to say, we
were crestfallen over our
fallen corn. We seized the
narrow window of opportunit) between other responsibilities and stood the
plants up yet again.
Maybe our diligence in
trying to grow upright corn
will eventually pay off.
Maybe they will yet yield a
harvest worth the efforts of
cultivating the soil, sowing
the seed, pulling the weeds,
and plucking the ears. Only
time wil1 tell.
Our misadventures in trying to keep the corn upright
remind me a little of God's
efforts in growing an
''upright" people who He
intends also to produce a
harvest.
If we appreciate the fact
that God personally engages
His people m a covenant
relationship (complete with
mutual benefits and responsibilities), then we must recognize the trial that we must
be to Him at times as we
frequently demonstrate a
failure at being "upright."
The spiritual alignment of
a Christian is, in a sense, a
vertical one. This is not a
description of a physical
stance but of a spiritual one,
in case anyone thought that
the human body is some
sort of cosmic rabbit ears:
lifting your left arm over
your head, for example, and
holding your right leg backward in the air will in no
way improve the effectiveness of your prayers. No,
living in spiritually vertical
alignment (which is to say
''living an upright life")
simply means living a life
focused on God and His
Word while manifesting a
straightforward commitment for "God-likeness" in
attitude and character. This
orientation which is not
native to us is the result of a
life redeemed by Jesus' sacrifice and a heart that is
transformed by God's grace.

brings
salvation

Religion News in Brief

A Hunger For More
An unusually heavy rainstorm in July had the effect
of knocking down our rows
of corn in the little spot of
garden that our family had
planted in the spting. My
mother-in-Jaw informed us
at she had heard an expert
a garden news segment
remark that since we have
been having an especially
wet summer. the roots of
com plants had not grown
downward as deeply as they
generally do making them
very susceptible to being
knocked down. Being of
the opinion that corn growing vertically would do
much better than corn lying
flat on the ground. my wife.
Diane. and r laboriously
restored them to upright
positions by carefully
standing each individual
plant up and then packing
soil around their roots.
The rains of the past
week have, of course, been
pretty rough on gardens
everywhere. Our second
planting of corn in our tiny
garden suffered a lot from
it in fact. On Monday, the
few short but heavy rains
early in the day knocked a
t of the corn down. I was
ot home at the time so my
•
wife diligently set herself
to the task of restoring
them to an upright stance
and, when our family left to
run some errands, the garden was in fairly decent
shape. But then we had our
"gulley
washer"
on
Monday e,vening. It was
dark by the time we arrived
home so we were not able
to
investigate
things,
although visions of desolation in the corn rows haunted our · dreams. Sure
enough. the next morning
when we investigated, we
found that the four new
rows of corn had all fallen.
smashed down flat by the
torrents of rain that had
fallen only 12 hours earlier.
Sadly. we had too many
things to do to do much
about the damage. We did
not manage to do an
ntervention" until midternoon. We hurriedly
shed out to fix what we
could before we had to
leave again. A lot of the
" stalks were actually pro, ken or had begun to curve
(their growth as they lay
on the ground bending
them towards the sunlight). Still, it was mostly
back 111 shape by the time
we had to leave again.
Early on Wednesday
morning, however, Diane
went out again to the garden and discovered that
another rain had fallen,

passions. and to live selfcontrolled. upright and
godly lives in the this present age. while we wait for
the blessed hope - the glorious appearing of our great
God and Savior, Jesus
Christ, Who gave Himself
for us to redee~m us from all
wickedness and to purify
for Himself a people that
are His very own, eager to
do what is good" (Titus
2:11-14 NIV).
We might be considered a
•·trial'' to God therefore
when we lean towards
either the various distractions that come our way or
give in to our own compulsions (the remnants of the
old lives we lived before we
came to know Jesus as
Savior). Such "mild" and
subtle bendings in our character are little moments of
compromise or laziness that
erode a passionate following of Jesus. Naturally,
when '·heavy rains" of trouble, trial and temptation
come our way, we are
knocked flat into a mud of
failure and condemnation
from the world.
When Diane and I were
standing corn up for the
umpteenth time, I can tell
you that I seriously considered giving up on that corn.
But my wise· wife gently
reminded me of the reward
just on the other end of our
waiting and working, stalks
with full and ripened ears of
corn upon them. So I joined
her and set myself again to
the task of straightening out
that stubborn corn.
And I am sure too that
when we get knocked down
that the Lord is quick to
intervene in our lives in
order to stand us up again in
an upright relationship with
God. Through His Word He
"straightens us out" so that
you and I can live an
upright life, free to enjoy
our fellowship with Him
and His people, and ready
to produce a harvest of
praise and fruitful service to
God. The fruit of godliness
produced by living uprightly opens the door for a more
joyful life and opens the
door for those around us to
also , be touched by the
grace of God.

