Monty Python’s Spamalot, the infectious Broadway musical, is coming to The Centre on May 15 at 7:30 p.m.

“Lovingly ripped off from” the internationally famous 1975 motion picture, Monty Python and the Holy Grail, Monty Python’s Spamalot tells the legendary tale of King Arthur, his Knights of the Round Table, and their quest for the Holy Grail.

There’s just something about spring that puts a little extra bounce in your giddy-up. The combination of sunshine, green grass, and flowers in bloom help to re-energize our focus. At least for a time, we gladly bid farewell to heavy sweaters, winter coats, and, of course, our blanket with sleeves.

As the early morning sunlight peaks through swaying curtains, highlighting microscopic specs of sparkling dust, the evidence is real, the task is at hand and unfortunately, for many allergy sufferers, the sneezing battle begins.

Spring CleaningFEVER!

Spring has sprung and with it comes the good, the bad and, yes, the ugly. The annual spring cleaning ritual is about to commence, as it’s time to break out the heavy hitting cleaning supplies. Allergy sufferers, in particular, will appreciate the advances made in household cleaning technologies including hypoallergenic vacuum cleaners, air purifiers that remove allergens from the air and green technology items such as steam mops that clean without chemicals.

A few helpful hints that are sure to get those spring cleaning juices flowing include: •Thoroughlycleanunderstoves,refrigerators,washersanddryers•Eliminatedustcollectingclutter•Cleanwindows•Vacuumcarpeting•Dusteverything•Change/cleanfurnace/air-conditioningfilters once a month•Cleanorreplacefrontdoormatstominimize trackingallergens/dirtindoors•Washwalls,cabinetsandbaseboards•Removedustfromceilingfansandlightfixtures•Cleancornersoftub/showers,sinksandall moldysurfaces•Dustpictures,mirrors,booksandknickknacks

Scientific research has determined that the air within our homes may be more polluted than the air outside. Pollutants are contributing factors for allergies and related illnesses; therefore it is beneficial to recognize common allergy triggers such as: •Dustmites•Petdander•Dust•Mold•Pollen•Cleaningproductchemicals•Tobaccosmoke•Aerosols•Perfumes

Spring cleaning without proper supplies can be frustrating. You’re psyched and ready to tackle the cobwebs, dust and dirt; the last thing you need is to have your Mo-Jo interrupted by realizing you forgot to pick up a necessary cleaning staple. Here is a checklist of supplies and household appliances you will need to ensure that you can continue whistling while you work. •Hypoallergenicvacuumcleanerwithattachments•Steammop•Broom,dustpan•Microfiberdustcloths•Cleaners(allpurpose,oven,tub/shower,toiletbowl)•Trashcan,liners•Sponges•Papertowels•Rubbergloves•Airpurifiertokeepdustout

$175,000 fOR A bOTTLE of WHISky? no, it isn’t an extra large bottle big enough for your next party. The size of this bottle is the normal 750 ml., but the precious liquid inside certainly is beyond the norm. I’m looking at the bottle of The Dalmore Trinitas, the man who purchased it and the Master Distiller who blended it. We’re all in Las Vegas at The Encore to taste the rarest and most unique whiskies in the world at the inaugural nth Show. I’m also here because I have a score to settle in a drinking contest with someone.

“Peopleaskme,‘Isthisbottlereallyworth175,000dollars?’Noitisn’t.Itispriceless,”explainsTheDalmoreMaster Distiller Richard Paterson as he holdsthebottleinfrontofme.“Theflavorsandexperiencearebeyondthatandopenupawhole newworld.” Containingspiritdatingfrom1868,1878,1926and1939,TheDalmore Trinitas is a rare 64 year old singlemaltandonlythreebottlesexistintheworld.

bluesnotesthe 32nd Blues Music awards: May 5, 2011The 32nd Blues Music Awards are set for Thursday, May 5, 2011, in Memphis, Tennessee. Whereas the International Blues Challenge is the world’s largest battle of the bands, the Blues Foundation’s other annual crown jewel, “The BMA’s,” could easily be considered a family reunion of the genre’s greatest performers. It’s also the place where fans can witness rare collaborations on stage!

In terms of what to expect, if the 2011 Grammys are any indication, Buddy Guy’s Living Proof should do very well. Buddy took home the Grammy for Best Contemporary Blues Album for Living Proof and is nominated for five BMA’s in all (Entertainer of the Year, Album of the Year, Song of the Year, Contemporary Blues Album of the Year, and Contemporary Blues Male Artist of the Year).
