Stage 5: Oakley Cycling Star Mark Cavendish Claims Stage Victory at Tour de France, O Riders Dominate Top 10
Mark Cavendish just signaled his Tour de France arrival.
Oakley's star cyclist tallied his first stage win and his 16th overall career victory after slaying Stage 5 today in commanding fashion. Mark emerged from a hotly contested bunch sprint at the tail end of the stage – from Carhaix to Cap Frehel.
"I'm just passionate about my sport, I love to win and the team gave it everything today to make sure I could get to the line first," Mark said, rocking his Oakley performance eyewear. "There are a lot of difficult finishes this year and not so many bunch sprints, so I had to make sure I got this one, I had to be resilient."
He definitely displayed his boldness.
Topping Philippe Gilbert and fellow Oakley rider Jose Joaquin Rojas of Spain in the final stretch, he made it clear that he came to make some serious noise in the French countryside.
"On top of that I've had some difficult starts to the big Tours, that was only different in 2009, but that's just my character, not something to get obsessed with. We put every other race on the backfoot to be sure we're in top condition for the Tour and that paid off today, that's why we win."
The speed demon has now claimed 26 Grand Tour stage victories, including two stages at the Giro in 2011 and 67 wins on the road since turning pro in 2007. His team, Oakley-sponsored HTC-Highroad, has nabbed 41 victories this season alone, rendering the squad the most successful World Tour Team this year.
And Oakley's overall team is just as impressive right now at the Tour. Nine out of the Top 10 riders are rocking O's. Just how we like it.
Congrats to Mark for the stage win!

Colorado 14ers > Mount Evans > Climber's Log
Mount Evans Climber's Log
[ Sign the Climber's Log ]
|Route Climbed: Guanella Pass via Sawtooth Date Climbed: Sun August 24, 2003
|OK, so we got picked up in a car at the top of Mount Evans by a friend so we didn't get to descend, but summitting Bierstadt and then traversing the Sawtooth was still a pretty good challenge. Summitpost is right on about the route looking harder than it is. There were a couple challenging points just before you cross over to the other side of the ridge - but even these can be avoided if you don't mind downclimbing a bit more (you just have to make up that elevation in a trough-like couloir just before the rolling traverse to the other side). The ledges did get a little thin (2 feet in places) but I never felt uncomfortable or in any real danger. The hike to Evans from here was uneventful, but did offer some cool views of the Sawtooth from the 'other side'. Then a cloud descended upon us and robbed us of our summit view on Evans. Oh well, at least we made it! Fun trip, I'd highly recommend it for those looking for a nice taste of Class 3.

|Route Climbed: Road & 50-foot scramble Date Climbed: July 17, 2003
|My friend Super Kent and I drove to the summit parking lot. There was an electrical storm nearby. A ranger advised us to stay in our truck. But we scrambled the fifty feet or so to the true summit anyway(It was not mandatory, only advised to stay in vehicle). Once I neared the summit, I touched my hair and heard a "zzzzz" sound! I quickly ducked down lower. I had come too far not to touch the summit rock so I reached up and touched the top of the summit rock, and once again, I felt and heard an minor "zzzzz" sound! My friend and I quickly scrambled back down the slope amidst a couple of lightning flashes in the distance. Even though this summit was a drive-up, it was one of my most dangerous summits because of this experience.

