Thermostat Wars
Q:
Im having kind of a battle
with my mother-in-law. She
insists on dialing the thermostat
all the way down to the left (50
degrees F.) in the morning, saying
that this will cool down the house
faster. Correct me if Im wrong,
but doesnt this stress out the air
conditioner? Is there a better way
to cool down the house? How can I
convince her of it? Jerry in Little
Rock, Ark.
A:
Its definitely not the most
efficient way to cool a house,
although Im not sure if my advice
will help convince your mother-in-
law. You can lead a horse to water,
but you cant make it drink, one adage
goes. Still, its worth a try, as this kind
of extreme thermostat exercise costs
money in terms of the power used to
generate all that cool air.
Many people try to save money by
turning the air conditioning unit com-
pletely off after the sun goes down.
This can work, but as your mother-in-
law has found out, once the summer
sun comes up, the house takes longer
to cool down. Dropping the thermo-
stat temperature selector 20 degrees
does not make this process any faster.
A more efficient way to keep the
house at a comfortable temperature
would be to raise the thermostat just
four to six degrees at night (or when
shes out of the house for a long time
during the day). In the morning, or
when she returns from work or her
shopping trip, she should then set the
thermostat back down to the daytime
temperature that is most comfortable
for her.
An even better way especially if
she just keeps cranking that old ana-
log thermostat down would be to
install a digital thermostat. These can
be installed in the same spot as the old
analog thermostat, usually with the
same wiring.
The advantage of the digital ther-
mostat is twofold: First, it can be set
at exactly the temperature she wants.
Second, it can be programmed to
automatically raise or lower the tem-
perature at the times you specify. So,
if she wants the house to be warmer
at night, the digital thermostat can be
programmed to raise the temperature
until a set time ... say, 6 a.m., when it
will lower the temperature to her pre-
ferred daytime levels.

Women Vets Polled
on Health Care
The American Legion recently
asked women veterans about the
health care provided by Department
of Veterans Affairs. While the survey
indicates an overall positive feeling,
there is a lot of room for improve-
ment, especially when compared to
civilian health care.
Here are some of the results from
the 67-question survey:
Access: Approachable and easy
to contact? One-third of the women
were dissatisfied, mostly with their
Women Veterans Program Manager,
when it came to getting information
about gender-specific care. One-
quarter said the convenience of the
locations is poor.
Competence: Most respondents
were satisfied with the medical staffs
level of knowledge and skills, but one
quarter werent, and thats a big per-
centage.
Reliability: Ability to perform ser-
vices accurately and dependably.
Nearly one-third were dissatisfied
with VA health care, compared with
their private doctors.
Communication: Forty percent
didnt feel that they were given
enough information on treatments
and procedures.
Responsiveness: Willingness to
provide prompt care. One-third
responded that they were dissatisfied,
compared with their civilian doctors.
Credibility: Believability and hon-
esty of the staff. Compared with their
civilian doctors, many of the women
were dissatisfied. It was suggested
that the VA adopt some of the prac-
tices of private health care.
Finally, one-third of the women
veterans who replied to the survey
dont know what all their benefits are
health care or otherwise.
While women veterans comprise
a smaller percentage of service per-
sonnel, theyve earned the right to
good care. If nothing else, no veteran
should have to wonder what his or her
benefits are.

Retirement is
Major Concern
More and more of us are con-
cerned about how were going to
pay for retirement, or whether
can retire at all, especially as the
economy has soured. Te Society
of Actuaries recently issued a report
entitled Te Impact of the Econo-
my on Retirement Risks about how
were handling our fears.
Nearly half of those polled who
have not yet retired are very con-
cerned about retirement fnances,
much more so than ever before.
Two-thirds of retirees surveyed
say their fnances are worse than be-
fore the economy took a downturn,
with a quarter saying much worse.
For those not yet retired, the fgures
are even higher. Tose who banked
on having return from investments
have suffered from low interest
rates, and those who considered
their home a nest egg for retire-
ment money are hard hit.
A quarter of retirees fear they
might need to return to work, while
two-thirds who havent retired think
theyll need to work longer.
People who havent yet retired
have more concerns than those
who have already retired. Te major
concerns are paying for long-term
health care, the falling value of in-
vestments, running out of money,
inability to maintain a standard of
living and not having anything to
leave to heirs.
Seniors have more debt than they
expected to have at retirement. But
if theres a retirement strategy the
majority agreed on, its this: Get
rid of consumer and mortgage
debt before retirement by paying
of credit cards and cutting back
on spending for gifts, vacation and
restaurants.
If you want to see how you com-
pare to others in this survey, go to
www.soa.org and put the name of
the report in the quick search box.

