The Middle East's oil is by

dependable. But Middle
Eastern oil is absolutely
essenlial to other areas. of
the globe --'- most notably
Western Europe. If it were
denied lo lhem, their
economies would grind to

a

And the United States
could not permit that. For

effects on our own economy would be disastrous .
So Middle Eastern oil

thiol: about that when we first
moved into the bouse last summer. "Does the basement ever
flood ?'' we asked lhe trustee
chair. "Not that I'm aware of."
he said. "That sump pump
does n great job taking care of
water trying to seep into lhe
basement."
When the house had new
gutters installed last fall. we
changed the way water flowed
from the bouse . Before. the
gutters emptied directly into
the sump pump: now they
dellected water at the surface . I
thought all of those measures
would protect us. Now, 1 can
only imagine how badly we
would have flooded if the rain

the tr;Jshed stuff was of great

me of several scripture passages.

Feed tbe Hungry

one-sixth of the world's population) subsist
ooless thana dollar a dey, aDd tOOl lib' 40!'
ti&gt;es on less than ltw dollars a dey, oa:ording
to the United Nationa. So, eYell if they
had accesstothe dolarmenu, it wouldnl
do them much good. It is eeay enough in
the we.llfhy, dewllped countries of the
world to feed ourselves; indeed, many of
us suffer from the effects of h/l.ving too
much food, Al:coniing to the CDC,
1\01()-thirda ofArnericans are
overWeight. Bu~ in the developing
world, food is 8CanJe aDd poorly
distribuiOO. And although it is
probahtj too simplistic of an opproo:h,
il would go a bog wey fuoliards

WHERE! Nothing was spared.
i I'm sure some people reading this are shalting their heads
and thinl:ing. ~you Should have

board on your floor." We did
thiol: about that when we first
moved into the bouse last summer. "Does the basement ever
flood ?'' we asked lhe trustee
chair. "Not that I'm aware of."
he said. "That sump pump
does n great job taking care of
water trying to seep into lhe
basement."
When the house had new
gutters installed last fall. we
changed the way water flowed
from the bouse . Before. the
gutters emptied directly into
the sump pump: now they
dellected water at the surface . I
thought all of those measures
would protect us. Now, 1 can
only imagine how badly we
would have flooded if the rain
gutters ·still went to the sump.
· So. instead of a nice, quiel
evening. my wife and I were

boxes and emptying the worst
of them in hopes of salvaging
their contents. We filled a 6Q..
gallon trnshcan with stuff that
was clearly beyond repair. and
tilled every flai surfa~:e with
the rest.. Fonunalely. little of
the tr;Jshed stuff was of great
value - financially or senti·
mentally. But going 1hrough all
of those possessions reminded
me of several scripture passages.

actual person that is their namesake. Valentine (or Valentinus)
was a Christian who lived during the third century. Claudius II
(also known as Claudius

that Claudius was impressed

Due to the insistence of

scrapped in final negotiations. As a compromise,
money from a $40 billion

Racing late last -year, and is
clinging to an eight-race
deal with Richard Petty
Motorsports. Riggs became
unemployed when Tony
Stewart took control of his
race team and revamped the
driver lineup.
Smith was a casualty of
the merger between Dale
Earnhardt Inc . and Chip
Ganassi Racing. while
Mayfield has been oUt of
full-time work since Ray
Evemham fired him midway
through the 2006 season:
Allmendinger, who failed
to make the 500 in his first
two NASCAR seasons with
Red Bull, will finally be able
to rest after a. stressful
buildup to the qualifying
races .
"I've been so nervous over
the last couple days 'cause
I've been in this position the
last

Allmendinger said. "But I
really felt like this year I
deserved to be in the race,
that this team deserved to be
·in the race."

Mayfield has felt the same
way. watching from ·. the
sidelines as NASCAR
roared on without him .
With no ride lined up.
Mayfield at the last minute
threw his own team together
for one last try. He's got a
mismatched group of volunteers, and after loaned-out
jackman Kyle Roland was
injured while pitting Kirk
Shelmerdine 's car during the
first
qualifying
race.
Mayfield borrowed an emergency replacement from
Michael Waltrip's crew.
"Man, 23 days ago we
didn't eve11 have a race
team," Mayfield said after
finishing ninth in the second
'lualifier. "It's a very unbelievable feeling. To .know
where we were at then. how
much hard .work has been
done in such a short amount
of time is just unbelievable.
To come here and do this,
it's like winning 10 races."