Fort Benning gets rabbi.
chaplain, new services
SAVANNAH, Ga. (AP)- The beating of
Jewish soldier in Army basic training last
fall has prompted Fort Benning to make
changes aimed at improving conditions for
Jewish troops, from adding a rabbi chaplain
to offering kosher meals at dining halls.
"We took a close look at ourselves and saw
where we could make some improvements,"
said Col. Scott Davis, senior chaplain at the
Anny post 111 west Georgia. "I wouldn't say
we're totally there yet. But I would say we're
definitely moving forward."
Religious tolerance became an issue at
Fort Benning after Pvt. Michael Handman,
20, suffered a concussion from a beating by
a fellow trainee. The attack came days after
Handman's parents alerted the Army that he
had complained of religious discrimination
in letters he had sent home.
The soldier accused of beating Handman
was kicked out the Army. Two drill sergeants
were also disciplined. One had ordered
Handman to remove his yarmulke in a dining hall. The other had called him "Juden"
- the German word for Jews. Handman was
later allowed to leave the Army.
Davis said that in the months since, other
steps have been taken.
Drill sergeants must attend classes on how
to accommodate soldiers of varying faiths.
Fort Benning plans to hold Jewish worship
services on Fridays and observe the holidays
of Yom Kippur and Rosh Hashanah on post,
rather than busing soldiers to a synagogue in
neighboring Columbus.
About two weeks ago, Fort Benning also
added a full-time Jewish chaplain, Maj.
Carlos Huerta, one of only a few rabbis
serving in the Army Chaplain Corps.
"I felt from the start that they were fairly
serious about trying to deal with some of this,"
said Bill Nigut, southeast regional director for
the Anti-Defamation League, who met with
Fort Benning commanders after Handman
was beaten. "It says they are integrating
Jewish life into the base activities."
Davis said there aren't many Jewish soldiers in basic training at Fort Benning at
any one time. He estimated about 20 or so.

Church built by
scandalized preacher
sold for $17.6 million
DECATUR, Ga. (AP) - A suburban
Atlanta cathedral built by a minister who
later lost his congregation after a sex scandal has been sold for $17.6 million.
The Cathedral at Chapel Hill built by
Bishop Earl Paulk will soon be home to
Greater Travelers Rest Baptist Church.
Paulk, who died in March at age 81 after a
battle with cancer. built the cathedral with his
brother, the Rev. Donnie Paulk. The church at
one time had a congregation of 10,000.
In the 1990s, several women said they
had had affairs with Paulk. One woman
claimed he molested her as a child while
another said he coerced her into an affair.
It was later revealed that Paulk fathered a
son with his brother's wife.
The Rev. D.E. Paulk, his son from that
affair, now leads the church. He said last
year that the church did not need the space
at the cathedral.
Listed for $24.5 million, the complex was
purchased for $17.6 million. It sits on an

almost 300,000-square-foot campus on 51
acres in south DeKalb County, and features
a 6,000-seat main auditorium, large fellowship hall, offices, classrooms and a theater.
Greater Travelers Rest will move to the
cathedral and sell its current facility about
four and a half miles away.

SC AG says religious
'I Believe' plates
are constitutional
COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP)- The top state
prosecutor supports religious license plates
that feature the words "I Believe" that are
being challenged in federal court.
Attorney General Henry McMaster
argued in a memo that the plates don't promote Christianity over other beliefs. just as
"Parrot Head" plates don't promote Jimmy
Buffett fans over fans of other singers, and
the Boy Scout plate doesn't show legislative preference over Girl Scouts.
"The plate is instead an accommodation to
Christians, just as the other plates are accommodations to Parrot Heads and fraternity and
sorority members,'' McMaster wrote.
He noted that South Carolina's more than
100 specialty plates include one that states.
"In Reason We Trust," which a secular
humanist group sponsored.
Americans United for Separation of
Church and State sued state officials last
year after lawmakers passed a bill creating
the plates, which also feature images of a
stained-glass window and a cross. The
group said South Carolina government is
endorsing Christianity by approving the
plates. A ruling is not expected until this fall.
Elizabeth Stevens, an attorney for
Washington-based Americans United, said
McMaster wrongfully lumps all specialty
license plates together, though they can be
made without lawmakers' approval. State
law allows private groups to create specialty plates as long as they first collect either a
$4,000 deposit or 400 prepaid orders, as
was done for "In Reason We Trust.''
"The Christian-only religious specialty
plate is the only religious one the Legislature
put its stamp of approval on," Stevens said.
South Carolina remains the only state to
approve the "I Believe" plates, Stevens said.
Lt. Gov. Andre Bauer has said the idea came
from Florida, but the proposal failed there.
The plates have not been produced in
South Carolina because of the lawsuit.