MIDDLETOWN After count-
less hours spent going line-by-line
through the budget, arguing over
town needs versus cost to tax
payers, trouble with the sewage
treatment plant, and water rate
increases, Middletown fnally ap-
proved a budget for FY 2012.
Te $1,828,688 budget is a work-
ing budget; Council expects to be
continuously adjusting numbers,
and to review the budget at the six
month mark.
Up until the fnal vote, the bud-
get remained a contentious issue.
Citizens and council members
alike questioned the numbers in
the budget. Town Treasurer Sha-
ron Fidaly was excused from the
meeting by Mayor Mark Brown to
review some fgures, and to report
back to council.
Citizens and council members
continued to question recent hires
by the town, salary adjustments,
and other suggested cost cutting
measures that were not adopted
by council.
In the end, with the full council
in attendance, the budget was ap-
proved, with both Councilmembers
Donna M.D. Gray and Charles H.
Harbaugh IV voting against the
budget.
Even as council was arguing over
the cost of the budget, the list of
bills that need to be paid increased.
Te water main break on Fourth
Street earlier this year proved very
expensive.
Council unanimously agreed to
pay bills for gravel, excavation and
pump work. New chains purchased
for the sewage treatment plant
brought more debate over the
problems with the plant, and who
should pay the cost. Since most of
the chain was already used in the
plant, council voted to pay for the
chain, with Councilmember Carl H.
Bernhards voting against the pay-
ment, and Councilmember Mark
H. Davis abstaining.
After debating whether to get a
cell phone plan for eight employees
or 13, ofcials decided it was both
a safety issue and a cost savings to
get 13 phones. Currently, many
employees are using personal cell
phones to stay in contact with their
respective department. Mainte-
nance workers working alone on
dangerous projects have no means
of communication in case of an
emergency. Police ofcers are giv-
ing out their personal cell phone
numbers to the public. Te plan for
13 phones passed, with Council-
member Gray the sole no vote.
Council also unanimously agreed
to pay up to $4,245 to fx the alley
behind the Irish Isle, and up to $372
to install lights in the park.
Council unanimously approved
the presentation of bills put forth
by the Personnel and Finance
Committee.
Council unanimously agreed to
place Watch for Children signs as
requested by a resident, signs to be
provided by the Virginia Depart-
ment of Transportation.
Ofcials unanimously approved
the creation of a Summer Youth
Program. The program, which
will be 90 percent funded by grant
money, will hire two youths to work
for the town for the summer. Te
program will have a training com-
ponent, teaching the youths about
recycling, yard waste management,
and equipment usage, among oth-
ers things. Te cost of the program
is estimated to be $2,800. Applica-
tions are at the town ofce.
Mark Perry, a representative from
H2O Innovation, spoke with the
Council regarding problems with
the chains delivered to the sewage
treatment plant. Perry would like
the town to help ofset the cost of
the chains. Mayor Brown respond-
ed that he believed all of the faulty
chains were under warranty. Perry
responded, in light of the budget
situation in town, he would send
technicians to the sewage treat-
ment plant as soon as possible to
review the problems at the plant,
and to review the warranty issue.
Police reported 36 calls for ser-
vice, and 43 citations written. Te
mayor warned everyone the Click
it or Ticket campaign was ongo-
ing, and if anyone wanted to con-
tribute to the budget, they could be
caught without their seatbelt on.
Council unanimously approved
the first and second reading of
an ordinance that will bring the
zoning fees in line with neighbor-
ing towns. Ofcials postponed a
vote on a real estate tax increase,
in order to review written com-
ments provided during the public
hearing.
Council voted to proceed with the
process to move the date of town
elections from May to November,
to coincide with the fall elections.
Mayor Brown stated that Stephens
City also is moving its voting to
the fall. The move is designed
as a cost saving measure, since
Middletown will only be charged
for its share of the costs of voting.
Councilmember John Blaisdell, Jr.
speculated that the move will in-
crease Middletowns voter turnout.
Council vote was a tie, with Coun-
cilmembers Gray, Harbaugh and
Gerald D. Sinclair voting against
the move. For the first time,
Brown got to vote on the Council;
he voted for the move.

