Or maybe, ask Carl Edwards. ln last week's race at Michigan International Speedway, pole-sitter Kahne battled' back from a lap-down to the front of the pack with a series of well timed caution flaj!S and, when it came down to 11, his pit crew helped him get the wm. Kahne beat Edwards off pit road on the final pit stop by mere inches to remain ahead of him on the track, which proved the difference in the rain shortened race. Kahne managed to stay ahead of Edwards on the final laps to obtain his fourth win of the season as the clouds opened up on lap 129 of the sched· uled 200. And while a solid pit crew can win a race, they can also lose one.

Gordon missed it last year and does not want to do so again. "This is an important w,eek-. end for us," Gordon said. "But, as competitive as Nextel Cup i's these days, all of them are equally important. But we do need to get some momentum building.'' Not long ago, it was almost automatic for Gordon to win on one of the two Cup road courses. He leads all Cup drivers with eight victories on the tracks with both right and left harld turns. From August 1997 through June 2000 he won six straight_ three each at lnfineon and Watkins Glen InternationaL Gordon's record on the !.99-mile, 10-turri Infineon course includes a 'series-leading four wins, eight top fives, nine top lOs and 393 laps led in . 13 starts. He has led the - most laps in the race at _Sonoma six times, including 92 of II 0 laps in 12004, his last win at the track. But Tony Stewart is now the driver to beat on the road courses. Stewan, a five-time winner, is the defending champion and winner of two straight at Watkins Glen. "A lot can happen at Sonoma," Stewart said. "You've got to be patient all day. You get a lot of cautions there and a lot of guys end up beating and banging on each other. I mean, the cars look like they've been, to a race at Martinsville because it's a short road course. "Do what you have to do to get through the first 70 laps, but those last 20 are .the ones when you really have to go, and y9u need your car to be in one piece to make it happen." Stewart got his first win of 2005 at this track. He already has one victory iri-2006 and is sixth. in the points despite crashing out of last Sunday's race at Michigan, . finishing 41st. .Gordon has gone this -deep into a season without a victory only twice before - his winless rookie season of 1993 and 2002, when he won the first of three races in his 24th stan of the season. He finished fourth that year. In last year's visit to the Northern California ·track, Gordon started. second and led 32 laps before a . broken transmission left him in 33rdplace. "Because of our success here, it's easy to look at last year's result as playing a big role in us missing the Chase," Gordon said. "And it did. But our performances at other tracks were to blame as welL This weekend gives us the opportunity to get some pomts back." Gordon understands that tl\e competition has gotten tougher on the road courses. . 6f'eb. 2t -Auto Club 500, Fontana, Calif. {Matt Ken seth) )tlrch 12 - UAW·Dalmler Chrysler 400, Las Vega§ (Jimmie Johnson) · ~~ 18- Golden Corral 500, Hampton, Ga.

It was the Union Army of the Potomac that coined the phrase hardtack for the stuff made out of flour and water and salt and no yeast. Thus the biscuit was very hard. A ration of hardtack was usually nine pieces. Although the hardtack was nutritious, soldiers complained that they could eat I 0 of them in a short time and still be hungry. That is, they cou ld eat I0 whe1flhe hardtack was not too hard. Besides getting too hard, the hardtack sometimes came moldy. be lieved to have happened when it was boxed too soon after baking.

SIFE is an international non-profit organization active on more than 1,000 university campuses in more than 40 countries.

At the end of each school year, the SIFE teams put together a preseiitation showi ng the community service work that they did throughout the year, and then give the 'presentation at the competition. The Rio Grande SIFE team advanced to the · natipnal competition by winning at the regional level jn early spring. The team's winning projects included "Mission Possible, Live the Life of an Entrepreneur" and "Welcome to the Real World." . The "Mi ssion Possible" project was an origi nal business si mulation game that the STFE students pre sented to 279 students in grades 4-8 in the region. The "Real World" project taught the basics of budgeting to 460 students in junior high, high school and college. • At the national competi· tion, the Rio Grande team finished as the second runner-up in its league and was presented a trophy and cash prize. In addition, the Rio .Grande team's entry in the Motion Picture Association of America's public service announcement contest was selected as one of the finalists. The SIFE team members also had the opportuni ty to interview for jobs and internships during a two-day · <;areer fair at the national competition. SIFE team member Sarah Booth, who graduated from Rio Grande in the spring and lives in Vinton , said the team members were nervou s but confident at the national contest.

