Linder in Ferrari crash during Canadian rally race

by Samantha Hurst

If you want to know how to grab the attention of 1.7 million viewers on YouTube in three days, ask local Roland Linder.

Linder, who’s spent the last 40

years of his life racing motorcycles and exotic vehicles, attracted that

level of attention two weeks ago after he and a co-driver crashed a one-of-a-kind Enzo Ferrari into the Atlantic Ocean.

“I remember as we were flying backwards thinking, ‘Oh, this is going to hurt,’” Linder said.

The crash occurred during the 10th annual Targa Newfoundland race in Newfoundland, Canada.

Linder said five days into the race, co-driver Zahir Rana drove over a bump in the road and into an unexpected patch of gravel. The (Continued on page 3)

New line could connect Polk, Columbus water systems soon

by Leah Justice

Polk County has offered to run a water line from Mill Spring to connect with Columbus, a move that could have far-reaching results for the county and its towns.

Polk County, Columbus, Saluda and Tryon officials met Thursday, Sept. 22

and discussed the possibility.

Columbus Mayor Eric McIntyre said Polk County Manager Ryan Whitson approached the town a couple of months ago with the idea, but the town wasn’t in a position to consider the option (Continued on page 5)

loose gravel sent the car spinning sideways past a handful of spectators, through a guardrail and down an embankment into the Atlantic.

Shed no tears, car lovers – the Enzo is fine, albeit slightly wet.

Linder and Rana climbed out of the ocean without so much as a scratch either.

A veteran racer, Linder has experienced several wrecks in his career, including a major accident in 1986 when he broke his neck. In 2002, his car hit the wall in Topeka, Kan., which ripped his shoulders out of the socket. Four surgeries and much rehab later, he jumped right back into the racing world.

“When you race, you always take a chance; it’s unavoidable,” Linder said. “It’s part of the risk you take and you have to be conscious that it can happen and be mentally and physically ready. It’s like when you fall off a horse, you get right back on and ride again.”

As a road racer Linder knew he

needed to know a lot more about rally racing before navigating 1,600 miles through neighborhood streets. So Linder spent two days at a rally school before the weeklong Targa event. He said the knowledge he learned there kept him and Rana

safe after the crash.

Linder said the school brought up water safety in particular, which came in handy not only in his situation but for a competitor who had crashed into a pond the day prior.

“They taught us to allow some

of the water to come into the car so the pressure could dissipate. The Ferrari has doors that open upward, you know, so it took a bit of time to open the door because of the (Continued on page 4)

pressure of the water,” Linder said.

Linder said the car went into the water backwards, which actually cushioned the blow. This allowed the car to sustain only minimal damage despite being quite soaked.

Mechanics have, however, entirely disassembled the car to ensure no salt from the ocean corrodes internal parts.

Linder was no stranger to the Ferrari that dove into the water.

Seven years ago, Linder picked it up for the owner in California, so he said there was definitely some sentimental attachment, a “love affair” with the car. The Edo Competition Enzo accelerates from 0-62 mph in 3.2 seconds and can hit a top speed of 240 m.p.h.

Crashing didn’t dampen his love affair with racing either.

Having spent most of his career on motorcycles and then road racing, Linder said he’s enjoying this new phase and plans to head back to Canada for the same race

next year. He said the rally race is incredibly challenging because it takes a lot of research and homework to know the course.

In his “retirement,” Linder participates in about 40 racing events a year. He also spends a large amount of time instructing others on the

nuances of racing exotic cars like the Enzo.

Linder left today on his way to another Ferrari event.

because it was in the middle of working out a development agree-

ment with Foster Creek that also involved a water line.

McIntyre said the town was trying to work it out for Foster Creek to run a water line up Hwy. 108 to the development, estimated at approximately $465,000. Columbus approved the development agreement, but Foster Creek is not required to install a water line until the 175th dwelling is in place, which could take several years.

