‘Are You Now or Have You Ever Been?’ Through Dec. 6 Arena Stage 1101 6th St., S.W.

It was fantastic.” Bland (who’s known for blending storytelling, technology, and design to create immersive experiences) sought projection inspiration from, among other things, the 1990 ballroom flick “Paris is Burning,” focusing on its titles and fonts, “honoring the past while pushing a design into the future.

Nearby: Raleigh, NCRALEIGH, NC - November 13, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE -Better Business Bureau accreditation for Index Fence, first granted on Nov. 4, 2020, reached its six-year mark earlier this month. The residential fence installation company currently holds the BBB's A+ grade, the highest on its A+ through F scale, and is noting the milestone because both records are public and homeowners can check them before hiring a contractor to dig post holes in their yard.The BBB calculates each letter grade from a 100-point score. Among other factors, the score weighs a business's complaint history, how long it has operated, how openly it does business, its licensing information and any advertising issues. Customer reviews are not part of the calculation.Accreditation asks more of a business than the grade does. An accredited business pays the bureau a fee and agrees to keep meeting the BBB Standards for Trust, a set of eight commitments that includes advertising honestly and honoring promises.

Davie County Enterprise Record · Raleigh, NC
Nearby: Raleigh, NCJulia Howard has represented the people of her district since the 1980s, and she is heading back to Raleigh for at least two more years. The incumbent in District 77 for the North Carolina House successfully fended off a challenge from former Rowan-Salisbury School Board member Sabrina Harris. Howard took home 25,470 votes (70.79 percent) compared to Harris’ 10,511 votes (29.21 percent). Howard’s district-wide numbers roughly mirrored the Davie County turnout, where she received 12,509 votes (68.02 percent), and Harris received 5,882 (31.92 percent). Howard’s percentages were down this year compared to 2024, when she defeated Kashmir Sibby 79 percent to 21 percent. That push to the left was felt across the state, but unlike many of her Republican colleagues in the House, Howard was able to hold on for reelection. “I was shocked that the numbers were what they were,” she said on Thursday. “We knew that we were going to lose seats but not to the extent that we did.

Out · Durham, NC
Nearby: Durham, NCIn 2005, I was 24 years old, living in San Francisco, playing in a band, and beginning to realize that the thing that had once made me feel free was slowly becoming the thing that might destroy me. George W. Bush had just won a second term, the war in Iraq continued, and the political climate felt increasingly hostile to the queer communities that had given me a sense of purpose and belonging. San Francisco was a place of extraordinary queer history, culture, and possibility, and I was grateful to be part of it. But I was also navigating my own identity, carrying a great deal of unresolved fear and shame from my upbringing in the conservative South. Drinking had become a way to quiet some of that fear, even as it was beginning to take on a life of its own. I had spent years searching for freedom, and in many ways, I'd found it. What I hadn't figured out was how to feel comfortable in my own skin.
