The RGS Trio entertains the crowd at WorkPlay Theatre in advance of the awards/closing ceremony for this year’s Sidewalk Moving Picture Festival.

Head on over to Timetable to see who’s winning the awards.

While we could just keep on mining these numbers for any little thing that they could tell us, we figured we’d stop while we’re ahead and just provide the basic facts from our mayoral poll.

The submission page has been transformed into a results page, providing it in table format. We hope you’re as intrigued by the results as we are. Links to them are listed below:

NOTE: We did round numbers to the closest tenth, so yes, we realize that some of these will register just slightly above 100% totals.

During this weekend of festivals, head on over to the  4th Avenue Historic District for the Taste of 4th Avenue Jazz Festival. From our own Birmingham Heritage Jazz Band to the smooth sounds of Dee Lucas to the legendary Foxxy Fatts (1998 Alabama Jazz Hall of Fame inductee), there’s bound to be something for everyone, where you’re a jazz aficionado or not.

Cost: $0

Location:
4th Avenue Historic District, Downtown Birmingham (directions)

The 9th edition of the Sidewalk Moving Picture Festival is underway in downtown Birmingham on a weekend where busy is the word across the Magic City. The nationally recognized independent film festival began with a showing of The Ten and a preview of what was to come for the weekend. Click here to view a slideshow courtesy of Bob Farley that shows some of the highlights of the festival.

Check back occasionally during the weekend for more photos, a few audio interviews and other cool things.

There’s lots to do this weekend around the Magic City. After all that running around, wouldn’t it be nice to just sit back and listen to some tunes? You can do just that at Vulcan Park Sunday afternoon. The first of three Vulcan AfterTunes Concerts will feature the music of Bobby Bare Jr. and The Michael Warren Band. Here’s the info to know from the Vulcan Park Web site: Lawn chairs and blankets are strongly encouraged. No pets or outside alcohol allowed. A cash bar will be available. Smoke-free environment. RAIN OR SHINE! Gates open at 1 p.m. Limited parking, carpooling encouraged. Additional parking across Valley Avenue at Jefferson County Board of Education — shuttle provided. Can’t make it this Sunday? Future concerts are scheduled for Oct. 14 and Oct. 28.

Cost: $8, children 4 and under and Vulcan Park Foundation members free

We got less than we thought we would to participate but am thankful for all that did take part in our Birmingham mayoral election poll. Fifty-two (52) votes were submitted; 4 of them were disqualified either for multiple IP address use or multiple submissions from an email.

Check out the submission link to see the results as they are posted. Expect the complete details results based on these submissions to be posted tomorrow morning.

While this was not a scientific poll by any stretch of the imagination, it does show the opinion of those that currently read The Terminal. That said, remember that this website WILL NOT be endorsing any candidate for the October 9 election.

We just closed the online mayoral poll at 3:03 p.m. We’ll be posting the preliminary results of the poll over on the submission page this afternoon before 4:30 p.m. We will put a link in this post when it becomes active.
