Burlington city councilmen want to gather input from other municipalities that may wish to be involved from the get-go before moving forward on a bus system in the city.
During a work session Monday night, Transportation Planning Manager Mike Nunn brought figures from the city's 2006 survey and 2010 census data, an example of an existing fixed-route system in a city comparable to Burlington, and funding options for city councilmen to review, as requested at April's work session.
Based on the 2006 survey, which was sent in Burlington water bills to 20,000 customers, 71 percent of respondents were between 45 and 65 and older, and 25 percent of households with people older than age 16 don't have cars or driving licenses.
According to 2010 census results, 55 percent of Burlington's population are in the education and health care, manufacturing and retail trade employment sectors, which creates a large portion of the system's expected ridership, Nunn said.
He also reminded councilmen that the "Section 5307," federal grant provides 90 percent of all start-up costs for a public transit system, and a $5 Municipal Vehicle Registration fee could be used to help fund the city's transportation system. Currently, 40,987 vehicles are registered in Burlington, which would yield $204,935 if the city implemented the tax, Nunn said.
The Concord/Kannapolis bus system, which Nunn helped begin, was used as a funding example, since Concord's tax rate and population are similar to Burlington's. Begun in fiscal year 2004-05, Concord spent $225,000 from its general fund, plus $175,000 from the $5 Municipal Vehicle Registration fee.
Concord's general fund transfers for fiscal year 2013-14 were greatly increased to $576,042, with $310,000 from the Municipal Vehicle Registration fee — but Nunn said those monetary increases were due to service expansions, including hybrid fleet replacements and weekend service additions, the city deemed important.
Nunn said for Burlington, "Just like everything else, it'll be an annual decision," where and whether to expand services, and that every municipality has different needs.
The concern about how citizens would react to seeing "empty buses" on the street was raised. According to the 2006 survey responses, 39 percent said they wouldn't use the bus each week, and 20 percent said they'd never use the bus.
Councilman Celo Faucette said, "Those numbers are troubling to me." Nunn said, "That's pretty typical of transit operations," and that there will always be a population within the city that won't opt to use the system.
"Quite honestly … you would hope that there are that many that wouldn't need it" because there wouldn't be room on the 28-passenger buses, said Councilman Jim Butler.
Wall said if Burlington went ahead with the system they'd have two things to "stomach": empty buses and the fact that the system would be a "loser," in that it won't be making the city any money.
"Parks and Rec could be a loser from that standpoint, but it's a winner for the city," said Butler. "There are recreation fields that are empty. There are police cars that are empty," he said, adding that it's the nature of the services.
Nunn presented a five-route system as a possible template, but said the details — like timing the routes, naming and assigning colors to them, and addressing complaints, comments and compliments — would fall to a Transit Advisory Commisison, a public body consisting of elected officials and technical staff.
Before forming that commission, Mayor Ronnie Wall said Burlington should send the 2006 survey out to members of other municipalities to see if there's interest in expanding the route to include Mebane, Elon, Graham and Gibsonville.
"We're kicking the can down the road in regards to more studies," Butler said.
"I'm trying to get my hand around what's productive," said Wall.
"We're not going to be helping any of our neighbors" if Burlington sets up the bus system just within city limits. "I still think we need to let other municipalities in on the ground floor," said Wall. Councilman Bob Ward said he, too, wanted input from other municipalities before planning the system.
Mayor Pro Tem David Huffman said he agreed with Butler and said, "I think we need to be very careful as we expand into new areas," and that doing so would mean a whole new service area. Huffman said Burlington should structure the bus system to meet the needs of those who need it the most, mainly those below the poverty line and in the education, health care, manufacturing and retail employment areas.
City Manager Harold Owen said he will begin contacting the other municipalities to see if they want in on the bus system. Faucette said the next time public transit comes up, he wants to see that all of the municipalities have given their input.
"I want to see something happen now," Faucette said. "Either we're going to do it, or we're not going to do it."

