Spreading butter up or down doesn't matter one bit!" Indeed, the whole reason to go to war on Who is to get rid of those "bibulous butter-side downers"' It doesn't take much imagination to read through the lines of the play and recognize the moral point on display: war fought over insignificant differences between people is just plain stupid! Indeed, most of our conflicts with one another are over small, insignificant thin!ls. When I provide premarital counseling to couples, we talk about how each of them puts toothpaste <in a toothbrush. Are you one who flattens the tube from the bottom, or do you squeeze from the middle? Those who flatten from the bottom view middlesqueezers as · illogical. (Don't you know you can't get the toothpaste from the bottom of the tube if you've squeezed out the middle?) Those who squeeze from the middle think bottomflatteners are obsessivecompulsive over the tiniest details. (Don't you have more important things to think about?) Toothpaste. Butter. Oh, easily we can get our tempers tantrummed! So where do we draw the line between the silly find the serious? When does something become soQ~ething worth fighting for? We want the line to be easily drawn,. but the dilemma is that there IS no line to easily differentiate between the two. Even Jesus' life offers us a range of responses. The most famous "fight scene" in ·the gospels is when Jesus cleared the Temple in Jerusalem of the moneychangers and sacrificial animal sellers. He overturned tables, dumped and broke . cages holding the birds, goats, lambs, etc. He screamed, "My house will be called a house of prayer, but you are making it. a den of robbers!" (Matt 21: 12-13) However, Jesus refused to fight when the soldiers came to arrest him in the middle of the night. Peter swung at one of the men, cutting off the man',s ear.

Sundlly worship is at 11 a.m. Pastor Kerry can be reached at racineumc@sudtknlink.neL) "Put your sword back in its .place," Jesus said, "for all who draw the sword will die by the sword." (Matt 26:52) Jesus offered no resistance all the way to the cross. He accepted the mocking, the spitting, the beating, and the climactic agony of crucifixion. So why did Jesus react strongly against the money changers but no one else? Perhaps because he knew there was no redeeming value to what was going on in the temple. Worship had become a matter of economic exchange where the Temple grew rich by exploiting the people. Jesus' violence was a necessary correction to. a system gone terribly wrong.

And if we have managed to have some sort of "vacation," we'll soon be longing for "the good ol' summer timeu to return. I really don't mind the booking of a place to stay in areas that all seem to be havin!l conventions dur· ing the lime we were planning to go; the. packing of every food item, utensil and shred of clothing that we just might need (but generally don't); the ~reemptive car maintenance m whtch I do more damage than good; the cramming of children into an overburdened vehicle that literally groans when I finally manage to mash the back hatch closed; the long, long miles of driving while running out of "fun" travel games after only an hour of driving; and the incessant cries of "Are we there yet?" and "Oops! I hope that doesn't stain the seat!" Other than those things, vacations are great (so I've heard). Of course, it's always good to get home and get back to work (so you can finally rest). A few years ago, our family had managed to take a few days off and go away to see some new things. The trip was very, very pleasant actually. There were all sorts of r Pastor Thorn Mollohan things to do and enoug~ room in our schedule for us to not feel hurried and stressed. It could have easily turned into a tragedy however, We had all gone to the facUlty's indoor pool (which has always been a huge favorite with our children). We found it crowded but managed to fmd a nook or two in which we could splash around a bit. It just so happened that while my wife was busy in another part of the pool with our littlest one, another of our children (who.was about 4 at the time), was busy playing with me in the shallow en!l of the pool while the plac~ . was ftlled with the laughter alid splashing of dozens of people together in that large rootri. After , ~e had been there awhile, I thought that we might take a rest and go and check on our other family members. When my son and I climbed out of the pool, I looked to see where my wife was so we could join her.As soon as my gaze was bent elsewhere, my son apparently saw her fij'St and made a dash r i r r r to join her. I suddenly heard the slapping of little wet feet on the ground and when I looked back down, I saw that my son had zoomed off across the room along the edge of the pool towards his mother who as carrying our youngest while she walked through the water. I started after liim. but just as I did so, he got to the deeper end and, without an}' hesitation at all, jumped .in. I was rurming after him at this point and as I drew near to him; I could see him bobbin!! up and down in the water, his eyes above its surface but not quite able to get his nose up even .though he was lryinl! with all liis · might. That unoge is ·still burned into my mind. No one else ..seemed to nodce him,. but th~ be was ... Ie&dy to drown if I hadn't been facing towards him to pull him out of the water. His mother had aliiO seen his plunge and was moving as quickly as she ' could towards him. · I jumped into the water too - much to the chagrin of those nearby who got " splashed, but I didn't care because my little son desperately needed me. I scooped him Up out of the water and must have squeezed any water in his lungs out of him when I hugged him. After my wife and I made sure that he was all right and gave him the obligatory scolding (not that he really needed it anymore), we all climbed out together, r r r r r r having decided that we had all had as much fun in the water as we needed that day. Maybe, in its own small way, the experience refreshed for me the deep urgency from which our heavenly Father regards men and women, boys and girls in our homes, our churches; and our communities. The Gospels, in telling the story of Jesus' earthly ministry, His teachings, and ultimately His cru· cifixion and resurrection, paint the vivid picture of a Father who is urgently seek· in$ to save those. who are spiritually perishing. · This is the hope that we really find in the Holy Scriptures. God is on the move, seeking to save each one who is willing to be saved. ~ because a lot of different folks . had even then, just as they do now, a lot of different ideas about what God's anointed messenger would be like and what He would do, . He explained it very succinctly and very simply, "... The Son of Man has come to seek and to save that which was lost" (Luke 19:10 NAS) . . And just who is lost anyway? Sadly, we all are until we come to saving faith: in Christ Jesus. "All of us like sheep have gone astray, each of us has turned to his own way; but the LORD has caused the ini9uity 9f us all to fall on Him' (Isaiah 53:6 r r r i r NAS). "All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God :.. For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift . of God is eternal life in Cluist Jesus our Lord" (Romans 3:23, 6:23 NAS). Until we've each received this "free gift of God," we are each literally drowning in our sin, perhaps bobbing u,P and down as we try to nse above it, but in the end, . it takes the strong arm of God Himself to do the saving. And how He longs to do)ust that I . ' And He (Jesus) told them this parable, saying, 'What tnall among you, ifhe has a hundred sheep and hast lost one of them, does not leave the ninety-nine in the open pasture, and go after the one which is lost, until he finds it? And when he . has found it, he lays it on his shoulders, ·rejoicing. And when he comes home, he calls to~ether his friends and his netghbors, saying to them, 'Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep which was lost!' I tell you that in tl!e same way, there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who need no repentance"' (Luke 15:3"7 NAS). Just J like. Jesus tried to break through the hard-heartedness of folks who erroneously thought they had no need for repentance, so He reaches out to us today, r r r r r reminding us that we mijlht be thinking that we're gomg to be fme as we try to ,stand on our spiritual tiptoes, but are, in fact, in over our heads. 'There is none righteous, not even . one" (Romans 3: 10 NAS). If the reality of your need for Jesus' love and forgiveness hi).S hit home, and you find that you're not only ready to give up .trying to live your life on your,own, but are also aching for the saving grace of God to enter. Into your heart, · then . carefully consider Ood's promise In Romans 10:9 and 10, "... If you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord. and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the~ )'QU ahall be saved; for. with· !he heart man · believes, ~suiting . in righteousness, and ' with the mouth he confesses, reslllting in salvation. "And if you have already been lifted up from the murky Wl\ters of your s!n, then don't be content wtth being saved alone, but look around the "pool" of your life and see who else is in need of the Father's gift of salvation.