Se6g on A-Rod: 'Shamed the gan,e'

•

TAMPA. · Aa. (AP) Unable to punish Alex
Rodriguez for flunking a
drug test that was supposed
to be anonymous. Bud Selig
could only chastise him.
"Wbat Alex did wa$
wrong and he will have to
live with the damage he has
done to his name and reputation,» the commissioner said
Thursday, three days after
the Yankees star admitted
using banned substances
from 2001·2003 while playing for the Texas Rangers. ,
"While Alell deserves
credit for publicly confronting the issue. there is no
valid ellcuse for using such
substances, and those who
use them have shamed the
game," Selig said.
Rodriguez's admission
followed a Sports Illustrated
report that he was on a list of
104 players who tested positive for steroids in 2003.
when testing was intended
only to determine the elltent
of steroid use in baseball.
The results were seized by
the government in 2004 and
remain under seal.
Because it was an anonymous test and because
Rodriguez's
confession
involved years before the
drug agreement took effect,
there is little Selig c.an do in
terms of punishment.
Players and owners didn't
agree to a joint drug program until August 2002, and
testing with runishmeni didn't start unti 2004.
"It is important to remember that these recent revelations relate to pre-program
activity.'' Selig said. "Under
our current drug program, if
you are caught using
steroids and/or amphetamines, you will be punished.
Since 2005, every player
who has tested positive for
steroids has been suspended
for as much as 50 games."
Yankees manager Joe
Girardi, speaking after his
first staff· meeting of spring
training, said he wasn't sure
whether

Oklahoma State pitcher
Andrew Oliver was reinstated to the team on Thursday
when an Ohio judge tossed
out an NCAA rule that prevents college baseball players from hiring advisers who
are in direct contact with big
league clubs.
Oliver filed a lawsuit after
he was ruled ineligible. The
NCAA suspended him last
spring because it said advisers he had hired listened in on
contract negotiations after he

into this effort. After racing
just 25 times over the past
two years, and failing .to
draw much interest when
rides became available,
starting his own team
became the last option in
continuing his career.
"If I ever want to retire as
a driver, I want to retire on .
my own, not be pushed to
the wayside," Mayfield
said: "That's what kept me
motivated to do this."
Riggs could relate after a
fruitless offseason job
search had him still scouring for work last month.
He was fimllly swayed by
Tommy Baldwm, who was
crew chief and competition ·
director at Bill Davis
Racing before ·the sponsorstrapped team folded in late
December. Baldwin was
putting together a startup
race team, and lured Riggs
to the driver seat.
"It came down to a point
that I had to make a decision - am I going to sit at .
home.and stay on the phone
and call people and hope
that something opens up to
give me an or,portunity to
get in the car? ' Riggs said.
"Or am I going to go down
to Daytona and start the season off with somebody like
Tommy?
"What. really made the
decision for me was when I
talked to Tommy and just
I

heard the passion in his
voice. Man, I am just elated."
So was Gordon, who
ended the longest winless
drought of his career by
winning the first duel.
The four-tiine Cup champion, coming off his first
winless season since his
1993 rookie year, climbed
from his car in Victory Lane
and immediately reached
for his young daughter. Ella
was just an infant during his
last victory celebration, in
October 2007.
"I've been . fortunate
enough to visit Victory
Lane quite a few times, but
not many times as a father,"
Gordon said. 'There's nothing more special than that."
The non-points Gatorade
Duel doesn't · officially
count for anything in
Gordon's victory total, but
gave him a second-row
·starting spot in Sunday's
race .
It also gave him muchneeded momentum after his
disappointing 2008 seaso.n.
"Who says we can't
win?" Gordon asked. "This
team has been unbelievable.
We all know what we went
through last year by not
winning. There's a lot of
ellpectations on this team,
but ·they never wavered. The
guys just kept working
hard, building great race
cars.
:·rm really elicited about
.the Daytona 500 after. that
race. It's. been awhile since
.I've been to Victory Lane.