Ann Legge was presented with
the Middletown Citizen of the
Year award for her 50 years of
service to Middletown. Legge
was presented a dozen roses
from the Council and Town em-
ployees, and given four tickets to
the Wayside Teatre.
Council officially appointed
members to the Board of Zon-
ing Appeals as follows: Teresa
Cangiano-Klimm, until Sept. 26,
2012; James Hall, until Sept. 26,
2013; Anita Holley, until Sept.

F
armers, vintners, and hom-
eowners could benefit from
provisions in a bill moving through
the House that would make fght-
ing the brown marmorated stink
bug infestation a greater priority
for the United States Department
of Agriculture (USDA), according
to Rep. Frank Wolf (R-VA).
Wolf worked with Agriculture
Appropriations subcommittee
chairman Rep. Jack Kingston
(R-GA) to include new directives
for the USDA undersecretary of
research in the FY 2012 spending
bill approved by the full Appro-
priations Committee on May 31.
Te new provisions specifcally
direct the four research agencies
of the USDA to identify and de-
velop efective stink bug control
methods.
The committee felt that the
USDA was not working aggres-
sively enough to fnd a solution to
this critical problem, said Wolf.
Weve now worked to single out
the stink bug problem as one of
the top priorities for all research
agencies at the department.
Another key provision instructs
the USDA to work collaboratively
with state partners to identify and
implement controls for stink bug
invasions.
Te bill is pending consideration
by the full House, expected later
this month.
Stopping the destructive brown
marmorated stink bug whose in-
fux some have likened to a plague
of locusts has been a top prior-
ity for Wolf, who has held a town
hall meeting in his district so that
scientists and experts could share
ideas for control methods with
local farmers and growers.
Ive seen frst-hand the damage
that stink bugs are causing to local
fruit and vegetable growers and we
have to do something to mitigate
the economic damage caused by
these pests, said Wolf. I hope this
legislation will make this problem
the top priority for USDA research
agencies.

U.S. Sen. Mark R. Warner (D-
VA) and Rep. Frank Wolf (R-VA-
10) today announced a bipartisan
legislative push to encourage the
creation of new manufacturing
jobs here in America, strengthen
worker training and industry cer-
tifcation programs, and expand
U.S. exports.
Te Warner/Wolf partnership,
launched after the U.S. unem-
ployment rate edged up to 9.1
percent in May.
Americas competitors for these
solid, good-paying manufacturing
jobs are nations like India, China
and Korea countries which have
consistently offered generous
incentives to attract investment
and jobs, Senator Warner said.
Our legislation provides more
tools for states and localities, al-
lowing them to tip the balance by
providing an additional fnancial
incentive and a trained, quali-
fed workforce as employers are
considering where to open new
factories and hire new workers.
Tis initiative builds upon Sen.
Warners 2010 America Recruits
Act, which establishes additional
federal incentives for employers
creating new jobs in rural and
economically challenged regions
of the country. It also incorporates
elements of Rep. Wolf s Bring Jobs
Back to America Act, introduced
in March 2011, which would start
the process of bringing jobs back
to America that have relocated
overseas during the last two de-
cades.
I believe that a strong manu-
facturing and technology de-
velopment base is critical to job
creation and the economic com-
petitiveness of the United States,
Rep. Wolf said. However, we have
been far too slow in responding
to our international economic
competitors in this era of global
markets and competition. This
legislation helps to re-focus the
United States to be more proac-
tive and a smarter competitor in
the global economy - both in the
short-term and long-term. We
cannot aford to wait. Our inter-
national competitors arent.
Tis Warner/Wolf jobs initiative
has been endorsed by leading
nonpartisan, nonproft organiza-
tions that promote U.S. innova-
tion, economic competitiveness
and new job creation.
I commend the leadership
of Senator Warner and Con-
gressman Wolf to increase U.S.
competitiveness and incentivize
more globally-headquartered
companies to boost their U.S.
employment, said Nancy McLer-
non, President & CEO of the
Organization for International
Investment.

