Lennie was a very positive person. I'm glad he was my bike fitter. I don't have a cyclist's body, and that didn't matter to him. He just wanted everyone to be comfortable and enjoy riding their bikes.

Storms are worsening, and we have to be prepared when disaster strikes. Eliminating FEMA would be a man-made disaster. Let’s work together to fix FEMA so we are ready for the next natural disaster.

On April 12, 1776, patriots in the North Carolina Provincial Congress adopted the Halifax Resolves, making North Carolina the first colony to call for independence from the British Crown. The Resolves helped set the stage for the Declaration of Independence nearly 3 months later.
