Floyd fans 17 and Beloso’s HR in 11th gives LSU a 4-3 win over Florida in Game 1 of the CWS finals
Pat McEvoy manager of Rocco’s Pizza and home of the Jell-O shot challenge in Ohama, said he along with his staff were thrilled. He said having LSU in the championship round translates into a larger amount of money being spent over the weekend.
“And ultimately the difference it makes in how much money we raise for charity through our little Jell-O Shot Challenge idea is immense,” said McEvoy.
McEvoy said LSU fans definitely make their mark at the College World Series. He’s warned this staff that if they think the past week has been busy, things are about to go up a notch.
“I’m like oh we’re about to get a whole lot of new blood coming up for the championship. There’s going to be some fresh bodies coming up now. Some of the staff, me included are walking around like zombies just in it for so long,” said McEvoy.
And McEvoy said he’s planning on having t-shirts made with the final tally of the Jell-o shot challenge.

“The Producers” Opening Weekend ~ sold out and did not disappoint!!
Laughed so much my face hurt." - MICHELLE
GRAB YOUR SEATS BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE!
DATES & TIMES ::
JUNE 30; JULY 1 || 8 PM
JUNE 25; JULY 2 || 2:30 PM
CLICK HERE TO RESERVE YOUR SEATS
THE PRODUCERS
Directed by EMILY CARMADELLE
Musical Director JESSE WHITE
RATED PG-13
The plot is simple: a down-on-his-luck Broadway producer and his mild-mannered accountant come up with a scheme to produce the most notorious flop in history, thereby bilking their backers (all “little old ladies”) out of millions of dollars. Only one thing goes awry: the show is a smash hit! The antics of Max Bialystock and Leo Bloom as they maneuver their way fecklessly through finding a show (the gloriously offensive “Springtime for Hitler”), hiring a director, raising the money and finally going to prison for their misdeeds is a lesson in broad comic construction. At the core of the insanely funny adventure is a poignant emotional journey of two very different men who become friends.

TODAY'S DAILY QUESTION
What does "munificent" mean?
Bold
Generous
Selfish
Self sufficient
What does "munificent" mean?
Generous
munificent /mjuːˈnɪfɪs(ə)nt/
Definition: (of a gift or sum of money) larger or more generous than is usual or necessary.
Origin: late Middle English: from Latin munificent- ‘presenting gifts’, from munus, mun- ‘gift’ + facere ‘do’.
Example: She was a munificent patron of the arts.
Generous can be considered a synonym for munificent. It means to be liberal in giving or sharing, unselfish, or showing kindness and concern for others. Both words are often used to describe acts of giving, whether it be money, time, or other resources. However, while generous can be used to describe small acts of kindness, munificent emphasizes the extravagance and large scale of the giving. So, while all munificent acts can be considered generous, not all generous acts can be considered munificent.

Which words best complete these example sentences?

On Sunday, June 25, the incomparable Phillip Manuel will provide an Unforgettable Evening in the beautiful BK House Salon with music that crosses genres without missing a beat. The 6 pm concert will feature an assortment of favorites, including songs made famous by Nat King Cole and the Beatles. Manuel will round out the program with songs from his “Love Happened to Me” CD and other beloved picks that have pleased his audiences locally and across the globe. Tickets are $40 ($30 for members) and may be purchased at https://www.bkhouse.org. Light refreshments will be served but guests are encouraged to bring beverages of choice, openers and extra cups. Doors will open at 5:30 pm for the 6 o’clock show.
July 6 will bring a special Evening of Absinthe with journalist and author Marielle Songy, highlighting her book The Absinthe Frappe, and complemented by a sampling of Jade Nouvelle-Orléans Absinthe Supérieure, courtesy of Ted A. Breaux of Jade Liqueurs, LLC.
Songy’s presentation will examine the history of absinthe, its origins, and its influences, culminating in the story of the iconic New Orleans cocktail. The audience will learn how bartender Cayetano Ferrér invented the concoction as she delves into the early days of the drink and its first home, the Old Absinthe House in the Crescent City. She will explore the ban on absinthe in the United States and Europe and the misguided reasoning behind it, all in the context of New Orleans’s response to national Prohibition more broadly. Finally, Songy will discuss the lifting of the restrictions on absinthe in 2007, a move largely spearheaded by New Orleans scientist and master distiller Theodore Breaux, who dispelled long-held notions that the Green Fairy invariably drove its connoisseurs to madness.
This not-to-be-missed program will be held at 6 pm in the BK House Salon, with doors opening at 5:30 pm. Tickets are $10 ($5 for members) and include a specialty crafted absinthe cocktail with light refreshments. Visit https://www.bkhouse.org to reserve your seat.
All events will take place at the Historic BK House & Gardens, 1113 Chartres Street, across from the Old Ursuline Convent. Details about upcoming BK House events and membership information are available at www.bkhouse.org for those who want to support the Museum and take advantage of future programming discounts.