(Shameless plug: Tickets are $9 and show times are Sarurday at 7 p.m., and Sunday at 2 p.m. and 7 p.m.). I play a supporting character, General Gengus Khan Schmitz, who runs a military school for young Who children. General Schmitz is an interesting character. He's full of military pomp and bluster. He likes· to put on a grand marching show. But he doesn't really know the darker side of war.. For him, war is an opportunity for glory until he encounters young Jojo. Jojo is a young recruit to the school, just before the Butter War breaks out. Jojo objects to the rationale for war: "Sir, This war makes Fr~a~August31,2007 Father in l1 em•en."

Just one Think and you'd quit. Spreading butter up or down doesn't matter one bit!" Indeed, the whole reason to go to war on Who is to get rid of those "bibulous butter-side downers"' It doesn't take much imagination to read through the lines of the play and recognize the moral point on display: war fought over insignificant differences between people is just plain stupid! Indeed, most of our conflicts with one another are over small, insignificant thin!ls. When I provide premarital counseling to couples, we talk about how each of them puts toothpaste <in a toothbrush. Are you one who flattens the tube from the bottom, or do you squeeze from the middle? Those who flatten from the bottom view middlesqueezers as · illogical. (Don't you know you can't get the toothpaste from the bottom of the tube if you've squeezed out the middle?) Those who squeeze from the middle think bottomflatteners are obsessivecompulsive over the tiniest details. (Don't you have more important things to think about?) Toothpaste. Butter. Oh, easily we can get our tempers tantrummed! So where do we draw the line between the silly find the serious? When does something become soQ~ething worth fighting for? We want the line to be easily drawn,. but the dilemma is that there IS no line to easily differentiate between the two. Even Jesus' life offers us a range of responses. The most famous "fight scene" in ·the gospels is when Jesus cleared the Temple in Jerusalem of the moneychangers and sacrificial animal sellers. He overturned tables, dumped and broke . cages holding the birds, goats, lambs, etc. He screamed, "My house will be called a house of prayer, but you are making it. a den of robbers!" (Matt 21: 12-13) However, Jesus refused to fight when the soldiers came to arrest him in the middle of the night. Peter swung at one of the men, cutting off the man',s ear. Cburdl ollfSIIS Chritt Apo~~totk VanZandt and Ward Rd ., Putor: James Miller, Sunday School • 10:30 a.m., EvelliDg - 7:30 p.m. - humanity's choice for sin. Jesus didn't resist arrest and the cross because he knew it was the path to resurrection. Not just his res~tion but the opportunity for resur• recti on for all of us! Fighting over whether one butters bread up or down is silly. Dr. Seuss helps us recognize that we must be very careful choosin$ what causes are worth fightmg fob Jesus Christ does more. He helps us recognize that sonie things are fought for in very surprising ways. I pray that you will be surprised by Jesus and take the right approach to handling all conflict that comes your way.

