Technology Makes It’s Way Into The Classroom
First there were calculators and computers, then came the internet. Now some students are getting the opportunity to use Skype in their classrooms. Here the author if Instructify tells you how to implement this in your lesson plans.
Erica Bustamante
Foreign-language teachers have embraced Skype as a powerful tool to reinforce second-language acquisition. By partnering with a class in another country, both classes can refine their conversational skills.
Review: Wicked Casts A Spell On DPAC
Broadway musical Wicked is now at the Durham Performing Arts Center for it’s month-long run.
Erica Bustamante
The moment you walk into the DPAC theatre, you are submerged into the peculiar world of Oz. From the clock like set borders, to the gigantic dragon above, you immediately know you’re not in Durham anymore.
Raleigh Amphitheatre Gets More Bookings
Even though construction on the Raleigh Amphitheatre has yet to be completed, more and more acts are being booked to perform.
Erica Bustamante
Now comes word the Carnival of Madness festival featuring turn-of-the-century nü metal* throwbacks will indeed come to the new venue July 25.
What’s In A Name?
Many people have heard North Carolina and sometimes South Carolina referred to as “cackalacky”…but where did that name come from?
Erica Bustamante
“It doesn’t look like anyone has come up with a convincing answer yet, and it may well just be an invented ‘nonsense’ word that sounds vaguely like Carolina,” Goebel wrote in an e-mail.
Raleigh Staple The Rockford Closes Its Doors
After 15 years, The Rockford has announced that it has closed, according to New Raleigh. Having visited way back when, The Rockford was pretty much like it was when it started…Tucked away, upstairs, beyond any trendy image….always comfortable.
Stacy Peterson
Dear Friends, Thank you for the 15 years plus of good times and great memories. Sad to announce that Rockford is now closed permanently. Many thanks to the wonderful crew of talented and beautiful individuals whom I had the pleasure to work with. All will be missed. Love, Rockford
Goodnight, Raleigh Showcases Hidden Victorian Houses Of Hillsborough Street
Check out Goonight, Raleigh’s look at the Victorian-inspired homes of Hillsborough Street.
Stacy Peterson
Although the Oakwood neighborhood has the largest collection of Victorian-era houses in Raleigh, Hillsborough Street was once a bastion of homes built in the same period. Sadly, only a few remain today.

St. Patrick’s Day Parade Anyone?
I love St. Patrick’s Day celebrations. My mom says I have enough Irish in me to justify wearing a “Kiss Me I’m Irish” button, but even if I didn’t have a small claim to the heritage, I’d be downing green beer somewhere.

Heard The Gravy Boys? You Should
Carrying on the Piedmont tradition of Americana music, The Gravy Boys‘ rootsy tunes resonate long after hearing them. And with the band’s sophomore effort, 2009’s Dust Bowl Lover, The Gravy Boys have come into their own blending elements of “depression-era folk … high-lonesome duos … honky-tonk country and modern rootsy alt-country.”

New LiLa Music Video Showcases Durham
I’m not enough of a music fan to know where Durham-based “hip-rock” band LiLa will end up ranking in the world of music, but a BCR reader sent along this, their new video, which does a nice job featuring haunts around Trinity Park and downtown Durham. And it certainly left me, well, slackjawed enough to want to share it here.
