Teacher jailed for having sex with student

BY ELIOT DUKE Staff Writer

A former Thomasville High School teacher will spend time in jail for having a sexual relationship with a student.

Edward Heath Williamson, 33, of 10 Johnia Court, was found guilty April 30 of a sexual act between a teacher and a student and will serve three months in Davidson County Jail as part of his sentence.

In addition to jail time, Williamson also must serve 36 months of supervised probation, including one year of intensive probation. According to Kathy Haynes, a superior clerk at the Davidson County Clerk of Courts office, intensive probation includes several strict requirements that Williamson will have to follow. Williamson will have to register as a sex offender for the next 30 years and cannot have contact with the female victim. “[Williamson] will be moni-

“They have a lot of things they have to do through probation.”

Should he fail to meet his probation requirements, Haynes said Williamson will have to serve 13 to 16 months in jail as part of his active sentence.

AT HOME WITH ART From left, Carla Brinkley and her daughter Brooklyn look at a pice of artwork at the Home School Art Show at the Thomasville Public Library. The exhibit offers home schoolers the opportunity to showcase their talent for the public. Artwork included self portraits, basket weaving, chalk and glue and clay sculpture. The library, which held a reception Monday night, will keep the exhibit open through May 21. Prizes were awarded for first , second and third place in selected categories.

Thomasville City Council declined to apply for grant money to be used for infrastructure improvements to a potential apartment complex at the public hearing held Monday night.

The 4-2 vote against the grant application caused Weaver-Kirkland – the developer of the complex – to abandon its plan to build 40 apartments at the site, called Kirkwood Village Limited Partnership, located off Old Raleigh Road.

The project would have been a $4.9 million investment in the community, and the $240,000 Community Development Block Grant (CDGB) Tax Credit Housing Development Program would have gone to improving the infra-

sacrifices that are made by not only our officers but those statewide and nationwide,” Maj. James Mills said. “We take a few minutes to reflect on the ultimate sacrifice that these officers were called to make.”

It has been more than 30 years since TPD lost two officers on one fateful night in 1977.

Former police chief Larry Murdock was a lieutenant in charge of patrol on Jan. 8, 1977, when he assigned officers Dennis Spinnett and R.G. Crawford to a domestic violence call on Douglas Drive. Both officers were gunned down.

“On that particular night, it was a cold, winter night,” said Murdock. “I sent the two officers to answer the call. I assigned another patrol officer to follow up, but by the time he arrived on the scene, he went into the house and found both officers had been shot and

HEALTH

Diet and exercise reduce chances of Alzheimer’s LIFELONG HEALTH

DR. DAVID LIPSCHITZ Syndicated Columnist

By the time you reach age 85, there is a 50 percent chance you will have memory loss, mostly likely due to Alzheimer’s disease.

The risk is substantially increased if the disease is present in more than one family member or if the diagnosis was made earlier than age 75. If a person has one of the genes associated with developing Alzheimer’s disease, the risk of Alzheimer’s increases by 50 percent.

If two of the genes are present, the risk in-

creases to 100 percent.

It takes about 20 years for Alzheimer’s disease to be present with symptoms of memory loss. If a parent has Alzheimer’s disease at age 70, a child who will develop Alzheimer’s disease will have abnormalities identifiable in the brain at age 50. It follows that it is never too early to begin efforts to reduce your risk of this disease. Here are recommendations for at-risk family members: First, stay active and engaged in life. Research in identical twins shows that Alzheimer’s is much less common in a twin who stays more active later in life, does not retire and continues to be involved in community activities.

If at high risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease, exercising the mind as often and as much as possible will prolong the onset of memory loss.

Even in symptomatic patients, active reading, crossword puzzles and anything that challenges

the mind appear to slow the rate of the disease’s progression. Adults who have a higher level of education and are lifelong learners have a lower risk of developing memory loss.

Physical exercise is a crucial component of preventing Alzheimer’s disease. It not only reduces risks of heart disease and cancer but also decreases the chances of memory loss. Aerobic activity and strength training with weights improve strength, mood and memory.

Eating right not only reduces the risk of cardiovascular disease but also decreases the chances of developing Alzheimer’s disease.

Just published in the Archives of Neurology, a study examined the diet of 2,148 people over 65.

