Don’t be surprised if you see a lot of red today as you’re moving through town (or across the country for that matter).
These conscientious people are doing their part to help raise awareness about heart disease and stroke, the number one killers among women in the United States. National Go Red for Women Day’s official website can provide you with additional information that you can share with others today and help keep you informed of any other things that you can do to raise awareness.
Tonight will be the first meeting of 101 Birmingham (which should not be confused with the Birmingham 101 website across the pond).
They describe themselves as “an open-source collaborative developing innovative and visionary solutions to improve the urban experience in Birmingham” that are seeking answers to one question, “Birmingham would be a better place if….”
They hope to produce a list of 101 actual suggestions for improving Birmingham with areas of focus that are similar to those of several organizations that currently exist in the city and share that list online for all to see, collaborate and offer suggestions on. The organizers hope that they can create an environment and a gathering place, virtual or otherwise, to share these ideas openly instead of ”hoarded.”
“I want people new to the Birmingham area or having to move here (god bless you) to have an easy way of finding out where to hang, drink, meet people, whatever.”
The film’s script is based on the 109-year-old transcripts of the convention and reveals the issues of race, poverty and suffrage – and perhaps several other reasons why we may want to rewrite the document. Tickets are still available for the screening which will include a panel discussion with:
Merika Coleman, Alabama State Representative (D) for District 57 (Jefferson)
Paul DeMarco, Alabama State Representative (R) for District 46 (Jefferson)
Dr. Carol Ann Vaughn Cross, Core Curriculum Fellow, Samford University (Moderator)
The men’s basketball team at Miles College will take to the hardwood tonight in Jackson, TN to face Lane College at 7:30 p.m.. There will officially be a new head coach at the reigns for the Golden Bears when that happens.
Interim Miles athletic director Dr. Chico Caldwell also announced that Birmingham, AL native Will Cotchery would continue serving as interim head coach until the end of the season and that a search for a permanent replacement would start at that time.
The increased amount of searches of the site gave us a good idea that the A&E TV series The First 48 will bring viewers back to Birmingham, AL for tonight’s episode. A reminder was sent out to fans yesterday via Twitter complete with a show description:
The first episode aired last February after there was disagreement over whether to allow the popular reality series to film here. Don’t worry if you miss tonight’s episode at 8 p.m. – it’ll air again later on tonight (and whenever they feel like letting it).
The Barons, wearing their uniforms from their 1910 season, will host the Tennessee Smokies. The visitors will wear uniforms from the 1914 season when they were known as the Appalachian Smokies.
Don’t be surprised if you see a lot of red today as you’re moving through town (or across the country for that matter).