WINCHESTER A sex crime
against a Frederick County youth
committed more than a year ago,
had its day in court on Friday,
June 3.
Dennis Craig Erb Sr., 60, of 3167
Bellview Road, pleaded guilty in
Frederick County Circuit Court to
one count each of sodomy, a fam-
ily member to a child, and taking
indecent liberties with a minor
under the age of 15.
Just one week shy of the one
year anniversary of the crime and
Erb was sentenced to 15 years for
sodomy, with 10 suspended; two
years for taking indecent liberties,
all suspended; 10 years supervised
probation upon release by Retired
Judge Benjamin Kendrick.
A plea agreement was reached
in the case between the common-
wealth and Erbs attorney Howard
Manheimer.
Boy attacks father
A 17-year-old boy attacked his
father, and led authorities on a
manhunt, in a northern Frederick
County neighborhood Monday
afternoon.
Tuesday, the father was listed as
being in serious condition. Te
son is being detained until June
27, and stands charged with ag-
gravated malicious wounding
and misdemeanor domestic as-
sault and battery stemming from
the incident. Emergency workers
transported the father from the
scene, while ofcials searched for
more than an hour and a half for
the juvenile who was obtained in
the 100 block of Dogwood Drive.

WINCHESTER When asked
by authorities if anyone was in
her house, Jocelyn Marie Dove,
29, said no.
She pleaded guilty to the charge
in February, that she was in fact,
lying. Authorities from the Drug
Enforcement Administration
went to Doves house on Nov. 9
to look for her then-boyfriend
Glenn Irving Mason Jr., 25, who
was a fugitive wanted for failing
to register as a sex ofender.
According to a statement of
facts, when authorities knocked
on Doves door she failed to an-
swer for fve minutes. She also
informed authorities that no one
else was inside the home.
Mason was apprehended trying
to fee from a window in the home.
He is scheduled to have a change
of plea hearing on drug charges,
Friday in US district Court accord-
ing to online records.
Convicted sex ofender returning to jail
WINCHESTER Ste-
ven Allen Myers, 42,
Fairview Road, Gore,
was found to be in vio-
lation of the terms of
his supervised proba-
tion for a fourth time
Tursday, June 9.
Court records indi-
cate that Myers must
serve 19 years and 10 days for vio-
lating probation that was imposed
in one conviction of aggravated
sexual battery, and 15 years for a
second charge.
He will serve the remaining 34
years behind bars instead of the
sentence being suspended. Ini-
tially Myers was charged for his
part in a May 22, 1998 rape and
sodomy of a minor under the age
of 13.
Judge John Prosser sentenced
Myers in December 1999 to con-
secutive 20-year terms
for each of two counts
of aggravated sexual
battery. The judge
suspended all but fve
years of the 40-year
sentence, and ordered
six years of supervised
probation.
Tree times between
2005 and 2007 Myers admitted
to violating probation. Prosser
then mandated that Myers serve
11 months and 20 days in jail for
the violation admitted in August
2006.
Myers probation officer, Eric
Crout, said that Myers possessed
several pornographic movies,
directly violating his probation.
His attorney, Kathleen Griffin,
said that the videotapes belonged
to a previous occupant of his resi-
dence, not her client.
Two criminals banished from VA
Jefrey M. Dickerson, and Na-
quon D. Payne were ordered not
to return to Virginia by Judge John
E. Wetsel Jr., following their day in
court on charges of robbery in a
bait and switch case.
Te pair were accused of beating
up a co-defendant from another
robbery case after using a woman
to lure the victim out with the
promise of sex for money. Once
the victim came to meet the pros-
titute the pair jumped the victim
and stole his cell phone because
the female had taken the money.
Originally from New Jersey, the
pair were ordered not to return to
VA unless traveling through.

