Nearly 200 Racers Pay Tribute To Fellow Racer In
The Chad Wilcox Memorial Bike / Sled Shootout
TIOGA CENTER - On
Saturday, Aug. 20, 181
racers, their families, friends
and fans gathered at Skyview
Drags to honor the late Chad
Wilcox. Wilcox, formerly of
Brookfield, N.Y., was 24years of age when he passed
away on July 4, 2010 as the
result of a tragic snowmobile
drag racing accident at
another track.
Wilcox had raced his
snowmobile at Skyview
Drags in the Bike/Sled class
and had several wins under
his belt at Skyview. He is
survived by his parents, Jim
and Lynnette Wilcox and
his brothers Matthew and
Bradley (Brynley) Wilcox.
He left behind his loving
fiancée Joanna Dote, her
parents Mike and Connie
Dote and her sister Camie
Manner. Wilcox was a
member of the Dote Racing
team, and the Dote family
sponsored the Memorial
event at the track this past
weekend.
The day started off with
the Precision Crankworks
Junior Dragster class. Once
the fog cleared off Rumble
Ridge, 15 young racers
took to the field looking to
continue their battle for the
points lead and to try and
take home the $200 savings
bond and trophy. In the
finals it was Ron Klein from
Livingston Manor, N.Y.,
who is currently second
in the points standings,
against Haley Teed from
Friendsville, Pa. who is
currently third in the points
standings.
Teed had the reaction
time advantage when she
cut a .6069 light to Klein’s
.6289 reaction time. Teed
ran an 8.8319 Elapsed Time
(ET) on her 8.76 dial while
Klein ran a 9.0450 ET on
his 9.01 dial to take the win.
Randi Teed, who is currently
leading the points, and Jared
Baker from Newfield, N.Y.,
who is currently fourth in the
points, were semi-finalists.
After the Junior Dragster
class completed their racing,
a memorial service for Chad
Wilcox was conducted by
the Reverend Kathy Kiekel
at the starting line. Hundreds
of racers, family, friends and
fans gathered in the staging
lanes and lined the fence to
pay honor to Wilcox.
The race sled of Connie
Dote, from Brookfield, N.Y.
was brought out onto the
track by Dote and Wilcox’s
father, Jim Wilcox. After the
service, the racers gave Jim
Wilcox a rousing send off
as he powered the Dote sled
down the right lane to make
one last race in his son’s
memory.
Just prior to the start of
the Chad Wilcox Bike/Sled
Shootout, the Dote Family,
who sponsored this event,
announced that the winner’s
purse would be increased
from $2,000 to $3,000 and
that the runner-up prize
would be increased from
$800 to $1,300.
Thirty-one racers drove
their motorcycles and sleds
onto the track looking to
take home the top prize
money, which was one of
the largest purses offered
to Bike/Sled racers. In the
finals, Don Becker had the
starting line advantage with
a .5419 reaction time to
Herb Bingel’s .5891 reaction
time. Bingel broke out at
the finish line by running a
too fast 6.8178 ET on his
6.84 dial while Becker was
stellar with his 6.3101 ET
on his 6.30 dial to take the
win. Dennis Boston out of
Canostota, N.Y. was the
semi-finalist.
In the Chad Wilcox Sweet
16 Pro Tree Shootout,
the fastest 16 sleds and
motorcycles qualified for the
bracket race to vie for the top
money prizes. The winner
would take home $500 and
the runner-up $200. The
finals saw David Vonarx cut
a .5440 light against Matt
Luke’s slightly better .5310
reaction time. Vonarx would
run a 6.6040 ET on his 6.63
dial while Luke, who towed
in from Cicero, N.Y. would
run a 6.0300 on his 5.95 dial
to take the win. Shawn Fetter
was the semi-finalist.
In the Super Pro class,
22 racers brought their fast
dragsters, door slammers,
altereds and roadsters to
the track to try and win the
$900 prize money. In the
finals, Aaron Hacker from
Bainbridge, N.Y. earned his
first win of the season when
he defeated 2008 and 2009
Track Champion Don Kiekel
from Binghamton, N.Y.
Hacker had a .5049
reaction time (.5000 is