The results showed that the risk of Alzheimer’s was reduced by more than 30 percent in those who had a diet that contained a higher intake of salad dressing, nuts, fish,

tomatoes, poultry, cruciferous vegetables, fruits, and dark and green leafy vegetables and a lower intake of high-fat dairy products, red meat, organ meat and butter.

It is also recommended that people at very high risk of Alzheimer’s disease be treated as if they had a heart attack beginning 20 years before their family member first showed symptoms of memory loss. In addition to a heart-healthy lifestyle, the target LDL (bad) cholesterol should be below 70. This frequently requires the use of a medication.

There is also evidence that taking an ACE (angiotensin-converting enzyme) inhibitor -- a medication used to decrease blood pressure and reduce the risk of heart attacks and heart failure -- appears to also delay the development of Alzheimer’s. For example, if a mother developed Alzheimer’s disease at age 75, the daughter should begin

Novant Health welcomes new officers TIMES STAFF REPORT

WINSTON-SALEM – Novant Health has named Sallye Liner chief clinical officer of Novant Health. Jeff Lindsay has been named president of Forsyth Medical Center and chief operating officer of the Greater Winston-Salem Market.

In her new position, Liner will work with leaders across Novant Health to ensure smooth, high quality care as patients transition among providers such as inpatient, outpatient and primary care physicians.

Lindsay most recently served

as president of Novant Health’s Rowan Regional Medical Center in Salisbury. He joined Novant Health in 1996 as Forsyth Medical Center’s director of cardiac services. He was later promoted to vice president of cardiac services and also served as president of Presbyterian Hospital Huntersville.

In his new role, Lindsay will lead Forsyth Medical Center, a 961-bed, not-for-profit, tertiary care hospital offering a full range of emergency, medical, surgical, rehabilitative and behavioral health services.

He will also lead the greater Winston-Salem market, which includes Medical Park Hospital, Kernersville Medical Center, Thomasville Medical Center and Rowan Regional Medical Center.

Open House planned for Premier Medical Plaza

High Point Regional Health System and Cornerstone Health Care are hosting a free community open house at the new Premier Medical Plaza building on Saturday from 9 to noon.

“High Point Regional and Cornerstone Health Care are excited about this innovative medical facility,” said Jeff Miller, president, High Point Regional Health System.

“Premier Medical Plaza offers a variety of services to the citizens of High Point, Jamestown, Kernersville, Oak Ridge and Greensboro.”

The event, “Healthy Families, Healthy Children,” will feature health screenings, a kids’ play area with six inflatables, face painting, a balloon artist, free minor bike repair, healthy refreshments, building tours and opportunities to meet the physicians practicing in the new building.

Former NFL player Ricky Proehl will make a presentation at 10 am and sports coaches from Proehlific Park will be offering football, basketball, baseball, speed and agility clinics.

“We are pleased to provide so many primary care and specialty practices under one roof in

therapy at age 55.

Compulsive treatment of any medical problems will also delay the development of memory loss. It is important to aggressively treat conditions such as high blood pressure, diabetes, hypothyroidism and depression. For someone under the age of 70, the target systolic (top) blood pressure should be consistently less than 135 and preferably less than 120. If an elevated blood sugar is identified without any other symptoms (pre-diabetes), it is important to return the level to normal by diet and medication.

While there is still much research needed to identify appropriate medical therapies that reduce the risk of Alzheimer’s, some treatments that seemed promising have proven unsuccessful. For example, because Alzheimer’s is associated with inflammatory changes in the brain, researchers have suspected that drugs that

reduce inflammation, such as Aleve, Motrin or Celebrex, may also reduce risks of memory loss. Unfortunately, most evidence does not indicate a benefit, and side effects are unacceptably high. In addition, researchers once thought that megadoses of vitamins E, C and A would reduce the risk of Alzheimer’s, but data shows that it may actually increase the risk.

There are many strategies to decrease the risk of Alzheimer’s disease, and everyone, regardless of family history, should make every effort to prevent this terrible illness.

HPRH receives excellence award for MRSA reduction TIMES STAFF REPORT HIGH POINT — High Point Regional Health System has been recognized by VHA Inc., the national health care network, as a leader in clinical quality and patient safety for its efforts to reduce the incidence of hospital-acquired infections, specifically Methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus, also known as MRSA. High Point Regional was one of only 13 hospitals in the region to be recognized by VHA’s regional office in Charlotte, N.C. For 2009, the Health System’s rate was .07 or less for hospital-acquired MRSA infections per 1,000 patient days.