NATIONAL STRAWBERRY PARFAIT DAY | JUNE 25
National Strawberry Parfait Day on June 25th comes around each year during the perfect time – peak strawberry season.
In fact, parfait is French for perfect. The traditional parfait is a dessert of ice cream or frozen custard layered with fruit and whipped cream in a tall stemmed glass. An additional topping of whipped cream garnishes the dessert. Today, we often replace the ice cream with yogurt or pudding and layers of granola.
Strawberries are not only in season during June, but they are also an excellent source of Vitamin C, folic acid, potassium, and fiber. At 55 calories and zero fat per 1 cup, these sweet things hit the spot when snack time is calling! When making parfaits, don’t just reserve them for dessert. If serving them with yogurt and granola, they make a delicious breakfast and snack, too.

On the corner of Chartres and St. Ann Streets is a building steeped in history dating back to 1743 when it was the home of Jean Baptiste Destrehan, the Royal Treasurer of the French Colonies. It was severely damaged in the fire of 1788 and rebuilt, and was later owned by Julien Poydras and Theodore Leveau. In 1916 the building was purchased by Frank Taormina who converted it into a pasta factory and grocery (pictured here in 1939). In 1974 it became a Chart House restaurant and today we know it as Muriel's. This picture reminds us that the French Quarter was first and foremost a neighborhood chock full of immigrants who helped build our great city.

At the bottom left is the old entrance to Metairie Cemetery on the corner. Above that at the top left is Greenwood Cemetery. Running down the center of the image from top to bottom is the extension of City Park Avenue from the terminus at Canal Street to where the train overpass horizontally intersects the photograph.
Also under construction is the Pontchartrain Expressway built on top of the recently filled in New Basin Canal. Just to the right of center is the Half-Way House then the Cypress Grove Cemetery and Charity Hospital Cemetery.
The building at the bottom center used to be an Reith Florist shop that had been at that location since 1916 until 1986 after which it was converted into the Bayou Ridge Café. It is now occupied by a Zea Rotisserie Restaurant & Bar at 5080 Pontchartrain Boulevard.

SUSPENSION OF SERVICE DISCONNECTIONS
Entergy New Orleans does not disconnect on days that the National Weather Service has issued a heat advisory, which is expected to last through June 20, 2023. Residents can call 1-800-ENTERGY to report outages. The Sewerage & Water Board of New Orleans (SWBNO) will also suspend shut offs for delinquent accounts on Friday, June 16 through Monday, June 19 due to the Juneteenth holiday. Please call 52-WATER to report any water or sewer emergencies.
SAFETY TIPS
These hot temperatures can become life-threatening if the proper precautions are not taken. Residents can visit weatherwise.nola.gov to find localized updates on weather conditions when considering outdoor activities. Residents are advised to take the following precautions to prevent health emergencies due to overexposure to extreme heat:
- Take extra precautions if you work or spend time outside
- When possible, reschedule strenuous activities to early morning or evening
- Know the signs and symptoms of heat exhaustion and heat stroke
- Wear lightweight and loose-fitting clothing when possible
- To reduce risk during outdoor work, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration recommends scheduling frequent rest breaks in shaded or air-conditioned environments
- Anyone overcome by heat should be moved to a cool and shaded location. Heat stroke is an emergency! Call 9 1 1
- Children and pets should never be left unattended in a vehicle. Even in 70-degree weather, the interior temperature of a vehicle can increase rapidly to over 100 degrees in just 20 minutes. Cracking a window does not help
- Leaving a child or pet unattended in a vehicle often leads to a life-threatening emergency. Anyone who sees a child or animal unattended in a vehicle is urged to call 9-1-1 immediately

