In other news:

- It's a good day to buy some groceries. Five percent of the net proceeds from today's sales at Whole Foods (on Poplar) will go to Habitat for Hope.

- Congratulations to the Memphis Redbirds! They've made it to the Pacific Coast League Finals. All five of their final games will be played in Memphis at Autozone Park. If you missed the Redbirds in the regular season, head over to the park, get some cheap seats on the bluff and be prepared to be impressed.