“High Point Regional

has demonstrated a significant commitment to patient safety through its infection prevention efforts, which help improve the quality of care while also reducing costs,” said Terri Bowersox, director of performance improvement for VHA’s Central Atlantic region.

“Hospitals across the nation would benefit from looking at High Point Regional’s performance and mimicking their work.”

Bowersox noted that essential elements for sustaining superior clinical quality levels are CEO leadership and commitment as well as a willingness by the nurses and physicians in the organization to learn from the best practices that are in place in other high-performing hospitals.

Who says runoff is good for Dems?

VIEWPOINT

D.G. MARTIN N.C. Columnist Okay. So what if most North Carolina political experts disagree with me?

They say that a primary runoff like the upcoming one in the race for the North Carolina Democratic nomination will be detrimental to the eventual winner.

They point out that the runoff between Elaine Marshall and Cal Cunningham forces both candidates to spend money against each other while their eventual Republican opponent, Senator Richard Burr, is raising more funds to use in the fall.

And, they say, the time Marshall and Cunningham fight each other could be better used to organize and prepare for the November general election.

They remind us that a hard-fought, bitter primary runoff can leave negative impressions about both candidates. The winner might be burdened with the unfavorable impressions created by the loser’s hard-hitting ads.

Finally, they argue that these “second primaries” are a waste of everybody’s time and effort since so few voters show up at the polls.

Good points.

Here is the other side.

To have any chance of winning in November, the Democrats need a jumpstart of enthusiasm for their nominee. She or he will stand a better chance of getting that kind of spirit when the nominee is a clear winner over another strong candidate. It did not happen in the first primary. But it can happen in the June runoff.

At the very least, the winner will move into the fall election having won more than 50 percent of the vote. Right now both candidates have the burden of having more that 50 percent of the primary voters go against them.

More important, perhaps, the runoff gives both candidates the opportunity to grab the spotlight in ways that were not open during the days leading up to the May primary. The field was too crowded. Without a second

primary, the nominee would be stuck with only the very hazy impressions generated so far. The extra weeks between the primary and the runoff give both candidates more time on the political center stage to refine and drive home a message and build name recognition and credibility with the public. The free publicity and public contact during the next few weeks can be positive factors in the fall election — and worth hundreds of thousands of dollars.

In the summer months before a November campaign, it is almost impossible to develop the mood of immediacy that a candidate needs to prepare for the fall by expanding the organization, by recruiting new supporters, assigning tasks, and building teams across the state.

A primary runoff can put a candidate’s statewide organization to work at a time when it would otherwise be waiting and resting. The contest forces the candidate and his or her organization to push those organizational efforts.

Practice makes politicians better speakers, better interviewees, and better fundraisers. As they are required to explain, and as they learn to listen on the campaign trail, they improve as candidates.

If you think of politicians as “actors,” the runoff is a valuable dress rehearsal for the fall campaign. It requires the candidate to go over his or her message and practice the lines and the moves, getting better prepared to meet the critical audience that will grade the performance in the fall.

Do you want an example?

Maybe you remember the 1990 senate primary contest between Harvey Gantt and Mike Easley. Gantt led Easley in the first primary, but did not quite reach the 40 percent threshold. The runoff gave both candidates more exposure and credibility, giving Gantt and his campaign a jumpstart that helped him mount a very strong effort against Senator Helms.

How about you? Do you agree with the experts — or with me?

Meeting stupidity with stupidity VIEWPOINT

JOE CONASON Syndicated Columnist Isaac Newton formulated three laws of motion, No. 3 being: For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. If he were still around, he’d propose a fourth: For every action, there is an unequal and opposite overreaction.

Lately, Americans seem to be taking advice from Oscar Wilde, who said, “Moderation is a fatal thing.” Stupidity can be met and defeated with sensible, proportionate measures. Or it can be met with even greater stupidity. Guess which is the preferred option these days.

Last week, a 17-yearold knucklehead exposed his idiocy to the world by venturing onto the field at a Philadelphia Phillies game and running around waving a towel. When a pursuing policeman got weary of the chase, he pulled out his Taser and shot the kid.

For that, the officer won praise from players, sportscasters and city police commissioner Charles Ramsey, who said the cop “acted appropriately. I support him 100 percent.” The cop was in line with department policy, Ramsey said, because “he was attempting to make an arrest and the male was attempting to flee.”

