The Memphis International Film & Music Festival showcases some of the finest independent films from around the world in categories of features, documentaries, music videos, and more.  And now there's a special opportunity for would-be Memphis film-makers!

Next year's festival, held April 25-28th, will add a new category: "Memphis Rocks."  It will be a catch-all platform to share positive stories, heartfelt moments, and narratives that capture the soul of Memphis. You can show what makes Memphis great, or show what your company, neighborhood, non-profit, or school is doing in our community. And maybe your masterpiece will be played on the silver screen!

Films must be five minutes or less, and there will be five sub-categories for judging: individuals, schools, non-profits, corporations, and a viewers' choice award.  The deadline for submissions is February 28th, 2013.

Every year, yard sale bargain hunters flock to Cordova, Tennessee for the annual Countrywood Neighborhood Sale sponsored by the Countrywood Neighborhood Association.

On Friday, September 22, the huge yard event will draw crowds from all over the Greater Memphis area and from neighboring states.

Last year the sale was a huge success.  More than 200 residents participated

Rain or shine, the participating vendors will sell their almost brand new or slightly used items from furniture to clothing and televisions to motorized vehicles to make a buck.  Not to mention the local economy benefited as people booked hotel rooms for a few days to stay and visit the grand city of Memphis to shop it’s local stores and dine in local restaurants.
