When you hear the words beauty, beach, or the Bahamas, it likely brings up images of warm, rest, and relaxation. And while that is definitely a part of it, there's something more to it than just another excursion or vacation.

When it comes to the Major League Baseball Hall of Fame, there's a good amount of debate and discussion of who should be voted in, their impact on the game, and so forth. Of a number of glaring omissions, there's one person who without his efforts and sacrificing of his career, pl

The arts provide a means of creativity when it comes to thinking and compiling works of impact, including on those who partake of them and the audiences reached. When it comes to the efforts of Dr. Shenita Connally and her work via #LifeWithShenita, it takes on an even stronger meaning.

With the 2026-27 academic year in full swing, many a student is navigating the workload from classes, extracurriculars, jobs, and just about anything else which is part of a young adult's existence and being. By the same token, for high school seniors, it hits differently. Ranging from taking note of their transcripts to testing, creating their resumes (of jobs, clubs, and related endeavors), and other aspects of the post-high school process (i.e. college or related educatio

Waiting to exhale. For some, it's a reference to the book or movie. For others, it's just the moment in which they can simply breathe, release, and renew. And on September 12, 2026 at The Crown at the Carolina Theater of Greensboro, it's an opportunity for women of multiple walks of life to do so in building a sense of community, engaging with multiple speakers, engaging in creative activity, and coming away with a sense of renewal applicable across multiple aspects of their