Really? Hitting a delinquent with a potentially fatal 50,000-volt burst of electricity even though he poses no physical danger to anyone

and has zero chance of escaping? Maybe the commissioner should read the directions from the Taser manufacturer, which say the devices are meant to “incapacitate dangerous, combative or high-risk subjects.”

The Police Executive Research Forum says they “should be used only on people 1) actively resisting or exhibiting active aggression or 2) at risk of harming themselves or others.” A federal appeals court ruled that cops may not use Tasers unless “the suspect poses an immediate threat to the officer or a member of the public.”

Sure, shooting the kid with a Taser taught him a lesson and will undoubtedly deter others from following his example. But if that were the only consideration, riddling him with live ammo would have been even more effective. The rational response would have been to let him cavort until he ran out of gas, then take him away, leaving punishment to the courts.

That is not to say the courts are always rational.

The other day, a 19-year-old woman showed up in a Lake County, Ill., courtroom gallery sporting a T-shirt that only a person of incompetent judgment would wear outside the house. “I have the (female sexual organ), so I make the rules,” it announced.

That claim might be true if she were the only woman in possession of one. True or not, it was the wrong message to present to Judge Helen Rozenberg, who immediately held her in contempt and sentenced her to 48 hours in jail.

The judge could have ordered the offending party to leave. She could have insisted that she cover up. She could have delivered a stern lecture.

But the only remedy the magistrate could devise was to lock her up like a crimi-

nal. In Rozenberg’s case, “judicial temperament” is a contradiction in terms.

Critics of the new Arizona immigration law likewise have decided to fight fire with napalm. Rather than merely object that the statute is shortsighted, counterproductive and vulnerable to abuse, they decided to pretend it’s the greatest atrocity of the 21st century.

“When I heard about it, it reminded me of Nazi Germany,” insisted Hispanic Federation President Lillian Rodriguez Lopez. Los Angeles Cardinal Roger Mahony said Arizona was “reverting to German Nazi” methods.

A New Jersey cartoonist drew Hitler with a mustache in the shape of Arizona.

The only value of statements like those is to reveal how little the speaker knows about life under the Fuehrer.

Where are the concentration camps? Where is the mass slaughter? Who is the all-powerful dictator?

Arizona may have become an uncomfortable place for Latinos, legal or illegal, but it bears about as much resemblance to Nazi Germany as it does to Antarctica. If a law like this were the worst thing Hitler had ever done, nobody would remember him today.

In moments when we are presented with a sore provocation, the temptation is to respond with unrestrained fury. But wanton indulgence of anger usually ends up compounding foolishness with lunacy.

You can fight fire with fire. As a rule, though, it’s better to use water.

FROM PAGE 1 WALK

“It’s just kind of a little fun challenge,” said Billy Freeman, Parks and Recreation director. “There’s no real reward to winning other than bragging rights. It’s just to encourage people to get out and move more.”

Move More Thomasville held a similar event last fall, and 155 people turned out to the walk. Freeman hopes to draw as many if not more people this time around.

Registration for the challenge begins at 5 p.m. in the bandstands on Main Street. At 5:15, Move More Thomasville will hold a dedication ceremony at the depot for new sidewalk markers.

The walking trails came as a result of an Eat Smart Move More grant received in 2009. Markers are embedded into the sidewalk with different colored arrows pointing pedestrians along the three different routs.

“There are other towns that have designated routes downtown — we thought that it’d be nice to have in Thomasville,” Freeman said. “It’s also just a way to encourage people to get out and visit our downtown are and make it a more lively, thriving place.”

The red route, called the church route, meanders down Randolph Street past the various churches. The commerce route, marked in green, goes down Main Street past the downtown businesses.

A blue route, or historic homes walk, follows Salem Street into the residential areas. A brochure, handed out at the event and available at the Tourism office, points out historical places the routes pass.

“The guide is something that has some history of Thomasville that you either walk by or you walk near to that a lot of people probably don’t know about Thomasville,” Freeman said.

“It’s just kind of an effort to help people get some exercise and at the same time learn a little bit about your city.”

Though walkers don’t necessarily have to follow the routes, Freeman said Move More Thomasville encourages people to explore the new pathways and admire the downtown.