I've got to take advantage
of this."
Busch also made an overdue return to Victory Lane,
where he was a frequent
visitor last season before
tailing off when the championship was on the line.
Busch won eight races last
year and led the Cup standmgs most of the season. but
started to falter in August
and fell apart when the

Chase for the championship
began.
A victory in the duel - ·
he held off a late charge
from sentimental .favorite
Mark Martin and used help ·
from teammate Denny ·
Hamlin - has helped him
regain momentum.
"It was u disappointin¥,
season toward the end. ·
Busch said, "sp that was a
great way to start it off."

Se6g on A-Rod: 'Shamed the gan,e'

•

TAMPA. · Aa. (AP) Unable to punish Alex
Rodriguez for flunking a
drug test that was supposed
to be anonymous. Bud Selig
could only chastise him.
"Wbat Alex did wa$
wrong and he will have to
live with the damage he has
done to his name and reputation,» the commissioner said
Thursday, three days after
the Yankees star admitted
using banned substances
from 2001·2003 while playing for the Texas Rangers. ,
"While Alell deserves
credit for publicly confronting the issue. there is no
valid ellcuse for using such
substances, and those who
use them have shamed the
game," Selig said.
Rodriguez's admission
followed a Sports Illustrated
report that he was on a list of
104 players who tested positive for steroids in 2003.
when testing was intended
only to determine the elltent
of steroid use in baseball.
The results were seized by
the government in 2004 and
remain under seal.
Because it was an anonymous test and because
Rodriguez's
confession
involved years before the
drug agreement took effect,
there is little Selig c.an do in
terms of punishment.
Players and owners didn't
agree to a joint drug program until August 2002, and
testing with runishmeni didn't start unti 2004.
"It is important to remember that these recent revelations relate to pre-program
activity.'' Selig said. "Under
our current drug program, if
you are caught using
steroids and/or amphetamines, you will be punished.
Since 2005, every player
who has tested positive for
steroids has been suspended
for as much as 50 games."
Yankees manager Joe
Girardi, speaking after his
first staff· meeting of spring
training, said he wasn't sure
whether
he

Andrew Oliver was reinstated to the team on Thursday
when an Ohio judge tossed
out an NCAA rule that prevents college baseball players from hiring advisers who
are in direct contact with big
league clubs.
Oliver filed a lawsuit after
he was ruled ineligible. The
NCAA suspended him last
spring because it said advisers he had hired listened in on
contract negotiations after he

into this effort. After racing
just 25 times over the past
two years, and failing .to
draw much interest when
rides became available,
starting his own team
became the last option in
continuing his career.
"If I ever want to retire as
a driver, I want to retire on .
my own, not be pushed to
the wayside," Mayfield
said: "That's what kept me
motivated to do this."
Riggs could relate after a
fruitless offseason job
search had him still scouring for work last month.
He was fimllly swayed by
Tommy Baldwm, who was
crew chief and competition ·
director at Bill Davis
Racing before ·the sponsorstrapped team folded in late
December. Baldwin was
putting together a startup
race team, and lured Riggs
to the driver seat.
"It came down to a point
that I had to make a decision - am I going to sit at .
home.and stay on the phone
and call people and hope
that something opens up to
give me an or,portunity to
get in the car? ' Riggs said.
"Or am I going to go down
to Daytona and start the season off with somebody like
Tommy?
"What. really made the
decision for me was when I
talked to Tommy and just
I

