Not Guilty by Reason of Insanity | Durham News (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A North Carolina judge has ruled that Tailei Qi, the man who fatally shot UNC physics professor Zijie Yan in August 2023, is not guilty by reason of insanity. The verdict, reached after psychiatric testimony confirmed Qi suffered from untreated schizophrenia and psychotic delusions, dropped all murder charges. Instead of prison, Qi will be involuntarily committed to a psychiatric hospital indefinitely. The ruling underscores the complex role mental health plays in the justice system, especially
O’Charley’s Closes All Corporate Locations | Durham News (opens the original)
Read excerpt
O’Charley’s, the beloved chain known for its sports-game commercials and southern comfort food, is shutting down its 49 corporate locations—gone by September 8th—with no warning.

Paired with reigning champ Witney Carson, he battled self-doubt and crushing low scores, even panicking when his name wasn’t called for elimination. But now? He’s fully committed, grinding through rehearsals while juggling Jimmy Kimmel Live! filming—and Witney says his work ethic speaks volumes. What began as a desperate escape has turned i
Intel Could Hit $200 a Share | Durham News (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Intel’s stock could skyrocket to $200 a share in two years, according to Melius Research, predicting a 157% surge this year — but it hinges on execution. The firm splits Intel’s value into two halves: its processor business and its foundry arm, each worth $80/share. To hit that target, Intel needs major clients to commit to its next-gen chipmaking tech, scale production, and keep raising prices without losing customers — especially as AI demand surges. While rumors of SK Hynix leasing space at I