What is my nervous system and what does it do?
Print Section (PDF, 213 KB)*
Your nervous system carries signals between your brain and other parts of your body through your spinal cord. Nerves are bundles of special tissues that transmit these signals.
The signals share information between your brain and body about how things feel. The signals also send information between your brain and body to control automatic body functions, such as breathing and digestion, and to move your body parts.
The nerves in your spinal cord branch out to all of your organs and body parts. All your nerves together make up your nervous system.
Your nervous system is composed of the
- central nervous system—your brain and spinal cord
- cranial* nerves—nerves that connect your brain to your head, neck, and face
- peripheral nervous system—nerves that connect your spinal cord to your entire body, including your organs and your arms, hands, legs, and feet
*See the Pronunciation Guide for tips on how to say the the words in bold type.
How can diabetes affect my nervous system?
Print Section (PDF, 155 KB)*
Over time, too much fat and glucose, also called sugar, in your blood from diabetes can damage your nerves. High blood glucose also can damage the small blood vessels that nourish your nerves with oxygen and nutrients. Without enough oxygen and nutrients, nerves cannot function well. Damaged nerves may stop sending signals, or they may send signals too slowly or at the wrong times.
Nerve damage from diabetes is called diabetic neuropathy.
If you have diabetes, you can develop nerve damage at any time; however, you are more likely to have it the older you are and the longer you have diabetes. Nerve damage is also more likely if you
- have high cholesterol and blood fat
- have high blood pressure
- are overweight
- have kidney disease
- smoke
- drink too many alcoholic beverages
What are the symptoms of nerve damage?
Print Section (PDF, 160 KB)*
Nerve damage symptoms depend on which nerves have damage. Some people have no symptoms or mild symptoms. Other people have painful and long-lasting symptoms. As most nerve damage develops over many years, a person may not notice mild cases for a long time. In some people, the onset of pain may be sudden and severe.
What are the types of nerve damage from diabetes?
Print Section (PDF, 733 KB)*
Peripheral Neuropathy
Peripheral neuropathy is the most common type of diabetic neuropathy, and it affects the sensory nerves of your feet, legs, hands, and arms. These areas of your body may feel
- numb
- weak
- cold
- burning or tingling, like "pins and needles"
You may feel extreme pain in these areas of your body, even when they are touched lightly. You also may feel pain in your legs and feet when walking.
These feelings are often worse at night and can make it hard to sleep. Most of the time, you will have these feelings on both sides of your body, such as in both feet; however, they can occur just on one side.
You might have other problems, such as
- swollen feet
- loss of balance
- loss of muscle tone in your hands and feet
- a deformity or shape change in your toes and feet
- calluses or open sores on your feet
Autonomic Neuropathy
Autonomic neuropathy can affect your
- digestive system
- sex organs
- bladder
- sweat glands
- eyes
- heart rate and blood pressure
- ability to sense low blood glucose
Digestive system. Damage to nerves in your stomach, intestines, and other parts of your digestive system may
- make it hard to swallow both solid food and liquids
- cause stomach pain, nausea, vomiting, constipation, or diarrhea
- make it hard to keep your blood glucose under control
Your doctor or dietitian may advise you to eat smaller, more frequent meals; avoid fatty foods; and eat less fiber.
Sex organs. Damage to nerves in the sex organs may
- prevent a man's penis from getting firm when he wants to have sex, called erectile dysfunction or impotence. Many men who have had diabetes for several years have impotence.
- prevent a woman's vagina from getting wet when she wants to have sex. A woman might also have less feeling around her vagina.
Bladder. Damage to nerves in your bladder may make it hard to know when you need to urinate and when your bladder is empty. This damage can cause you to hold urine for too long, which can lead to bladder infections. You also might leak drops of urine.
Sweat glands. Damage to nerves in your sweat glands may prevent them from working properly. Nerve damage can cause you to sweat a lot at night or while eating.
Eyes. Damage to nerves in your pupils, the parts of your eyes that react to changes in light and darkness, may make them slow to respond to these changes. You may have trouble seeing the lights of other cars when driving at night. Your eyes may take longer to adjust when you enter a dark room.
Heart rate and blood pressure. Damage to nerves that control your heart rate and blood pressure may make these nerves respond more slowly to changes in position, stress, physical activity, sleep, and breathing patterns. You might feel dizzy or pass out when you go from lying down to standing up or when you do physical activity. You also might have shortness of breath or swelling in your feet.
Ability to sense low blood glucose. Autonomic nerves also let you know when your blood glucose is low. Damage to these nerves can prevent you from feeling the symptoms of low blood glucose, also called hypoglycemia. This kind of nerve damage is more likely to happen if you have had diabetes for a long time or if your blood glucose has often been too low. Low blood glucose can make you
- hungry
- dizzy or shaky
- confused
- pale
- sweat more
- weak
- anxious or cranky
- have headaches
- have a fast heartbeat
Severe hypoglycemia can cause you to pass out. If that happens, you'll need help bringing your blood glucose level back to normal. Your health care team can teach your family members and friends how to give you an injection of glucagon, a hormone that raises blood glucose levels quickly. If glucagon is not available, someone should call 911 to get you to the nearest emergency room for treatment.
Consider wearing a diabetes medical alert identification bracelet or necklace. If you have hypoglycemia and are not able to communicate, the emergency team will know you have diabetes and get you the proper treatment. You can find these bracelets or necklaces at your pharmacy or on the Internet. You can also ask your doctor for information on available products.
Other Neuropathies
Other types of neuropathies from diabetes can cause
- damage to the joint and bones of your foot, called Charcot's foot, in which you cannot sense pain or the position of your foot
- carpal tunnel syndrome, in which a nerve in your forearm is compressed at your wrist, causing numbness, swelling, and pain in your fingers
- paralysis on one side of your face, called Bell's palsy
- double vision or not being able to focus your eyes
- aching behind one eye
How will I know if I have nerve damage?
Print Section (PDF, 263 KB)*
Your doctor can tell whether you have nerve damage by asking about your symptoms and checking your
- blood pressure
- heart rate
- muscle strength
- reflexes
- response to vibrations and changes in temperature
- feet
Your doctor also may check
- your response to light touch on your feet with a soft nylon string, called a monofilament test
- how well your muscles respond to electrical signals by ordering a test called an electromyogram (EMG)
- how well and how fast your nerves can send electrical signals by ordering a test called a nerve conduction velocity test
- how your heart rate responds to deep breathing
- how your blood pressure responds when you go from lying down to sitting or standing
- whether your organs look healthy by ordering a test called an ultrasound
Tell your doctor if you have one or more symptoms of nerve damage.
How does nerve damage affect my feet?
Print Section (PDF, 208 KB)*
The nerves to your feet are the longest in your body and are the most affected by nerve damage. If you have damage to these nerves, you may not feel pain, heat, or cold in your legs and feet. You might not notice sores or injuries, which can become infected. If you have any sores on your feet, see your doctor right away. Prompt attention to any sore or infection on your toe or foot can prevent more serious problems with your toes, feet, or parts of your legs.
Remind your doctor to check your feet at every office visit. See your doctor at least once a year for a foot exam, or more often if you have foot problems.
Check your feet every day for problems. If you have problems with your feet, your doctor may send you to a foot doctor, called a podiatrist.