Sundlly worship is at 11 a.m. Pastor Kerry can be reached at racineumc@sudtknlink.neL) "Put your sword back in its .place," Jesus said, "for all who draw the sword will die by the sword." (Matt 26:52) Jesus offered no resistance all the way to the cross. He accepted the mocking, the spitting, the beating, and the climactic agony of crucifixion. So why did Jesus react strongly against the money changers but no one else? Perhaps because he knew there was no redeeming value to what was going on in the temple. Worship had become a matter of economic exchange where the Temple grew rich by exploiting the people. Jesus' violence was a necessary correction to. a system gone terribly wrong. The violence done to Jesus, however, was God's mysterious way of correcting an even more terrible wrong River Valley River Valley Apos101ic Worship Center, 873 S. 3rd /11\'e., Middle port , Rev.

I pm book stOO.y - - - - A Hunger For More With fall and all its activities revving up again with the advent of school, it won't be long before we're looking back wistfully on this past summer. And if we have managed to have some sort of "vacation," we'll soon be longing for "the good ol' summer timeu to return. I really don't mind the booking of a place to stay in areas that all seem to be havin!l conventions dur· ing the lime we were planning to go; the. packing of every food item, utensil and shred of clothing that we just might need (but generally don't); the ~reemptive car maintenance m whtch I do more damage than good; the cramming of children into an overburdened vehicle that literally groans when I finally manage to mash the back hatch closed; the long, long miles of driving while running out of "fun" travel games after only an hour of driving; and the incessant cries of "Are we there yet?" and "Oops! I hope that doesn't stain the seat!" Other than those things, vacations are great (so I've heard). Of course, it's always good to get home and get back to work (so you can finally rest). A few years ago, our family had managed to take a few days off and go away to see some new things. The trip was very, very pleasant actually. There were all sorts of r Pastor Thorn Mollohan things to do and enoug~ room in our schedule for us to not feel hurried and stressed. It could have easily turned into a tragedy however, We had all gone to the facUlty's indoor pool (which has always been a huge favorite with our children). We found it crowded but managed to fmd a nook or two in which we could splash around a bit. It just so happened that while my wife was busy in another part of the pool with our littlest one, another of our children (who.was about 4 at the time), was busy playing with me in the shallow en!l of the pool while the plac~ . was ftlled with the laughter alid splashing of dozens of people together in that large rootri. After , ~e had been there awhile, I thought that we might take a rest and go and check on our other family members. When my son and I climbed out of the pool, I looked to see where my wife was so we could join her.As soon as my gaze was bent elsewhere, my son apparently saw her fij'St and made a dash r i r r r to join her. I suddenly heard the slapping of little wet feet on the ground and when I looked back down, I saw that my son had zoomed off across the room along the edge of the pool towards his mother who as carrying our youngest while she walked through the water. I started after liim. but just as I did so, he got to the deeper end and, without an}' hesitation at all, jumped .in. I was rurming after him at this point and as I drew near to him; I could see him bobbin!! up and down in the water, his eyes above its surface but not quite able to get his nose up even .though he was lryinl! with all liis · might. That unoge is ·still burned into my mind. No one else ..seemed to nodce him,. but th~ be was ... Ie&dy to drown if I hadn't been facing towards him to pull him out of the water. His mother had aliiO seen his plunge and was moving as quickly as she ' could towards him. · I jumped into the water too - much to the chagrin of those nearby who got " splashed, but I didn't care because my little son desperately needed me. I scooped him Up out of the water and must have squeezed any water in his lungs out of him when I hugged him. After my wife and I made sure that he was all right and gave him the obligatory scolding (not that he really needed it anymore), we all climbed out together, r r r r r r having decided that we had all had as much fun in the water as we needed that day. Maybe, in its own small way, the experience refreshed for me the deep urgency from which our heavenly Father regards men and women, boys and girls in our homes, our churches; and our communities. The Gospels, in telling the story of Jesus' earthly ministry, His teachings, and ultimately His cru· cifixion and resurrection, paint the vivid picture of a Father who is urgently seek· in$ to save those. who are spiritually perishing. · This is the hope that we really find in the Holy Scriptures. God is on the move, seeking to save each one who is willing to be saved. ~ because a lot of different folks . had even then, just as they do now, a lot of different ideas about what God's anointed messenger would be like and what He would do, . He explained it very succinctly and very simply, "... The Son of Man has come to seek and to save that which was lost" (Luke 19:10 NAS) . . And just who is lost anyway? Sadly, we all are until we come to saving faith: in Christ Jesus. "All of us like sheep have gone astray, each of us has turned to his own way; but the LORD has caused the ini9uity 9f us all to fall on Him' (Isaiah 53:6 r r r i r NAS). "All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God :.. For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift . of God is eternal life in Cluist Jesus our Lord" (Romans 3:23, 6:23 NAS). Until we've each received this "free gift of God," we are each literally drowning in our sin, perhaps bobbing u,P and down as we try to nse above it, but in the end, . it takes the strong arm of God Himself to do the saving. And how He longs to do)ust that I . ' And He (Jesus) told them this parable, saying, 'What tnall among you, ifhe has a hundred sheep and hast lost one of them, does not leave the ninety-nine in the open pasture, and go after the one which is lost, until he finds it? And when he . has found it, he lays it on his shoulders, ·rejoicing. And when he comes home, he calls to~ether his friends and his netghbors, saying to them, 'Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep which was lost!' I tell you that in tl!e same way, there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who need no repentance"' (Luke 15:3"7 NAS). Just J like. Jesus tried to break through the hard-heartedness of folks who erroneously thought they had no need for repentance, so He reaches out to us today, r r r r r reminding us that we mijlht be thinking that we're gomg to be fme as we try to ,stand on our spiritual tiptoes, but are, in fact, in over our heads. 'There is none righteous, not even . one" (Romans 3: 10 NAS). If the reality of your need for Jesus' love and forgiveness hi).S hit home, and you find that you're not only ready to give up .trying to live your life on your,own, but are also aching for the saving grace of God to enter. Into your heart, · then . carefully consider Ood's promise In Romans 10:9 and 10, "... If you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord. and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the~ )'QU ahall be saved; for. with· !he heart man · believes, ~suiting . in righteousness, and ' with the mouth he confesses, reslllting in salvation. "And if you have already been lifted up from the murky Wl\ters of your s!n, then don't be content wtth being saved alone, but look around the "pool" of your life and see who else is in need of the Father's gift of salvation.