|Route Climbed: Summit Lake to W-NW ledges to NW Ridge Date Climbed: Summer 1997
|Hiked & scrambled up to Mt. Evans' summit with my dad, from Summit Lake. Missed the start of the trail early on, so we had to improvise, & scrambled up some class 3 ledges before gaining the mellow slope leading to the summit. Along the way a mountain goat posed majestically for us (he was probably just waiting for us to piss to get his salt intake for the day). Also encountered some German engineers testing the then pre-production Audi TT in high altitude conditions, which was sort of cool (one of the few uses of that road). Of course also encountered the expected lazy flat-lander tourists on the summit who'd driven up. Another great day in the Rockies with my Pops.
Did the Snave route, starting at Echo Lake TH. Left at 7.02, summited at 11.48. While the car crowds at Summit Lake, & of course the summit, were staggering on this pre-Labor Day Sunday, I encountered very few on the way up from Echo Lake, & no-one from Summit Lake until I ran into the summit ridge. Beautiful area- the glacial cirques & nice granite are stunning! Fun route- fun scrambling leading up to the final couloir, & ~50' or so of enjoyable, albeit mungy, 4th.

|Route Climbed: West Ridge from Guanella Pass Date Climbed: July 25, 2003
|I HATE WILLOWS! I had a bad (translation- educational) experience with the neighborhood willows on a spring/snow climb on Bierstadt 2 years before from the same trailhead. But I must admit I would rather slog through the mud and the marsh than the snow and the postholing anyday. Lest I sound bitter- my thanks to those who built the bridges from the beginning of the trailhead. You were building them on a day when I first attempted an "easy" Bierstadt- only to be blown from my feet several times before I decided to try Bierstadt "another day"
Did Evans on a nice day and decided to bag Spalding also since I was "in the neighborhood." Evans was a fun climb. Had to get the tourists out of the way for the summit photo. Having fun now!
|Posted Jul 29, 2003 7:53 pm
|Route Climbed: North Slopes Date Climbed: July 24, 2003
|Parked the car on a switchback a few miles from the summit and slogged up the north slopes as an acclimatization hike for Longs. I saw a herd of mountain goats on the way. Choked on fumes as I crossed the parking lot for the last 30' to the summit, but otherwise a beautiful climb.
|Posted Jul 29, 2003 7:10 am
|Route Climbed: Summit Lake/Spalding Date Climbed: June 5, 2002
|Fun day of sun and wind. Howling wind on the "Mile in the Sky" made the easy hike a little more exciting. Had fun talking to gasoline climbers.

|Route Climbed: Mt. Evans Loop Date Climbed: July 17 2003
|A bit harder than it looks on paper, great way to spend a day.

|Beautiful day. Developing dark clouds shortened our lunch break although they never did anything more than threaten. The route was exactly as described on this page.
|Posted Jul 17, 2003 7:29 pm
|Route Climbed: Summit Ridge, Grade I, Class 2 Date Climbed: July 12, 2003
|I met up with my girlfriend in Denver for a little climbing. We decided to bag Evans as well as Mount Spalding via the Summit Ridge Route (Grade I, Class 2) from Summit Lake on the Mt. Evans Road. Obviously, we did not obey the 14'er 3000' foot rule on this climb, but taking the ridge line and bagging two peaks compensated in our efforts for lack of gain on the climb. I highly recommend this route as it affords gorgeous views and solitude sticking with class 2 climbing. The ridge from Summit Lake looks Class 3 but it is in fact Class 2 with a surprisingly well marked path. We left our vehicle at 10:00 AM and started up Spalding's flanks. Spalding's summit came quickly at around ~11:15 AM or so. We rounded the ridge line on to Mt Evans and made the summit around 1:30 PM. Our descent was down the scree slopes of Evans (normal route) and took another hour and half down to put us back to the car at around 3:00 PM. We summited both Spalding and Evans on Saturday, July 12, 2003.
|Posted Jul 14, 2003 10:26 am
|Route Climbed: Sawtooth Ridge to West Ridge Date Climbed: July 9, 2003
|Great climb as usual. My wife and I found as many goats as car driving tourist on the summit. No snow but plenty of bushwacking through the willows getting back to Guanella Pass.
|Posted Jul 9, 2003 4:28 pm
|Route Climbed: Mt. Evans loop Date Climbed: August 2001
|Yes, we walked up the last bit of road. Nice day though.
|Posted May 28, 2003 7:28 pm
|Route Climbed: Summit lake Date Climbed: May 24 2003
|Would have been a great climb if it wasnt for the hail and snow storm.
|Posted May 24, 2003 8:43 pm
|Route Climbed: Guanella Pass road Date Climbed: May 18, 2003
|Skinned most of the way up Mt Spalding and then climbed to the summit of Spalding. Then hiked to the summit of evans and teleskied back to the car from the saddle of Evans and Spalding. This was quite a long day (about 11 hours) and an excellant workout.
|Posted May 18, 2003 9:11 pm
|Route Climbed: Summit Ridge from Summit Lake
Date Climbed: Jun 8, 2002
|Fun route from the lake and I got Mt. Spalding too.
|Posted Mar 3, 2003 3:44 pm
|Route Climbed: Summit Lake Date Climbed: September 1, 2002
|A cold and windy day when we got out of the car, we got out of the wind for parts of the trip. It was a great way to start a long Labor day weekend. On the way down we saw some mountain goats which made the trip even more special. I would climb Evans again. I had made one attempt across the sawtooth from Bierstadt but didn't get there due to weather. Would like to try that route again.

