A visit to Raleigh is more than a trip to a blossoming Southern metropolis—you'll feel enriched and energized the instant you're warmly welcomed by its smart, savvy locals.

JOEL'S STORY
Climbing tends to attract highly intelligent people because of the problem-solving aspects of the sport. It isn't just physical.
Showing folks the ropes is just one way that Joel Graybeal boosts confidence and strengthens problem-solving skills as managing partner at Triangle Rock Club (TRC). With two area facilities, including the highest climbing wall in a five-state radius, TRC is a top spot for visitors looking to conquer fears and reach their full potential.
Joel knows a thing or two about heights, starting his career as a rocket scientist working for the Pentagon. In 2007, he stumbled upon a rock climbing gym near his home where he quickly learned that the same skills he employed as an engineer came into play with this adrenaline-fueled sport.
He moved to Raleigh after finding it on a Best of list, visiting for just one day before deciding it was where he wanted to raise a family and build a life around his favorite activity, eventually opening TRC.
Joel credits Raleigh's smart locals with helping form a strong foundation for TRC, not only pushing themselves but also encouraging others to achieve their goals. This is one of the reasons Raleigh has become such a great destination. You don't have to be from here to feel welcome. Simply put, people want to spend time with nice people.

King pong
You hear them before you see them, tipped off by the familiar “pock-pock-pocking” sound. Then you round the corner and there they are – members of the Wright State University Table Tennis Club making magic with ping pong balls. The players are in the gymnasium of the Student Union furiously practicing for their appearance in the College Table Tennis National Championships in Greensboro, North Carolina, on April 12-14. Getting into the championships is quite a feat considering that the club is in its infancy and that several of its members never even played competitive table tennis before coming to Wright State. “I think it’s just huge,” said player Juan Olivari, a senior mechanical engineering student from Colombia. “We’re only in our second year and we were able to make it to nationals. It’s exciting.” More at

Clown's Junket | IndoSoul | Karthick Iyer | Raleigh | USA | 2017 North America Tour
Recorded Live: IndoSoul by Karthick Iyer performs Clown's Junket.
“Karthick Iyer Live!” was back in the Triangle area in 2017 as IndoSoul by Karthick Iyer to perform songs from their upcoming new album along with their classical hits. Metronome Studios hosted them at Stewart Theatre in the NC State University campus in association with MAITRI, Indian student organization, on 9th September 2017.
About Karthick Iyer:
Karthick Iyer has over 20 years of classical Carnatic experience, starting from the age of 8, captivating audiences with his soulful voice and emotion-led violin pieces. His creative fluency and technical assurance erase boundaries and move beyond the confines of individual genres.
Seeking to broaden his horizons, he started playing in the Indian film industry, with AR Rahman, Imman, Devi Sri Prasad and other notable music directors. He composed a song for a Bollywood movie along the way, as well as jingles for multiple TV ads.
His band, Karthick Iyer Live, is a collaboration of diverse musicians that make contemporary, soulful Indian music which, as Karthick explains, “takes Indian music to the world and brings the world to Indian music.” An electric violin, a mridangam, an acoustic guitar, bass and drums along with vocals form the core of the band. Often seen collaborating with diverse musicians, the band breaks down superficial barriers between genres, instruments, cultures, and languages to bring out the deep commonalities that define IndoSoul.
IndoSoul North America Tour
Our vision is to make Indian classical music more accessible to youngsters in India as well as listeners from different parts of the world. Over twenty years of classical music training coupled with extensive collaborations with musicians from different genres like rock, pop and jazz led me to IndoSoul. IndoSoul goes beyond the confines of genre, seeks out and welcomes other musical influences - while retaining its core identity of Indianness. Ever since we started our journey four years ago, we have developed a huge following on youtube and soundcloud with listeners from all around the world. This summer, we embark on our maiden tour to North America and look forward to meeting all our listeners from the New World!

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
Raleigh (; RAH-lee) is the capital of the state of North Carolina and the seat of Wake County in the United States. Raleigh is the second-largest city in the state, after Charlotte. Raleigh is known as the City of Oaks for its many oak trees, which line the streets in the heart of the city. The city covers a land area of 142.8 square miles (370 km2). The U.S. Census Bureau estimated the city's population as 479,332 as of July 1, 2018. It is one of the fastest-growing cities in the country. The city of Raleigh is named after Sir Walter Raleigh, who established the lost Roanoke Colony in present-day Dare County.
Raleigh is home to North Carolina State University (NC State) and is part of Research Triangle Park (RTP), together with Durham (home of Duke University and North Carolina Central University) and Chapel Hill (home of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill). The Triangle nickname originated after the 1959 creation of the Research Triangle Park, located in Durham and Wake counties, among the three cities and their universities. The Research Triangle region encompasses the U.S. Census Bureau's Raleigh-Durham-Chapel Hill Combined Statistical Area (CSA), which had an estimated population of 2,037,430 in 2013. The Raleigh metropolitan statistical area had an estimated population of 1,214,516 in 2013.
Most of Raleigh is located within Wake County, with a very small portion extending into Durham County. The towns of Cary, Morrisville, Garner, Clayton, Wake Forest, Apex, Holly Springs, Fuquay-Varina, Knightdale, Wendell, Zebulon, and Rolesville are some of Raleigh's primary nearby suburbs and satellite towns.
Raleigh is an early example in the United States of a planned city. Following the American Revolutionary War when the US gained independence, this was chosen as the site of the state capital ...