HAL KNEEN Several cattlemen have called concerning an abundance of face flies on their cattle and possible outbreaks of the disease pinkeye. Thi s bacteria disease, Moraxe lla bovis. is quickly spread around the herd by flies and poor grazing conditions. Bethany Lovaas, Di sease Specialist from University of Minnesota, suggests the following practices to reduce pinkeye incidents: Clip pastures to keep tall grass from irritating the eyes of cattle as they graze. If an overabundance of flies is the culprit, fly control can be · accomplished by putting on insecticide impregnated ear tags in the cows/calves, pouring onto the cows an oil based permethrin or pyrethroid insecticide or providing the cows with oilers and rubs (self application of insecticides). Lovaas reminds us to make sure you remove the eanags as their effectiveness decreases with time. Do not leave eanags. on after mid to late-October. For funher information visit ••• Have you looked at your lawn, garden and flower .beds? Much-needed rains and summer temperatures have arrived into the Ohio River valley region and have the plants grown ! The weather forecasters have predi cted a drier summer, so spread the . mulch on the garden. Shredded newspaper, straw (not hay, too many seeds), aged sawdust and compost are wonderful mulches. Mulching retains' moistute ·in the soil. It also provides a carbon source for the many microbes and ·other soil creatures. As the soil creatures digest the mulch they provide micronutrients for our olants an·d improve soil drainage by their tunneling. Before applying mulch either hoe or remove growing weeds. Rem~mber to hoe shallowly so you don ' t disturb your 'growing plants' roots. Street tree plantings have improved many of the downtown streets.

Their efforts are being conducted through the Beef Checkoff Program, which is funded by producers through :i $1-per-head assessment collected when beef animals are sold. According to Frank Phelps, Logan County beef producer and chairman of the Ohio Beef Council, higher costs and lower prices, along with increased supplies of competing meats such as pork and poultry, are causing normally-increased beef supplies · to be squeezed in an unusually . · ~dramatic way. "We knew we needed to step up to the plate and help move more beef during this difficult period," said Phelps. Joining other beef producers from states around the cou ntry, the Ohio producers are for the fifth consecutive year helpin~ fund the Summer Grilhng Campaign, featuring a partnership with Kraft Foods' A. l.® Steak Sauce ...., and Marinades, national radio advertising in the top 40 markets , which will . reach 94 percent of beef' s target audience guaranteed with pre-payment through L<1bor Day.