|Route Climbed: North couloir from Summit Lake Date Climbed: July 24 2002
|Flew in from sea level last night. I meant to traverse some grassy ledges that I saw from Summit Lake traversing up to the left across a buttress to the right of the couloir, but got stuck on a ledge after climbing about 30 ft. of 60 degree slabs that seemed easy going up. Somebody was there before because there was a 20 ft. piece of twin rope jammed into the rocks, but not long enough to downclimb even if I did have any gear. After thinking a long time, I wrapped the rope around my wrist (better than no protection, but not much) and made a scary traverse across a gap with a low roof and awkward holds and back down to the relative safety of the loose scree and talus, which I took to the ridge just west of the summit. Yeah, I know it's easier to drive there.
|Posted Jul 27, 2002 8:33 am
|Route Climbed: Sawtooth Ridge from Bierstadt Date Climbed: June 21, 2002
|I summitted Bierstadt from Guanella Pass first and then around 10 am traversed the Sawtooth ridge toward Evans. The class 3 ridge takes quite a bit out of you, but I have to believe that going this direction is a lot easier than the other way around since you are climbing up the steepest parts of the ridge. There were a couple of scary spots, but nothing to worry too much about. The long trek from just past the Sawtooth toward Evans is a killer though. Long and demoralizing. On top of that, the weather started to turn windy and cold.
Made summit of Evans by 13:20. By then, the wind is really howling, and I had to put on all my cold weather gear. It was disheartening to see all those energetic tourists driving around the peak in their shiny SUVs, and even more tempting to hitch a ride down with one of them! Had I not come from Bierstadt, I probably would have tried.
Hiking back, I decided not to tackle the Sawtooth again. Instead, I went straight after the saddle and took an alternate route down and across the Willows. Mistake! The Willows sucks all energy out of you. In places, the plants were taller than me and so thick, I had to raise my arms and force my way through using my body. Millions of aphids flying around, I probably inhaled at least 20. The marsh beneath my feet was soggy and soaked my shoes, not to mention made me weary of quicksand. I had to use the branches of the willows that I displaced as "stepping stones" to keep from sinking. Took me about 2 hours to get out of the Willows. Fortunately, I can see the top of Guanella Pass most of the time. Otherwise I would have gotten lost for sure.
So take my advice, if you decide to do what I did, go back on the Sawtooth. It may be steep, but it'll save you a lot of time and trouble in the long run!