perfect) to Kiekel’s .5221
reaction. Hacker’s dragster
ran a 5.204 ET on his 5.18
dial while Kiekel and his
dragster broke out running
a 5.2869 ET on a 5.31 dial.
Hacker is the 2010 Super Pro
Rookie of the Year. Kiekel is
now tied with his wife Kathy
for the point’s lead. Crystal
Curpier from Oneonta, N.Y.
and Tom Clark were semifinalists.
In the Pro class, 42 racers
staged their modified cars
looking to take home the $900
top prize. In the end, it was
4-time defending Track
Champion Shane Garinger
from New Albany, Pa, who
drove his Dart Swinger into
the finals to face rookie racer
Paul Scribani from Delhi,
N.Y.
Garinger had a .5249
reaction time to Scribani’s
slightly
slower
.5699
reaction time. Garinger ran
a 6.896 ET on his 6.83 dial,
while Scribani’s Camaro
ran a 6.6478 ET on his
6.61 dial to take home his
very first win! Jeff Gallick
from Athens, Pa. and Jim
Erecitano from Vestal, N.Y.
were semi-finalists.
The
Scribani
family
dedicated this win to their
youngest
son/brother
Andrew, who passed away in
2008 as the result of a tragic
motorcycle accident. “Never
forgotten; Forever in our
hearts until we are together
once again.”
In the Bike/Sled class,
racers bring their street bikes,
drag bikes and snowmobiles
to compete for the $200 top
prize. In the final round,
current point’s leader Rob
Withers from Blodgett Mills,
N.Y. ran dead on his number,
running an 8.7630 ET on
his 8.76 dial. Unfortunately
for Withers, he was dead
late on the tree and Jamie
Hitchcock, who had a great
.5210 reaction time and ran
a 6.9280 ET on his 6.78
dial took the win light. Fred
Jacobs was the semi-finalist.
The Street Money class
had 18 racers entered to win
the $200 top prize. The finals
pitted Kenneth Roberts from
Ulster, Pa. and his USS
Nemisis Chrysler Cordoba
against Ken Bacon from
Elmira, N.Y.
With both racers having
very close reaction times, it
would come down to who
ran closer to his dial. Bacon
ran an 8.8058 ET on his
8.75 dial while Roberts ran
a 9.5471 ET on his 9.53 dial
to take the win light for the
first time this season. Joe
Santucci from Elmira, N.Y.
and Shanon Fenton from
Laceyville, Pa. were semifinalists.
In the Street Trophy
class, six racers looked to
take home the trophy and
bragging rights for the week.
The finals saw Joe Santucci
against Charlie Fulmer.
Santucci had the advantage
right off the line with a .5351
reaction time. Fulmer ran an
8.8211 ET on his 8.75 dial
while Santucci ran an 8.8057
on his 8.72 dial to take the
win.
In the Teen Championship
Racing class, Brandon
Searcy from Waverly, N.Y.
had a stellar .5540 reaction
time against current point’s
leader Teresa Kurtz out of
Newark Valley, N.Y.
With a hole shot advantage,
Searcy only had to drive the
finish line against Kurtz to
take the win. Kurtz’s Camaro
broke out by running a
10.6329 on her 10.64 dial
while Searcy also broke out
when his Silverado ran an
11.3700 on his 11.38 dial. In
a double break out, the driver
who breaks out by the least
amount is the winner and
that meant that Kurtz saw
her win light come on for her
sixth win of the season.
The TCR class is currently
seeking a sponsor to help
grow the class. The TCR
class is for 13 to 17-year
old racers who drive their
family street legal cars with
a licensed parent or guardian
in the passenger’s seat with
them.
With nine classes of racing
run off without a hitch on
Saturday, track director
Amy Culver would like to
thank the Skyview crew for
all of their hard work and
dedication.
“A special thank you goes
out to the Dote family for all
of their support of the track
and for their love of the
sport of Drag Racing,” said
Culver. “And a very special
thank you to Super Pro racer
Kathy Kiekel, an ordained
minister who provided a
beautiful memorial service
for Chad Wilcox.”
Next up for Skyview
Drags is a regular Test &
Tune on Friday, Aug. 26
and then a non-points race.