“They are estimating 18 months to two years before they shuffle dirt out there,” said McIntyre. “Once the process starts, depending on the economy, it may be several years before you get that 175th dwelling.”

Polk County Manager Ryan Whitson said running a water line connecting Mill Spring and Columbus has been discussed in this county many times.

“I’ve lost many nights’ sleep worrying about having to shut down the middle school,” said Whitson. “I think the value of a line there and back up to the schools and our new human resources facility is very, very important.”

Whitson said he thinks five to six years is too long to wait. He also said the line needs a valve so water can flow either way.

“I think it’s beneficial for Columbus and the county to have that backup,” Whitson said. “The other value is it connects all the towns and the county. At a later point it would be possible for the county to sell water to Saluda.”

Whitson also mentioned how long Polk County has thought about running water lines throughout the county.

“I have a file on my desk from 1967 about putting water lines all through the county,” he said.

Polk County asked Columbus to consider the connection and to consider taking over monitoring the county’s well and sewer system located at the middle school site.

The water line would be approximately two miles and would connect the middle school and high school. The tie-in would mean that

Polk County is also connected to the water systems of Columbus, Saluda and Tryon, which were connected last year through work funded by a grant.

Tryon and Columbus’ systems have been connected for years and a water line was installed last year along Howard Gap Road, which connected Saluda to Tryon.

“The beauty is if any one of us went down we’d have water,” said Tryon Mayor Alan Peoples.

Benefits to Polk County A line connecting the county’s Mill Spring water system with Columbus water would give Polk County an extra source of water to supplement the county’s current well system, which already serves the middle school, the recreation park, nearby homes and the current vacant Woodland Mills site. That extra water could be especially useful because a new building is almost complete in Mill Spring to house the Polk County Department of Social Services (DSS).

Details of prices would have to be worked out for the county using Columbus’ water or Columbus using the county’s water, but Whitson said the county will sell water to Columbus for whatever Columbus will sell it for to the county.

The long-term benefit to the county is the new line would serve as a main water line along Hwy. 108, with the county able to pick up any customers interested in having county water. Whitson said he believes the line would add at least two customers along Hwy. 108 for Polk.

The line could solve a problem for Midway Baptist Church as well, which has approached Columbus in the past asking for town water because of issues with lack of water there.

The county currently owns a water line through Green Creek that connects the Broad River Water Authority and Inman Campobello Water District, along with extensions and customers. The county in the future plans to connect the Green Creek line to Mill Spring and eventually to Lake Adger, where a water plant will be constructed.

DOT budgets $674k for Polk secondary roads this year Thermal View, Wilderness, Collinsville top list

by Leah Justice

The N.C. Department of Transportation (DOT) is slated to spend $674,187 this year to improve Polk County’s secondary roads.

• New line (continued from page 5)

Once the county connects Mill Spring with Green Creek, Polk and the towns would be connected in a regional system that would reach from Asheville to Spartanburg, S.C. “One big advantage is, if we get that line and one in Green Creek look at where you’re tied to,” said Polk County Commissioner Ted Owens. “We would already have our regional system put together.”

This year’s project list includes paving Thermal View Drive (0.85 miles) in Lynn and Wilderness Drive (0.52 miles) near Tryon.

The state also plans to widen, drain and pave from Collinsville Road to N.C. 9 (2.6 miles).

Other planned work includes county-wide secondary road work, such as spot stabilization, safety improvements, surveying

and signage.

DOT officials met with the Polk County Board of Commissioners and the public on Thursday, Sept. 15 to review the project list.

DOT district engineer Steve Cannon said some of last year’s projects are still ongoing, including Landrum Road. Improvements to Collinsville Road have

not yet started and will be done at the same time as the N.C. 9 work this year. Work on Peniel Road should also be completed this fall, Cannon said.

There was $144,475 left in last year’s $716,095 budget for Polk County secondary road improvements. The state’s allot-

Benefits to Columbus Along with an additional backup water supply, Columbus could see financial benefits in connecting to the county’s water system.