Group says jail officials
agree to quit censoring
religious materials
STAFFORD, Va. (AP) - Officials at a
Virginia jail have agreed to stop censoring
letters containing religious material sent to
inmates, a civil liberties group says.
The Rutherford Institute challenged the
Rappahannock Regional Jail's policy last
month after a woman complained that jail
officials cut out sections of letters she sent
to her son that contained Bible verses or
religious material. She said the jail cited
prohibitions on Internet material and religious material sent from home.
Rutherford said Monday that jail officials
have agreed to amend their policy. The
ACLU and several other civil liberties and
religious groups also complained about the
censorship.

Church offers 'Great Food for All' Local Events
GALLIPOLIS - "If you eat . . . you
qualify!"
That's the mantra of Great Food for All
(GFFA), a faith-based, non-denominational
company that offers discount bulk food products to consumers through a network of local
churches and other non-profit organizations,
which the company refers to as host sites.
From its home office in Newton Falls, Ohio,
Great Food for All currently provides service
to host sites in 14 states, with the widest distJibution in Ohio. The company celebrated its
one-year anniversary in June of this year.
First Church M the Nazarene in Gallipolis
is one of the local host sites in the MidOhio Valley.
Church members Doug and Elaine Brown
supervise the Great Food for All program at
First Church of the Nazarene. According to
Mrs. Brown, the response ·to GFFA has
been positive and many people have taken
advantage of the savings.
"Our minimum order so far has been $700 ,"
she said. "It's a good alternative for stretching
food dollars in a tough economy. The meals
ru:e balanced and the food js healthy."
·Great Food for All offers numerous menu
options. The Basic Box, called the anchor
of the GFFA program, comes stocked with
enough food to feed a family of four for
at&gt;out a week. Estimated to be a $60 to $80

retail value, according the GFFA Website
greatfoodforall.com, the Basic Box is made
available to the public for $30.
Other food box choices include the
Empty Nester ($20), Senior Meals ($28).
Kids Box ($14), Breakfast Box ($16). Pasta
Box ($20), Steak Box ($38), Stuffed
Chicken Box ($20). Seafood Special ($.20)
and 10-pound Chicken Box ($16).
Since the menu varies from month to
month, the Browns advise consumers to
check the GFFA Website often to keep up
with any changes.
The Browns accept Great Food for All
orders before and after all services at First
Church of the Nazarene, located at 1110
First Ave., Gallipolis. Service times are
10:40 a.m. and 6 p.m. on Sunday. and 7
p.m. on Wednesday. Orders placed locally
at the church must be paid in cash.
Mrs. Brown said orders can also be placed
online at the Website greatfoodforall.com.
Look for the button on the left-hand side of
the home page that reads "Find A Host
Site/Order Online" and follow the drrections. She noted that Great Food for All
charges a $1 service fee for online orders.
The distribution schedule varies each
month and more information is ava(lable at
the website or by contacting the Browns at

years. We love each other
deeply, and I would never
dream of hurting him. I
recently had a friendly
lunch with ''Pete," my oldest and dearest friend.
Afterward. I realized I still
have deep feelings for him.
Pete and I have lunch regularly, and my attraction to
him has been growing.
Jim and I are still madly
in love, and we have a fantastic relationship. We are
the parents of three young
children. and I am now
pregnant with twins. Annie,
I slept with Pete and am not
sure whose babies they are.
How can I solve this problem without hurting either
of them? - Pregnant and

Dear Pregnant: What is
this? "Days of Our Lives"?
If you love Jim and wish to
stay married to him, you
have to stop seeing Pete.

expect it won't eventually
destroy your family. This is

miles north of the Seychelles. Challenging a global aversion to guns aboard ships, France has put troops on tuna boats

Shoot at the pirates?
West weighs anning ships
BY CHRISTOPHER TORCHIA
ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER

ISTANBUL
Challenging a global aversion to guns aboard ships,
France has put troops on
tuna boats in the Indian
Ocean, and Belgium is
offering military units to its
merchant vessels off the
Horn of Africa. Now, U.S.
lawmakers are weighing
similar action to fight piracy.
Opponents fear such
moves will escalate the violence and raise a minefield
of legal issues.
In June, the U.S. House of
Representatives passed an
amendment that would
require the Department of
Defense to put armed teams
on U.S.-flagged ships passing
through
high-risk
waters, specifically around
the Horn of Africa where
Somali pirates have become
a scourge of world shipping.
The amendment now goes
to the Senate. A separate bill
introduced last month would
grant immunity from prosecution in American courts to
any "owner, operator, time
charterer, master, or mariner
who uses force, or authorizes
the use of force, to defend a
vessel of the United States
against an act of piracy."
Both measures face tough
debate - U.S. military
resources are spread thin
and onboard weapons, especially in the hands of civilian crew, are seen as an
extreme option.
"Work and watch-keeping
take up most of a seafarer's
day," Sam Dawson of the
International
Transport
Workers' Federation, which
represents hundreds of
unions, told The Associated
Press by e-mail. "The practice, handling and use of
weapons would be a duty
too far."
But there is a strong push
for action following the
April seizure of the MY
Maersk Alabama.
That standoff, which
transfixed the American
public, ended with the
killing of three pirates by
Navy SEAL snipers and the
release of the vessel's captain, Richard Phillips.
The wider potential fallout from the Western initiatives is uncertain because
countries such as the
Philippines, which supplies
most of the world's ship
crews, don't have the
resources to protect them.
Besides, the laws of many
nations prevent vessels
from carrying weapons, historically for fear they would
be used by mutineers.
A range of maritime
groups and insurers oppose
arming ships because of liability issues and fears that
violence could provoke an
arms race with the pirates.
Still, some ship-owners hire
private guards; Israeli commercial boats are believed
to routinely carry arms.

"What the Americans do
will not necessarily lead the
way in terms of the global
shipping industry," said
Daniel
Sekulich,
the
Toronto-based author of
"Terror on the Seas: True
Tales of Modern Day
Pirates."
Sekulich said a global
trend could take hold if
international groups such as
the U.N. International
Maritime
Organization
develop a comprehensive
approach to arming ships. In
the meantime, he said, the
U.S.
initiatives
could
encourage a "two-tiered or
three-tiered system" in
which a few wealthy
nations protect ships flying
their flags, while pirates
prey on softer targets.
International
patrols,
including U.S., European,
Chinese, Russian and
Indian ships, have reduced
the success rate of Somali
attacks. But with ransoms
running into millions of dollars, pirates have adapted,
raiding boats far into the
Indian Ocean.
Advocates say onboard
teams with weapons would
deter or defeat ragtag bands
of pirates in flimsy skiffs.
On April 25, pirates tried to
board the Italian cruise liner
MSC Melody as it headed
in the Indian Ocean from
southern Africa to Europe,
but Israeli private guards
opened fire
and the
assailants departed.
For opponents, the worstcase scenario is pirates getting bigger weapons.
"It's something that could
actually stoke up the
attacks, take the attacks to a
higher level," said Andrew
Linington of London-based
Nautilus International, a
union that represents 24,000
mariners, most of whom
work on British- or Dutchregistered ships.
But internal
polling
among Nautilus members
has indicated a "hardening
of attitudes" in recent
months, with more calling
for
armed
protection,
Linington said.
This
summer,
the
Netherlands turned down a
plea from parliament to put
marines on especially vulnerable,
slow-moving
Dutch vessels threatened by
Somali pirates. The refusal
was based on fear that
pirates could react more
violently if they spot

marines would not get medical care at sea.
Belgium, however, decided in early May to offer an
onboard detachment of at
least eight troops for
euroll5,000 ($162,000) a
week per unit to its commercial vessels, but so far
there has been only one
taker, according to Defense
Ministry spokesman Kurt
Verwilligen.
The French government
signed a deal with a tuna
fishermen's union in June
allowing for military protection of tuna boats in the
Indian Ocean during the
fishing season. according to
Lt. Col. Phillippe de
Cussac,
a
military
spokesman. No attacks have
been reported so far.
Global pirate attacks
more than doubled in the
first half of 2009 to 240,
from 114 in the same period
last year, according to the
International
Maritime
Bureau. A surge of raids in
the Gulf of Aden and off the
east coast of Somalia
accounted for many attacks.
though waters off Nigeria
are a serious trouble spot.
The Somali attacks are in
a lull because seas are
rough, but are expected to
increase around the end of
this month when the weather should improve.
The measure to put military guards on U.S.-flagged
ships passed in the House
by a vote of 389-22.
In testimony in May,
Arthur J. Volkle Jr., vice
president of American
Cargo Transport, Inc., said
private guards were already
on his group's ships in the
Gulf of Aden and the
Persian Gulf. He said the
best way to protect U.S.-