veteran to assist, you’ll need
to qualify (and pay for) a
surety bond equal to a veteran’s current and estimated
future benefits. You’ll be
responsible for keeping his
or her bills paid on time,
opening a joint account in
your names and completing frequent documents to
describe how you’ve spent
each penny of the veteran’s
money.
If you’re interested in at
least thinking about doing
this to help out a fellow
veteran, go online to www.
vba.va.gov/bln/21/Fiduciary/index.htm. Then hunt
for “Fiduciary Forms Program Guide.” This reference describes what goes
in each and every box on
every form that a fiduciary
fills out.
Fiduciaries are asked to
serve for free, but there is
a small stipend that can be
earned — a percentage of
the veteran’s benefit.

Fiduciary Scam
I’m trying to wrap my mind
around this one: Another
fiduciary scam has been
uncovered. The two men who
plead guilty are the fiduciary
and a former Department of
Veterans Affairs Field Examiner who had been appointed
by the VA.
Over nine years, beginning
in 1999, the two managed to
steal nearly $900,000 from
10 disabled veterans. As a
fiduciary, the first man was
responsible for the financial
affairs of those veterans.
The second was the overseer
of fiduciaries in his area.
Are you a member of a service organization, perhaps
the American Legion or
Veterans of Foreign Wars?
Do you serve in an elected
capacity, perhaps as Adjutant or Finance Officer? Can
you pay bills on time? Are
you good with math? Would
you consider signing up to
be a fiduciary in your area?
It won’t be easy, I’ll tell
you right up front. It’s not
even easy for relatives to be
appointed fiduciaries for a
loved one’s estate. You’ll
no doubt be run through the
wringer when you apply.

Skyjack: The Hunt for
D.B. Cooper
by Geoffrey Gray
(Crown, $25)
Reviewed by Larry Cox
The D.B. Cooper caper is
one of the most baffling mysteries in American history.
A man calling himself
D.B. Cooper purchased a
$20 one-way ticket from
Portland, Ore., to Seattle in
November 1971. Shortly
after takeoff, he settled back
in Seat 18C, lit a Raleigh
cigarette and passed a note
to the stewardess that he had
a bomb in his briefcase. He
showed the flight attendant
a tangle of wires and what
could have been a bomb,
then demanded $200,000
and several parachutes.
Later, the man leaped from
the jet with more than 20
pounds of cash strapped to
his body and was never seen
again —- alive or dead.
D.B. Cooper has become the
stuff of folklore. Bars throughout the Pacific Northwest
mark the anniversary with
lookalike contests, and treasure hunters scour the woods
in Washington in attempts to
find some of the elusive cash
or an important clue.
Seasoned crime writer
Geoffrey Gray has written
a riveting account of the
case. Based on extensive
interviews, an examination
of public records and even
the confidential FBI file on
Cooper, Gray details for the
first time what actually happened in the air on that cold
November night and the epic
manhunt that followed.
This is a wonderfully
crafted story by a journalist who surprised himself
when he discovered he had
become obsessed to unmask
the identity of D.B. Cooper. As he tracks down new
leads and reviews previous
information, several possible suspects emerge.
This was a crime that
occurred in another America, when not only was
there smoking on domestic
flights, but each seat had a
little built-in ashtray, flight
attendants were called stewardesses, flights were possible for just a few bucks and
security was lax at best.
This is an exceptional
piece of true-crime reporting featuring a narrative that
is as gripping as an edge-ofyour-seat suspense novel.