About the Exhibition
In 1776, many colonists made a great leap to a new idea: maybe they could do without monarchy and aristocracy. If they could unite with one another, “the common people” of the colonies might form a more equal society and government. American Democracy: A Great Leap of Faith, a traveling exhibition from the Smithsonian Institution Traveling Exhibition Service, examines the continuing evolution of America’s experiment in a government “of, by, and for the people.” The exhibition will be on view at The Historic New Orleans Collection from June 17, 2023, to October 8, 2023. Admission is free.
Drawn from the permanent exhibition of the same name at the Smithsonian’s National Museum of American History, American Democracy explores the challenges and triumphs that generations of Americans encountered as they sought to create a government based on the sovereignty of the people. It explores the history of citizen participation, debate, and compromise from the nation’s formation to today.
Featuring engaging multimedia experiences, immersive design, and artifacts from the Smithsonian Institution, state historical organizations, and The Historic New Orleans Collection, American Democracy demonstrates that self-government relies on every citizen’s active participation in the quest to form a “more perfect union.” Exhibition sections explore the origins of American democracy, the changing identity of eligible voters, the machinery of democracy, the right to petition and protest beyond the ballot, and the rights and responsibilities of citizens.
American Democracy is sponsored locally by the 2023 Bienville Circle, J.P.Morgan Private Bank, and WDSU-TV.
A companion exhibition, “Yet She Is Advancing”: New Orleans Women and the Right to Vote, 1878–1970, is on view through November 5, 2023. Expanding on a 2020 virtual exhibition on THNOC’s website, the exhibition tells a decades-long story through objects, images, documents, and interactive displays—and through the words of the New Orleans women who for nearly 100 years persisted in their struggle to obtain the vote

June 27- Bootid Meteor Shower Maximum
June’s Bootid meteor shower begins on June 22, but it is expected to reach its peak rate of meteors around 7 PM EDT on June 27. The Bootid meteors should be visible when the constellation Bootes is just above the horizon. The moon will be in its first quarter phase at the shower’s peak, and will set at about 1:30 in the morning, making for minimal light interference later in the night.
June’s Bootid meteor shower was created by the comet 7P/Pons-Winnecke and expected to last until July 2.
The same skygazing rules that apply to pretty much all space-watching activities are key this month: Go to a dark spot away from the lights of a city or town and let the eyes adjust to the darkness for about a half an hour. Then, just sit back and let the summer skies dazzle.

Taste wine like a pro,
BY IAN MCNULTY
Wine tastings go pro at Commander’s Palace
A summer program at Commander’s Palace, 1403 Washington Ave., (504) 899-8221, gives wine lovers a chance to sample a range of wines like a pro.
The events, called CP Sips, turn a portion of the Garden District restaurant into a self-guided tour of offerings from different distributors, and people can order more of the ones they liked best to have at home later. Each includes 40 or so wines, and also cheeses and small tastes from the kitchen.
Dan Davis, the resident “wine guy” at Commander’s Palace, works with seven distributors and local retailer Swirl Wine Bar and Market to make sure wines served at the tasting are available for people to find again.
The June 28 edition has crisp summer choices, the July 26 event is focused on California wines and Aug. 30 brings wines from across the Mediterranean. All are from 5:30 p.m. to 7 p.m.
Tickets at $79, and are available through the reservations page at commanderspalace.com.

Friday Night Wine School, Old World French Winemaking, Meets South Africa's New World Soul
Friday, June 23, 2023, Sold Out
It’s not uncommon for Old World winemakers to venture into New World territory. Burgundy icons have launched projects in Oregon, and super-Tuscan legends have been working the land in Argentina’s Patagonia region. And lately, French winemakers are foraying into South African wine country. Though the climates—and terroirs—may be wildly different, established French vintners are currently creating some of South Africa’s most exciting wines.
Today it goes further than that, as large French wine businesses are beginning to invest heavily in South African wine estates. Why? What are they finding there that you should know too? Well, Dr Edo Heyns, director and head of strategic development for Advini, a French wine company, will be with us on Friday, June 23rd to discuss what this French heritage and modern investment mean for the world of fine wines. He is a winemaker himself, former editor of South Africa’s largest wine magazine, and holds a business Ph.D. from the University of Stellenbosch on innovation in the South African wine industry, specifically focusing on family businesses. He will use tastings of the wines of Le Bonheur and L’Avenir to give his insights into innovation and investment in the world of fine wines. This is a don't miss event...you can join the waitlist here, Old World French Winemaking...
Sips of Summer at Commander’s Palace,
Join us as Beth from Swirl teams up with Wine Guy, Dan Davis from Commander’s Palace, along with SEVEN local wine distributors, as they curate over 40 exciting wines to taste, and Chef Meg Bickford and the CP culinary team will serve up delicious gourmet bites. The event will also feature a cocktail mixer station featuring spirits from local distiller, Porchjam Distillery.
Beth and the crew from Swirl will be on hand to help you stock up for summer and will be taking retail orders for any of the wines that you taste and just cannot live without! Here are the dates and themes, and you can go here to sign up, Sips of Summer
JUNE 28: Red, White and…Rosé - perfect summer sippers from our favorite wine regions, just in time for your 4th of July picnics!
JULY 26: California Dreaming - Dreamy Selections from the Sunshine State
AUGUST 30: Coast to Coast, wines from the Mediterranean