Also as part of the event, the YMCA will hold a Zumba demonstration from

“They obviously don’t want it, they don’t want the property,” said developer Mark Morgan. “A $4.9 million tax revenue for the city and they just turned it down for now reason.”

The main concerns of the council members lay in the increase in rental property and the potential traffic congestion in the area.

“We’re driving to encourage home ownership, not more rental,” Council member Scott Styers said.

During the public hearing, Jane Hill also objected to the presence of more rental housing.

“I really think that we need to think seriously about adding more rental property to our city,” she said. “Right now, we are overloaded with rental property, and, if you ride around town, you’ll notice that much of it is vacant.”

Morgan, however, maintained that the area needs an affordable apartment complex. Kirkwood Village targeted working families earning between $2535,000 a year.

“We have done a market study for your particular market,” Morgan said. “Just to be blunt and to the point, it’s just off the charts. You need rental housing bad, real bad. The market shows that you’re demand for affordable apartments is up in the 100 range.”

Styers said the council had the opposite impression.

“Most of the folks on this council have expressed concern that our rental to home ownership is already way too

“That’s just something that’s new and popular and fun now,” Freeman said.

“It’s kind of one of those latest fads.”

Wellness Coordinator of Thomasville City Schools, Mary Jane Akerman, said Zumba also gives participants a different way to stay active.

“Move More Thomasville is about just moving more,” Akerman said. “Walking is obviously an inexpensive, easy thing that anyone can do. Zumba’s just an alternative activity that individuals can participate in.”

Setting time aside to stay active has become increasingly more important in today’s society, Freeman said.

“The statistics out there show that Americans are heavier than they’ve ever been,” he said. “That comes from less active lifestyles than our ancestors had.”

Part of that comes from an increase in technology, such as cars and Internet, which don’t necessarily require movement.

“Our society does not really set itself up for getting people to be as active as they once had to be,” Freeman said. “In an effort to help us be healthier, we just look for some ways to encourage that.

People who are active, statistics prove that they tend to live not only a longer life but also a more productive life.”

The event will end at 5:55 p.m. to give people a chance to attend the Peace Officers Memorial Service at the Police Department at 6 p.m.

The service also will honor David Taylor, a Greensboro police officer who died on Aug. 7, 2001, Todd Cook, a DCSO deputy who died Jan. 27, 2000 and two constables — John Bodenheimer (July 2, 1946) and Robert G.

high,” he said. “It surprises me to hear you say that there’s such a need in this community.”

As for traffic, Morgan said that Weaver-Kirkland had spoken to the Department of Transportation about congestion near Old Raleigh Road and found no problems. But council members saw future obstacles with the potential expansion of Old Dominion and the business park, both down in that area.

“It just seems to me that the whole little corner there might ought to be better served being commercial as opposed to residential,” said Council Member David Yemm. “I would much rather see someone using grant money or tax credits to refurbish one of our old furniture buildings.”

Political activist Barney W. Hill opposed the grant application not because of the plans for the site or any traffic issues but because of the government funding.

“I say torpedo the transaction,” he told the council. “It is as wrong for government to subsidize development as it is for government to punish development.”

TIMES STAFF REPORT With two outs and the game tied in the bottom of the seventh, East Davidson’s Preston Gammons ripped an RBI single to left field, driving in Braxton Shetley for a walkoff 8-7 win over West Davidson in the Central Carolina Conference tournament title game.

West had fought back from a 7-1 deficit in the top of the seventh getting a grand slam from Colby Bassett to tie it.

East starter Keaton

Hawks helped his cause in the first inning, plating leadoff hitter Justin Weavil, who had reached on a walk.

The bottom of the Golden Eagle lineup made it 20 in the bottom of the second.

Braxton Shetley walked, stole second and reached third on a passed ball.

Taylor Warren plated him for the second run.

West put together a serious threat in the top of the third, but Hawks

stood his ground on the hill.

Tyler Hudson had walked and made his way around to third with no outs, using a Hawks balk and wild pitch to get there. West could have plated a run when Gary Ferguson lined a deep out to Weavil in right field, but the courtesy runner on third failed to tag up, and nothing was hurt on the play for East. Hawks thwarted the rally with a strikeout

and flyout.

The Golden Eagles took (at the time) a stranglehold on the game in the bottom half, scoring four runs to rattle West’s Ferguson. Davin Lawson, Justin Mounts, Preston Gammons and Warren each had an RBI, as the East lead grew to 6-0.