How does smoking affect my diabetes and nervous system?
Print Section (PDF, 222 KB)*
Smoking can narrow and harden the blood vessels that nourish your nerves with oxygen and nutrients.
Smoking and diabetes are a dangerous mix. Smoking raises your risk for many diabetes problems. If you quit smoking,
- you will lower your risk for heart attack, stroke, nerve disease, kidney disease, and amputation
- your cholesterol and blood pressure levels might improve
- your blood circulation will improve
If you smoke, stop smoking. Ask for help so that you don't have to do it alone. You can start by calling 1–800–QUITNOW or 1–800–784–8669.
What is the treatment for nerve damage from diabetes?
Print Section (PDF, 155 KB)*
The treatment for nerve damage from diabetes is based on your symptoms. No treatment can reverse nerve damage; however, it can help you feel better. Your doctor might suggest taking low doses of medicines that both treat other health problems and help the pain of neuropathy. Some of these medicines include
- antidepressants
- anticonvulsants, or anti-seizure medicines
Other treatment options include
- creams or patches on your skin for burning pain
- over-the-counter pain medicines
- acupuncture, a form of pain treatment that uses needles inserted into your body at certain pressure points
- physical therapy, which helps with muscle weakness and loss of balance
- relaxation exercises, such as yoga
- special shoes to fit softly around sore feet or feet that have changed shape
Your doctor also can prescribe medicines to help with problems caused by nerve damage in other areas of your body, such as poor digestion, dizziness, sexual problems, and lack of bladder control.
Stopping smoking and drinking alcoholic beverages also may help with symptoms.
How can I keep my nervous system healthy?
Print Section (PDF, 152 KB)*
You can keep your nervous system healthy by taking these steps:
- Keep your blood glucose numbers as close to your target as possible. If you already have nerve damage, doing so will help you prevent more nerve damage and may decrease pain or other symptoms. Your doctor will work with you to set your target blood glucose numbers and teach you what to do if your numbers are too high or too low.
- Be physically active and take your diabetes medicines, as advised by your doctor.
- If you smoke, stop smoking.
- Tell your doctor right away about any problems you have with
- your hands, arms, feet, or legs
- your stomach, bowels, or bladder
- having sex
- knowing when your blood glucose is too low
- feeling dizzy when you go from lying down to sitting or standing
- Take care of your feet.
- Remind your doctor to check your feet at every office visit. See your doctor at least once a year for a foot exam, or more often if you have foot problems.
Eating, Diet, and Nutrition
Print Section (PDF, 153 KB)*
You can keep your nervous system healthy by taking these steps:
- Eat healthy meals and follow the meal plan that you and your doctor or dietitian have worked out.
- If you drink alcoholic beverages, limit your intake to no more than one drink per day for women and two drinks per day for men. Drinking too many alcoholic beverages can make nerve damage worse.