flagged ships was by
deploying mjlitary teams to
avoid "regulatory shortfalls,
liability concerns, and international reluctance to permit armed merchant vessels
into their ports."
Phillips, the Maersk
Alabama captain, has testified that senior crew members should have access to
weapons,
though
he
ackno~·ledged that even this
limited approach opens
"thorny" issues. Maritime
experts say some seafarers
travel with small arms. but
don't declare them.
The separate bill granting
immunity has yet to go to a
House vote. It would direct
Washington to negotiate
deals through the U.N. maritime agency to provide
similar exemptions from
liability in other countries,
as well as to ensure atmed
U.S. crews can enter foreign
ports.
But implementing the
measure could be difficult
because the U.N. agency
discourages
onboard
weapons.

Thursday at age 94.
Known for his lightningfast riffs. Paul performed
\Vith some of early pop's

a slew of hits. many with
wife Mary Ford. But it was
his inventive streak that
made him
universally
revered by guitar gods as
their original ancestor and
earned his induction into the
Rock and Roll Hall of Fame
as one of the most important
forces in popular music.
Paul, who died in White
Plains, N.Y.. of complications from pneumonia , was a
tireless tinkerer. whose quest
for a particular sound led him
to create the first solid-body
electric guitar, a departure
from the hollow-body guitars
of the time. His invention
paved the way for modern
rock 'n ' roll and became the
standard instmment for legends like Pete Townshend
and Jimmy Page.
He also developed technology that would become
hallmarks of rock and pop
recordings. from multitrack
recording that allowed for
layers and layers of ··overdubs" to guitar reverb and
other sound effects.
''He was tmly the comer-

Paul remained an active
performer until his last

first rock album just four
years ago, and up until
recently played every week
at a New York jazz club.
The news of his death
prompted an outpouring of
tributes from the music
world.
"Les lived a very long life
and he got to a lot of his
goals. so I'm happy for him
in that respect. ... At least he
realized that he was a legend
in his own time while he was
alive," said Richie Sambora,
Bon Jovi 's guitarist and a
friend of Paul's, on Thursday.
''He was revolutionary in the
music business."
Said Kiss' Paul Stanley:
"The name Les Paul is ic.

the cornerstone of a lot of

West Virginia looks to keep pace despite QB change

DAYS
tallworth
suspended
without pay
for season

MORGANTOWN (AP)
- West Virginia fell short of
expectations in coach Bill
Stewart's first full season
and the challenge will be
e\'en greater in the post-Pat
White era.
Stewart is counting on
running back Noel Devine
and lo~1gtime backup quarterback Jarrett BrO\\ n to
help soften White's departure to the NFL and keep the
~l ountaineers in the chase
for
a
third
Bowl
Championship Series berth
in live seasons.
West Virginia could easily
become mediocre after the
graduation of White. the
most prolific rushing quarterback in NCAA history
who went 34-8 as a starter.
including 4-0 in bowls. But
recent history shows the
Mountaineers have found a
way to replace one marquee
playmaker with another.
After running back Amos
Zereoue and then record-setting passer Marc Bulger left
for the NFL in the late
1990s. Avon Cobourne
rewrote many of Zereoue 's
rushing
records.
Quarterback
Rasheed
Marshall was the Bic East
offensi\e player of the year
in 2004. Steve Slaton

eclipsed
many
of
Cohourne's marks and
became an aii-Amencan in
2006.
White surpassed them all.
" How do we replace
Patrick White?" Stewart
said. "Sooner or later, graduation was going to get us.
Graduation did what our
opponents couldn't do stop Patrick White. It's
inevitable, but it's a good
thing. too. because it keeps
new blood in the program
and brings about new adventures."
It promises to be an adventure with Devine, a junior
looking to add to last year's
rushing total of I ,289 yards,
the eighth best in school history. He's the league's top
back
with
returning
Connecticut's
Donald
Brown and Pittsburgh's
LcSean McCoy off to the
NFL.
But Dc,·inc will have to
tiptoe his way around an
offensive line that returns
only three players with starting experience.
"All I can do is help my
team out and everything will
fall into place,'' Devine said.
Brov. n has appeared in 24
games, including two starts.
He':-; both struggled at times