Five cheetah cubs were born May 28 to 6-year-
old Amani at the Smithsonian Conservation Biol-
ogy Institute in Front Royal. Amani is a dedicated
mother according to keepers, who have observed
her nursing and grooming the cubs. Tis litter is
particularly signifcant to the Association of Zoos
and Aquariums Species Survival Plan for cheetahs
because cheetah births in zoos across the country
have dwindled.
Te SSP matches animals across the country to
ensure genetic diversity in the population. Tis is
the only litter of cheetahs born this year in a North
American zoo. Cheetah experts recently met to
discuss dramatic management changes to bolster
the population, recommending cheetahs that are
genetically valuable and of reproductive age be
moved to one of nine breeding centerseight in
the United States and one in Canada. Tis will
give the animals more space and mating options,
increasing the odds of successful reproduction.
We are very excited that Amani had
such a large litter of cubs this time, said Adrienne
Crosier, SCBI cheetah biologist. Tese cubs are
very signifcant for the future of the population.
Te mortality rate for cheetah cubs in human
care is 20 percent during the frst six months,
compared to a mortality rate of up to 70 per-
cent in the wild population in east Africa.
In addition to the litters born at SCBI in
Front Royal, two litters of cheetahs have
been born at the Zoos Washington facility
since 2004. SCBI is one of fve centers par-
ticipating in research to boost the cheetah
population in human care as part of the
Conservation Centers for Species Survival,
also known as C2S2.
All fve centers collectively manage more
than 25,000 acres of land devoted to the
survival of threatened species with special
needs (including those requiring large land
areas, natural group sizes and minimal
public disturbance). All fve centers main-
tain a cheetah breeding facility as part of
their long-term commitment to cheetah
breeding and research. Te Front Royal
facility currently houses seven adult
cheetahs and plans to bring in up to fve
additional adults from other institutions
in North America this year.
Not only is SCBI continuing to make
strides in conserving cheetahs in the wild,
but we are
quickly emerging as a successful breed-
ing facility to improve the management
of the captive population, said Dave
Wildt, director of SCBIs Center for Spe-
cies Survival and head of C2S2s steering
committee. We aim to build a healthy,
genetically diverse and sustainable insur-
ance population so we can begin to manage this
species globally, ensuring that cheetahs survive
both in human care and in the wild for generations
to come. Working together in our C2S2 breeding-
center consortium is generating more information
faster because we have more access to more study
animals.
Tis is the second litter born to Amani. In De-
cember 2010 she gave birth to a male cub.
Cheetahs that give birth to only one cub, called a
singleton, often cannot produce enough milk to
keep the cub alive. Typically, females in the wild
will let a single cub die, after which they will enter
estrus and breed again. So scientists at SCBI gave
Amanis male cub to another female, Zazi, who had
a fve-day-old single female cub.
Tis strategy, known as cross-fostering, has
worked and Zazi is raising the two active and
healthy cubs.
Cheetahs, the fastest animals on land, are strug-
gling to outpace threats to their survival in the
wild. As the result of human confict, hunting and
habitat loss, there are only an estimated 7,500 to
10,000 cheetahs left in the wild.

Beware of Business
Credit Cards
The Credit Card Accountabil-
ity, Responsibility and Disclosure
(CARD) Act of 2009 was supposed
to protect consumers from changing
interest rates, unreasonable fees and
the insecurity from not knowing from
one month to the next what new fees
and penalties the credit-card compa-
nies would come up with. The Pew
Charitable Trusts, a branch of the non-
partisan, civic-minded Pew Research
Center, has released a Safe Credit
Cards Project report warning about
the ways credit-card companies are
getting around the rules.
To get around the restrictions of
the CARD Act, credit-card compa-
nies have simply changed the name
of the cards theyre issuing. Theyre
now called business or corporate
credit cards. Business credit cards
were never intended to be covered by
the act, so none of the new rules apply.
Far too many consumers have been
taken in, assuming theyre protected
when theyre not. Getting one of these
cards isnt hard: Business or commer-
cial cards are being promoted not only
to businesses and corporations, but
to consumers, just as the regular con-
sumer cards were.
According to the Pew report, some
10 million offers for business credit
cards are sent out every month.
Here are some comparisons, with
Protected indicating the coverage of
personal credit cards under the Act.
Protected: Terms cannot change dur-
ing the first year, and 45 days notice
must be given before terms change.
Business: Terms can change at any
time.
Protected: Penalty interest rates can-
not be applied to existing balances.
Business: Penalty interest rates
can be applied at any time, effective
immediately, with no notice, to any
balance.
Protected: Penalty fees must be rea-
sonable, and cannot exceed the viola-
tion itself.
Business: Penalty fees are unre-
stricted.
Protected: Payments over the mini-
mum must be applied to the highest
rate balance first.
Business: Payment may be applied
to lowest rate balances, which lets
high-rate balances accrue interest.
If you receive a mailing or applica-
tion offering one of these credit cards,
read the fine print twice. Go online
a pull up a copy of the CARD Act and
compare item for item what your new
card would offer versus the protec-
tions of regular cards.
Remember: With business credit
cards, your interest rate could change
overnight, and you cant do a thing
about it except pay the debt.

