  • The Better Business Bureau’s Video Warning

    The Better Business Bureau has begun to send out their video consumer warnings in addition to their press releases. They offer some excellent information and tips to be weary of in the consumer marketplace.

  • Never heard it like that before

    I’ve never even heard of a euphonium and I was a band geek. Even more, I’ve certainly never heard one play Beyonce. So I got a kick out of this video by “Complete Bunch of Pants,” even if it’s a bit dark. Check this out:

  • Taylor Hicks visits NBC17

    We had a celebrity in our midst this week: Taylor Hicks from American Idol dropped by our studios to promote his upcoming performance in Grease at DPAC. We’ve got the full interview with him on our Entertainment page. Our blogger Erica even got her picture taken with Hicks.

  • Grass makes a tasty treat

    I’m not laboring too hard on Labor Day … instead I”m watching online videos, like this one of Mr. Scrubby. Watching cats eat grass sounds about as fun as watching paint dry, but this turned out to be surprisingly adorable.

  • howRDUdoin’ Greets Class of 2013

    School is back, and after a summer hiatus, so is local blog howRDUdoin’. They kick off their return with this amusing video showing their interview skills for new Duke and UNC students moving in. Is it me, or do these people look too young for college? Hmm…

  • How NOT to capture fledgings on film

    Some say the ends justify the means. But bird blogger Dave disagrees, and he apologizes for this lovely video of new birds leaving the nest — not for the footage, but for the trick he played to get the moment on camera.

  • Summer splash

    Around here summer and swimming don’t really end in August, but it always feels like the end of summer, doesn’t it? I laughed at this video of some attempts to ‘tame’ a dragon at Jordan Lake. Makes me want to hit the beach at least once more this year.

  • The Mrs. dips into freezer burns

    I’ve always been curious what Mrs. Freezer Burns thinks about her husband’s odd choice of blog topics. For those unaware Gregory Ng blogs about frozen foods – the good, the bad and the ugly. This week it’s his wife’s turn to weigh in with her favorites.

  • DIY: Battery DTV

    With the switch to digital, many people have had to toss their small battery-powered TVs used in storms. But don’t worry! NBC17 Engineer Russell Mizelle has a great how-to video on his blog to keep that tiny TV working during major weather.

  • Mural spices up Clayton fence

    I think random murals in cities and towns are a cool way to jazz up boring concrete walls, so this post by the Clayton, NC blog about a fence mural caught my eye. You can check out a picture of the cheerful painting and watch a video interview of the women involved in its creation.