and shown
br illiance,
completing
65 percent
of
his
ca r eer
passes with
five touchdowns and four
interceptions. He's avera~cd
5.7 yards per rushmg
attempt and scored seven
times on the cround, including a 51-yard~TD.
"This is Jarrett Brown's
football team," Stewart said.
" I don't have a concern other
than the fact I'd love to keep
him healthv."
T hat philosophy didn't
work with White. The
Mountaineers were a Top I 0
team in the 2008 preseason
but started 1-2 and White
spent much of the season
injured. Cincinnati earned
its first Big East title and
West Virginia ended up 9-4
and in a three-way tie for
second place. a disappointment in a year of national
championship hopes.
Stewart has tweaked the
spread offense and plans to
occasionally use big back!;
and tight ends in the I formation. especially in short
yardage situations. He wants
to throw the ball more on
first down to take the focus

off Devine.
•· Arc we going to turn into
the B YU of the East?
Absolutely not," Stewart
said.
The coach also doesn't
want Brown feeling the need
to hurry h1s throws or complete every pass.
"I told him, it's OK to
punt,'' Stewart said. " J don't
want him turning the ball
over. If we don't do that,
we'll have a chance.''
Pulling poinb on the
scoreboard m Wh1te 's wake
isn't the main concern for
Stewart. Ball control is.
Opponents held the ball
nearly two minutes longer
each game last year. The
Mountaineers
converted
only 42 percent of the time
on third down and 31 percent on fourth . Stewart is
counting on sophomore tight
end Tyler Urban and fullhack Ryan Clarke to contribute in that regard.
''I want to make sure those
third downs we missed last
year, those fom1h dov. ns we
missed, we've got to get
them.'' Stewart said.
West Virginia's defense
returns nine players with
previous starts. including
linebacker Reed Williams.

1"iger Woods chips to the 18th green during the first round
of the 91 st PGA Championship at the Hazeltine National
Golf Club in Chaska, Minn., on Thursday.

Tiger goes without a
blemish in leading PGA
CHASKA, Minn. (AP) Woods was twirling
his club, not tossing them at
.his bag in disgust. Putts that
,grazed the edge of the hole
and caused him so much
angst were for birdie, not par
or worse.
Woods had no complaints
Thursday in the first round
~f the PGA Championship.
The only concerns might
come from the guys chasing

~ Tiger

him.
· Woods played bogey-free
at Hazeltine National for a Sunder 67. building a oneshot lead over defending
champion
Padraig
Hanington for an ideal start
ns he tries to capture a major
rh his last chance this year.
Not since Camoustie two
years ago has Woods managed to break 70 in the openjng round of a major. Not
since St. Andrews four years
ago has he had the lead to
himself after the first round.
More telling was a score:card without a blemish.
· It was the only the third
time that Woods has opened
a major with a bogey-free
round - the other two were
at the U.S. Open and British
Open in 2000, which he won
by a combined 23 shots.
· "It was a very positive
start." Woods said. "When
.I'm playing well, I usually
don't make that many mist*es."
, Harrington. who lost a
three-shot lead to Woods in
the final round at Firestone
on Sunday, stayed with him
through the steamy, breezy
morning until a bunker shot
on the par-5 seventh was too
strong and he had to settle
for par.
The intensity from the
final round was missing.
Both
are
experienced
enough to know that
Thursday at a major is all
about position, and they
chatted frequently during
their five hours at Hazeltine.
Even so, Hanington took
notice.
"There's a factor that Tiger
JS S-under par and looks like
he's playing well, and looks
like he could move away,''
Harrington said. "And key
will be, obviously is he's
moving away, to make sure
I'm moving with him. It was
'tough on Sunday with me
.getting a three-shot statt. I
tlon 't want to give him a
three-shot strut."
' Phil Mickelson struggled
off the tee and with his short
putts in his round of 74.
• In the traditional group of
major champions. this year,
Lucas Glover was the only
pne to break par with a 7 J .
Masters champion Angel
Cabrera had a 76, while
:J3~itish Open winner Stewart
Cink had two double bogeys
in his round of 73.
Woods and Hanington, the
winners of the last three
•RGAs, played in the mom' ing when the greens were
relatively smooth and the
wind had only just begun to
swirl through these tree'lined fairways.
•· Equally impressive was a