President (or Senator) Dobbs?
by Jason Rosenberg, Thu Nov 19, 2009 at 03:33:15 PM EST
Speculations as to what Lou Dobbs would do next were abound when the CNN host suddenly announced his resignation from the network. Was he going to Fox News? Was he going to run for office? Well, it looks like Lou is suggesting that he is thinking about running for office. In this Reuters story, Dobbs doesn't say that he is or isn't running for office, but he "ruling nothing out. ... I have come to no conclusions and no decisions,"From Reuters:
PHOENIX (Reuters) - A week after abruptly quitting his longtime job as a CNN television news host and commentator, Lou Dobbs said on Thursday he is considering career options including possible runs for the White House or U.S. Senate.
"Right now I feel exhilaration at the wide range of choices before me as to what I do next," Dobbs, whose outspoken views on immigration and other topics often angered liberals, told Reuters in a telephone interview from New York on Thursday.
Dobbs, 64, a veteran CNN anchor who had become one of the most divisive figures in U.S. broadcast journalism, announced last Wednesday he was leaving CNN after spending the better part of 30 years at the 24-hour cable news network.
He still hosts a daily radio show.
With all the choices before him, this story does point out some of Dobbs' downside.
A Texas native, Dobbs has drawn fire from Latino leaders and civil rights groups for frequent on-air remarks about U.S. border control and immigration that critics saw as demonizing illegal immigrants.
He was also seen as lending credence to the "birther" conspiracy theory, whose adherents believe President Barack Obama's Hawaiian birth certificate was faked to hide a Kenyan birthplace that would make the first black U.S. president ineligible for his office.
Dobbs acknowledged his commentary also stirred friction with CNN executives.
Discussions with CNN/U.S. President Jonathan Klein made it clear Dobbs' style of combining news and opinion was untenable at the network, Dobbs said.
Then again, he may go back to television or play baseball or become a professional rodeo clown since he has a "wide range of choices before me as to what I do next."
What should Lou do next?

And knowing when and how to take your medicine will help ensur...
Emotions and Cardiac Health
Emotions and Cardiac Health Love, compassion, joy -- some of our most profound emotions are felt deep within our hearts. At the same time, some negative emotions can have a lasting physical effect on the heart, as well. Recent research shows a clear link between heart disease and certain stress-related emotions. "What science is finding is what our grandmothers knew all along: You really can die of a broken heart," says Christine Maguth Nezu, Ph.D., coauthor of The Emotional Wellness Way to Cardiac Heal...

Keep these tips in mind: Tell your providers the names and specialties of all your other health care providers. Although ...

Is an Ok mower, wasn't the quality I expected from Sears. I had a craftsman before and it lasted for over 10 years. The mower seams to be made of lower quality metal. The key mechanism is starting to come off only after 2 times. I don't like that the mower completely shuts down if you go in reverse with the mower deck turned on.

This mower is the worst ever it cuts the lawn on even with it's floating deck, can only cut at one level or you'll dig into the ground and there is nothing you can do about it cause sear and craftsmen tells you to bad you bought it so that's just the way it is never again will I buy from them I used to be a fan not no more the engine is made in China with the craftsmen name on it boy what a way to lie to the people what ever you do stay away from this mower.

Although it's a manual shift mower, it feels more like an automatic to me. You can go faster by adjusting speed lever while driving, but to go slower, you would have to depress/press the brake/clutch in, then slide lever to preferred lower speed. I find that speed level # 3 is the best speed and blade height #3 is the best blade height unless you have like 3ft tall grass, then one will want to move slow and use the highest deck height setting. I let my GF give the mower a try, and like a non driver, she headed straight for the mulch around the house, from there, full speed into tall grass and ran over some obvious tree branches, that I moved out the way on purpose. After the gas finally ran out( thank goodness), it took sometime to get mower started again once refueled. Mower did what I needed it to do and that's cut grass while carrying 214lbs on it's back, up and down my hilly yard. Mower withstood the Girl Friend so I would definitely buy another if needed. It's a good mower for the price and an entry level mower. Being that it's a 2014 model I feel all mowers should have tight turn, fuel injection, and easy seat adjust, non of which this mower has. Overall, mower rides nice and cuts very well so I would buy another.