Mini Eggplant
Pizzas
One of the joys of raising
kids is making new friends
with others who also are
raising kids. When my three
were preschoolers, I regularly met up with neighborhood
moms at the bus stop in the
morning or for ballgames at
the park and story time at the
library. As the kids grew, so
did the friendships.
Six of us still make a point
of getting together throughout the seasons to celebrate
our birthdays. One recent
gathering was particularly
memorable.
Instead of meeting at a restaurant, we donned aprons
in one of our kitchens and
huddled around the center
island for a cooking lesson
taught by neighbor Cristina
Garrasi Mazzei, an energetic
mom from Italy.
“To an American eye,
Italy might seem the same,
with pasta and pizza wherever you go,” she began.
“But for food lovers, it’s a
country waiting to be discovered! Each region has its
unique flavors and cooking
techniques. For example,
the taste of a simple ricotta
cheese can vary from place
to place,” she said.
As she shared her passion
for Italian food, she emphasized that using fresh, seasonal ingredients is key to
tasty meals. That’s when
she showed us how to transform eggplant into a light
side dish called Pizzette di
melanzane, common in the
Compania region, where she
is from.
Like a pizza minus the
crust, these mini eggplant
pizzas are tasty and versatile.
Now that eggplants are plentiful in our markets, find Italy
and the Compania region on a
map in your home, and have
fun preparing this easy and
authentic Italian recipe with
your kids.
MINI EGGPLANT
PIZZAS (PIZZETTE
DE MELANZANE)
1
large eggplant,
about 1 pound
3/4 cup tomato puree
4 cloves fresh garlic,
chopped
Salt to taste
Dried oregano, to
taste
1 cup coarsely shredded mozzarella
cheese, or a 4-ounce
bag
Parmigiano
Reggiano (optional)
1. Preheat oven to 400 F.
2. An adult should cut the
eggplant into 1/2-inch-thick
rounds. Arrange them on a
lightly oiled baking sheet.
3. Like constructing mini
pizzas, let kids spoon the
tomato puree over each
round. Scatter the garlic and
oregano, sprinkle salt to taste
and top with mozzarella.
Add Parmigiano Reggiano,
if you wish.
4. Bake rounds in the oven
for 25 minutes or until mozzarella has melted completely and bubbles.
5. Serve immediately as a
light side dish with a summer pasta salad and other
fresh vegetables. Makes 810 mini pizzas.
As an alternative, Cristina
suggests serving the mini
pizzas cold in a sandwich.
Note: If your child is like
her young daughter, omit the
garlic until he or she develops a taste for it.

Old-Fashioned Ice Cream
With a Modern Twist
Making ice cream at home
is an old-fashioned way to
have a cool summer treat.
You can make ice cream
at home without a machine
by using a few simple techniques.
Freezing the custard-based
ice-cream recipe below (or
anything that goes from a
liquid to a solid form) means
the formation of hard ice
crystals. A machine churns
the ice-cream mixture constantly, breaking up the crystals. If you’re not using a
machine, you can break up
the ice crystals by using a
spatula, whisk or hand-held
mixer to create a smooth,
creamy dessert.
The trick to avoiding ice
crystals is to use a large
amount of sugar. Sugar lowers the freezing point of the
ice-cream mixture so that
large crystals are unable to
form.
Always use cooked or
pasteurized eggs or an egg
substitute in your ice cream
to avoid any foodborne illness (food poisoning). If
using a recipe with eggs,
the base should be heated to
an internal temperature of
160 degrees Fahrenheit and
then cooled. This temperature will kill any salmonella,
if present.
Another tip to making
smooth, creamy ice cream is
to make sure everything you
use is cold. After you make
the ice-cream mixture, cover
it and allow to chill overnight in the refrigerator.
When you’re ready to
freeze the mixture, place it
into a metal container that
cups heavy cream
(14 ounce) cans
Eagle Brand
Sweetened Condensed
Milk
6 tablespoons butter,
melted
3 tablespoons vanilla
extract
1. Using a large bowl, whip
heavy cream to stiff peaks
and set aside. Using another bowl, whisk sweetened
condensed milk, butter and
vanilla together until wellcombined. Gently fold in the
whipped cream.
2. Place the bowl of icecream mixture into another
large bowl filled with ice
water. Let it set in the cold
water until the mixture is