There is no need to deny that the movie contains religious aqd moral themes, said Eldridge. But for generations, Hollywood executives made successful ~~;~ain­ stream movies that contained these kinds of words and images. These movies were aimed at a broad, mainstream market; not · a narrow, political, sectarian, "Christian" niche. "I told the Fox people this movie was going to resonate with the Christian audience and that's fine with me, because I am a Christian," said Eldridge. "But I was worried that this movie would get tagged as a little 'Christian' movie, like that was some kind of Good Housekeeping seal for the Christian marketplace .... "I think it's obvious that this is what happened, and that caused some people to distance themselves from this movie. There was no need for that to happen."

LARRY CRAIG'S CARtER ••• TODAY IN HISTORY Today is Friday, Aug. 31, the 243rd day of 2007. There are 122 days left in the year. Today's Highlight in History: On Aug. 31, 1886, an earthquake rocked Charleston, S.C., killing 60 people, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. On this date: In 1881, the first U.S. tennis championships (for men) were played, in Newport, R.I. In 1.888, Mary Ann Nichols was found murdered in London's Ea~t End in what is generally regarded as the first slaying committed by "Jack the Ripper." In 1935, President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed an act prohibiting the export of U.S. arms to belligerents. In 1941, the radio program "The Great Gildersleeve" debuted on NBC. In 1954, Hurricane Carol hit the northeastern Atlantic states. Connecticut, Rhode Island and part of Massachusetts bore the brunt of the storm, which resulted in nearly 70 deaths. Thought for Today: "Real stories, in distinction from those we invent, have no author. Although history owes its existence to men, it is not 'made' by them." - Hannah Arendt, German-born author, philosopher and ·historian (1906-1975).

LARRY CRAIG'S CARtER ••• TODAY IN HISTORY Today is Friday, Aug. 31, the 243rd day of 2007. There are 122 days left in the year. Today's Highlight in History: On Aug. 31, 1886, an earthquake rocked Charleston, S.C., killing 60 people, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. On this date: In 1881, the first U.S. tennis championships (for men) were played, in Newport, R.I. In 1.888, Mary Ann Nichols was found murdered in London's Ea~t End in what is generally regarded as the first slaying committed by "Jack the Ripper." In 1935, President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed an act prohibiting the export of U.S. arms to belligerents. In 1941, the radio program "The Great Gildersleeve" debuted on NBC. In 1954, Hurricane Carol hit the northeastern Atlantic states. Connecticut, Rhode Island and part of Massachusetts bore the brunt of the storm, which resulted in nearly 70 deaths.

"We JUSt couldn't keep Katie out of the front row, because when she got in the front row - she just took over. 'They were able to get the ball to her and she just put kept putting it away.