heard the passion in his
voice. Man, I am just elated."
So was Gordon, who
ended the longest winless
drought of his career by
winning the first duel.
The four-tiine Cup champion, coming off his first
winless season since his
1993 rookie year, climbed
from his car in Victory Lane
and immediately reached
for his young daughter. Ella
was just an infant during his
last victory celebration, in
October 2007.
"I've been . fortunate
enough to visit Victory
Lane quite a few times, but
not many times as a father,"
Gordon said. 'There's nothing more special than that."
The non-points Gatorade
Duel doesn't · officially
count for anything in
Gordon's victory total, but
gave him a second-row
·starting spot in Sunday's
race .
It also gave him muchneeded momentum after his
disappointing 2008 seaso.n.
"Who says we can't
win?" Gordon asked. "This
team has been unbelievable.
We all know what we went
through last year by not
winning. There's a lot of
ellpectations on this team,
but ·they never wavered. The
guys just kept working
hard, building great race
cars.
:·rm really elicited about
.the Daytona 500 after. that
race. It's. been awhile since
.I've been to Victory Lane.

I've got to take advantage
of this."
Busch also made an overdue return to Victory Lane,
where he was a frequent
visitor last season before
tailing off when the championship was on the line.
Busch won eight races last
year and led the Cup standmgs most of the season. but
started to falter in August
and fell apart when the

Chase for the championship
began.
A victory in the duel - ·

from sentimental .favorite
Mark Martin and used help ·

something Earnhardt does on
the track.
"I like tho.'le kind of things.

He thought track owners

Some thought his move from

Wouli:l team owner Rick
Hendrick try to tum Earnhardt

· "From the very fi~t time· we ·

what the nttraction is to him.

It wasn't always that way.
Junior didn't 'want to be

GLANCE AT DRIVERS IN THE 2009 SPRINT CUP SERIES

STEWART P~ JUS STAMP All OVER NEW NASCAR TEAM

KANNAPOLIS. N.C. (AP)
- The chrome bumper. of a
1957 Chevrolet Bel Air is one
of the first things visitors notice
when they walk through the
doors of Stewart-Haas Racing.
Encased in the cashier stand
in the gill shop, the bumper is
equipped with an authentic
lndianu license plate - AF
3383 -- from the sa111e vintage
year.
The light lixtures are all retro,
the bam door-like entrance to
the shop floor replicates an old
garage stall at Indianapolis
Motor Speedway ,und the Siding
on the walls is meant to remind
visitors of the kind of place
where racers ·worked on their
cars all week then hauled them
off to whatever track paid the
most that weekend.
Yes, Tony Stewart's stamp is
all·over his latest acquisition: a
Sprint Cup race team that oozes .
with his passion for the old
days. when racing was fun and
not big business. ·
Only Stewart-Haas Racing is
very big business, eclipsing the
collection of racetracks and
sprint car teams he's already
assembled. But the chance to
run his own organization at the
highest level in NASCAR was
too great to pass up, so the twotime series chamyion left the
cozy confines o Joe Gibbs
Racing after I0 super successful seasons to enter into the
maddening world of a driver
and a team owner. ·
"He had an option · that we
couldn't match," JGR president
J.D. Gibbs said. "Th1s was a
chance for him to go out there
and own a team and do what he
wanted to do."
He finalized his decision in
July, .then spent several months

assemblirlg the key personnel
needed to reshape the slumping
Haas CNC Racing team he
inherited.
When he opened the shop
doors to the media Wednesday,
his leadership flanking him as
they sat atop a riser, it was clear
he'd assembled a group of racers who share his passion, commitment and ideas on how racing is supposed to be,
. "Gettin~ this group of people
that are Sitting with me up on
the stage. that was the hardest
part," Stewart said. "Once we
got this group hired, it was easy
for me to step back and start
learning. It goes back to what
we've said all along and I've
learned from Joe (Gibbs) you hire the .right people to do
the right jobs. You don't sit
there and put your hand over
their. shoulder and look over
their shoulder and microman-

age."