It was philosopher, historian, mathemati-
cian and Nobel Prize winner Bertrand Rus-
sell who made the following sage observa-
tion: In all affairs its a healthy thing now
and then to hang a question mark on the
things you have long taken for granted.
***
The giant Pacific octopus, the largest
octopus in the world, is a prolific breeder.
Extremely prolific. The female lays ap-
proximately 56,000 eggs, all at once. And
since, according to experts, the population
is stable, of those 56,000 eggs, only two sur-
vive to reproduce.
***
It was Franklin Pierce, the 14th president
of the United States, who ordered the
White Houses first bathtub in the 1850s.
***
Harry Houdini is best known as a magi-
cian and an escape artist, but he also per-
formed amazing stunts. In the early days
of aviation, he flew in an airplane to an
altitude of 3,000 feet, then jumped off the
plane onto another one -- while wearing
handcuffs.
***
A recent study conducted by research-
ers at a university in Sweden found that if
a person has to commute longer than 45
minutes to work, he or she is 40 percent
more likely to get divorced.
***
There are more languages and dialects
spoken in India than in any other coun-
try in the world: in excess of 1,600 at last
count.

If youre planning a trip to Marrakesh,
Morocco, be sure to visit the Koutoubiya
minaret. In 1195 Sultan Yakub al Mansur
commanded that the minaret be built in
thanksgiving for a military victory, and
the tower is lovely. The structures unique
attribute, however, is not visible -- its ol-
factory. When the minaret was being built,
960 sacks of musk were mixed in with the
mortar, and the odor can still be detected
today.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) You
feel ready to face up to a major change,
although it might involve some risks.
A once-dubious family member comes
around and offers support and encour-
agement.
TAURUS (April 20 to May 20)
Move forward with your plans, despite
discouraging words from those who
underestimate the Bovines strong
will. Your keen instincts will guide
you well.
GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) A
misunderstanding is easily cleared up.
Then go ahead and enjoy some fun and
games this week. A Libra might have
ideas that merit serious consideration
for the future.
CANCER (June 21 to July 22) You
might feel as if youre in an emotional
pressure cooker, but the situation is
about to change in your favor. Take
time out for some well-earned fun.
LEO (July 23 to August 22) A shift
in your workplace responsibilities cre-
ates resentment among some co-work-
ers. Deal with it before it becomes a
threat to your success on the job.
VIRGO (August 23 to September
22) Expect some surprises in what
you thought was one of your typically
well-planned schedules. Deal with
them, and then enjoy some lightheart-
ed entertainment.
LIBRA (September 23 to October
22) Be careful: What appears to be a
solid financial opportunity might have
some hidden risks attached. A hazy
personal matter needs to be cleared
up.
SCORPIO (October 23 to Novem-
ber 21) Its a good time to strengthen
ties with family and friends. You might
feel unsure about a recent workplace
decision, but time will prove you did
the right thing.
SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to
December 21) Just when you thought
your relationship was comfortable
and even predictable, your partner or
spouse could spring a potentially life-
changing surprise on you.
CAPRICORN (December 22 to
January 19) Your usually generous
self is overshadowed by your equally
strong suspicious nature. You might
be judging things too harshly. Keep an
open mind.
AQUARIUS (January 20 to Febru-
ary 18) Love and romance dominate
the week. Married Aquarians enjoy
domestic harmony, while singles
could soon be welcoming overtures
from loving Leos.
PISCES (February 19 to March 20)