Seattle Seahawks (2-2) at Carolina Panthers (1-3)
LAST WEEK: Seattle — Lost 19-13 at St. Louis. Carolina — Lost 30-28 at Atlanta.
RANKINGS AMONG NFL (Through Oct. 1): Seattle offense — 29th overall, 6th rushing, 32nd passing. Seattle defense — 2nd overall, 2nd rushing, 9th-tie passing. Carolina offense — 13th overall, 11th rushing, 14th passing. Carolina defense — 24th overall, 25th rushing, 22nd passing.
BY THE NUMBERS: 6-1 — The Panthers all-time record under Ron Rivera in games in which they have 30 or more carries, with the loss coming in last week's 30-28 heartbreaker in Atlanta.
PANTHERS OFFENSIVE GAME PLAN: After running for 199 yards and getting production from several players last week, some think the Panthers' running game is showing signs of getting untracked. It'll need to against the 2nd-best run defense in the NFL through four weeks. Also, Cam Newton avoided a pass interception for the ninth game of his 20-game career last week. And even with the defeat, Carolina's record is 7-2 in those contests.
PANTHERS DEFENSIVE GAME PLAN: Much of the story with the Seahawks this season has been about rookie quarterback Russell Wilson. And while the Panthers admitted Wilson was high on their draft board last April, the player who has gotten Carolina's attention most is running back Marshawn Lynch. Lynch leads the NFL in rushing with 423 yards. And while Wilson has struggled — he has the No. 27 QB rating in the league — he has completed some huge 4th-quarter passes.
* Cam Newton against himself. The second-year Carolina quarterback complained to the media Wednesday that it was "lose, lose" for him because he's criticized for taking losses too hard and is certain he'd be criticized if he "laughed and joked" in the locker room after losses. Finding a balanced approach in emotions is needed and there's little doubt Panthers management, staff and players are trying to help Newton find that balance.
* Cam Newton against himself. The second-year Carolina quarterback complained to the media Wednesday that it was "lose, lose" for him because he's criticized for taking losses too hard and is certain he'd be criticized if he "laughed and joked" in the locker room after losses. Finding a balanced approach in emotions is needed and there's little doubt Panthers management, staff and players are trying to help Newton find that balance.
* The Panthers' pass rush against a rookie quarterback. With seven quarterback sacks last week, there's strong indication Carolina's pass rush is emerging as one of the league's best. That's usually a huge challenge for a rookie quarterback, even a mobile, athletic one like Wilson, who has been sacked eight times in Seattle's first four games.
* Wilson against an embattled secondary. While rookie Josh Norman has been solid for the Panthers at one cornerback position, the other cornerback Chris Gamble (shoulder) will be out today and Captain Munnerlyn will remain the starting safety. Luke Kuechly will likely move to middle linebacker if Jon Beason cannot play today. Center Geoff Hangartner is questionable while defensive ends Frank Alexander and DE Antwan Applewhite are probable.
* Seattle's special teams against Carolina's special teams. A year ago, the Panthers struggled mightily, but have shown improvement this season. The Seahawks are tops in the league in kickoff field position — both on offense and defense. Seattle has a league-leading average starting position at the 27.8 yard line off kickoffs and a league-leading starting position of the 18.8 yard line for its opponents off kickoffs.
NOTABLE: Sunday's matchup is the first between the teams since Panthers' 13-10 win in Charlotte in December 2007. Most fans of the two teams probably remember the 2005 NFC championship as the most prominent meeting between the two; Seattle routed the Panthers 34-14 to wrap up the Seahawks' only Super Bowl appearance in franchise history.
* Did you realize third-year Seattle head coach Pete Carroll once coached in the ACC? Carroll did, spending three seasons as defensive coordinator and secondary coach at N.C. State from 1980-82 under head coach Monte Kiffin.
* In addition to Wilson, two other Seahawks played at N.C. State — kicker Steven Hauschka and offensive guard J.R. Sweezy. Sweezy, who is from Mooresville, is an interesting story. A defensive lineman for the Wolfpack, he was a seventh-round pick as an offensive lineman — or a position he hadn't played since he was in middle school.
* Panthers coach Ron Rivera said Wednesday that Wilson "was somebody we liked" in pre-draft workouts and that Wilson went about where his team expected. When Wilson came to Charlotte for his pre-draft visit, he met with Panthers quarterback coach Mike Shula. Shula had recruited Wilson when he was Alabama coach.
* Carolina is tied for second in the league for "big" offensive plays — or plays that gain 20 or more yards. The Panthers have 23 "big" plays, which ties them with the Giants and leaves them three behind the Ravens. Newton has accounted for 21 of the 23 "big" plays — 19 on passes and two on runs.
PREDICTION: Carolina 23, Seattle 14. Panthers may be frustrated with field goals instead of TDs against the highly-rated Seahawks' defense. But expect Newton and the Panthers to bounce back against a Seahawk team whose offense has sputtered with a rookie QB. (Gazette's record to date: 2-2)

