| Racing Realities” – Diaries of a Race Car Driver - #3
I told you I was leaving for the Daytona 24 hrs race but did not make any prediction before hand. Maybe that was a good thing after all, ‘cause we ended up in second place overall and almost won the thing! I raced with SAMAX Motorsport and was driving car #11 sponsored by CITGO, well, I was not alone, I must admit. I had three great teammates that definitely helped me get to the runner-up position at the end. It was myself, Milka Duno, Ryan Dalziel and Darren Manning at the wheel. All did a fine job. We all had good battles and survived. .
Center Treatment Helps Relieve Acid Reflux
Ervin Monroe's heartburn was so bad at times that he thought he might be having a heart attack. Every day, acid from his stomach seeped up into his esophagus and even into his mouth. "My acid reflux got so bad that I couldn't drink sodas, because they would burn my tongue, and I could hardly even drink water," says Monroe, who lives in Lillington. Monroe is a longtime member of the Mighty Sons of Faith gospel group, but his voice wasn't sounding so mighty because of the acid that irritated his throat.

Women struggle with heart disease, too
In the United States, heart disease is the No. 1 killer of women, claiming the lives of more females than males. More women die from heart disease than breast cancer. In fact, heart attack and stroke claim more lives than the next seven leading causes of death. If you're like most women, you may not identify yourself as a candidate for heart disease. You're busy worrying about the health needs of your husband, children and, in some cases, elderly parents. It's easy to minimize the signs that something is wrong with your health. It's also easy to mistake the symptoms of a heart attack because, for women, they're often different from what we've heard about. Women are more likely to experience fatigue, indigestion, abdominal pain, shortness of breath and heart palpitations.
