Abstract:

For most of its history, Rougemont, in far northern Durham County, has been a place to graze cows and goats and grow crops like tobacco and corn. And not much has changed. But this year, Election Day could mark the start of a new era for Rougemont, if voters allow it. After decades of working for the opportunity, the community's registered voters will decided whether Rougemont should become a town of its own.

Abstract:

After 11 months of deliberation, Chapel Hill town officials still may not decide on legalization of food trucks until an October 17th public hearing. Trucks flourish in neighboring Durham and Carrboro, but they are less welcome in Chapel Hill, where mobile vendors can operate only if they have special-event permits or if they park on private property with approval from the town planning board.

Abstract:

An American staple since 1912, the Oreo is the world's most popular manufactured cookie. The unique embossed design is said to have been the work of William A. Turnier, of Chapel Hill, who worked for 49 years at Nabisco. Turnier also designed the Nutter Butter and the Milk Bone.