Now against Shawn Chacon on Edwin ,Encarnacion's RBI single - his s_econd hit of the game. If not for Durul's mistake, it would have been his third hit. The Reds had two runs erased when, with the bases loaded and two outs in the fourth, Griffey, who was on third, and Dunn, who was on second, came home standing U(Y on Encarnacion's line drive to left field. But the Pirates successfully appealed that Dunn failed to touch third, and he was called out on what became a force play. The ruling led to some brief confusion - the scoreboard changed from 2-2 to 2I , and finally, back to a 2-0 Pirates lead - and prompted a long discussion between third base umpire Chris Guccione, crew chief Wally Bell and Reds iqterim manager Pete Mackanin. The only available TV replay was inconclusive. Baseball rule 7.12 states that when a runner misses a base: "If, upon appeal, the preceding runner is the third out, no runners following him shall score. If the third out is the result of a force play, neither preceding nor following runners shall score." The Reds lost two more runs by the matter of a few feet. Griffey's double that started the fourth hit high off · the right-field wall, missing a ~ homer by inches.

The baserunning misplay was Dunn's second mistake of the game. LaRoche advanced from first to third on Dunn's two-base error for overrunning the ball in left field, but LaRoche was stranded there. Notes: Griffey's double no, it wasn't erased - was the 1,099th extra-base hit of his career, tying him with Eddie Murray for 15th place. ...

For the Sharpie 500, AT&T wasn't emblazoned on Burton's No. 31, aresult of the latest round of the legal battle between NASCAR, which con· tends AT&T can't maintain the right of Burton's former sponsor, Cingular, and AT&T, which holds that it can do so as Cingular's descendant.

He never actually competed full.time, or in even one race in his new role, for that matter. Smith began the season as Mark Martin's designated driver, i.e., he competed in Martin's place when Martin took races off. Martin proclaimed him ready to win at the Cup level, though he never actually fin· ished better than 241h. Within days of the "full-time ride" announcement, Ginn abruptly, and with no warning, sold out to Dale Earnhardt Inc. The No. 14 (Marlin) quickly had its owner points transferred to the No. 15, giving DEI rookie Paul Menard ready access to starting fields. The car Smith was supposed to·drive ceased to exist.

Although returning _lettermen that had -good games were Ryan Chapman, Teddy Brown, Matt Lehew, and Sigmon. junior Zach Michael Manuel had a great stan, but it came to a sudden end. Manuel, who suffered two broken bones in his lower leg, and Tyler Circle (shoulder injury) joined Mike Brown and Wes Riffle on the inured list. · Depth and experience was a pre-season concern. Now against Shawn Chacon on Edwin ,Encarnacion's RBI single - his s_econd hit of the game. If not for Durul's mistake, it would have been his third hit. The Reds had two runs erased when, with the bases loaded and two outs in the fourth, Griffey, who was on third, and Dunn, who was on second, came home standing U(Y on Encarnacion's line drive to left field. But the Pirates successfully appealed that Dunn failed to touch third, and he was called out on what became a force play. The ruling led to some brief confusion - the scoreboard changed from 2-2 to 2I , and finally, back to a 2-0 Pirates lead - and prompted a long discussion between third base umpire Chris Guccione, crew chief Wally Bell and Reds iqterim manager Pete Mackanin. The only available TV replay was inconclusive. Baseball rule 7.12 states that when a runner misses a base: "If, upon appeal, the preceding runner is the third out, no runners following him shall score. If the third out is the result of a force play, neither preceding nor following runners shall score." The Reds lost two more runs by the matter of a few feet. Griffey's double that started the fourth hit high off · the right-field wall, missing a ~ homer by inches. Valentin's one-out double to the deepest part of PNC Park in the eighth hit off the fence in leftcenter, but he came around to score on Encarnacion's sin. gle. Pittsburgh opened a 2-0 lead on Adam LaRoche's RBI .single in the fJISt and Freddy Sanchez's run-scor- . ing double in the fifth, his second double of the game. The baserunning misplay was Dunn's second mistake of the game. LaRoche advanced from first to third on Dunn's two-base error for overrunning the ball in left field, but LaRoche was stranded there. Notes: Griffey's double no, it wasn't erased - was the 1,099th extra-base hit of his career, tying him with Eddie Murray for 15th place. ... Phillips had two smgle$ and a double during his S'eYL enth consecutive multihit game, the most by a Reds player since Chris Stynes had eight in 2000. Phillips is 16for-30 during the streak. · . ..

For the Sharpie 500, AT&T wasn't emblazoned on Burton's No. 31, aresult of the latest round of the legal battle between NASCAR, which con· tends AT&T can't maintain the right of Burton's former sponsor, Cingular, and AT&T, which holds that it can do so as Cingular's descendant. If there is a characteristic of Burton that will stand him -in good stead as he seeks his first championship, it's the fact that he's virtually unflap· . pable.

It moved to California Speedway in 2004, and Darlington lost one of Its two annual spots orl·the schedule a year later. Ironically, it wa s a Californ· ian, Johnny Mantz, who won the first Southern 500. Mantz, from Long Beach, competed only 12 times in stock-car racing's premier level, and his only victory was a historic one. Mantz died at age 54 On Oct. 25, 1972.