has been wrapped tightly
in a plastic bag and placed
in the freezer for several
hours. This will cut down
on freezing time. Pouring
the ice-cream mixture into a
shallow container with lots
of surface area (which has
been wrapped tightly in a
plastic bag and placed in the
freezer for hours) is another
way to get it to freeze rapidly. The only downside of
this homemade mixture (if
you want to call it that) is
that this ice cream needs to
be eaten within a week after
it’s made for best quality.
cold, or cover the ice-cream
mixture with Saran or plastic
wrap and place it in the refrigerator to chill overnight.
3. Proceed with the recipe
below to freeze the ice cream,
or use the variations to create
other flavors. Makes 1/2 gallon of ice cream.
Variations:
Cinnamon Bun Ice Cream
Add in 1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon to the recipe above
and decrease the vanilla
extract from 1 1/2 tablespoons to 1/2 teaspoon and
proceed with the ice-cream
preparation recipe below.
Chocolate Chip Ice Cream
Mix 1 1/2 cups of chocolate chips into the vanilla
ice-cream recipe above and
decrease the vanilla extract
from 1 1/2 tablespoons to 1/2
teaspoon and proceed with
the ice-cream
preparation recipe below.
Choco-Peanut Butter Chip
Ice Cream
Add in the 1/2 cup Nutella
Hazelnut Spread and 1 cup
peanut butter chips to the
vanilla ice-cream recipe
above. Decrease the vanilla
extract from 1 1/2 tablespoons to 1/2 teaspoon and
proceed with the ice-cream
preparation recipe below.
To Prepare the Ice Cream:
1. Stir the chilled ice-cream
mixture and then pour it into
a 4-quart container (preferably a chilled metal or a shallow plastic container) or two
2-quart containers. Cover
with plastic or Saran wrap.
2. After 45 minutes, check
the mixture to see if it is
freezing near the edges.
Remove it from the freezer
and stir vigorously with a
hand-held mixer, stick blender, spatula or whisk to break
up any frozen sections and
to make the mixture smooth.
Cover and return ice cream
to freezer.
3. Keep checking every
30 minutes to see if the ice
cream is freezing near the
edges. Stir vigorously (by
hand with a spatula or whisk,
or with the electric mixer or
stick blender). It will likely
take 3 to 4 hours to be frozen
and ready to serve. The ice
cream will be good for one
week.

Ask for Your
Discount
Sometimes the key to getting a senior discount is just
getting up the nerve to ask
for one. If we get in the habit of asking for a discount
every single time we spend
money, think how much we
could save.
Someone on the Internet
has compiled a long list of
stores that give discounts to
seniors. You can find that
list by going to Google.
com and searching for
“106 Stores with Senior
Discounts.” There’s even a
handy .PDF version you can
print out to make sure you
don’t miss anything! Categories include Restaurants,
Retail and Apparel, Grocery, Travel, Activities and
Entertainment, Cell Phones
and Miscellaneous.
Not only is the amount
of the discount noted
(either the percentage of
the total purchase or a dollar amount), but the day of
the week or date during the
month, as well as the age it
applies to. Some consider
us seniors at the age of 50,
while others go with age 55,
62 or 65.
If you’re a member of
AARP, there are dozens of
discounts built right into the
membership. On the Web
site [www.aarp.org] click
on Member Benefits, then
Discounts. To name just
two of the new discounts,
Walgreens offers savings
if you show your card, and
Michaels has discounts on
Tuesdays. There are 15,000
restaurant locations that
offer discounts, and travel
discounts can be found on
car rentals, hotels, cruises
and tours.
Seniors Discounts [www.
seniordiscounts.com] has
more than 150,000 businesses listed that give discounts to seniors. There is
a fee, however, either $7.95
or $12.95 per year, depending on the level of services
you want.
Start
carrying
your
AARP card in your pocket!
Remember to use the plastic
one with the magnetic strip
and bar code on the back.