Women's Tennis Finishes Just Outside Top-3 in Preseason Coaches Poll
February 1, 2011
HIGH POINT, N.C. - Erskine College has maintained the top spot in the womens tennis preseason poll as voted on by league head coaches for the sixth consecutive season. The Flying Fleet returns five players from last seasons squad that went 17-8 overall, finished second in the conference regular season, and won the Conference Carolinas Tournament Championship for the sixth consecutive time. Last season was the first time in five years that Erskine did not win the regular season championship. Queens University defeated the Fleet 5-4, giving Erskine just their second conference loss in five years (75-2). Pfeiffer finished just outside the top three in the fourth spot.
Erskine returns their top five singles players that include three All-Conference members in junior Tessa Rheault, senior Britton Bignon, and sophomore Abby OReilly. Rheault is the Fleets top returning player and the reigning Conference Carolinas Player of the Year. Team captain Britton Bignon is a three time All-Conference honoree at the No. 2 singles spot, while sophomore Abby OReilly won the Conference Freshman of the Year award last season playing in the No. 3 singles position. In addition, Victoria Stephens and Nikki Miller will be joined by three outstanding freshmen in Corin Hallman, Kathryn Sailors, and April Horne to give Coach Calhoun Parr perhaps his deepest squad in his eleven year tenure.
Queens University of Charlotte finished the 2010 season with a 20-2 overall record and an 8-0 conference record to earn the Conference Carolinas regular season title. Falling to Erskine in the conference tournament championship, the Royals avenged the loss by defeating the Flying Fleet in the opening round of the NCAA Tournament before falling to eventual champion and Southeast Region rival Armstrong Atlantic State.
Individually, First Team All-Conference member Elena Mileva and freshman Christina Rustscheff will be looked on to anchor the first and second flights. The Royals also return All-Conference Third Teamer Morgan Roberts along with Erin Williams, who combined for a doubles record of 38-11 in 2010. Royals head coach Brett Karpman is eager to begin the season and build off last years success.
Lees-McRae College capped a solid 2010 campaign with a semifinal finish in the Conference Carolinas Tournament, falling to eventual champion Erskine College after earning the third seed with an 8-2 record against league opponents during the regular season. The Bobcats posted a 13-8 overall record on the season, as Christine Vanard was named to the All-Conference Carolinas First Team.
Its hard to predict how the conference will play out this year, said head coach Keith Turner. A lot of teams, including ours, have lost key players from last years teams. Senior Christine Vanard is going to play a huge role for us this coming year. As one of the best players in the conference, we will need Christine to help get us out to quick starts in the singles and doubles matches. We have three new players in the lineup this year, and we will just have to see if they are up for the challenge.
Rounding out the Coaches Preseason Poll 4-10 are: Pfeiffer, Mount Olive, Limestone, Coker, Barton, Converse, and Belmont Abbey respectively.

Lions CEO Ruben Moggee confirmed that Elton Jantjies and Jaco Taute are expected to finalise loan deals with the Stormers this week.
Flyhalf Jantjies has been linked with the Stormers and Sharks for the past month. Springbok and Lions team-mate Jaco Taute has also been approached by other South African franchises, including the Stormers, Sharks and Bulls.
However, Moggee confirmed to this site that both players are expected to join the Stormers squad on loan during the 2013 Super Rugby campaign.
'Things should be finalised this week,' Moggee told keo.co.za. 'We are currently discussing terms with the agents and Stormers.'
Jantjies is set to gain a starting berth with the Stormers during the opening rounds of Super Rugby next year.
WP pivot Demetri Catrakilis has signed a two-year contract with the Southern Kings, while Kurt Coleman and Gary van Aswegen are recovering from injuries. Senior flyhalf Peter Grant will join the squad at a late stage next year because of his club commitments with the Kobe Steelers in Japan.
Although Taute has started at outside centre for the Springboks, he is likely to compete for a spot at fullback considering the Stormers' midfield depth, which includes Jean de Villiers, Juan de Jongh, Marcel Brache and JP du Plessis.
Meanwhile, Moggee also confirmed that suspended head coach John Mitchell's disciplinary hearing has not been settled yet. The matter is expected to be resolved early this week.

Born in rural Bakenberg, South Africa in 1975 and now based in Amsterdam, internationally acclaimed artist Moshekwa Langa uses everyday objects and organic materials to create whimsical, map-like collages and imaginary landscapes that link disparate things.
Immersive and topographical, Langa's poetic installations emerge from his intimate connections to people and places, often lost or left behind. Though free of distinct destinations, they are navigable terrains, adeptly exploiting the aesthetic and accidental offerings of his chosen materials. Langa "draws" with yarn and string, and delights in the abundance of small colorful toys interspersed among fanciful outcrops of books and LPs. The beet juice, salt crystals, wine, coffee, and tea with which he paints possess an organic materiality that is eternally giving, and in Langa's hands, capable of extraordinary beauty. Collaged adjacencies clipped and created anew become layered striations and fragmented terrains of Dutch tulip fields, South African thorn trees, mirages, and thresholds of interior, mystical spaces. Indeed, Langa's psycho-geographical mark-making throws into relief the limits of place-based identity, African or otherwise, and the liberating power to envison the spaces in between.