Rick Crawford - 485 Smith's roller-coaster ride will make heads spin By Monte Dutton NASCAR This Week BRISTOL, Tenn . - Things have gone achingly sour for Re· gan Smith, who, not so long ago, had been installed in a full-time ride as Sterling Marlin's re· placement at Ginn Racing. He never actually competed full.time, or in even one race in his new role, for that matter. Smith began the season as Mark Martin's designated driver, i.e., he competed in Martin's place when Martin took races off. Martin proclaimed him ready to win at the Cup level, though he never actually fin· ished better than 241h. Within days of the "full-time ride" announcement, Ginn abruptly, and with no warning, sold out to Dale Earnhardt Inc. The No. 14 (Marlin) quickly had its owner points transferred to the No. 15, giving DEI rookie Paul Menard ready access to starting fields. The car Smith was supposed to·drive ceased to exist. Ginn's development driv· er, Aric Almirola, suddenly be· came Martin's replacement dri ver and was, in fact , in the No. 01 Chevrolet here. · "That took everyone, me in· eluded, by surprise," said Smith. "I 've gotten some good experi· ence, and I've earned respect, but that doesn't stand for much until I can land on my feet . "I'd get down, but that certainly wouldn't do any good. I hope I'll have something to an· nounce soon." • Dizzying excitement RiCky Rudd, who will make career start No. 900 this week in California, said racing at Bris· tol makes him sick. Literally. "It almost feel s like motion sickness ," he said. "It never hits me while we're racing, but as soon as we stop and get out of the ca r, you start to feel lighthe.aded and get kind of sick to your stomach .

Your partnsr opens lhres clubs. What would you respond? Once you have deolded, look at tha North and SOuth hands. Then decide how you would play In thrsa no-trump by SOuth after West leads lha spade queen, and In liVe clubs by North after Eut BHBcks with the d~mond lac!<. South ought to lump to l lvo clubs becauee In three no-trump he mlgh1, ~ partner's .suit were weaker, score only one club trlctc. II North has six ~lcl<s wllh clubs as trumps, South Has five mora to make tho 11 required for game In clubs. A slam Is posslt>e, but unllksly, and impossible to bid with any conlldence. In liVe clubs, you win the flrsllrlcil wllh lha diamond king and play a trump to the ace, guardlni against bsd breaks. When East discards, you lead, say, a spade to the klng and lal<a a marked club flnssse, conceding one heart and one club. Three no-trump Is a more testing declar.· er,play exercise. You have sswn top lrlcl<s: two spades, one heart, two dOl· monds and two clubs. After winning the first tricl<, lhs correcl play is a club to North's nine, just In case West ·has all four mlssi~ clubs. Whan the nine holds, you retiJrn to hand, take a second club finesse, and win 12 tricks: two spades, one heart, two dlootonds and seven d ubs. In the year ahead, bonds could become much tighter In a relattonstlip that Ia lmpor1ant to you.

Your partnsr opens lhres clubs. What would you respond? Once you have deolded, look at tha North and SOuth hands. Then decide how you would play In thrsa no-trump by SOuth after West leads lha spade queen, and In liVe clubs by North after Eut BHBcks with the d~mond lac!<. South ought to lump to l lvo clubs becauee In three no-trump he mlgh1, ~ partner's .suit were weaker, score only one club trlctc. II North has six ~lcl<s wllh clubs as trumps, South Has five mora to make tho 11 required for game In clubs. A slam Is posslt>e, but unllksly, and impossible to bid with any conlldence. In liVe clubs, you win the flrsllrlcil wllh lha diamond king and play a trump to the ace, guardlni against bsd breaks. When East discards, you lead, say, a spade to the klng and lal<a a marked club flnssse, conceding one heart and one club. Three no-trump Is a more testing declar.· er,play exercise. You have sswn top lrlcl<s: two spades, one heart, two dOl· monds and two clubs. After winning the first tricl<, lhs correcl play is a club to North's nine, just In case West ·has all four mlssi~ clubs. Whan the nine holds, you retiJrn to hand, take a second club finesse, and win 12 tricks: two spades, one heart, two dlootonds and seven d ubs. In the year ahead, bonds could become much tighter In a relattonstlip that Ia lmpor1ant to you. This development could brihg about lome very pleasant occurrences and give you far greater happ._ ness than you thOught poa&lble. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) - All you have to do ts eer your mind to It and you will be able to deal with 6IIY and all dlfficun situations that could arlee. Your posItive and tenacious attitUde will achieve victory for you. LIBRA (Sept. 23-0ct. 23) - You cen expect a shift in conditions. but lfll be a good one. Others will now be willing to go out of their way for you In 'the very same area where they prevlouatv had refused to deal. SCORP10 (Oct. 24·Nov. 22) - Keep any and all neggtlatlons as unoomplleated as pOssible bY, bamlng others who don't belong In the proceedings. You'll be able to more effec.tlvely d9al with things when they're simple.

Future interest rates won't be low if you file Chapter 13, but lenders have traditionally proven far more wi 11ing to deal with filers of Chapter 13 bankruptcy than those of Chapter 7.

