Facing a roomful of American Athletic Conference coaches and administrators this spring, Steve Hatchell made another defense of the sport he loves. In some form or another, Hatchell has spread the NFF mantra of "Football Matters" as far and wide as he can. Those two words carry extra weight these days. Football matters more than ever.

Legislative leaders’ refusal to expand Medicaid has deprived hundreds of thousands of North Carolinians of lifesaving medical care and has left rural hospitals dangling in the fiscal winds.

Seventy of North Carolina’s 80 rural counties are already designated as “medical deserts”...

The company has fiercely denied the categorization of its finances by a whistleblower, while mounting a strong defense of its financial practices. “We operate with absolute integrity and stand behind our financial reporting,” GE’s vice president of investor relations Steve Winoker wrote in his latest newsletter on Monday. While GE does have heightened exposure to long-term care, the problem is not isolated to the troubled industrial giant. That’s because all the industry’s players are...

Local retirement savers are feeling constrained, bound as they are by the asset-spreading requirements of Regulation 28, offshore investment limits, exchange controls and perhaps even prescribed assets one of these days. We don’t see this in other free market economies. South Africans are conditioned to living with ‘abnormal’, but these restraints are highly contentious, even more so in the current economic climate. Compulsory annuitisation is another frustration, especially for those who plan to emigrate after retirement, because it means their capital is forever locked up in South Africa. Only the income can be expatriated, presenting unnecessary costs, paperwork and exchange rate risks...

6 police chiefs in the last 2 years. What's going on in this Mississippi town? A new administration in any municipality generally brings change in the first few months following an election, but in one small Mississippi town, change has been a constant. Lumberton has had 14 police chiefs in the last 20 years — six of them in the last two years alone. When the new administration took over in the city of 2,200 in July 2017, Elsie Cowart was chief of police. Two months later the board of aldermen voted to not reappoint her. Mayor Quincy Rogers vetoed the move, but at a subsequent meeting, the board again decided not to reappoint Cowart. Instead, they appointed another officer, Shane...