A Little Personal
Space, Please
DEAR PAW’S CORNER: I read a recent column of yours where an
owner said her cat tended
to scratch and nip at her
without warning. You said
that the cat might have
some socialization problems due to being a shelter
pet, or might be experiencing some stress. Could
I add that cats that are
perfecwtly “normal” and
loving also will scratch or
nip if they are surprised or
feel otherwise threatened.
It’s natural. — Cat Fan in
Chicago
DEAR CAT FAN: You’re
right; many cats will turn
and scratch or nip when
surprised. Others will bat or
scratch at strangers or even
family members who reach
out to them. Why? Well, like
humans, cats have varying
levels of “personal space,”
so to speak. And because
they’re fiercely independent, many have specific
likes and dislikes — opinions that can vary from
family member to family
member.
It’s important to approach
a cat, or any animal, with
respect. Never sneak up
behind or grab at a cat, and
don’t yell or make loud noises. Approach from an angle
where it can see you clearly,
and speak in a calm, reassuring voice. Hold out your
hand for inspection, and let
the cat come to you.
It’s possible to figure out
the most important signals
just from this move. If it
sniffs at your hand, rubs
its whiskers against it and
backs away, the cat’s not
interested in being picked
up or petted at the moment.
If it approaches you after
rubbing its whiskers against
your hand, you’re welcome
to pet it. If it allows you to
gently pick it up and doesn’t
struggle, great. If it jumps
into your lap, you belong to
it (just kidding — sort of!).

Kitchen Aprons
Q:
I have collected
more than 300
vintage aprons during
the past decade or so and
would now like to sell the
entire collection, not parting it out. What do you
suggest I do? — Dianne,
Sun City, Ariz.
One of the foremost
authorities
of older kitchen aprons is
EllynAnne Geisel, author
of “The Apron Book,” published by Andrews McMeel.
Recently, I spent an enjoyable afternoon visiting with
her in my Arizona home.
She is knowledgeable and
has assured me she will help
you. Her contact information is c/o Apron Memories,
605 West 17th St., Pueblo,
CO 81003; ellynanne@
apronmemories.com, and
(719) 545-5704. A second
book, “The Kitchen Linens
Book: Using, Sharing and
Cherishing the Fabrics of
Our Daily Lives,” also is
highly recommended and
available from Andrews
McMeel.

I have several
Reikes bears and
can’t seem to find books
at the library that can give
me information about
current values. They all
have wooden faces and
are numbered. Three that
I have include Sebastian,
Lionel and Christopher.
I do not have the original
boxes. — Jim, Sun City
West, Ariz.
It has been more
than a century since
the first Teddy bears were
A:

A:
manufactured in the United
States. Most of the earliest
ones had humps on their
backs, elongated muzzles
and jointed limbs. Named
in honor of Theodore Roosevelt and his much publicized bear hunts in the
American West, the toy
bears quickly became one
of this country’s favorite
toys. Your bears are from
a much later period, circa
1980s, and — according to
several collectors I contacted — probably valued in the
$50 to $75 range. As with
most collectibles, the value
of an item is based on rarity, condition and demand.
I found your Sebastian bear
listed on eBay for $55.

I have a book that
was
published
during the late 1920s or
early ‘30s entitled “The
Child and His World.” Is
it valuable? — George,
Albuquerque, N.M.
“The Child and
His World” was
a multi-volume set published by Midland Press
in its New Human Interest
Library series. Most volumes in this set sell in the
$15 to $25 range, depending on condition.

