A look at what life is like when you’re homeless in Raleigh
The folks behind Sierra Club Socks, a local fundraising effort that provides the homeless with free socks, interviewed a homeless man in Moore Square and posted the video online. Do you think a video like this is a good way to promote a fundraiser?

Watch the Pack celebrate
I’m not big on college football, but I know it’s a big deal around these parts. So I figured some of our Wolfpack fans would appreciate being steered to this video that the News & Observer posted. It features clips of the team celebrating after its big win Saturday.

It’s time to go Christmas tree shopping

You don’t need to a witch or a warlock to play Quidditch
I thought being able to fly was a prerequisite to playing Quidditch, the extracurricular Harry Potter and his friends made famous at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft. But apparently, you don’t need to be able to fly or have a golden snitch. Quidditch is being played with broomsticks right here in the Triangle.