Everyone is welcome, we hope we see you!
Friday Night Wine School, The Lighter Side of Spain
Friday, June 30, 2023 New
If you are looking for the perfect wines to bring to your 4th of July barbecues and picnics, tonight's tasting will inspire you to bring some fresh, new wines to share with your family and friends. Even though Spain is most known for its powerful age-worthy red wines, there is a much lighter, more summer-friendly, side to Spain. With almost 5000 miles of coastline, the country produces a treasure trove sea inspired whites like Albarino, an aromatic wine with crisp acidity, vibrant citrus flavors, and notes of stone fruits; Godello, known for its elegance and versatility; Hondarrabi Zuri, light-bodied with a vibrant and zesty character, making them perfect for warm weather and pairing with seafood -and many more. And even red grapes like Garnacha, Tempranillo, Mencia and Monastrell in the right hands can all produce wines with lower tannins, lighter body, and vibrant fruit. Rebeca Pinhas has a passion for Spanish wines and always it always shows in her presentation. We'll bring you some great new wines to taste tonight and hope you'll join us for this fun and informative event! You can get your tickets here, The Lighter Side of Spain
Friday Night Wine School - Provence, So Much More than Rosé
Friday, July 28, 2023, New
Just back from my most recent trip to Provence, I'm always inspired to educate people on the many wine treasures the region has to offer. Provence has the quintessential Mediterranean climate - warm sunny days followed by cool nights with very little rain during the summer months. Mistral winds and sea breezes keep the humidity level to an almost arid dryness making it the ideal climate for grape growing. While everyone knows Provence for its lovely rosé, the refreshing whites and full-bodied reds are often overlooked. Tonight we'll feature wines from some of our favorite producers on the Cote d'Azur including one that we visited on our recent trip. Use this link to sign up for the event, Provence

The 5th Annual P.O.W.E.R. Plates is this July!
Launched in 2019, P.O.W.E.R. Plates is a month-long celebration of women in hospitality produced by Fidelity Bank's P.OW.E.R. Program. P.O.W.E.R. Plates' goal is to raise awareness of, and drive business to, women-led restaurants in the New Orleans & Baton Rouge region. Women-led restaurants, bars, hotels and Fidelity Bank P.O.W.E.R. members from across the region can participate to benefit the Louisiana Hospitality Foundation (LHF) which supports Louisiana's hospitality industry workers in crisis through emergency relief funding. That means your participation is helping someone pay keep the lights on and a roof over their heads.
P.O.W.E.R. Plates 2022 was a great success, raising $21,000 for the New Orleans & Baton Rouge Hospitality Industry. All monies raised in each area stay in the Crisis Grant Fund of that area.
Here's how to help:
- Register your business for the fundraiser & marketing campaign here - there is no fee!
- Select the POWERful woman that will be included in the campaign - that maybe YOU or an employee of your choice.
- Choose an item, dish or drink that you can donate $1 from each time it sells in July. Proceeds directly benefit the Louisiana Hospitality Foundation and Fidelity Bank will match total campaign donations up to $2500!

Monday, July 10, 7 pm – Alfred, Lord Tennyson, Robert Browning, and the Victorian Interest in Psychology
This lecture will cover the English Victorian poets Alfred, Lord Tennyson and Robert Browning and how some of their most famous poems demonstrate an increasing fascination with the human psyche during the 19th century. Attendees will explore how Tennyson's and Browning's Victorian-era works address how loss, grief, depression, and even sociopathy might manifest in the minds of their poetic speakers.
Monday, August 21, 7 pm - Elizabeth Barrett Browning, Christina Rossetti, and the English Sonnet Tradition
This lecture will cover the English Victorian poets Elizabeth Barrett Browning and Christina Rossetti and their contributions to the English sonnet tradition. Attendees will explore how Barrett Browning's Sonnets from the Portuguese and Rossetti's Monna Innominata are groundbreaking sonnet sequences which offer women's voices responding to and reimagining the sonnet traditions named for Petrarch and Shakespeare.
Dr. Cognevich has a master's in English literature from the University of New Orleans and a doctoral degree in English literature from Louisiana State University. She taught English literature and writing for more than a decade. Her scholarly specialties include Romantic and Victorian poetry. Her doctoral thesis focused on the late-18th-century British sonnet revival and poet Charlotte Smith, who was one of William Wordsworth's early inspirations.