After EDHS scored its seventh run in the fourth, West finally got on the board with a run in the fifth.

He has a perfect batting average after winning both ends of a doubleheader at the track “Too Tough To Tame.”

Too tough to tame more than name for Kvapil, Darlington It seems oddly appropriate to be standing in a hauler with Travis Kvapil in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series garage at Darlington Raceway because in a way, both are testaments to the tenacity of “the little guy.”

Kvapil, driver of the No. 34 Long John Silver’s Ford for Front Row Motorsports has, to paraphrase the old Joni Mitchell song, looked at racing “from both sides now.”

The Wisconsin native got off to a great early start after securing a deal in the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series in 2001, where he was named Rookie of the Year that same season. He won the Series title in 2003.

Darlington made an early career splash, too.

The big track in the little town created a major sensation back in 1950.

Just as great drivers assume the mantle of those who have gone before them and move the sport forward — from Richard Petty and Dale Earnhardt to Jeff Gordon and Jimmie Johnson, for example — Darlington Raceway moved NASCAR off the beach and the dirt and onto the pavement for good.

It was over 60 years ago, but she was definitely the Rookie of the Year.

Kvapil quickly moved up through the ranks of racing, competing in the Cup Series part-time in 2003 for Penske Racing and full-time in 2005 for PPI Motorsports before joining forces with Jack Roush to return to the Truck Series in 2007.

He won four races that year, and in 2008 moved to Yates Racing, where

the real star of the night was the double-file “Choice” restart rule.

Saturday’s Bill Plemmons RV World 100 was the first 100-lapper of the season for the Bill Plemmons RV World Modified Series, and like all 100lap races, the field was determined by random draw. Junior Miller of Danbury drew the pole with Brian King of Gibsonville starting on the outside front row. Although King is a rookie to Bowman Gray Stadium, he’s far from a novice driver, so he pulled no punches as he battled with Miller for the lead.

As the green fell, neither driver would budge.

The No. 69 car of Miller and King collided, spinning King around and bringing out the caution. Although Miller was able to maintain the lead, his car was badly damaged as a result of the incident.

“We ran down there, and the 17 just turned in — I guess he thought he had us cleared,” said Miller.

And although he fought his best and fended off several challenges, Miller knew it was only a matter of time until someone grabbed the lead away from him and his ailing car.

That’s exactly what Tim Brown of Cana , Va. did less than 30 laps later, jumping up to the outside during a doublefile restart and powering past Miller on the outside. Brown stayed up front despite hard nudges from Jonathan Brown of Winston-Salem and several outside-row challenges from Miller.

Burt Myers, who had been steadily climbing his way up from a 16th place start, was able to move up to the outside front row during a double-file restart at just a little over the halfway point. Brown was nudged

by Zach Brewer of Winston-Salem as he tried to hold onto the top spot.

The tap was just enough to get him off the pace

and allowed Myers to steal away the lead.

“I knew that when I got to pull up to the outside of Tim that we had a shot at it,” said Myers.

“I cleared him into turn one and then it was clear sailing.”

Brewer gave another hard tap to the rear of Tim Brown on the next lap, sending Brown heading off towards the guard rail. Brewer went on to pass, while Brown fell back several positions.

Myers held onto the lead for the remainder of the race. Brown fought forward during the final laps to salvage a fifth place finish. Brian Loftin of Lexington finished in second, with Brent Elliott of Denton taking third.

In the Webb Heating & A/C Co. Sportsman Series, Bryant Robertson claimed the checkered in the first 20-lapper — his first win ever at the Stadium. Ryan Nelson of Winston-Salem held off Derek Stoltz of Walkertown to win the second 20-lap race.

Matt Cotner of Rural Hall brought home the victory in the 20-lapper for the 104.1 WTQR Street Stock Series. Billy Gregg of Winston-Salem grabbed the lead away from Cotner during a restart, but a bump from Cotner sent Gregg spinning. Cotner reclaimed the lead and was able to hang on the rest of the way. John McNeal of Winston-Salem and Allen Henkel of Trinity finished in second and third.

SPORTS CLAIMS From page 7 for good shortly after the halfway point of the race.