pair of other past PGA
champions - Vijay Singh
and David Toms - who
were at 69 while playing in
the afternoon, and should get
the best conditions in the
second round. Singh hit his
best shot around the trees
and into the sun, not seeing
that it spun back an inch or
two from the hole at No. 16.
Others who had a 69 from
the morning batch were
Robert Allenby and Alvaro
Quiros, the big-hitter from
Spain who hit driver off the
deck on the 606-yard 11th
hole - into a breeze - that
bounded onto the green
while Woods, Harrington
and Rich Beem were
putting.
Woods looked back at
Quiros and smiled, giving
him a thumbs-up.
''That's just stupid long.''
Woods said. "It's just
absolutely phenomenal. I
used to be able to move the
ball - not anymore. I just
plod my way around, shoot
67 ."
This 'Nasn 't a memorable
round, rather an efficient
one.
Woods missed onI y two
fairways - he hit driver on
six holes and three
greens. He only twice came
close to making bogey, on
the 18th and first hole~. and
saved par with 6-foot putts.
He looked nothing like the
guy who was slamming
clubs and looking for a lost
ball at Turnberry last month
in the British Open, when he
missed the cut in a major for
only the second time in his
career. Woods had a chance
to expand his lead with
birdie putts of 12 and 15 feet
on the last two holes that
burned the lip.
Woods atop the leaderboard can be daunting going
into Sunday, not so much
after one round.
His record with at least a
share of the lead through 18
holes is on Iy 13-11 on the
PGA Tour. including 4-2 in
the majors. Even so. he has
won the last four majors
from this positions.
That was only a bonus.
"Something I've always
believe in is just keep yourself around," Woods said.
"You don't have to be eight
ahead after the first round.
Just got to keep plodding
along. Major championship
are set up so they're difficult. They beat you into
making mistakes. And the
whole idea is not to make
many mistakes."
A few tees were moved
forward to account for the
wind. Even so, Hazeltine
played 7,660 yards from the
tee to the hole, and Woods
made some of his best
birdies with long clubs. He
opened his scoring with a 3iron to 20 feet at No. 12, and
picked up three birdies on
the par 5s, including a 3wood to a back bunker of the
651-yard 15th. with a breeze
at his back.
He took the outright lead
on the par-5 seventh with a
349-yard tee shot, followed
by a 6-iron to 30 feet.

soars. Network in order to increase your opportunities.
Your personal relationships star this year. If you are single, many people want to be your sweetie. Oloose the
right person, keeping in mind what type of bond you
desire. If you are attached, the two o( you make an
excellent team. You feel a lot of good will from a partner. Count on GEI\r1It\I for friendship.

4-Positive; 3-Avemge; 2-So-so; 1-Difficrtlt
ARIES (Nfarch 21-Aprill9)
**** Speak your mind. Let others know where
you stand. Your willingness to broker a cause or follow
through on a commitment defines the next few days.
You feel more together than you have in a long time. Be
sensitive to your options. Tonight: Join your pals at
some local setting.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20)
***Your expenses could be out of kilter. Self-disdpline might not happen easilr Look to a change in
events and direction. A family member wants a lot
from you, but at the same time you have many external
responsibilities. Tonight: Stay within your means.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20)
You might be pleased as punch &lt;~bout
what is happening. Ren1ain in touch \vith your needs.
Oear your desk. Returned calls could bring unusually
good or positive news. Optimism reigns. Don't bet on a
certain income. lbnight \rVhatever you decide i'&gt; per·
feet.
CANCER Qune 21-July 22)
*** If you choose to be an observer more than a
participant, you could h&lt;we a difficult time deciding
which way to go. Dealing with a money matter that
could be too good to be true ic; obviously very important. Use good sense when investing and making decisions. Tonight Listen to your sixth sense.
LEO Quly 23-Aug. 22)
*****Zero in on what you want. Open up to
potential. What others seem inclined to encourage
could be out oi sync with reality. Investigate whdt is
happening between you and someone else. Tonight Be
where there are crowds.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
**** An ability to make d difference marks your