With the debate over what to do with Social Security still ongoing, such advice seems to hold its weight. But for those cucrently on the cusp of retirement or even those who are already retired, managing your money, even tf you are receiving Social Security benefits, can be a difficult thing to do. Perhaps the biggest hurdle for many retirees is the increase in average life exwctancy. Thanks in large part to advancements in medicine and an overall societal shift where a greater emphasis has been placed on physical fitness, people are livitig longer these dl\ys. In spi!C of t.h~t. many retirees ~e not planmng on hvmg longer, meanmg their money is more likely to run out before they die. In the recent Retirement Confidence Survey conducted by the Employee Benefit Research Institute (EBRI), 18 percent of workers said they expect their retirement to last 10 years or less, wl)ile 15 percent said they expect retirement to last II to 19 years. In reality, those expectations are off the mark. Roughly half of all men who live to be 65 can and should expect to be alive at 82, while half of all women who live to be 65 can expect to see their 86th· birthday. That means male retirees should rlan for their retirement to run at least 7 years, while females should (>I an for almost 20. Plannmg for such a long haul can be difficult, to say the least. According to AARP, retirees should plan on needing somewhere between 70 to 80 percent of their p~retirement income. That can seem like an impossible mountain to climb for many, but the ri~t planning and investing should make It less daunting than it seemS. To ensure that you have sufficient funds come retirement, c~nsider the following precautions. • Exerci$e financial self-control . Whether you didn't save enough over the years, your investments. didn't pan out as well as you ho~d or you don't have a pension that will last as long as you will, you 'surely don't want to outlast rour financial resources, however smal or grandiose your portfolio may be. That means you'll need to tighten the purse strings a little. The best advice is to keep a cap on the amount you withdraw from your assets. While it might seem like a small number, financial advisors typically say retirees are putting themselves in a bad spot if they withdraw five percent or more of their total assets each year. The chances of going broke during retirement increase greatly when your withdrawal amount crosses the threshold of five percent. While withdrawing as little as possible is the most beneficial approach, somewhere . around three to four percent should allow you some freedoms and keep you secure down the road. It's also best to withdraw first from taxable accounts while steering clear of the money you have in tax-deferred accounts as long as possible. • Hold off on Social Security as long as you can. A great way to meet the AARP-suggested goal of maintaining 70 to 80 percent of yout pre-retirement income is to hold out as long as possible on collecting your Social Security benefits. Those who hold out the longest can expect to get around 40 percent of that {'re-retirement income back fr9m Soctal Security benefits. That can go a long way toward meeting the 70 ·to 80 percent barometer that should be your goal. . As many retirees are aware, however, you won't receive your full benefits unless you file after you've reached the full retirement age of 65. You can file as early as your 62nd birthday, but you 'II receive a reduced benefit for doing so. If you can hold out until age 65 or beyond, it's in your best interest · to do so. • Expect the unexpected. Even for youngsters, health is a concern. For the elderly, however, it is more of an immediate concern. Health-care expenses, even if you're currently in good shape, should be added in to your retirement budget. Also, consider your spouse's health and plan for their health-care costs as well. Saving for unforeseen health-care costs should be a chief concern. Such costs, when not planned for ..,. ahead of time, can greatly reduce the assets you have available to you in retirement. .• Conslde.r working. ·Whether it's consulting work or a part-time job just to get you out of the house, working can be a great way to supplement your retirement income. Oftentimes, seniors work flextime schedules or are allowed to telecomrnute or even compress their work schedules. For many retirees, this actually helps them feel better about themselves in retirement, as boredom or a lack of self-worth can settle in during retirement years. t SAVERFrigndly An Exclusive Produc:t From Fanners Bankl We never know where life wi.ll lead us- that's the beauty of it.

Many people reach adul~ood and have no idea how to manage money, "Vhich can result in bad credit, unpaid bills, and, o~ntimes, going back to mom and dad for financial assistance. Parents looking to avoid such a fate would be wise to teach their children about ,money at an early age. An allowance, particularly one with restrictions, is a great way to accom- · plish that. For instance, parents who give their children a $10 weekly allowance can mandate their children save at least $1 or $2 of that each week. These savings can tfien be placed into a savings account (most banks have saving accounts for children), where your child can see his or her money grow with interest and learn the value of saving some m<?ney, even the tiniest amount. . . Also, make deals with your children for certain things they want. For example, if your child has his eye on a video game that costs $30, tell him you'll split the cost of the game as soon as he saves up $15. Once your child has saved up $15 (which can seem like a lot to a child}, he might even reconsider buying the game at all, which could teach him the value of spending wisely as well. · .• Teach them bard work pays off. While it's important to establish parameters for your child's earning his allowance, make sure he knows those parameters are not necessarily set in stone and things can be adjusted if warranted. If he .~orks extra hard, give him a .httle more allowance. This can teach the valuable lesson that wqrking extra hard will reap more rewards. ._ To start planning for your life, please contact me today.