Revenues could be made from selling water and monitoring the county’s water and sewer system in Mill Spring.

In addition, Columbus could gain financially if Foster Creek did not have to run its own main line.

In the town’s development agreement with Foster Creek, approved

on Sept. 15, Columbus was going to allow Foster Creek to collect tap fees for the first 100 dwellings in return for running the line. If Polk runs the water line, Foster Creek will only have to connect to that line and Columbus could collect the tap fees for all of the home sites.

Another major benefit to Columbus would be that the Hwy. 108 line would essentially create a loop in the town’s water system on that side of town. Currently when a break occurs, businesses, residents

and sometimes the school has to be without water in order to fix a break.

With a new line, the town could shut off one line while still supplying water through the other line.

Columbus agreed to put discussing the tie in on its next agenda, which will be Oct. 21. Columbus Town Manager Jonathan Kanipe and Whitson agreed to get together to work out some details in the meantime.

The next joint meeting is scheduled for Dec. 6 at Columbus Town Hall at 7 p.m.

also asked about whether the DOT could place speed control signs near churches.

“We have a couple of churches on secondary roads that would love to have signs for speed control,” said Owens.

DOT Division Engineer Joel Setzer said that can be done on a case-by-case basis. He said some may not qualify for a speed reduction but could qualify for a sign that may help. In order to get a speed reduction the road is first evaluated by a traffic engineer, including crash data, according to Setzer.

He encouraged commissioners and the public to send any requests regarding state-owned roads to any DOT official via email.

DOT officials said the money reviewed last week is strictly for secondary roads. Highways and interstates such as improvements to I-26 and US 74 are funded differently and placed on the state’s Traffic Improvement Program (TIP) list.

Anticipated projects on the state’s future secondary road program include paving Dalton Road (1.25 miles) in fiscal year 2013 and paving Pea Ridge Road (3.6 miles) in fiscal year 2014.

(continued from page 6)

ment for Polk County this year is $529,712, which combined with last year’s leftover, gives a budget for this year of $674,187.

The state projects $187 will be left over this year to be combined with next year’s state allotment.

Polk County Commissioner Renée McDermott said a couple of residents requested her to ask DOT officials if a small portion of River Road near the bridge could be paved. McDermott said the section between Morgan Chapel Bridge and Golden Road is heavily traveled.

McDermott’s request spurred a couple of comments against ever paving any section of River Road.

Ned Frybarger said he hopes none of River Road ever gets paved.

“That’s one of the spots we enjoy for [horseback] rides,” said Frybarger. “When Morgan Chapel Road was paved it greatly increased traffic. I would hope you would leave the section between the bridge and Golden Road as is.”

Mill Spring Studio to offer commercial photographic equipment, facility for rent; plans grand opening soon Tryon photographer Chris Bartol had closed his downtown studio after 25 years and was looking for some new adventures. All of his studio equipment and lighting was in storage and he wasn’t sure what he wanted to do next….

Then along came Eric and Lynn Turner of Turner HD Media.

At the end of 2010, the Turners had moved their operation to the Mill Spring Ag Center and business was increasing.

Before Lynn could finish her pitch to ask Bartol if he’d like to join them as director of photography, he blurted out, “Yes!” So began an adventure that would have the Turner team crisscrossing the state of North Carolina, capturing stories and making friends.

In the meantime, Bartol decided to drag all of his equipment out of mothballs and open a commercial studio in the Ag Center that would be available for rent to all area photographers, videographers, artists and students. Mill Spring Studio was born and is continuing to grow. It currently occupies approximately 600 square feet (with 12 foot ceilings) on the second floor of the Ag Center.

The studio will offer professional lighting and backdrops for all applications, and will be available for rent by the hour

(with a two-hour minimum).