.
It
starts with Bobby
Hutchens, who left his longtime
management role with Richard
Childress Racing to · be
Stewart's director of competition.
Too scared to look at budgets
and line items, Stewart has
given Hutchens full cQntrol of
the purse strings and the planninf.
" think one reason they
brought me in •here was they
had enough confidence to know
I wasn't going to blow a bunch
of money," Hutchens said. "You
can spenp a lot of money, and
you can spend a lot of money on
the wrong things. Hopefully.
where we have spent money, IS
upgrading some things that
when we came in the door we
felt needed to be af a little different leveL"
That included a pair of new

GLANCE AT DRIVERS IN THE 2009 SPRINT CUP SERIES

STEWART P~ JUS STAMP All OVER NEW NASCAR TEAM

KANNAPOLIS. N.C. (AP)
- The chrome bumper. of a
1957 Chevrolet Bel Air is one
of the first things visitors notice
when they walk through the
doors of Stewart-Haas Racing.
Encased in the cashier stand
in the gill shop, the bumper is
equipped with an authentic
lndianu license plate - AF
3383 -- from the sa111e vintage
year.
The light lixtures are all retro,
the bam door-like entrance to
the shop floor replicates an old
garage stall at Indianapolis
Motor Speedway ,und the Siding
on the walls is meant to remind
visitors of the kind of place
where racers ·worked on their
cars all week then hauled them
off to whatever track paid the
most that weekend.
Yes, Tony Stewart's stamp is
all·over his latest acquisition: a
Sprint Cup race team that oozes .
with his passion for the old
days. when racing was fun and
not big business. ·
Only Stewart-Haas Racing is
very big business, eclipsing the
collection of racetracks and
sprint car teams he's already
assembled. But the chance to
run his own organization at the
highest level in NASCAR was
too great to pass up, so the twotime series chamyion left the
cozy confines o Joe Gibbs
Racing after I0 super successful seasons to enter into the
maddening world of a driver
and a team owner. ·
"He had an option · that we
couldn't match," JGR president
J.D. Gibbs said. "Th1s was a
chance for him to go out there
and own a team and do what he
wanted to do."
He finalized his decision in
July, .then spent several months

assemblirlg the key personnel
needed to reshape the slumping
Haas CNC Racing team he
inherited.
When he opened the shop
doors to the media Wednesday,
his leadership flanking him as
they sat atop a riser, it was clear
he'd assembled a group of racers who share his passion, commitment and ideas on how racing is supposed to be,
. "Gettin~ this group of people
that are Sitting with me up on
the stage. that was the hardest
part," Stewart said. "Once we
got this group hired, it was easy
for me to step back and start
learning. It goes back to what
we've said all along and I've
learned from Joe (Gibbs) you hire the .right people to do
the right jobs. You don't sit
there and put your hand over
their. shoulder and look over
their shoulder and microman-

age."

.
It
starts with Bobby
Hutchens, who left his longtime
management role with Richard
Childress Racing to · be
Stewart's director of competition.
Too scared to look at budgets
and line items, Stewart has
given Hutchens full cQntrol of
the purse strings and the planninf.
" think one reason they
brought me in •here was they
had enough confidence to know
I wasn't going to blow a bunch
of money," Hutchens said. "You
can spenp a lot of money, and
you can spend a lot of money on
the wrong things. Hopefully.
where we have spent money, IS
upgrading some things that
when we came in the door we
felt needed to be af a little different leveL"
That included a pair of new

"I am not telling anyone how to
do their job," Earnhardt said. "I
have an opinion and you all asked
me what it was. If people agree,
they agree. If they don't agree then
they don't agree.! am not the damn
voice of reason by no means."
Maybe not, but new teammate Mark Martin said
Earnhardt has "th.e broadest,

probably ever in NASCAR."
Earnhardt might be uble to

. With all the hype that surround~
ed his move to Hendrick last season, in many ways he failed to

Chase for the championship
(started fourth) but finished 12th.
Earnhardt feels much more
comfortable this season and
believes that if a few things go his
way, the voice.of NASCAR could
become a-champion ofNASCAR.
"We kind of have an idea
that we ·are .a pretty good

"I am not telling anyone how to

have an opinion and you all asked
me what it was. If people agree,
they agree. If they don't agree then
they don't agree.! am not the damn
voice of reason by no means."
Maybe not, but new teammate Mark Martin said
Earnhardt has "th.e broadest,
strongest shoulders of anybody
probably ever in NASCAR."

ed his move to Hendrick last season, in many ways he failed to

Earnhardt feels much more

believes that if a few things go his

"We kind of have an idea
that we ·are .a pretty good