Perhaps none carry more weight than the numerous financial decisions that need to be made. Some are more common sense and obvious than others, while some are touchy subjects and need to be addressed carefully. Depending on their ages when married, newlyweds can have financial resources ranging from complicated portfolios including investments and property to just a savings or checking account. For newlyweds just ·starting their life together, the best thing to do is to sit down and discuss the following situations c~fully with your spouse. • Change ·beneficiaries on all accounts: Be it your 40l(k), a life or auto insurance policy, investment accounts or just your savings account at the local bank , once you ' re married you'd likely prefer your spouse to be the beneficiary in the case of an accident. This is not a complicated • ocess, and should be done as soon as possible .

Friday, August 31, 2007 Kids should study credit smarts (MS) - To most kids, being financially responsible consists of not spending their allowance or part-time paychecks·all at once. Since many kids have no monthly bills, handling money and balancing finances is something they ·don't even think about. · · Unfortunately, such a reality often leads to financial pitfalls, particularly when kids head off to college for the first time. It's no secret credit card companies target college kids, knowing full well such kids are eager to get their hands on the "free money" credit cards seem to be. However, as many college students soon learn, credit card debt is anything but free. In general, parents should educate their kids abol!t credit cards and how quickly they can get into serious debt if they don't approach credit cards responsibly. • Credit is essentially a loan: Most kids fail to recognize that credit is essentially a loan , and that creditors are lending agencies. With that loan comes an interest rate on an unpaid balance. For young people with little or no credit history, interest rates areI often very high. Kids should know that once they make a purchase with their credit card, they should then pay that item off entirely before the next billing cycle. If not , interest begins to accrue. • Don't buy what you cannot afford: Many students inake the mistake of using their credit card to purchase items they can't afford. Parents should explain to kids that if they can't afford the item in April, they likely won't be able to afford it in May, either, when the bill is due. Help kids determine what's a necessity and what's not. A new wardrobe is not a necessity, but new textboo~ likely are.

Friday, August 31, 2007 Kids should study credit smarts (MS) - To most kids, being financially responsible consists of not spending their allowance or part-time paychecks·all at once. Since many kids have no monthly bills, handling money and balancing finances is something they ·don't even think about. · · Unfortunately, such a reality often leads to financial pitfalls, particularly when kids head off to college for the first time. It's no secret credit card companies target college kids, knowing full well such kids are eager to get their hands on the "free money" credit cards seem to be. However, as many college students soon learn, credit card debt is anything but free. In general, parents should educate their kids abol!t credit cards and how quickly they can get into serious debt if they don't approach credit cards responsibly. • Credit is essentially a loan: Most kids fail to recognize that credit is essentially a loan , and that creditors are lending agencies. With that loan comes an interest rate on an unpaid balance. For young people with little or no credit history, interest rates areI often very high. Kids should know that once they make a purchase with their credit card, they should then pay that item off entirely before the next billing cycle. If not , interest begins to accrue. • Don't buy what you cannot afford: Many students inake the mistake of using their credit card to purchase items they can't afford. Parents should explain to kids that if they can't afford the item in April, they likely won't be able to afford it in May, either, when the bill is due. Help kids determine what's a necessity and what's not. A new wardrobe is not a necessity, but new textboo~ likely are.

Middleport Village Council was the first to approve the plan , taki ng action at last week' s regul&r meeting. Others are expected to follow. Meigs County Commissioner Mick Davenport said the plan requiring approval is an outline of basic system opera- lions, such as a budgetary. outlines, staffing and other elements of operation. The county's E-911 Plan is based largely on a plan implemented in Vinton County, where the 911 ~mer­ gency system operates from the shenff's department. The clock is ticking for county commissioners and the committee charged with implementing the system. Voters ' approved funding through a 50-cent telephone surcharge in November 2006. The system must be operational within the next year. , Commissioners Davenport and Jim Sheets said Thursday choosing a loca- tion for operating the system will be the next step in implementation. There are two options for locating the system. Sheriff Robert Beegle has agreed to locate the syst~m in his office, but space constraints and demands on his staff might require commissioners to put the operation in the EMS headquarters, Sheets said. A decision as to location of the servi ce must be made before eq uipment can be ordered or other decisions can be made, Sheets said, and a determination as to location could be made by early October. Sheets said two vendon have made very similar bids for the equipment needed to the system . operate Telephone customers have already begun to pay a 50cent monthly surcharge for 911 service, and funds from the Appalachian Regional Commission are expected _to · help the county purchase. the necessary equipment, which is estimated to cost approximately $120,000. The monthly telephone charge is expected to generate approximately $40,000. Vinton County collects less from its telephone ·charge and operates 1ts 911 system solely from that revenue. There will be no separate director for the 911 service. Instead, it will be supervised by either the sheriff or the EMS director, de(JC!nding on where the serv1ce is ultimately loca.ted. Davenport said one of the most complicated tasks associated wilh implementing the service appears to be completed - that of compiling a data base of addresses, telephone numbers and names, using telephone records provided by Verizon. Those "white sheets" have been sent to Verizon for review and approvaL Davenport said they must deemed to be at least 97 percent accurate by Verizon.
