Looks like his web design vendor left a temporary test site up or something.

Actually, having two stores in close proximity is a well-known marketing tactic for people with alzheimer's.

They shop in one store, buy something, leave, see the other store, and enter, only to keep buying more things. The cycle repeats until they run out of money.

I think Drew is correct. If you go to the domain name (http://www.sevenagesdev.com) you'll see a display of their web root with some other sites as well. I'd guess (because this one looks a lot cleaner), that this is a site redesign.

The contact us page has the tarheel info, so it is the same company.

You could always use that contact form to see.

It isn't a language google translate recognizes either. As Bibiwood mentioned, it is a filler text - gibberish.

If you click on any of the Contact Us links, all info is in english and matches the Tar Heel information, so I suggest just going with Tar Heel website and contacting them.