• On Sept. 16, 1620, the
Mayflower sails from Plymouth, England, bound for the
New World with 102 passengers. The ship was headed
for Virginia, but stormy
weather and navigational
errors forced the Mayflower
off course. On Nov. 21, the
“Pilgrims” arrived in Massachusetts.
• On Sept. 15, 1916, during the Battle of the Somme,
the British launch a major
offensive against the Germans, employing tanks for
the first time. Although slow,
the tanks showed promise
and hundreds more were
ordered.
• On Sept. 17, 1923, a fire
threatens the University of
California at Berkeley, kills
two people and causes $10
million in damages. Homeowners fought the flames
with garden hoses and buckets, and students pitched in,
as the fire came right to the
campus gates.
• On Sept. 13, 1936, 17year-old Cleveland Indians
pitching ace “Rapid” Robert
Feller strikes out 17 batters in
a game, setting a new American League record. Feller
allowed just two hits to help
his team to a 5-2 victory over
the Philadelphia A’s.
• On Sept. 12, 1940, a col-
lection of 600 prehistoric
cave paintings and 1,500
engravings are discovered
in a grotto near Montignac, France. The 5,000- to
17,000-year-old paintings
consisted mostly of animal
representations. The Lascaux grotto’s main cavern
is 66 feet wide and 16 feet
high.
• On Sept. 14, 1964, writer
John Steinbeck is presented
the U.S. Medal of Freedom. Steinbeck had already
received numerous honors
and awards for his writing,
including the 1962 Nobel
Prize, and the 1939 Pulitzer
Prize for “The Grapes of
Wrath.” He also wrote “Tortilla Flat,” “East of Eden”
and the novella “Of Mice
and Men.”
• On Sept. 18, 1987, cesium-137 is removed from an
abandoned cancer-therapy
machine in Brazil. Junkyard
workers, fascinated by the
glowing blue stone inside
and completely unaware
of its dangers, distributed
pieces to friends, relatives
and neighbors. Hundreds
of people were eventually
poisoned by radiation from
the substance, and 40 contaminated homes had to be
demolished.
• To fix a hole in drywall
that requires a healthy helping of joint compound, cut a
piece of screen slightly bigger than the hole and tack it
to the inside of the drywall.
You also can wad up a piece
of aluminum foil and shove
it in the hole, pressing it in
a bit to create a recess for
the compound. The foil will
keep the compound at the
site of the hole, allowing
it to set up instead of fall
down.
• “I recently did a little
work on my car, and afterward I washed and waxed it.
My tools got pretty grimy,
so I cleaned them too. Since
I had the wax out, I used it
on several of them to keep
them from rusting in storage.” — A Reader, via
email
• Add a fabric-softener
sheet to your vacuum bag
when you change it. While
you clean, you will distribute the good smell throughout your home. You also can
use a cotton ball scented
with your favorite essential
oil or even perfume.
• If you have trouble
threading needles, try
spritzing some hairspray
on your finger, and twist
the end of the thread. It will
keep the fibers together and
stiffen it enough to be easily
threaded.
• It’s still possible to save
a bit of money on car maintenance if you can’t change
your own oil. Learn common add-ons that you will
be offered at oil-and-lube
places. Air filters are surprisingly easy to replace on
your own, and so are windshield wipers. Very often,
the staff of auto-supply
chains will lend you tools or
even assist you right in the
parking lot.
• Got bug bites? Try
these for some relief from
the itching of insect bites:
apple-cider vinegar; a paste
of baking soda and water,
allowed to dry on the bite;
a similar paste of meat tenderizer and water; or antiperspirant.