Sarah Lawrence College offers six modern languages and their literatures. Students may take French, German, Italian, Japanese, Russian, and Spanish from beginning to advanced levels that equally stress the development of communicative skills such as speaking, listening comprehension, reading, and writing, as well as the study of literature written in these languages in Europe, Africa, and the Americas. In addition to the regular seminar work with the language faculty, students will work closely with language assistants in individual or small-group meetings to practice their language skills and make further progress. Language teaching is also supported by fully equipped computer labs, where students can use the Web, do computer exercises, and enjoy audio facilities. Students of Spanish may have the opportunity to make use of Community Partnerships. Some departments also offer literature courses in translation, in which students are introduced to the various cultural and historical contexts of the modern languages offered at the College.
In an attempt to encourage students to study more than one foreign language at the same time, Sarah Lawrence College offers sophomores, juniors, and seniors the option of taking a Language Third. This allows students to continue a language on a more advanced level while, at the same time, enrolling in a beginner's class in a different language. Students taking a Language Third will earn 10 credits, at no extra cost, for the combined study of two languages of their choice. Another excellent option offered by the Modern Languages and Literatures department is the Lecture Language Third. This interdisciplinary link affords students the opportunity of meeting the lecture requirement while fully benefiting from studying the foreign language of their preference at any level of proficiency, also at no extra cost. Students taking this option are not required to do conference work in their language courses.

La GRANGE — North Lenoir carved out a big lead early only to see the Jaguars come roaring back. Despite leading by double digits in the third quarter, the Hawks fell 53-49 to Farmville Central Tuesday night.
"I thought the kids played hard on defense," NL coach Anthony Loftin said. "We just couldn't hit a shot when we needed to."
It felt like the Hawks (3-5) couldn't miss in the first half, as North Lenoir shot 50 percent (13 of 26) from the field in the half. That included a 14-0 second-quarter run in which the team hit seven of 10 shots, including three of five from 3-point range.
The offensive spurt put the Hawks up 29-21 after trailing by four at the end of the first quarter. North Lenoir's biggest lead of the night came on a long 3-pointer by Jauquaz Jones that gave his team a 42-31 lead with 5:05 remaining in the third quarter.
Jones led all scorers with 17 points to go along with six rebounds and was the only NL player to reach double figures. Luke Jackson tallied nine points for the Hawks, while Javonta King added eight.
However, Jones' trifecta would be North Lenoir's last points for more than five minutes as the Jaguars switched to a zone defense to prevent the Hawks from attacking the rim.
"It's all about ball movement," Loftin said. "When Farmville went to the zone, we had to shoot jump shots over them."
The Jaguars chipped away at the deficit, and a Shaft Parker bucket with 1:19 left in the quarter pulled Farmville Central within two at 42-40. NL's Orlando Cannon finally broke the Hawks' drought with 2.5 seconds left to put his team ahead, 44-40, as the Hawks entered the fourth quarter.
The last period was more of the same for North Lenoir, who hit only two of 17 shots in the final period, including an abysmal 1-of-11 from 3-point range.
"We didn't move the ball good enough in the second half," Loftin said. "We took too many contested, forced 3's instead of running our offense."
Meanwhile, a Steve McCabe free throw with 4:49 to play gave the Jaguars their first lead since nearly the six-minute mark in the first half, a lead Farmville would not relinquish for the rest of the night. Farmville Central's Ikeesta Johnson led his team with a double-double, contributing 15 points and 13 rebounds in a winning effort. Keyshaw Pitt also reached double figures with 13 points.
The Hawks remained within striking distance for the final minutes but could not hit the big shot when they needed it. Conversely, the Jaguars were clutch down the stretch. They sank five of six free throws in the fourth, including both ends of a one-and-one with 1.9 seconds left to go up by four and seal the victory.
Girls' game
North Lenoir squandered a double-digit lead and lost by two at Farmville Central earlier this month.
The Hawks weren't about to let history repeat itself Tuesday night in La Grange. North Lenoir (2-6) shut out the visiting Jaguars 19-0 in the first quarter and never looked back, cruising to a 52-25 non-conference win.
"I thought we were where we needed to be tonight," NL coach Calvin Sutton said. "We wanted to come out and take it to the other team with all we had. I thought we did a good job on the defensive end with both our intensity and effort – effort being the key word."
The Hawks, playing with point guard Erica Lee for the first time in a week, were extraordinarily balanced on offense. Nine of 11 girls who suited up scored for North Lenoir, yet no player reached double figures.
"It was good to get her back today," Sutton said of Lee.
Quoya Porter led all scorers with nine points, followed by Lee with eight and Alyssa Borja with seven. Four other players had at least five points. The Hawks extended their lead every quarter, leading 28-8 at the half and 39-18 after three quarters of play.
"It was a close game at Farmville," Sutton said. "We were up 14 or 16 points at their place, but we couldn't finish. We got complacent, and I think we learned from that. We grew from that."
FC scoring: Ikeesta Johnson 15, Keyshaw Pitt 13, Phillips 9, Jones 4, Smith 4, Parker 4, McCabe 3, Dickens 1.
NL scoring: Jauqaz Jones 17, Jackson 9, King 8, Cannon 6, Mason 4, Letchworth 3, Robinson 2.
FC scoring: Blackmore 8, Foster 5, Rodgers 5, Pitt 4, Pender 2, Barrett 1.

