Caliente Contest
"Björn Again: The ABBA
Experience" comes to Centennial
Hall tonight. It's a stage show
that goes beyond the music of
the 1970s-'80s super group to
explore the egos and
relationships of the Swedish
foursome - Benny Andersson,
Björn Ulvaeus, Anni-Frid
Lyngstad and Agnetha Fältskog.

The origin of ABBA's name has
two stories: One, they used the
initials of their first names; and
two, the name is a play on a
popular Swedish company
named Abba.

Both are true. The band was
originally named after the
Swedish company, but when
their career was booming
internationally - they went on to
become one of the most
successful international pop acts
ever - they realized no one
outside their native Sweden
would get the name play. So they
held a contest with fans to come
up with a name before settling
on ABBA. They eventually had to
negotiate with the company to
use the name ABBA.

Here's our question: In what
business was the Swedish
company?

Those who answer correctly will
have a chance to win a cookbook.

'Kath & Kim' premieres tonight on NBC

Tucson, Arizona | Published: 10.09.2008
Australia's No. 1 situation comedy, "Kath & Kim," makes the jump to American television with its debut at 7:30 tonight on NBC.
The series follows Kath, a middle-age divorcée whose grown daughter, Kim, moves back in with Mom after leaving her husband.
While the original series takes place in Melbourne, the American version is set in Florida. It stars former "Saturday Night Live" player Molly Shannon as Kath and "Hellboy" starlet Selma Blair as Kim.
Shows such as "Arrested Development" and "Married With Children" have shown us that family dysfunction can be hilarious. We're eager to see how this one plays out.