We are used to practicing shots from the fairway, sand or rough to try things on
different surfaces, but one of the areas that most golfers have little to no practice on
is some hard pan. Hard pan refers to a path of rock-hard ground where there is no
grass for the ball to prop up on. This shot is very difficult because we try to be too
cute and the predominant shot is skulled and runs forever. To play the shot correctly,
a sand or pitching wedge is the club of choice according to the trajectory you desire.
The trajectory is solely determined by the position of the ball in your stance. For a high soft shot,
place the ball forward. A standard pitch requires the ball in the center of the stance. If you are
looking to hit a low, running shot, place the ball back in your stance.

the AdvoCare 500 Sprint Cup race. The
track is a superspeedway located 20
miles south of Atlanta with a seating capacity of
over 125,000. It opened in 1960 and was almost
completely rebuilt in 1997. In the process it has
become one of NASCAR's fastest tracks. Like the
truck races at Atlanta Motor Speedway, the Sprint
Cup series has a history of incredible finishes.
Bobby Labonte has achieved more wins than any

Racing News
Clint Bowyer has an offer on
the table from Richard Petty
Motorsports, according to
majority owner Andrew
Murstein. “We gave him an offer recently
and are hoping to hear back from him,”
Murstein said. Murstein said that Bowyer
was at the top of the list of drivers he’d like
to hire if RPM expanded beyond the two
cars it currently fields for drivers AJ
Allmendinger and Marcos Ambrose.
Bowyer is 12th in the point standings, 22
points out of the Chase. He has four career
victories but has yet to win in 2011.
Racing Trivia
Who was the first driver to win
the Nascar championship 3
years in a row?
a) Darrell Waltrip
b) Fireball Roberts
?
c) John Elway
d) Cale Yarborough
Answer : d) Cale Yarborough.
Jim Gabriel, Jr. capitalized
on his front row starting spot
in the 25 lap Modified feature
at I-88 Speedway last Friday
night by capturing his fourth
feature win of the year.
Dominating the event
from the start of the race,
Gabriel weathered two
early caution periods and
by lap 8 had opened a full
straightaway lead. After
weaving through lapped
traffic for six laps, Gabriel’s
large lead evaporated when
J.R. Hurlburt tangled with
Chris Shupp on the front
stretch. When the race
restarted, Gabriel again
jumped out to a big lead over
second-running Tim Mayne.
Gabriel went on to take the
win with Mayne finishing
second, Bob Hamm, third,
Rich Ricci Jr., fourth, and
Jason Andrews, fifth.
Second-year competitor
Brandon Walters picked up
his second win of the season
in the 20-lap Sportsmen
feature. Walters out gunned
Charlie Hendrickson Jr. at
the drop of the green flag and
took control of the early laps
of the event. Hendrickson
would reel in the leader, but
each time Walters would pull
away just as Hendrickson
began to make a move to the
front.
Walters took the win
with Hendrickson, second,
James Cornell, third, Todd
Hurlburt, fourth, and Aaron
Shelton, fifth.
Matt Bowman took the
lead at the start of the 20-lap
Olum’s Street Stock feature.
With Dustin Harris running
third and Paul Harrington
in fourth, sixth starting
Kurt Decker slipped under
Dwayne Jackson to move
into fifth. On the sixth lap,
Harrington and Decker
passed Harris when he went
wide in turn two. Two laps
later, Decker drove under
Harrington to move into
second place.
At the halfway point, the
three leaders entered lapped
traffic and three laps later,
Harrington passed Decker
to recapture second place.
Harrington continued toward
the front, taking over the top
spot one lap later coming off
turn four. On the next lap,
Bowman made contact with
a lapped car, resulting in
contact with Decker, ending
Decker’s night.
Harrington went on to
take the win with Bowman
second, Nick Robinson
third, Neil Palladino fourth
and Dustin Harris fifth.
Brian Steigerwald picked
up his first career feature win
in the IMCA Modified 20-lap
feature. Steigerwald took the
lead on the lap 3 restart from
Ken Winn and held off Gary
Roberts over the last fifteen
laps of the race for the win.
Brad Weaver finished third
with Gary Smith, fourth, and
Leonard Miller, fifth.
Dave Smith continued his