On June 30, 1859, Jean-Francois
Gravelet, a Frenchman known profes-
sionally as Emile Blondin, becomes
the first daredevil to walk across
Niagara Falls on a tightrope. Wearing
pink tights and a yellow tunic, Blondin
crossed a cable about 2 inches in diam-
eter and 1,100-feet long with only a
balancing pole to protect him from
plunging into the dangerous rapids
160 feet below.
On June 28, 1862, Confederate
raiders make a daring capture of a
commercial vessel on Chesapeake
Bay. Conspirators boarded the St.
Nicholas as paying passengers with
Richard Thomas Zarvona, a former
student at West Point, disguised as a
flirtatious Frenchwoman.
On July 3, 1908, author Mary Fran-
ces Kennedy Fisher is born in Albion,
Mich. In 1937, her first book, Serve It
Forth, was published. She produced
nine more books on food, including
How to Cook a Wolf (1942) and
The Gastronomic Me (1943).
On July 1, 1951, Cleveland Indians
ace Bob Feller pitches the third no-hit
game of his career to lead the Indians
over the Detroit Tigers 2-1. This made
him the first modern pitcher ever to
throw three no-hitters.
On June 29, 1967, blond-bomb-
shell actress Jayne Mansfield is killed
instantly when the car in which she is
riding strikes the rear of a trailer truck
on I-90 east of New Orleans. The cars
driver likely couldnt see the truck due
to a nearby machine emitting a thick
white fog used to spray mosquitoes.
On July 2, 1977, Hollywood com-
poser Bill Conti scores a No. 1 pop
hit with the single Gonna Fly Now
(Theme From Rocky). Contis career
eventually included an Academy
Award for Best Original Score for the
1983 film The Right Stuff.
On June 27, 1985, after 59 years,
the iconic Route 66 between Chicago
and Los Angeles enters the realm of
history when the American Associa-
tion of State Highway and Transporta-
tion Officials decertifies the road and
votes to remove all its highway signs.
Most of Route 66 followed a path
forged through the wilderness in 1857
by U.S. Navy Lt. Edward Beale at the
head of a caravan of camels.

It was American cartoonist,
humorist and journalist Kin Hubbard
who made the following sage obser-
vation: Theres no secret about suc-
cess. Did you ever know a successful
man who didnt tell you about it?
Next time youre in Iowa, you
might want to stop by the rural town
of Riverside, which touts itself as the
future birthplace of Captain James T.
Kirk. Yep, the future birthplace. It
seems that Star Trek creator Gene
Roddenberry asserted that the charac-
ter of James Tiberius Kirk was born in
Iowa, but he didnt specify exactly
where. In 1985, the Riverside City
Council voted to declare their town
the future birthplace of the character,
later writing to Roddenberry and
receiving his approval. In honor of its
newfound claim to fame, the city
began hosting an annual Trek Fest,
complete with a Spockapalooza battle
of the bands.
If you enjoy cooking, you might
have heard of some of the following
cookbooks: Kill It and Grill It, The
Joy of Pickling, Full of Beans,
The Stinking Cookbook and I
Cant Believe Its Not Meat! Then
again, maybe not.
The term bric-a-brac, usually
used to refer to a collection of tawdry
trinkets, comes from the French,
where its original meaning was at
random.
Most parents of small children
know that trampolines can be danger-
ous, and they are. Every year, nearly
100,000 people receive emergency-
room treatment for injuries sustained
while using trampolines. Those
injuries are hardly ever fatal, though.
Pools, on the other hand, are far more
deadly; more than 1,000 people in the
United States die in swimming pools
annually.
***
Thought for the Day: If living con-
ditions dont stop improving in this
country, were going to run out of
humble beginnings for our great men.