Trailing Hamlin across the finish line was pole winner Jamie McMurray, who ran with the leaders most of the night. Another strong contender, Kurt Busch, finished third, and Gordon charged back through the field to finish fourth, just ahead of Juan Pablo Montoya.

Kevin Harvick was sixth ahead of Kyle Busch, Burton, Ryan Newman and Brian Vickers.

Eleven cautions slowed the field from time to time as drivers slid against the wall, earning the famous Darlington Stripe.

Popular Dale Earnhardt, Jr., never challenged for the lead although he ran as high as the top 10 at times before winding up 18th.

Gordon, one of the few drivers who enjoy the challenges of Darlington, jumped out front on the opening lap and put some distance between himself and Red Bull’s Vickers.

Vickers, however, took the lead on Lap 39 with Gordon and Kasey Kahne behind him. Meanwhile, Johnson, the four-time champion, was struggling back in 14th spot after getting sideways between Turns 1 and 2, tapping the wall with his right rear quarter panel.

The first caution fell on Lap 45 when Michael McDowell hit the wall in Turn 2.

When the race restarted on Lap 51, McMurray led after beating Vickers and Gordon out of the pits, but it was only a few laps before both Bobby Labonte and Joey Logano scraped the wall and spun, bringing the caution out again on Lap 53.

This time, McMurray again took the lead when racing resumed at Lap 60.

It didn’t last long because Paul Menard was tapped in the rear by Stewart when cars stacked up out of Turn 2.

KVAPIL From page 7 to Yates Racing, where he stayed for the entire season and the first five races of the following year, before the team was forced to shut down due to lack of funding.

When NASCAR was in the very early stages of its mainstream explosion a couple of decades ago, there was perhaps no better-known speedway in America than Darlington Raceway. RJR, sponsor of the Cup Series at the time, gave the track the designation of one of NASCAR’s “crown jewels” by naming it part of the Winston Million bonus promotion, along with Daytona, Talladega and Charlotte.

But Darlington eventually fell victim to NASCAR’s geographic expansion, losing one of its two Sprint Cup Series weekends entirely. And, in what was considered by many to be even worse, after more than five decades of racing on Labor Day weekend, it was announced that Darlington’s one Cup race would move to May, on Mother’s Day weekend.

Last year, John Andretti piloted the No. 34 for still-young Front Row Motorsports. During the summer, when Andretti headed out to compete in the Indianapolis 500, the team’s manager approached Kvapil about driving the car while he was gone.

“That didn’t work out, but we kind of stayed in touch throughout the summer and I felt like we were all heading in the direction of putting this team together for this year,” Kvapil says.

“We did a few races together — at Charlotte, Homestead, Martinsville — and everyone got to know one another, and

Menard spun but fortunately failed to hit anything.

Once again, the race restarted with McMurray out front on Lap 66. He was trailed by Gordon, Hamlin, Vickers, Burton, Kahne, Kurt Busch, Newman, Montoya and Kenseth. Johnson was running 29th after his team worked to repair the damage sustained when he scraped the wall.

Another caution came out on lap 84 after Greg Biffle triggered a three-car accident that also involved Martin Truex and Jimmie Johnson. Biffle’s car broke loose and slid sideways in front of Truex, who turned his car sideways to avoid Biffle. Johnson did the same thing but slid into Truex’s Toyota.

Stewart was leading on the Lap 89 restart after not pitting. He was trailed

by Gordon and Hamlin but Gordon took the lead again on Lap 92. Hamlin moved into second and McMurray held down the third spot. Rounding out the top 10 were Kurt Busch, Kahne, Burton, Stewart, Montoya, Kyle Busch and Harvick.

A round of green flag pit stops took place between Laps 141 and 145 and Hamlin came out in the lead with Gordon right behind him. Kyle Busch was third. McMurray was next followed

by Kurt Busch, Montoya, Kahne, Harvick, Vickers and Earnhardt. Stewart was 11th at the time. Another caution fell on Lap 171 when Sam Hornish, Jr., slammed the outside wall.

On the restart, the field barely made a lap before the caution came out again when Kevin Conway hit the wall. Another accident under the caution knocked Johnson and Allmendinger out of the race. Allmendinger was trying to catch up to the field under caution and lost his brakes. He dove low on the track trying to miss everyone and lost control. His car spun backwards up the track and crashed hard into the driver’s door of Johnson’s car.

The impact trashed both cars.