BREES DREAM FOUNDATION ANNOUNCES NOLA PICKLEBALL FEST
Annual event to be held at the New Orleans Ernest N. Morial Convention Center to serve as a major fundraiser for the Brees Dream Foundation
Brittany and Drew Brees announced today the creation of The NOLA Pickleball Fest, an annual event benefiting the Brees Dream Foundation. The inaugural event will be held August 10-13, 2023, at the New Orleans Ernest N. Morial Convention Center. Brees and the staff of the Brees Dream Foundation have been working closely with local tourism leaders at the Greater New Orleans Sports Foundation, New Orleans Ernest N. Morial Convention Center, and New Orleans & Company, as well as national companies Joola and The Kitchen, to organize all aspects of the event.
“Brittany and I could not be more excited to bring the first annual NOLA Pickleball Fest to New Orleans,” says Drew Brees. Combining one of the fastest growing and most enjoyable sports alongside a city that knows how to host a party will make this one of the premier events of the summer. It will be great food, music, events, and plenty of pickleball all inside the Convention Center, as we crown amateur champions and raise proceeds for the Brees Dream Foundation that will go towards our ongoing efforts in New Orleans.”
The NOLA Pickleball Fest (“The NOLA”) benefitting the Brees Dream Foundation is a unique, festival-style pickleball tournament featuring 24 tournament quality PickleRoll courts, live music, a celebrity exhibition match featuring Drew Brees, VIP experiences and much more. The NOLA will have three divisions of round robin play: women’s doubles, men’s doubles, and mixed doubles for skill levels 3.0, 3.5, 4.0, 4.5, and 5.0+. There are two brackets to compete in: Open and 40 yrs. old and over. Featured matches will be played on a center court with grandstand seating as well as Kern Studio Mardi Gras floats for VIP viewing. Join us for an unforgettable experience and the ultimate pickleball party. To sign up or for more information, visit www.drewbrees.com.
“As pickleball participation continues to skyrocket, we’re honored and excited to be working with Drew and his team to create an annual pickleball festival that creates tourism for a higher purpose,” said Jay Cicero, President/CEO of the Sports Foundation. “The Brees Dream Foundation will distribute funds raised from the event to partner charitable organizations along the Gulf Coast. Given the combination of the sport’s popularity and charitable aspect of NOLA Pickleball Fest, it will surely be a hit among amateur and seasoned Pickleball players alike.”
“When it comes to sports, New Orleans is known for hosting iconic championship moments. With our singular, authentic culture and welcoming people, 26,0000 hotel rooms within two miles of the New Orleans Ernest N. Morial Convention Center, and unmatched hospitality, New Orleans is truly Built to Host,” said Walter J. Leger III, President & CEO of New Orleans & Company, the official destination sales, and marketing organization for the New Orleans tourism industry. “Crowds have always been drawn to New Orleans for sporting events of all types and sizes and now it is an honor to add the annual NOLA Pickleball Fest. This event will not only provide a critical summertime tourism boost for the New Orleans economy, but also help the entire community served by the Brees Dream Foundation.”
“The New Orleans Ernest N. Morial Convention Center is delighted to welcome the inaugural NOLA Pickleball Fest to New Orleans this August,” said Convention Center President Michael J. Sawaya. “Our involvement with NOLA Pickleball supports our mission to host events that positively impact the local economy. With the passion of the Brees Dream Foundation and the diligent support of local tourism leaders, there is no doubt the tournament will grow into the best tournament in the nation and benefit our community for years to come.”
Pickleball originated in the Pacific Northwest in the 1960s and combines elements of tennis, badminton, and ping-pong. It is the fastest-growing sport in the United States with annual increases of millions of people playing, according to a 2023 participation report by the Association of Pickleball Professionals.
Registration for the tournament opens in early June. To register to play, visit www.drewbrees.com. To volunteer, visit www.gnosports.com/volunteer.