We bought this to mow our summer home and the deck dropped first of all and the store owner repaired that. Now the engine seems to be losing lower and is smoking!

I'm telling you the truth, this tractor cut down five foot high grass and weeds and I mean really tough weeds that my weed eater could not handle without binding up! After the first cut I went back over the area again at the #2 level and now keep the grass at a manageable routine cutting! Don't waste your money on a more expensive tractor! Oh ant this tractor climbs a mean grade, I had to buy chains so the bike tires wouldn't slip and it went right up the hill!

The Daily Star
---- — Richard Karl Wakin
ENDICOTT — Richard Karl "Dickie" Wakin, 62, of Endicott and formerly of Oneonta, joined his dad in heaven on Sunday, July 28, 2013.
Dickie was born on Nov. 26, 1950, in Oneonta, the son of David S. and Jane L. (Haas) Wakin.
He was a member of St. Mary's Church.
Dickie loved fishing, swimming, baseball, basketball, hunting and bowling. He especially enjoyed coming home for dinners and having Lux cake. One of his greatest joys was admiring and holding his bibles; studying and touching the pictures. Dickie would ask, "Why did God make the world?" Now he can chat with God about that.
He is survived by his mother, Jane Wakin of Oneonta; his brothers, David Wakin and his wife, Karen of Delhi, Harold Wakin and his wife, Denise of Laurens and Michael Wakin of Oneonta; his sister, Virginia Lee and her husband, Richard of Oneonta. He is also survived by his 11 nieces and nephews; five cousins; and many dear friends.
Dickie was predeceased by his father, David and his niece, Amanda.
Dickie had a second family who cared for him over the past 30 years. While the list of names is endless, everyone on the staff at Broome Developmental in Binghamton and Governeurs Lane in Endicott are saints on earth.
Friends may call from 4 to 6 p.m. on Sunday, Aug. 4, at the Lester R. Grummons Funeral Home, 14 Grand St., Oneonta.
A funeral mass will be celebrated at 1 p.m. on Monday, Aug. 5, at St. Mary's Church, 39 Walnut St., Oneonta with the Rev. David Mickiewicz, pastor, officiating. Interment will follow in Mt. Calvary Cemetery, Emmons.
Condolences to the family may be made online by visiting www.grummonsfuneralhome.com.
Arrangements are by the Lester R. Grummons Funeral Home, Oneonta.

