Articles deal with health, advice, school issues, technology, book reviews, fun things to do, and a number of other features and columns. One fun section is billed as "beauty, fashion and lifestyle tips for today's busy moms." The Web site has an events calendar, discussion forums, blogs, themed guides, and much more. I wouldn't know personally, but this seems like a fun, helpful resource.

This is a excellent optimal health resource paper. It's published twice a month, and I always find…read morea plethora of knowledge on technologies and procedures. For example, I was reading an article about a Dr. Thomas LeGrow who works with patients with spinal issues at Durham Regional Spine Center uses a Zero Gravity decompression table to not only relieve, but heal the pain of varying spinal issues. I thought of a relative who might qualify for this type of procedure in lieu of surgery. There are several other articles ranging from preventative health to maintaining excellent oral hygiene. There are 40,000 plus copies of the paper distributed in medical offices, major shopping areas, libraries, bookstores and health food stores to mention a few. So pick up one and keep healthy!

I picked up a copy of the slick Durham Magazine from a display in Cocoa Cinnamon near the Nasher…read moreMuseum. Flipping through the pages and reading articles tells a lot about what's interesting on the Durham side of the Raleigh-Durham area including the latest in news and events, lifestyle tips and restaurant reviews. The articles are well-written and cover a wide array of topics, including arts and entertainment, dining, wellness, and community happenings. I enjoyed the cover article about critical care and helicopter transport in the area. While it's past Christmas time now, the article about DIY merrymaking was interesting. I found it all to be easy to read and while there are a lot of advertisements, they're compelling exposure for local businesses, most of them rather high end. I don't know that I would pay for a subscription, I would have no problem picking up a free copy to see what's going on here. Durham Magazine is published six times a year.

I appreciate Channel 11-WTVD News and Weather Dept…read more The Anchor's come across as personable and authentic .The Meteorologists' are informative --without being verbose.And also personable. The Reporters are Factual without adding a layer of political bias. There appears to be a true camaraderie that helps alleviate some of the pain felt when they must present some of the recent horrible current events... Channel 11 Management --you are doing a good job picking good people . NOW--if you could only entice Brian Mims to your staff (since that he has just left WRAL ). That would add a layer of joy in local story -telling that I think you are missing ( I do not know Brian Mims--just have seen him on another local station) . Channel 11would go from an " A" to an " A+" Station The News these days is so often presented in a Sensationalized format . I think Ch11, WTVD is trying to avoid that common News Station trait --and it's greatly appreciated 5 Stars --well deserved .

I love ABC11! You have the best news, in my opinion. However, there is an issue that my wife and I…read morehave witnessed for the past few years, and we've discussed it openly with displeasure. When John Clark (the GOAT) left, and when the lovely Barbara Gibbs moved, you made some changes that have become a thorn in our flesh. It's about the Morning News and WEATHER. Joel Brown, although married now, is clearly infatuated with your Mardi Gras addition. He turns his back to Anna almost every segment and indulges the weather person. At times, they seem to hate on precious Anna by giving snide, sarcastic remarks to Anna. Here's the main point. The news in the morning is "classy", yet the weather in the morning is "trashy". Not trying to be mean, but that Louisiana news woman dresses like a street walker most of the time. And she has shown herself to be a "mean girl", although she sometimes speak like she is partly religious. Her body language and her comments to Anna make her appear jealous of Anna because Anna is naturally beautiful inside and out - not forced - natural. And sometimes KM turns almost completely around showing her backside in her super tight apparel (as if on purpose). Let me also add that KM is extremely good at what she does. She knows her stuff. As a prior Military Police Investigator and local Law Enforcement Officer who literally taught the class on "Verbal and Nonverbal Communication", I don't like what I see. Weather was never so sexually provocative and distasteful before KM joined the team. Just a bit too much while wearing that plastic smile. KM, I am sure, is a nice young lady deep down inside. But fishnet stockings, boots up to the thighs, high cut splits in short skirts, red and black swirls on her dress (looks occultic/demonic)... I could go on but I will stop here. This is not a verbal battery or divine judgement. It is objective observation. Love Big Weather and Cruz! Overall, you guys ROCK!!!

I can't quite figure this publication out. Seems to want to be a liberal paper that's meant to…read moreappeal to the modern woman who's juggling a career, a family, and a social life. They have articles on all three as well as familiar female topics like fashion and beauty. It's jam-packed with ads, though, and it seems like 90% of them are for plastic surgery. What modern woman needs to be bombarded with that?

WXYC is one of the best university radio stations I've heard, and probably the most musically…read morediverse station in the Triangle, if not the state. On the air since 1977, they play an incredibly wide range of music, with a special focus on local artists. Every day from 5-9 pm they give away tickets for shows at local venues, which is a great opportunity to explore Chapel Hill's music scene. As far as programming goes, I love the Thursday Night Feature, where the DJ picks a theme and then chooses the songs that fit that theme (e.g., 3 hours of songs about rainbows, or whatever). The only downside to WXYC is that with that much focus on diverse programming and music, there are certain times of day that they just don't play any songs I like. Nine times out of ten I like what I hear, but then again I've also flipped over when they were playing what sounded like 15 straight minutes of windchimes.

But they're a pretty powerful station as they tuned in for more than two hours. WRDU is part of the iHeartMedia conglomerate (formerly Clear Channel) and so they pretty much like to remind you constantly that the station is available if you're only say "Alexa, play WRDU on iHeart" which I'm not planning on doing. Good classic rock and roll. J. Geils Bank, Queen, Van Halen, Quiet Riot and more. I was air drumming (badly) on my steering wheel most of the time.