I LOVE Belle Angelica! I have worn it now for about 4 years and I would not change for the world. I ALWAYS get complimented on how good I smell. This fragrance is difficult to find so get some when you can get your hands on it. That's what I do. I have looked for other perfumes, but none compare to this one.

Comments about Resist Nomad 700C Tire:
I used these tires on my touring/cyclocross bikes for gravel rides and commuting. They looked sweet on the bike, and have an awesome looking tread pattern. These tires are best for riding on rough roads or gravel. They don't roll super fast on pavement though.
Mounted up fine, not too tight of a bead, but I had trouble getting these to run true. There was always a hop in the tire. Probably could have been the tubes I was using, but the best results were had soaping the bead and overinflating to about 120 PSI to seat the bead, then deflating to 80 PSI.
These Tires are tough, grippy, and robust. They would be better if they had a higher thread count (lighter casing) and a folding bead, but that would certainly be asking too much. For the price these tires are solid performers for urban riding. Get tan sidewalls for major style points...

Comments about Resist Nomad 700C Tire:
This is a pretty nice tire (I got the 35c), especially for the price. I've used Panaracer Paselas in 32c before and these compare quite favorably in ride quality, but aren't as good in build quality. They're cheap, and fairly light. The 35c actually measures a hair over 31c on my 20mm rims, so watch out for that. Rumor has it that the 45c actually measures closer to 40c. It looks good and feels good. I'm about 170 lbs and carry around 15 pounds of gear on my commuter bike, and I run these at 80psi with no complaints.

Comments about Rox Ultralight Rim Strip:
Note that this item is for a set of two rim strips. In comparison to popular rim tapes, this tape saves on average 17g per wheel. Each strip weighs about 1.5g according to the package. I saved 33g over both my wheels. Doesn't sound like much but it's rotational weight at the very edge of the wheel. Combined with light tubes and tires you can save over a half pound of rotational weight over stock setups! This stuff basically looks like gift-wrapping tape but is way stronger. It is embossed with the Rox logo. Looks nice and isn't too pricey considering other rim tapes.

We asked several industry suppliers for their take on the topic of medical esthetic technology—a popular phrase in today's industry. Is it here to stay? What will be the next hot trend? How can spas profit from this technology? Following, they share their responses.
Q: What do you feel will be the next hot technology to reach the medical esthetic market?
"According to the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, choices have changed significantly for age-management approaches with respect to surgical modalities. In 2005, more than 11.5 million cosmetic surgery procedures were performed. Of these, 81% were noninvasive, nonsurgical applications due to the demand by our progressive age-management generation, most of whom are baby boomers who want minimal downtime, less morbidity and immediate results. Members of the impending boomer generation are approaching 60, and, due to the commitment to battling aging successfully, they now will be recognized as 'the new 40,' and technology will satisfy the need to keep pace with this demanding demographic. The medical esthetic industry provides state-of-the-art nonablative lasers, microdermabrasion, intense pulsed light (IPL) and light-emitting diode (LED)—just to name a few of the wrinkle war instruments developed to combat the effects of aging and lifestyle imbalances."

A good time to schedule a visit with a gynecologist (or women's health specialist) is when you first have problems or concerns with menstrual periods, including premenstrual moods, acne around menses, vaginal discharge or any other cyclic discomfort. That appointment will involve a conversation about what is bothering you and may include a pelvic exam or may not. Likely the doctor will ask you questions and together you will decide whether or not an exam is necessary.
Around age 13, even if you feel fine and are just wondering when you should come in for a routine exam, is a good time to schedule an appointment to discuss your female health, contraception and screening for sexually transmitted infection. Vaccinations may be recommended if you have not already received routine immunizations. Some of the things that may be discussed include your health history, family health history, your habits with regard to diet and exercise, smoking or any drug use and sexual activities. Some of these topics are things you may find difficult to discuss with friends and family. In the gynecologists office we talk about those things all of the time! Often we give you pamphlets or point to online resources for you. The conversation is confidential and it is okay for you to remind the health care provider that you wish it to remain confidential.

