In the triangle $ABC$, the segment $CL$ is the angle bisector. The $C$-exscribed circle with center at the point $ I_c$ touches the side of the $AB$ at the point $D$ and the extension of sides $CA$ and $CB$ at points $P$ and $Q$, respectively. It turned out that the length of the segment $CD$ is equal to the radius of this exscribed circle. Prove that the line $PQ$ bisects the segment $I_CL$.

The two circles ${{w} _ {1}}, \, \, {{w} _ {2}}$ touch externally at the point $Q$. The common external tangent of these circles is tangent to ${{w} _ {1}}$ at the point $B$, $BA$ is the diameter of this circle. A tangent to the circle ${{w} _ {2}} $ is drawn through the point $A$, which touches this circle at the point $C$, such that the points $B$ and $C$ lie in one half-plane relative to the line $AQ$. Prove that the circle ${{w} _ {1}}$ bisects the segment $C $. (Igor Nagel)
