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.

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.

That’s according to the folks at MarketWatch.com as Birmingham was ranked as the 9th best city to do business in the country. Accroding to their site, they:
… measured the concentration of Fortune 1000, S&P 500, Russell 2000 and Forbes 400 private companies in the nation’s top 50 metro areas, as well as concentration of small businesses. The study also measured population growth, unemployment and job growth.
Los Angeles came in at #1. Click here to check out the rest of the list.

Yeah, we just found out ourselves. The piece in the Birmingham Business Journal includes photos taken from the website’s launch party and Happy Hour for a Cause event on August 29th at The Bottletree. Here’s the link to the article.
If you’re a subscriber, you’ll see a few pictures. We’re not, so we’ll just have to live with that one shot of André holding the license plate at the center of this long-term project. Or the one up above.