Looking for some remedies.
Could this be related to lupus, forgot to mention 2 weeks prior I had a very busy 2 weeks at work.
I don't know if it would be lupus related or not. I suppose with lupus, anything would be possible. I have periods of being light headed but it is only mild. Have you seen a ENT? I wonder if the fluid in your eustachian tube is off?
Hope you get some relief because being dizzy just plain sucks!
Back in 2003 I didn't know I had lupus. I went to the Drs they all thought it was stress related and checked for diabetes and thyroid and other things. Test turned out all ok. Then in 2009 I ended up going back cause I couldn't stand nausea and stomach problems I seemed to keep having. I found out I had a stomach infection and a bleeding ulcer. I ended up with Helicobacter pylori virus. I complained again about my issues I stated above...the clinic didn't know what was wrong with me and again told me it was probably stress related and due to me being over weight.
Finally in 2010 I was pregnant with m son and I got state insurance and got tested for all kinds of things under the sun....then I started to feel a little more sane and found out I was diagnosed with Lupus.
I would definitely keep asking around about it.
An ENT made the suggestion that I take an over-the-counter product marketed for dizziness, called Bonine/generic is meclizine (TM). She called these episodes which I got about 2 times a year, viral labrynthitis.
After about 3 years of the labrythitis and taking Bonine when I needed it, I no longer take it, nor do I have those episodes of dizziness which were so incapcitating and caused me to miss work.
Hope this helps.
Do you know the origin of your vertigo? Have you gotten a diagnosis yet? My friend hadf bouts of vertigo for years. The doctor prescrived physical therapy exercises which helped her finally get rid of "the dizzies!"
Please check in and let us know how you are doing!
What kind of physical therapy did this person do? What kind of doctor prescribed it? My family doctor and cardiologist have not done anything but suggested meds to try. I would be interested in physical therapy if it works and the dizziness goes away permanently. Sometimes just putting my head down brings it on. It is very aggravating and you never know when it is going to happen.
I have this and have had bad bouts of it that have landed me in the ER to get fluids and meds. But I found it can be related to my allergies. i have not had an episode since I started using my netty pot regularly. Something else that has cleared the vertigo up is, I go to the chiropractor and he aligns my back including my neck. It really works. But I totally understand how embarrassing it is to fall or to just get dizzy and have to grab onto something. It has been called benign positional vertigo, too. The test done for this is called an ENG ( I think it stands for electro nystagmis ?) and can be done in an ENT office by an audiologist.
I am sorry you are going through this. At the same time I am comforted that I am not the only one. Yes it is in our head, in the ear and or cervical vertebra. I hate that phrase, "its all in your head," I'm sorry you have to hear that.
Take care,
I understand this can be very embarassing. Last month I fell in my bedroom and landed on my right temple unto wood floor. I had to go go the er to make sure there was no internal bleeding. Due to prednisone you can imagine the bruise.
I do many of the proactive things mentioned. Most recently seeing a chiropractor which has been very helpful.
I guess my main point is there may be more than one thing going on which makes it even harder to discern. As others have said you are not alone. Hang in there and keep trying to figure out your major source of trouble. Lupus and the secondary autoimmune diseases cause a host of bizarre symtoms, as do some of the meds we take for them, you may want to check the side effects and interactions of your medications also.
The most common cause for vertigo is an inner ear infection- sometimes called viral labyrinthitis. Meclizine is a good drug to help with the symptoms. Since your symptoms are of new onset, it makes an inner ear infection more likely than a lupus related cause. Unfortunately, labyrinthitis can take several weeks to resolve and can recur. Usually a neurologist or ENT physician can prescribe specific vestibular therapy for resistant/persistant cases.
The longer the symptoms persist, we would need to consider an alternative diagnosis. However, if the symptoms worsen, you get hearing loss or you develop addtional neurological symptoms- tingling, numbness, facial weakness etc. you will need to seek urgent medical help to rule out more unusual causes.
Hope that helps you. All the best.
I had chronic bouts of Vertigo that started after I received a whiplash injury.....I was treated by a Neurologist for about ten years with anti-vertigo meds. Finally, my family doctor suggested that I see an ENT who he recommended. That was the best advice I ever had.
It took the ENT's nurse about ten minutes or less to fix my problem. Apparently, there are little crystal like stones in the semi-circular canals that control balance. These sometimes get out of whack and can cause vertigo and dizziness. Once this maneuver is performed, the stones are moved back into the proper position and VOILA, THE VERTIGO IS GONE. JUST LIKE THAT.....AFTER TEN YEARS.
Ask your family Doctor about this and perhaps he can recommend a Dr. who can perform this procedure for you. It was more than worth the few minutes it took to finally get my head back in proper order. All I can say is "wow" and why do not more Doctors know or recommend this easy approach to treating vertigo without the use of drugs?