The race was restarted at Lap 190 with McMurray, Kyle Busch and Gordon out front.

we put a deal together.

“The thing that I really liked was the direction of the team — Yates motors under the hood, plans to expand to more than one car, then Ford coming on board. There are some challenges and disadvantages, but there are a lot of things I really like. I’ve been around the sport for a long time, and I feel like I have a lot to bring to the table, and with this being a smaller team, I feel like my voice is heard.”

As for Darlington Raceway, she made her voice heard, as well.

With a Saturday night event, tremendous fan support and the added benefit of being, well, Darlington, the track “Too Tough To Tame” proved she was exactly that. The Showtime Southern 500 weekend in May has quickly become one of the most popular and highly anticipated annual stops on the Sprint Cup Series circuit.

Over at Front Row Motorsports, the building process continues.

It isn’t easy, but as we see so often in NASCAR, steady can win the race.

“I feel like nobody really expects much out of this team,” Kvapil says. “All the guys have been with bigger teams, teams with budgets and hundreds of people on staff. We’re very small.

We don’t have all the resources of everyone else, and I feel like nobody really expects much out of us, but we’re working very hard and we feel like when we make it through and the economy turns around and sponsors want to start spending money in the sport, they will look at us.

“Then, we can really elevate this team.”

The story of that famous train that simply refused to quit has become a classic for a

AREA NEWS Man arrested for sex offense against 2-year-old TIMES STAFF REPORT

Davidson County Sheriff ’s Office arrested a man who allegedly committed sex offenses against a 2year-old.

According to a DCSO press release, David Walter Colen, 44, of 3723 Highway 47 East in Lexington, was arrested and charged with two counts of first degree sex offense with a child and two counts of taking indecent liberties with a child following an investigation that alleges

JAILED From page 1 tween a student and an adult. When you break that trust that you have to have between a student and a teacher it’s unacceptable. I’m sure that’s the way all school systems feel. It’s something that we will not let go on in our school system.”

Since the female victim was at least 16 years old, no statutory charges were filed.

Staff Writer Eliot Duke can be reached at 888-3578, or duke@tvilletimes.com.

FRESH From page 3 how to plant, grow and harvest a different item each week. Tim then prepares a variety of delicious recipes using the featured item. At the end of each program Tim, Jan and their special guests sit down to enjoy a great meal together.

The series will provide a window to the beauty and culture of North Carolina. Each program is produced at various locations throughout the state, but the Southern Fresh home kitchen and primary garden are located in Linville Ridge, at the home of Toby and Wayne Press. This location is close to Grandfather Mountain, a popular tourist attraction in Western North Carolina.

Southern Fresh travels throughout North Carolina to illustrate healthy ingredients found beyond the typical backyard garden. The “garden” can be the ocean, a mountain stream, a field of flowers, a wheat field and more.

One program begins in a colorful pumpkin patch where Jan shows how to grow pumpkins and select the best one. Tim prepares a pumpkin chili, curried pumpkin seeds and a “Harvest Pumpkin Cheesecake.” Everything is then devoured by family and friends.

Other programs will feature a Carolina pigpicking, strawberries, edible flowers, and even the joy of chocolate, and much more. Many of the recipes prepared on the programs are taken from Tim and Jan’s book, The Herb Garden Gourmet.

Visit their website, timandjan.com to learn more about the series, the hosts and their books.

Southern Fresh is produced by Homerun Entertainment, a leading producer of documentary and reality programming in the Lifestyle genre. Some of the Food Network series they have produced include: Best Of, Food Finds, Party Starters and $40 a Day with Rachael Ray.

the victim was a 2-yearold family member. DCSO received a report of an alleged child molestation from Davidson County Child Protective Services on Feb. 24.

Colen was arrested at the Davidson County Courthouse and issued a $500,000 secured bond. He is scheduled to appear in court Davidson County District Court on June 7.

The City of Thomasville had a wastewater spill on May 6, 2010, of an estimated total volume of 7,480 gallons of untreated wastewater. The wastewater came from a bad joint in a line along Carter Drive and is suspected to have backed up in the line and come out at the bad joint due to root intrusion blocking the line downstream. The wastewater spilled into a tributary to the North Hamby Creek in the Yadkin/Pee Dee River Basin.

The Division of Water Quality was notified of the event on May 6, 2010, and is reviewing the matter. For more information, contact the City of Thomasville at (336) 475-4220