Gramps vs. the Brat
Let us consider the strange
case of Richard Childress and Kyle
Busch.
Childress is the last vestige --
full-time, anyway -- of old school
in NASCAR team ownership. He
and Dale Earnhardt made a perfect
match. Childress interacted as easily
with Bud Moore and Junior Johnson
as he now does with Rick Hendrick
and Roger Penske. Childresss suc-
cess is grounded in the way that he
manages to bridge the generations.
Te younger Busch brother is
Toroughly Modern Kyle. He is
wondrously talented and self-cen-
tered. Sometimes people insist on
comparing him to Earnhardt, which
is akin to comparing Tim Linecum
to Bob Gibson. If Kyle Busch is his
generations Dale Earnhardt, his
generation has really changed.
Tough I rather like both men,
they obviously do not care for each
other.
I like Childress for the qualities
described above. Tis former racer,
who built his empire by hand, is
about as adept as dealing with the
media as anyone Ive encountered.
He has an instinctive knack for han-
dling the various issues that con-
front his team.
I like Kyle Busch because he isnt
a phony. I may disagree with him. In
fact, at times, I may consider him a
brat. But he isnt afraid to be him-
self, and has the strength of con-
viction not to worry unduly about
what others think. He adds spice
to NASCAR. Te sport needs a bad
boy. Te NFL needs the Oakland
Raiders (and some even remember
them).
As sensible as Childress is, and
as closely watched as Kyle Busch is,
somehow things went crazy after
the Camping World Truck Series
race in Kansas. Buschs Toyota had
traded licks with a Childress Chevy,
one driven by Joey Coulter, and then
Busch had roughed up the kid a bit
during the cool-down lap. Busch
had roughed up another Childress
Chevy, the one assigned to Buschs
foil Kevin Harvick, after a Sprint
Cup race at Darlington.
Te latter incident apparently led
the 65-year-old Childress to mut-
ter, or think, something along the
lines of enough is enough, prob-
ably with at least one epithet added.
Apparently, the resulting incident
wasnt caught on tape, so it may be
something like the dime novels of
the Old West. Tough what hap-
pened may be exaggerated, it can
reliably be reported that Childress,
in some form, attacked Busch.
Childress, being Childress, ap-
parently handled the situation that
arose after the situation -- that being
his closed-door meeting with NAS-
CAR ofcials -- with characteristic
aplomb, having had time to retrieve
his right mind. He paid a fne, and
they put him on probation.
Probation. Let me defne it for
the umpteenth time. In NASCAR,
its a serious-sounding word that
means nothing. Heres one more
shred of evidence.
Long before handing down the
slap to Childresss wrist, NASCAR
absolved Busch of blame. On race
morning at Kansas Speedway, word
spread that Buschs actions would
not afect his probation.
How can this be so?
Busch was on probation for
his role in an incident in which he
bumped another car after the Dar-
lington race. How could bumping
another, well, truck, after a Kansas
race not afect his probation?
Im not after Kyle Busch. I fgure
hes got enough of a headache with
M&Ms, one of his sponsors (do they
melt in your mouth, or do you get
belted in the mouth?), without hav-
ing another meaningless level of
probation thrown in.
But the whole reaction makes
NASCAR look, yet again, like a
mountain.
A mountain of Jell-O.

Biffle Is Racing
as Hard as He Can
This hasnt been the season Greg
Biffle expected, though he certainly
has time to pick up the pieces.
The 39-year-old Biffle didnt 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.
For now, Biffles first priority is
making the Chase, but that doesnt
mean hes going to back off.
Were certainly not racing conserv-
atively, he said. Were racing to win,
but were not going to do anything stu-
pid.
We know we have to stay in (the top
12 in order to qualify for the Chase).
Its tight ... and were doing all we can
do.
Roush Fenway Racing put Biffle in
what was then still the Winston Cup
Series back in 2003. He finished sec-
ond 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 posi-
tions of Biffle and Kenseth are hardly
secure as the regular season enters its
final four races.
Were just going to have to be bet-
ter, said Biffle. We know that. Were
nervous about getting in (the Chase),
and anything can happen. ... There are
some races were concerned about
leading up to the cutoff (end of the reg-
ular season), and we know were on
the bubble, so its important to have
good finishes right now.
Biffle, from Vancouver, Wash., is
one of only two drivers to have won
championships in both the Nation-
wide and Camping World Truck
series. (Johnny Benson is the other.)
Biffle also was rookie of the year in
both series. He came up through
NASCARs developmental system,
winning track championships early in
his career at Tri-City Raceway in West
Richland, Wash., and Portland (Ore.)
Speedway.
Really, were working as hard as we
can every week to bring the best race
cars we can to the track, said Biffle.
Its important that we have the best
possible equipment right now.
Were racing as hard as we can.
Were not taking big risks, but, at the
same time, were racing for the win.