Cleveland Indians Tickets
Cleveland Indians Tickets Tickets Rated 0.00/5 based on 0 customer reviews
2013 Record (90-72) Lost to Rays in Playoffs The 113th season for the Cleveland Indians was a successful one. The Indians finished with a record 18 games above .500 finishing second behind the Detroit Tigers in the AL Central. With first year manager, Terry Francona, at the helm the Indians made the playoffs in the wild card spot before getting bounced by the Tampa Bay Rays. Looking at the 2014 season, the Indians look to build off a successful 2013 campaign with much of the same roster returning. Terry Francona looked to be a calming influence on the club after he was chased out of town in Boston. Francona will have to make sure to push all the right buttons again to compete in the AL Central. The Indians return their leader in RBIs, Home Runs, Avg, OBP, and Hits from last year's team.. Michael Brantley, looks to step forward as the team's most consistent offensive threat. The left fielder is currently leading the Indians in all five major offensive categories. Also on the offensive side of the ball the Indians look for second baseman, Jason Kipnis and catcher, Carlos Santana to help carry the load. Pitching wise, the Indians were unable to hang on to starting pitcher Ebaldo Jimenez who made his way to Baltimore. His departure has paved the way for other starting pitchers, Justin Masterson and Corey Kluber to fill the void. The Indians currently find themselves in last place in the division but there are games to be played. With an experienced manager and playoff tested roster the Indians look to make a push the rest of the season to get back into the playoff race. Don't be the one who misses out as the Indians make their run. Head to Gold Coast Tickets today to get in on the action!

Review favours new Pattullo Bridge, not rehab
A new four- or six-lane bridge to replace the aging Pattullo Bridge are the only options TransLink supports out of six that had previously been short-listed.
A review team consisting of TransLink, Surrey and New Westminster reps recommended further study of those two options going into public consultations that had been set to take place in February and March but have been postponed.
Off the table are refurbishing the existing Pattullo to operate with just three lanes or building a new five-lane bridge over the Fraser River.
Two other options are still being pushed by New Westminster but aren't supported by the full team – a new Surrey-Coquitlam bridge further upstream to bypass New West coupled with a rehabilitated three- or four-lane Pattullo; or else just a rehabilitated four-lane Pattullo.
The $1.5-billion Surrey-Coquitlam link is unlikely but has not been ruled out yet, said Bob Paddon, TransLink executive vice-president of strategic planning and public affairs.
"It would be a very expensive option," he said. "It was on the cusp of not making the cut even several months ago."
New Westminster Mayor Wayne Wright still supports the option to help take traffic off New Westminster roads.
"That rehab and connection over to Surrey from Coquitlam really has a lot of merit," Wright said. "Over on the Port Coquitlam and Coquitlam side they have their own trucking industries over there and it would give them perfect access."
Wright said any replacement for the Pattullo should be tolled, a scenario that would make the Alex Fraser the next nearest free crossing for users of both the Pattullo and the tolled Port Mann.
"That's the way you get people to change patterns and pay for it," Wright said.
Paddon said no decision has been made on tolling the replacement.
The question of how to pay for the project got more complex, he said, when the province recently indicated it would pay for one third of a Pattullo replacement and lobby Ottawa for further contributions.
Until that point TransLink had assumed tolls were the only option.
Paddon said the delay in consultations is because it became apparent TransLink needed to take more time to determine how the Pattullo would fit into a TransLink investment plan regional mayors are drawing up to go to referendum.
"As we start to narrow options you start to get to the point people want to know how we pay for it," Paddon said, adding he didn't want to waste the public's time going to meetings where there would be too many unanswered questions.
Nor is it guaranteed that tolls could fully fund a Pattullo replacement, Paddon said, noting tolls aren't covering the costs of the Golden Ears Bridge.
Surrey council wants the six-lane new bridge that New Westminster strongly opposes.
Surrey Coun. Barinder Rasode said the province should intervene and force a solution to replace the Pattullo if there are further delays or resistance to a new bridge from New West.
She said TransLink needs to consult the public more to settle on a final design option, adding there's no sense waiting to do that.
TransLink has budgeted $300 million over three years for repairs to the Pattullo.
"It doesn't make any sense when waiting is costing us so much," Rasode said.
TransLink has had to put up nets to catch chunks falling from the bridge and its engineers have warned the Pattullo could be knocked out of service by a moderate earthquake, a ship collision or river erosion.
Rasode said delay runs the risk of the bridge being closed indefinitely – resulting in traffic chaos – or even of lives being lost if the bridge actually fell in a quake.
"We just need to do it," she said. "I'm hoping the transportation minister will step in and say 'It's time.'"