Whether the user is experienced or requires some expert assistance, Bartol said the rates are affordable and the facilities are as comprehensive as you would find in a large city.

Mill Spring Studio plans to hold a grand opening in the near future.

Hendricks to introduce gold glove for arthritis treatment companies, has worked out a method for hard plating layers of gold at different karat levels (24 karat and 14 karat) onto surgical stainless steel. After the plating was perfected the process of turning stainless steel into a comfortable, flexible, durable, attractive glove was developed using tiny stainless steel “jump rings.”

“The actual material is called chain mail,” Hendricks said. “It feels and looks like the material you see in medieval armor, shark bite suits, or butcher gloves.…

It is our opinion that this will do more in the long term to protect the hands than gold rings or pharmaceuticals. It can be worn at night and during the day up to continuous wear. We suggest at least 12 hours or more based on our current and past clinical observations and feel that the more they are worn, the more beneficial they will be.”

Dessoffy attends course on advanced foot, ankle treatment Yvonne Dessoffy, physical therapy assistant at Pro Physical Therapy of Columbus, recently attended a course on advanced treatment of the foot and ankle.

The course included a clinical review of anatomy of the lower leg, foot and ankle, followed by time spent on reading X-rays and how to identify different fractures, diseases and other abnormalities of foot and ankle bones. The course reviewed techniques of manual therapy, including joint mobilization and soft tissue treatment.

Dessoffy said the class was a great experience overall and reminded her of how disability in the foot and ankle can affect the kinetic chain all the way up to the spine.

Dr. Jeffrey P. Hendricks of Biogenesis Medical Center in Landrum recently received official patent protection for a gold glove designed to be used in the treatment of rheumatoid and other autoimmune forms of arthritis.

The glove is in patent-pending status at the U.S. patent office.

Hendricks said the glove is designed to delay and possibly to prevent the debilitating and painful joint destruction that occurs in millions of arthritis sufferers each year across the country. In the medical community the benefit of gold as an anti-inflammatory treatment for rheumatoid and other autoimmune arthritis has been established and used for many years, Hendricks said. Gold is given as an injection, which can be quite painful, very expensive, and imprecise, he said, but until now, there has been no available treatment using gold other than by injection.

I wanted to share a story that happened to my daughter a few weeks ago. I want people to know that there are children that are giving, caring and sharing.

We should all take note of this and become more like them.

I have to say (my biased opinion) that I have one of the most caring, loving and giving daughters that I know of.

A few months ago, Anna gave money to the Alabama relief fund through our church. She did this 100 percent on her own.

Money she had started saving to buy a horse someday. Not a lot of money to some but to her, it was every dollar she had saved.

Several weeks ago, at the grocery store, a man came to up to us, asking us for gas money.

He stated that he had come to the store for moving boxes and ran out of gas.

I had only change in my purse and gave that to him.

Anna said, “I have some money, mom. Gas is expensive.” She went into her purse and gave the man some money.

I was leaning into my car as she gave it to him and didn’t see how much it was. As I saw the man walk away, putting the money in his pocket, I noticed a store manager walking toward me. He was trying to stop the man.

The man who took the money walked faster, got into a car with someone waiting on him and drove away.

Needless to say, I did try to chase the car. I asked Anna how much she gave him. All that she had – $16.

I was very angry. Not for what this stranger did to me, but to a child. How could he? The

nerve of anyone taking money from a child.

I finally realized through a Laura Story song, “Blessings,” that sometimes our blessings come though bad situations.

This being one of them, I took this opportunity to let Anna and my son Grant (as he felt so bad for his sister, he offered to work to earn money for her) know that she did exactly what Jesus would have done.

She looked at the man through a child’s eyes and wanted to help him without judgment of what he looked like. So proud of her!

Again, it wouldn’t be much money to some but for her, it was, again, everything she had been saving, this time for riding pants then on to a horse.

I love what I learned from my Anna, but hated to see her suffer because of a liar and a thief.