*****

actions. Others assume that you know what you are

of action. Tonight: Oear out of work ASAP, or ask asso- •
dates to join you for an after-work drink.
LffiRA (Sept. 23-0ct. 22)
***** A leap of faith could have direct ramifications. Do needed research so you feel as confident as
possible. You h&lt;1ve the ability to empathize and understand others. Your creativity is endless, which allows
you greater insight and knowledge. Remain goal-oriented. Tonight: Read between the lines.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
Your demeanor and wiJiingness count. A
partner could play a pivotal role. Look at your
demands, both professionally and personally, before
taking on yet another re&gt;ponsibility. lbnight Go ""ith
another person's wishes.
SAGmARIUs (r\ov. 22-Dec. 21)
***** Others take action and run with the ball
You find yourself pulled between many different situations. Detach if you feel overwhelmed by everything
you hear. Get on top of a situation and look to positive
changes. How you see a personal matter could change
radically. Tonight Just don't be alone.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
Emphasize clearing out as much work as possible. Though you are optimistic about a money matter,
it is clear that the final outcome is not in your hands. A
partner has different concerns and ideas for security.
1bnight: A discussion is inevitable.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
*****Allow more creativity to come forward.
Your way of handling a problem could be very different from many other people. Realize someone might be '
questioning your actions. A child or ]0\·ed one tests his
or her boundaries. The problem lies in that you scarcely
see it. Tonight Cruise on out the door.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)
****On some level, you feel as if you are in a
pressure cooker. Make this an earlr day or call in You
could be far happier with the end results. Your instincts
could be telling you a lot, but still stay on track \\rith a
project. Listen to what is being shared. Tonight Put
your feet up and rela\. Think "weekend."

Biffle's trying for Chase spot despite very tough season
By Monte Dutton
NASCAR This Week

This hasn't been the season Greg
Biffle expected, though Biffle certainly has time to pick up the pieces.
The 39-year-old Biffle didn't win during the 2008 regular season but, after
making the Chase, proceeded to win its
first two races. He wound up third in
the Sprint Cup standings. On Monday,
he finished fifth at the Heluva Good!
Sour Cream Dips at The Glen.
For now, Biffle's first priority is
making the Chase, but that doesn't
mean he's going to back off.
"We're certainly not racing conservatively,'' he said. "We're racing to
win, but we're not going to do anything stupid.
"We know we have to stay in (the top

12 in order to qualify for the Chase).
It's tight ... and we're doing all we can
do."
Roush Fenway Racing put Biffle in
what was then still the Winston Cup
Series back in 2003. He finished second in the Chase standings two years
later. A year ago, three Roush Fenway
drivers - Biffle, Carl Edwards and
Matt Kenseth - made the Chase.
They could do it again, but the positions of Biffle and Kenseth are hardly
secure as the regular season enters its
final four races.
"We're just going to have to be better," said Biffle. "We know that. We're
nervous about getting in (the Chase),
and anything can happen.... There are
some races we're concerned about
leading up to the cutoff (end of the
regular season), and we know we're
on the bubble, so it's important to

have good finishes right now."
Biffle, from Vancouver. Wash., is
one of only two drivers to have won
championships in both the Nationwide and Campmg World Truck series. (Johnny Benson is the other.)
Biffle was also rookie of the year in
both series. He came up through
NASCAR's developmental system,
winning track championships early
in his career at Tri-City Raceway in
West Richland, Wash., and Portland
(Ore.) Speedway.
"Really, we're working as hard as
we can every week to bring the best
race cars we can to the track," said
Biffle. "It's important that we have
the best possible equipment right now.
"We're racing as hard as we can.
We're not taking big risks, but, at
the same time, we're racing for the
win."

Dear NASCAR This Week,
I have a question I hope you can answer. What purpose do the military
flyovers before the start of each race
serve? Also who pays for the flyovers? It seems like it would cost a
lot for each race. Add up the cost for
36 races and the nationwide races. I
bet it would be a large sum of IT'Oney.
If the USA government is payin~ for
these. how can they afford tt wtth the
huge budget deficit trey ha\e? ...
Randy Campbell
Odessa. Texas
Eac/l branch of the milttary has a
recruiting budge~ and the military
fi}'OVers, not to mention sponsorships,
are justified, m the view of the armed
forces, on the basis of those rectu1tin.
needs. 1\s far as the purpose for racE
fans s concerned. some would cite
patriotism. Flyovers are also conducted at other major sporting events. not
just NASCAR races.

Dear NASCAR This Week,
Our comment about Jimm1e Johnson
- if it wasn't for Jeff Gordon teach·
ing you the ropes on racing you
wouldn't be where you are now. Viewers are pretty sick of your hogging all
the glory. We generally turn offour
T.V. when you start showing off.

P.S. · You probably won't print thts.
Didn't think so, huh? We haven t
noticed Johnson "hoggmg a'l the glory." We've always found h1rn grac ous
and appreciative of those who
helped him aror:g the way. Humility
can l:&gt;e difficult to convey, 1\e guess,
for a driver IVhO has \\On three
consecutive championships.