This is a physiological · disease caused cat-facing. At the time of pollination adverse weather conditions of low ·tempera.lures (55-60 degree F.) and dry conditions occurred. The fruit did not properly form and uptake nutrients to create the fruit tissue needed to complete the fmit. There is no cuie for the individual fruit affected. So remove the cat-faced fruit so the plant energy goes into the new fruit being formed. (Hal Kneen is the Meigs County Agriculture and Natural Resources Ohio State Educator, University Extension.) Fann Bureau taking basket or«Jers GALLIPOLIS The Gallia County Farm Bureau, in conjunction with Bob Evans Farms, is taking orders for the eighth edition of the Bob Evans Farm Festival Commemorative Basket The "Crock" basket IS priced at $49.50 and IS now available for order. Thi s year, the Farm Bureau is fealluing the medium crock, with a swinging handle, protector and lid . Presale baskets will be ·available for pick up on July 6 at Grace . Un ited Methodist C hurc h in Gallipolis from 3:30 to 6 :30p.m. The basket has been a longstanding collaboration for the Gallia County Farm Bureau with Bob Evans Fanns. The money the Farm Bureau raises goes toward Farm Bureau's scholarship fund and youth activities. Over the· years, the project has seen many changes, however, its goal has remained the same , which was to promote the festival and the local organization. The festival baskets will be limited to a line of ten, so act now and order your 2006 Crock Basket. To order call the Farm Bureau office today at (800) 777-9226. Remember baskets are on a first-come, first- serve basis, and only barbecue prizes is also bein g conducted. Another proactive partnership with Chinet® plates and Frank's RedHot® Sauce will feature .a beef promotion targeting 40 million U.S. consumers and focu ses on burg-. ers on the grill . A bee f-o riented newspaper in sert will be distributed in June through the partnership, and the trio will join on a beef grilli.n~ and ente,rtainment televiSion segment that airs in June and July on cable, reaching 8 million U.S. households witb plans for rebroadcast on public television throughGut the country. In addition to the radio advertising and Summer Grilling Promotion, The Beef Checkoff Program is funding two national print campaigns that highlight beef's enjoyment and nutrition messages. The ads will run in publications such as Food & Wine, Southern. Living and Sports Illustrated. Recognizing the beef industry 's current vulnerable position, state beef councils have joined together through the Federation of State Beef Councils to increase the nationwide promotions, with $2 million in the organization's reserves being dedicated to expand beef efforts nationwide. The drive, targeting con- · sumers ages 25-54, features radio advert ising, retail pr.omotions. an aggress ive public relati ons push and witlespread product sampling in cooperati on with major reta ilers. State beef councils, which collect the $ ! -per-head checkoff, co ntrol 50 cents of eac h dollar collected, and may invest in Federation efforts such as this one. By law, 50 cents of each dollar goes to the Cattlemen's Beef Board to fund national and international ·'programs. Aggressive plans for Beef Board-funded summer promotions, such as the 2006 Summer Gri!Hng Campaign, had already been put in place. " Because beef is the top meat for the grill , summer is a prime time to promote the product," accordi ng to Phelps. " In 2005, we were able to increase beef sales nearly 4 percent on a dollar basis versus 2004, despite a sli ghtly reduced s upply. With increased sup.rlies of all meats, we're definitely going to have to do better this year." To ensure that efforts in all key markets are · maxi mized, state beef councils are providing significant support to these efforts. Thi s support broadens the promotions to an even greater number of consumers. s·UNDAY PUZZLER LivESTOCK REPORT F~eder Cattle-Steady/Higher . 275-4 15# St. $100-$ 150 Hf. $ 100-$ 145 425-525# St. $100-$140 Hf. $100-$120 550-625# St. $98-$ 124 Hf. $95$1 15 650-725# St. $95-$118 Hf. $90-$100 750-850 St. $85-$98 Hf. $80-$95.

Ponds are pulling a disappearing act in water garden design. True, you're still seeing the standard flowing streams with their sJllashing waterfalls. But now the streams are flowing nowhere. They're vanishing instead' into gravelcovered or fountain-topped reservoirs that until recently would have been ponds. Pondless gardens or ''disappearing waterfalls" are all the rage this summer. Pond kits, although selling well, are becoming pass, said Keith Folsom, president of Springdale Water Gardens. at Greenville, Va. ''Some people are ·concerned about the liability issues associated with a · pond, real or perceived ,". Folsom said. ''Then there 's the maintenance . They want a water. garden but without the pond part of it. Water flows down a hillside but whhout replenishing a pond. It just ' disappears into a covered reservoir below." The industry focus was primarily on ponds just a couple of years ago. But water garden designers learned that many prospective buyers · weren't all that excited about keeping ponds free of algae, mosquitoes and leaves. Others didn 't have the space. Still others - homeowners, school administrators and business operators - were worried aboul safety, Folsom said. "Now you're selling to people . who want the rocks, the vegetation, the motion and all the sounds associated with a water garden. The· ·habitat. But they also want something that flows into a closed basin, a fountain, a pot or a fixture. · "They simply don't want the work involved. It 's a lot less effort to set one up and a lot .Jess · work to maintain without the traditional pond. Going pondless better fits the lifestyle of the busy gardener. We're seeing a major, major increase in that product line here/' For Jim Replogle, of Bridgewater, Va., it was a matter of removing an unwanted pond while retaining the look of a natural stream·. "We had a small pond we inherited when we bought the house," Replogle said. "It was never very satisfying. It collected debris from some overhanging hemlock tree s. It also collected insects and cats that wanted to play in it. It took more maintenance than I wanted to put into it. "We wanted something different but something that looked like God might have put it here." , Replogle got what' he wanted; but not until transplanting an estimated 15 lons of rock. "We couldn 't get any tractors or mechanical gear up behind the house so we did it by ·hand. Actually, bucket by bucket. We had all the fun we could stand." The stream !lows 20 yards down· a curved channel into what . he . ca ll s "a rocky mass." From there , the water goes into a small reservoir where an electric pump sends it back to the top where it 's . released · to flow down again. "It appears to be emerging from a hill," Replogle said. ''Our property is heavily wooded and rocky so it looks real natural." · That's pretty. much what Ed Beaulieu (buh-L00 1 ) had in mind when he designed the disappearing waterfalls. Beaulieu, vice president in charge of Field Research for Aquascape Designs Inc. in Batavia, Ill., is !len'eral ly credited with conceiving and popularizing the concept. Pondless ·systems are directed toward a· new and · different kind of buyer although many are being installed in yards already contai ning water gardens, Beaulieu said. Prices run about the same for both systems, but that can change if you 'run into unexpected costs for excavation and stone . "Locally, abou t 25 percent of all the water gardens are pondless," Beaulieu said. , · "Some areas of the country are just the opposite. · The Palestinians kill 2 soldiers, capture · t; Israel.threatens harsh reprisal, A2 Sunday, June 25, 2006 whole thing is site dependent. It also depends upon the local contractors and what they take a liking to." Disappearing waterfalls offer some economies, including a potential savings on power and water. The latter is especially important when operating. water gardens in arid climates or in drought-stricken regions. "They can be placed ·on a timer since they have no fish in them, " Beaulieu said. "They. can be shut down for extended periods without any problems and they can be designed with a larger basin to capture rainwater or runoff and store it underground for later use." Going pondless doesn't mean you won't be attracting any wildlife to your yard. "It can accommodate most anything you would lind in a .pond," Beaulieu said. 'That means dragonflies, amphibians and birds. You can have as much or that (animal life) as you want. It 's all up to the designer." Many people are choosir:~g not to install ponds with their water gardens because they lack the space , don't want the liability issues or have no interest in fish. For Jim Replogle of Bridgewater, Va., it was the maintenance - skimming debris from overhanging trees. He removed the pond he inherited with the purchase of the house in exchange for this natural appearing stream, which flows ·into a closed reservoir to be pumped back uphill. He can simply turn the system off if he wants to !>ave on power or water. On the Net: .