760: Moria
Title text: Someone should really bring them a ladder and remind them to build the Endless Stair *first* next time.
[edit] Explanation
This is Randall's take on the story of Moria in the fantasy story Lord of the Rings. In the original the dwarves, hunting for the precious metal mithril dug so deep that they awoke a balrog — a fearsome demonic creature. However, in this version, they simply got stuck down into a mine.
However, Gandalf's final line may be a hint that the comic's version is closer to the original than it appears — in the story, the adventuring party discovers a journal of the last dwarves to occupy Moria. The last page starts ominously: "We cannot get out. We cannot get out." That memorable sentence is used again near the end of the page as the impending final orcish attack is described by the now-dead dwarves, and repeated by Gimli as they reflect on the terrible news, lending a much darker tone to the comic's punchline.
The title text suggests a mundane solution to their problem — a long ladder. The Endless stair was a very long staircase from the lowest dungeon up to the top of the mountain above Moria.
[edit] Transcript
- [A far shot of Gandalf the Grey and the four hobbits standing in a dark, underground city.]
- Gandalf: Behold, Khazad-Dum; the Dwarrowdelf; the mines of Moria -- once the greatest and mightiest city of the dwarves.
- [Full body shot of Gandalf.]
- Gandalf: But the dwarves delved too greedily.
- [Close-up on Gandalf.]
- Gandalf: And too deep.
- [Full shot of the hobbits and Gandalf.]
- Hobbit: ...and awoke a terror of shadow and flame?
- Gandalf: No. They couldn't get out.

North Carolina lawmakers will challenge their South Carolina counterparts to a game of hoops Wednesday evening at Reynolds Coliseum. The game is the first in four years between lawmakers from the two Carolinas.
Rep. Burt Jones, a Rockingham Republican who will coach the North Carolina squad, helped revive the tradition. "The games in the past were pretty competitive," he said.
The team includes big men Jeff Collins, a Rocky Mount Republican, and Chris Millis, a Hampstead Republican. Collins played with UNC great Phil Ford in high school, Jones said. "They are pretty good for being legislators," he said.
The scouting report for the North Carolina team: a deep bench and desire to win, Jones said, will need to overcome the fact that "some of us are old and out of shape."
The JV squad – composed of lobbyists who work the N.C. legislative halls – plays at 5 p.m. Lawmakers take the court at 6:30 p.m. The event is free but volunteers will accept nonperishable food and cash donations. Rep. Jacqueline Schaffer, a Charlotte Republican, will sing the national anthem, and other female lawmakers will cheer on the team. The North Carolina lawmakers are wearing gold "NCGA" jerseys.
New mental health director
Dave Richard, executive director of the ARC of North Carolina, will be the next director of mental health, developmental disabilities and substance abuse services at the state Department of Health and Human Services.
He replaces acting director Jim Jarrard.
Richard has been at the ARC of N.C. for nearly 25 years. He starts his new job May 28.
"His extensive expertise in program implementation, public education, government affairs, and his deep understanding of individual and community needs will help us improve customer service as we seek to help every North Carolinian fulfill their potential," DHHS Secretary Aldona Wos said in a statement.
As ARC executive director, Richard was an outspoken critic of the Medicaid managed care system for mental health that now governs payments and treatment.
He said recently that he liked the plan for the statewide Medicaid waiver that Gov. Pat McCrory's administration is pursuing.
Little support for tax plans
Only one in 10 North Carolina voters support a sales tax on groceries, according to a new Public Policy Polling survey, and many appear uninterested in the House and Senate tax plans.
The Senate tax plan would levy a 6.5 percent state and local sales tax on food – 14 years after state lawmakers repealed it. Local governments currently can tax food at 2 percent but the state doesn't receive the revenue.
The Democratic firm's poll of North Carolina voters found that 81 percent oppose the Senate's idea and 9 percent are undecided. The House tax plan doesn't touch the food tax.
Asked if they support the Senate's tax plan (without description of what it did), 44 percent opposed the plan and 42 percent were undecided. Only 14 percent support it. Likewise, the House plan – which debuted Thursday – fared about the same with just 11 percent supportive and 41 percent opposed. An additional 48 percent were undecided.
The numbers echo anecdotal interviews with numerous taxpayers about the tax overhaul that found widespread concerns, even among those who would save money. Together, they illustrate the persuasion campaign state lawmakers may need to convince a skeptical public.

