DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. -- The no-frills Daytona 500 got off to a colorful start on Monday night, mainly because the dude with his hands on the plunger set off the fireworks early.

On the start, Matt Kenseth bump-drafted Greg Biffle while everyone else played nice ... for slightly more than a lap. The bump draft worked

out nicely. Behind the streaking Fords at the front caromed the five-time champion, the previous winner, the banished bad boy and ... The Danica.

Contact between Elliott Sadler's plebeian Chevy and Jim-mie Johnson's royal one touched off the bottle rockets. The last time a driver began a championship season with a 500 victory was Johnson in 2006. Since then he has finished no better than 27th.

Next up for the winner of five of the past six titles: He and crew chief Chad Knaus try to duck the book being hurled at them by the always arbitrary NASCAR judiciary.

"I'm really bummed out," said Johnson, and he wasn't insincere. He said he had some "help" from behind, which is an odd way for destruction to be described. John-son still earned $327,000 dollars, or about $163,000 per lap.

Lots of times, rained-out races seem restrained when everyone comes back and reconjures the magic. In particular, it's usually later than the second lap when someone touches off a brawl of sparks and fire. Rain apparently isn't calming when it's the Daytona 500 and first place is worth $1.5 million or so.

Eleven laps later Ryan Newman went spinning down the back straight, but he had a signed excuse because a tire went flat.

Then there's Danica Patrick, who, as usual, got more attention than Tony Stewart, Lenny Kravitz and Mitt Romney combined. She won a Nationwide Series pole, but otherwise competed in three races -- two major-league and one minor -- and

They All Get Giddy on a Monday Nightwrecked a league-leading 1.000.

It will undoubtedly get better, in large measure because it is impossible for it not to.

It seemed like yesterday when Trevor Bayne won the race, but this time Bayne barely made it a lap. The Kurt Busch Resurrection Tour went on immediate hiatus.

It's one of the reasons NASCAR insists on having 43 cars in every race. Sometimes the big shots charge the bar-ricades too quickly and reinforcements are necessary.

• • •Quotable Quotes:

"I think we (he and Greg Biffle) did everything we could at the end." -- runner-up Dale Earnhardt Jr.

"If I knew something, do you think I'd tell you?" -- Matt Kenseth, asked why he was able to stay ahead of Earnhardt and Biffle.

"I have hit a lot of things, but a jet dryer? I mean, no ..." -- Juan Pablo Montoya.

"This is what he (Kenseth) deserves. He's a hard-core racer, and he's a good man." -- Carl Edwards (eighth)

Is It a Migraine?DEAR DR. DONOHUE: I have had headaches since I was 12. I am now 32. I

hear people talk about their migraine headaches and wonder if I might have them. What makes a headache a migraine headache? I take aspirin for my headaches. It helps, but not all that much. Are there special medicines for migraines? -- K.D.

ANSWER: Yes, there are special migraine medicines, so it is important to determine if your headaches are true migraine headaches.

Some of the distinguishing attributes of migraines are the following: They begin before age 40. More women have them than men. The headache starts out with minor pain but often progresses to intense and incapacitating pain. The word used to describe it is “throbbing.” Nausea and vomiting frequently accompany it. In a little more than half of migraine patients, the headache is on one side only. Bright lights and noise intensify the pain. Sufferers try to find a dark, quiet room where they can lie down until the headache goes, and that can take four to 72 hours.

Migraine sufferers can identify triggers that bring on their headaches. Stress, missing a meal, too much or too little sleep, menstrual periods, bright lights, certain odors like cigarette smoke or perfume and fatigue are some of the things that start a migraine. Alcohol -- beer and red wine in particular -- chocolate, some cheeses and cured meats like hot dogs, sausage and bacon are triggers for some.

Aspirin, Tylenol, Midrin and naproxen alleviate mild migraines. Cafergot is a migraine standby. A group of newer drugs are especially good for migraine suf-ferers. Seven of them are available. Some names are Imitrex, Maxalt and Zomig. Imitrex comes as a nasal spray and as an injection, administered like insulin. Zomig also comes as a nasal spray. This is a godsend for those who become sick to the stomach along with the headache.

Not all migraine headaches produce all the signs and symptoms I mentioned, but if you have more than two of these characteristic symptoms, it’s a good bet that you suffer from migraines.

The booklet on headaches describes the common kinds and their treatment. Readers can obtain a copy by writing: Dr. Donohue -- No. 901W, Box 536475, Orlando, FL 32853-6475. Enclose a check or money order (no cash) for $4.75 U.S./$6 Canada with the recipient’s printed name and address. Please allow four weeks for delivery.

• • •Dr. Donohue regrets that he is unable to answer individual letters, but he will incorporate them in

his column whenever possible. Readers may write him or request an order form of available health newsletters at P.O. Box 536475, Orlando, FL 32853-6475.

Veterans weren’t forgotten in the recent $25 billion mortgage servicing settlement. In fact, veterans were treated much better than civil-ian counterparts who’d had their homes fore-closed.

In the lawsuit leading to the settlement, it was determined that the four biggest mortgage servicers violated the Servicemen’s Civil Relief Act, the law that outlines the rules under which

Veteran Foreclosures

mortgages must be handled for veterans. Those banks will now have to pay veterans

$116,785 each, plus equity that was lost in the property after it was wrongfully foreclosed, plus any interest. That number might end up being higher.

JP Morgan Chase will need to provide the vet-eran with his or her property “free and clear of any debt or the cash equivalent of the full value of the home at the time of sale.”

Citigroup, Wells Fargo and Ally will have to give a refund to any veterans charged more than 6 percent interest on a mortgage after receiv-ing a request to lower that rate, plus triple that amount.

The agreement expands and beefs up the rules for SCRA. Previously a bank was pro-hibited from foreclosing on a veteran-owned property if the mortgage was taken out before

the veteran began military service. Now the rule will additionally state that no matter when the mortgage began, if the veteran received Hostile Fire/Imminent Danger Pay and was away from home within nine months of foreclosure, the veteran is protected from foreclosure.

If you believe you are covered by this settle-ment, get your paperwork in order and call for military legal assistance. Go online to http://legalassistance.law.af.mil and look in the Legal Services Locator for the Armed Forces Legal Assistance office nearest you. Also see www.servicemembers.gov for information, or call the Justice Department at 1-800-896-7743.