Shelly Materials reaching out to Portland Community SPORTS • Feeney Bennett gains big victory. See Page 81 BY 8ErH SERGENt: BSERGENT~MYpAILYSENTINEL.COM PORTLAND - Although Shelly Materials, Inc. . of Thornville has been in Meigs· County since the 196o's its local history has sometimes been a tumultuous one in the Portland area where the com,Pany owns lund containing Ohio's only Civil War battlefield, but now jt appears Shelly and some of its Portland neighbors are reaching out to one another. "We just want to be a good AP Photo neighbor and be part of the community tl\ere," Scott Wilson said, property manager for Shelly Material, Inc. Part of being a good neighl;lor was Shelly's recent donatinq;bf $60,000 worth of materials and labor to install a helipad and pave the driveway around the Portland Community Center. . Wilson said this donation came after Shelly was contacted by Portland Community Center Board President Mila Raymond about how the center and Shelly could work together to benefit the residents. That initial contact led to a meeting with Raymond, Wilson, Meigs County Commissioner Mick Davenport and Economic Development Director perry Varnadoe about how the company could give back to the community. "We realize we've been in the Portland community and Meigs County for a long time," Wilson acknowledged. "We recognize the fact the county doesn't have a lot of revenue right now and we're trying to give back." 'There's no pos~ible way we could afford this right now, I don't know how many years it would' ve taken," Raymond said of the helipad and driveway. "It's nice that they (Shelly) are giving back to the community." The $60,000 investment wiU count towards matching grant funds the center is currently pursuing according to Raymond. ·These grimt funds will likely be used for more in1provements to the fonner Portland Grade School which will house its Civil War ·Museum currently under con-' struction. Raymond hopes the museum will be opened by the time Morgan's Raid II rides into town in September. . This year, for the ftrst time, the .Umon and Confederate Cavalry reenactors will be permined to recreate the historic Civil War battle on land where it actually took place, land Please see Portland, AS Think ·Pink l'IWetings offer advree on breast health, ·.. self-exams and doQr prizes: BY BETH SERGENT BSERGENT@MYDAILYSENTINEL.COM INSIDE POMEROY - In the simplest of words, free advice on. breast self-exams, free door prizes and free refreshments · await women who attend the Meigs County Cancer Initiative 's (MCCI) Think Pink meetiqgs, the latest of which is at 7 p.m. tomorrow at the Meigs County Senior .