Corsicana Daily Sun
Corsicana —
The Corsicana Tigers and Waxahachie Indians battled in a typical matchup for these two old rivals. The Tigers called on freshman Trevor Nolen to come back with two days rest after starting Game 1 on Wednesday and gave a gutsy performance as he pitched 3 2/3 innnings and gave up only one run on a hit by a solo home run to Sammy Ernst.
Waxahachie got six strong innings from starter David Martinelli, a DBU signee and rallied to beat the Tigers 6-3 in Game 3 of a Region II-4A bi-district playoff series. The Indians won the series 2-1 and will play McKinney North next.
Nolen gave up his one run in the second inning on the shot by Ernst, his second home run of the series.
Nolen pitched out of what looked like sure trouble in the third as the bases were loaded after back-to-back walks and a fielder's choice by Martinelli where Nolen attempted to get the out at third and the runner beat the throw.
With the bases loaded and no outs John Castellanos hit a fly ball to center field that looked to be enough to score the runner from third. However, the courtesy runner failed to tag up and was doubled off at third for two outs and Nolen then struck out No. 3 hitter David Villareal to end the threat.
Nolen was relieved with two outs in the fourth inning by sophomore DJ Minnear with runners at first and second. Taylor Bright hit line shot toward first basemen Bobby Lopez who timed his leap perfectly to snag the third out and get out of trouble.
After being held without a hit for three innings, the Tigers got off to a quick start in the fourth with a leadoff double by Hunter Denbow. Zane Otten followed with an RBI single to tie the game at one.
The Tigers loaded the bases with one out with back to back walks by Nolen and Zack Rash. Otten was forced out at home on a fielders choice by Aaron Cantu. Martinelli then hit Layton Wolver and Brady Harlan to force in two runs. The Tigers took a 3 1 lead into the fourth inning.
Minniear came out for the fifth inning and walked the lead off hitter which was followed by infield hit by Martinelli. He then got a strikeout of Castellanos for the first out. Villareal hit a line drive up the middle and Medlock came home from second base and Otten a perfect one hop throw to Rash at the plate. It appeared that Rash blocked the plate and made the tag in time for the out but the home plate umpire called the runner safe.
This turned out to be a huge call in the game as later the Tigers had a throwing error by third baseman Holden Grounds that allowed the go ahead run to score also to give the Indians a 4-3 lead.
The Tigers allowed two more runs in the sixth with a home run by Taylor Bright and an inside-the-park home run by Martinelli. Aaron Cantu came on to get out of the sixth inning and scoreless in the seventh.
The Tigers mounted one last rally in the seventh when Holden Grounds had a one-out double while Denbow followed with a walk and Otten followed with his third hit of the day to load the bases. The Indians ended the game with a perfectly executed double play.
Heath Autrey's team finished with a record of 26-8 and a co-district championship. Coach Autrey said,"I was proud of the way we battled today, we never quit and gave a great effort."
Waxahachie 6, Corsicana 3
Waxahachie 010 032 0 -- 6 6 1
Corsicana 000 300 0 -- 3 5 2

The Titans answered with three in the bottom of the first before the Crusaders tied the game in the third. Reinke singled and moved to second on Constien's sacrifice bunt. Tana Barnes (Washington, Ill./Washington H.S.) singled Reinke home. Barnes then stole second and scored on Bridget Schwoegler's (Chesterton, Ind./Chesterton H.S.0 single.

|Near East
|another term for the Middle East
|(formerly) the Balkan States and the area of the Ottoman Empire
A region in western Asia and northeastern Africa, often considered the same as the Middle East.
near east
usually the lands around the eastern shores of the Mediterranean Sea, including northeastern Africa, southwestern Asia, and, occasionally, the Balkan Peninsula. The term Near East was used by the first modern Western geographers to refer to the nearer part of the Orient, a region roughly coextensive with the Ottoman Empire. Since World War II, the name has been largely supplanted by Middle East (q.v.), though frequently they are used interchangeably.
